I think math is like any other science subject. Yes, there are people that will never understand physics or biology. There are some people that are geniuses when it comes to physics and biology, and there are many people that just need to find some motivation and work at it. Do I think there is...
I'm more than aware that Putnam is extremely difficult. I've always wanted to take it, and my friend and decided to take the class together. We'll see how it pans out. Thanks for the advice guys. Guess I'll just give it a 100%, and if it is too much for me personally I'll just take less classes...
I suppose I should be more specific. How bad is the stress level going to be? I do have some amount of a disability, and I normally try to limit the amount of chaos in my life to help with that. I was also told by one professor that I was biting off quite a lot, so I guess I just wanted to make...
I'm taking Calculus 3, differential equations, linear algebra, physics 3, and a putnam exam preparation class (self study under an adivsor). I will be expected to take the Putnam this December. I could take Computer Programing I instead of one of the math classes and the Putnam class. Is this...
I personally avoid cramming, all nighters, and et cetera. If I have math test the next day and I'm too tired to study, I go to bed and wake up early in the morning to study. As a general rule, I always study ahead of time to avoid the chaos of changing my sleeping schedule. I'm prone to forget...
In my university physics 3 is special relativity among other things related to special relativity. My calc teacher makes a lot of time for theory even though it is only calculus 2, and I do enjoy it. She has told me she would like me to be a math major. I am still open to both majors though.
I'm in the middle of physics 2, and I'm taking calculus 2 at the same time. I thought I'd find physics interesting like used to in high school, but I find myself kinda bored and not really caring anymore. I love doing math, and I am quite good at it. I have gotten 100 percent on my last two...
Homework Statement
The radius of Mercury (from the center to just above the atmosphere) is 2440 km (2440103 m), and its mass is 0.31024 kg. An object is launched straight up from just above the atmosphere of Mercury.
(a) What initial speed is needed so that when the object is far from Mercury...
I'm working a bachelors in physics. I signed up for 16 credits. I five credit Calculus Class, a 5 credit physics class, a 3 credit English class, and a 3 credit German class. I'm involved in a lot of things outside of school mostly volunteer, but I don't have a paying job. Am I taking on too much?
I am an undergraduate physics student, and it is required at my school to take and pass a 200 level course in a foreign language. I need to start taking a foreign language either this summer or fall. It will take at least four semesters to finish with my language requirement. My options are as...
