    Find probability of certain event, total probability theorem

    Homework Statement Suppose you're at a college campus. 3/4 of the people on the campus are students or professors from that college, and the rest 1/4 aren't. When asked a question, students and professors from that college will give you a correct answer every time, and those that aren't from...

    Determine resonant frequency of an AC voltage source

    The voltage of the resistor? And if yes, what with it? EDIT: Will the voltage across the resistor in a resonant AC RLC circuit be equal to the voltage of the source?

    Does the Limit of sin(n*alpha) as n Approaches Infinity Diverge?

    Homework Statement Show that lim n->inf sin(n*alpha), 0 < alpha < pi, diverges. Homework Equations lim n-> inf sin(n) diverges The Attempt at a Solution I know how to solve this for a constant value of alpha (i.e pi/3), but am unaware of solving this one, where alpha may vary. I know that...

    Electric charge in parallel plate capacitor with 2 parallel dielectrics

    Homework Statement My question is: If we have a parallel plate capacitor with 2 parallel dielectrics both taking A/2 of the complete surface, is the total electric charge equal to sum of the electrical charges in the first dielectric and the second dielectric, i.e is qtotal=q1+q2=σ1*A/2+σ2*A/2...

    Find the acceleration of a pulley system

    I just did some more research in literature I have on physics. It says the tension would be the same in all 3 places of the pulley system, because the rope and pulley are light enough to be disregarded.
