Creating Redox Table: Identifying Oxidizing/Reducing Agents
I'm working on a chemistry assignment that involves creating redox tables. The explanation in the textbook isn't a very good one and I can't find my answer through google either :mad: Here's the problem: The following equations represent spontaneous reactions. From this evidence, set up a...- Alain12345

Optimum values and w/ chain rule
A boat leaves dock at 2:00 PM, heading west at 15 km/h. Another boat heads south at 12 km/h and reaches the same dock at 3:00 PM. When were the boats closest to each other? I've solved other problems similar to this one, but I can't seem to figure this one out. I'm not sure what I have to do...- Alain12345

When is a particle speeding up or slowing down?
I need help with a question asking if the particle is speeding up or slowing down. A particle moves on a vericle line. It's position, s, in metres at t seconds is given by s(t)= t^3-9t^2+24t a) determine the velocity and acceleration functions I got v(t)= 3t^2-18t+24 and a(t)= 6t-18 b)...- Alain12345

Finding limits with absolute values
I need help finding limits. I know it's pretty simple most of the time... I know that for example if the lim x--> 3 of x-3, you just plug 3 for x... what do I do if it's the absolute value of x-3? I know you guys like to see that I've tried to solve the problem, but there's not much I can...- Alain12345

How Do You Find the Vertex and Axis of Symmetry in a Parabola Equation?
If I am given (y-2)2= 4 (x-3), how would I find the vertex, equation of the axis of symmetry, and the direction of the opening? I'm guessing that I have to use PF=PD, but it's confusing because it looks different from other things that I have done involving PF=PD. Thanks.- Alain12345

Did I Calculate the Correct Angle for TIR in a Glass Prism?
I completed a question about TIR in a glass prism, and I was wondering if someone can tell me if I got it right. Thanks "Less" and "more" refer to the less dense medium and more dense medium, and the red line is the normal. http://img145.imageshack.us/img145/7061/tirquestion0mi.png...- Alain12345
