Thank you for the fantastic replies, I totally appreciate it.

Thank you very much. Your answer is along the lines of what I am looking for. However, the SiO2 was just a starting point. Besides remembering temperatures from your experience, would you know of a place where this information is given for a wide variety of compounds? There is also one thing I...

Hey Guys, I am looking for information related to the dehydration temperatures of hydrated compounds, particularly silica compounds. For research I am working on, we are trying to figure out at what temperature will the water molecules in a certain compound begin to leave the structure...

You have no idea how much I appreciate this response. Thank you very much!

Homework Statement Length of rod = 1 Initial Conditions: u(x,0)=sin(πx) Boundary conditions: u(0,t)=0 and u(1,t)=5. Alright I am supposed to find the temperature at all times, but I am curious about the setup of the problem itself. When x = 1, the boundary condition says...

Alright Muphrid I think I get what your saying, thank you.

Alright guys I appreciate the replies, but there is something that I feel I need to elaborate on. I am not disputing the fact the mathematics of the divergence, but instead the diagramming of the divergence. I have attached a picture I drew to illustrate my point. Here there is a green...

Hi all I basically have two questions that are very closely related to each other about divergence, specifically the divergence of a vector function 1/r2\widehat{r} First, I will be referencing pages 17, 18, and 45 from the 3rd edition of Intro to Electrodynamics. The first question...

Yes! I completely see what you are talking about now. I had totally forgotten to check to see if the velocity component was directed parallel to the position. Thanks for the help! And thanks Chiro for taking the time to try to help me, but Muphrid gave me the insight I needed. Sorry!

In the vector solution attempt, the velocity I found is directed radially toward Car A if it were at the orgin. Am i misinterpreting your response incorrectly?

Hi all! I was looking through my old calculus book and was looking at a problem on related rates. I looked at the problem that was in the related rates section and I saw what was an easier way of doing it. The problem was this: Car A is traveling west at 50 mi/hr and Car B is traveling north...

I finally understand the situation. Thanks for the great explanation!

In solving the free body diagram for the top mass, I stated in the introduction that I was assuming an applied force of less than the static friction maximum. In this case, the force of static friction takes on the same magnitude as the applied force. This leaves the top block with no net force...

Good afternoon! 1. The Setup One block of Mass M2 is resting on top of a frictionless surface. Another block, M1, is resting on top of the of the first block. There does exist a coefficient between these two blocks, μ. 2. What happens to the bottom block when a force less than μN is...
