Undergrad Equation of the tangent line in the direction of a vector
I am having issues figuring out how to do the "in the direction of the vector" part of my problem I have found the equation of the tangent line but i do not know how to the the next part. My question asks: Find the equation of the tangent line to the surface defined by the function f(x,y) =...- alex steve

Entropy of the distribution as a function of time
I am having an issue with finding the entropy in my program. I was asked to the find the entropy of the distribution as a function of time but i do not know where to start with entropy. I understand entropy but putting it in my program is where I am stuck Here is my code: # -*- coding: utf-8...- alex steve

How to find KE and PE without mass
I am working on Computational physics homework and it asks to find the kinetic and potential energy of a simple pendulum. My only issue is that i don't know how to solve it without mass. It gives me : theta (pendulum angle) omega (pendulum angular Velocity) t (time) length (length of string)...- alex steve

Velocity as a function of time -- Terminal Velocity
I do not need to know about Euler's method right now . I just need help on figuring out the v(t) equation which is the first step of this problem. I will have to code The euler's method later on.- alex steve
