    What Determines the Oscillation Frequency of a Billiard Ball on a Drum?

    Hi, i'm trying to do this problem: ------------------------------------------------------------------- A tympani drum has a billiard ball of mass m resting in the middle. The billiard ball is displaced only vertically, very slightly from its equilibrium, and will oscillate vertically...

    Solving the Elliptical Integral Using Stoke's Theorem

    I'm trying to solve this problem: Compute \oint_c(y+z)dx + (z-x)dy + (x-y)dz using Stoke's theorem, where c is the ellipse x(t) = asin^2t, \ y(t) = 2asintcost, z(t) = acos^2t, 0\leq t \leq \pi The version of stoke's theorem I learned is: \int_c \overrightarrow{F} \cdot...

    Volume of a Cone in n-Dimensions: Problem & Solution

    hi, thanks for the response. just to clarify, when it says the "volume of its cross section at h=0 is V_o , is it really referring to the "area" of the cross section? (eg. if we're talking about 3 dimensions)? its sort of hard to visualize. i still don't get how to do b). so if n=1...

    Volume of a Cone in n-Dimensions: Problem & Solution

    Can someone help me with this problem?: We will define a cone in n-dimensions as a figure with a cross - section along its height X_n that has a constant shape, but each of its dimensions is shrunk linearly to 0. a)let D be a cone in R^n with height h (ie. X_n \epsilon...
