Homework Statement
Ok so I have been given a diagram which if it worked should be attached. I am having a fair bit of trouble understanding it. Now I am aware that there is both electrical and conventional currents but I am confused as to whether this is electrical or conventional. I have been...
Hmm does that mean, I am correct? It is strange because every question that involves rectangles has been giving me trouble because I always seem to get an answer where the sides are equal! If I am correct in all of these cases then I have been tressing for nothing! Also may I ask you to assist...
Homework Statement
A square-based rectangular prism has a total surface area of 54cm^2. Determine the side lengths if the volume is a maximum and hence find the volume.
I have done a number of these and I am getting really annoyed because I always get all the sides being equal no matter...
Yeah sorry, I knew that but I was just rushing to write this down. Ok I will try that. Now say a different situation comes up say it was : (1-sinx)/(1+sinx)=(1-cosx)/(1+cos). Not sure if that is doable but something along those lines like instead of cot and tan it was cos or sin? what would i do...
Homework Statement
Prove that:
(1-tanθ)/(1+tanθ)=(cotθ-1)/(cotθ+1)
Homework Equations
Trig Identities:
tanθ= sinθ/cosθ
cotθ= cosθ/sinθ
1+tanθ=secθ
1+cotθ=cosecθ
The Attempt at a Solution
These sorts of equations are coming up a lot and I am having trouble understanding...
I have been doing some thinking about quasars and have been wondering. Are we able to sue the redshift of a quasar to find out the distance of a galaxy?
If we know the redshift at a galaxy can't we just use Vrecession= (c*(λ-λo))/(λo), then substitute this value into Vrecession=Hubble's...
Homework Statement
Simplify the following:
sin(b)/cos(b) + cos(b)/sin(b)
Homework Equations
Trigonometric identities
The Attempt at a Solution
Ok so i have no clue how to do this,I keep trying but can't seem to get the right answer, I have tried to do this:
sin(b)/cos(b) +...
Hmm ok then. that is actually sounding good. So if I did this, what could my thesis be? and then some arguments to back it up? At first I disregarded that option because I didn't actually know what it would entail. My main concern is the physics behind it. I need to be able to understand it haha...
Hey guys,
I am currently in year 12 and have been asked to develop a thesis on cosmology for an Extended research task (ERT) and I am bewildered. Nothing is coming to mind at the moment and I am struggling. I have no idea what to do mine on. the teacher gave us a list of topics that we might...
