    Graduate Finite Fourier Transform on a 3d wave

    Finite Fourier Transform on a 2d wave How does the finite Fourier transform work exactly? The transform of f(x) is \widetilde{f}(\lambda_{n}) =\int^{L}_{0} f(x) X_{n} dx If I had a 3d wave equation pde and I applied Finite Fourier transform on the pde for z(x,y,t)=X(x)Y(y)T(t)...

    Proof using f(x1,y1)-f(x0,y0)=fx(x*,y*)(x1-x0)+fy(x*,y*)(y1-y0)

    [b]1. Homework Statement [/prove f(x1,y1)-f(x0,y0)=fx(x*,y*)(x1-x0)+fy(x*,y*)(y1-y0) prove there exists a point (x*,y*) if fx and fy are all continuous on a circular region and contain A(x0,y0) and B(x1,y1) Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution I'm thinking mean value theorem...

    Undergrad How do you tell what a vector space will look like from it's spanning set.

    I know that, and it's not really my question unless I misunderstand the applications of what you just said. My question pertains to the visible nature of it.

    Undergrad How do you tell what a vector space will look like from it's spanning set.

    I'm having a hard time visualising them. How do you plot vector fields How do you plot spanning sets? How do you tell if something spans a plane, 3d, a line or more dimensions.

    Undergrad What Does (\frac{\partial z}{\partial x})y Indicate?

    (\frac{\partial z}{\partial x})y the small y, what does it mean. the context this is used in is F(x,y,z) where each variable is a function of the other 2 variables.

    Volume under curve z=1-x^2-2y^2

    Homework Statement z=1-x^2-2y^2 find volume under curve bounded by the xy plane. is the answer sheet wrong? (see below) why am i struggling so much with this?! how do i do it? Homework Equations according to other answer sheet, it is pi/sqrt 2 The Attempt at a Solution i did...

    How can I prove that v and w are equal if v + x = w + x?

    Homework Statement prove 0u=0 where u is in the vector space. Homework Equations the 10 various axioms for addition and scalar multiplication. The Attempt at a Solution pretty much just (u+-u)u=0 or (1-1)u=0 1u+-1u=0 and then i get stuck. i can prove that -1u=-u but that...

    Show its not a group for # where a#b=a+b-ab in the set of all real numbers

    Homework Statement In set theory, i have a two part question, the first is showing that the system S={set of all real numbers( \Re )}, #} where a#b=a+b-ab we have to show that it's not a group. and then find what c is so that the system = { \Re \cap\overline{c}, # } is a group.Homework...

    3-10 points why you believe in the theory of evolution and big bang

    Can you give me 3-10 points why you believe in the theory of evolution and/or the big bang? this is independent of any other theories. I'd like it numbered. and just brief points, like a topic and brief explanation of why this makes you believe evolution and/or the big bang to be true. I'll...

    Undergrad What is 3-Digit Floating Point Arithmetic and How Does It Function?

    the context was talking about floating point numbers and catastrophic cancellation in the quadratic equation. it said using 3 digit arithmetic: *subs in some numbers, 0.2, 100.9 etc into the quad equation and at the end rounds the entire number to 3 digits* am i right in assuming that...

    Undergrad What is 3-Digit Floating Point Arithmetic and How Does It Function?

    what is 3(or i, where i=1,2,3,4...∞) digit arithmetic? is it just working with 3 decimals or 3 significant figures? or is it base 3 arithmetic?
