Well I'm not a Phd or anything but it looks like its got too many arbitrary constants in it to be anything earth-shattering. Just my 2 cents though I am still an undergrad physics major.

*raises hand* speed is the absolute value of the velocity!

How viable is a chemical engineering degree for someone looking to go into petroleum engineering exactly... generally speaking if one knew that they wanted to go into petroleum engineering would it be worth relocating to get that specific degree, or would you most likely do just as well with a...

well if f'(x) is never above the x-axis then the slope is never negative, so there could only be one solution for f(x)=0 right? For g(x)=0 if there are two solutions then one solution would have to be for when x<0 and x>0 since the slope only changes it's sign after the graph crosses the...

Oh wow I never thought if it that way, that is awesome. I think that just cleared up a LOT of ambiguity I had about the whole d?/d? notation system thing, which to be honest I never really understood that well to begin with.

for x(sqrt[x^2+7]) you can also use simple substitution where u=(x^2+7) and du=2x, which makes it into the integral of (1/2)(u)^(1/2)du, which gives you (1/3)(x^2+7)^(3/2)

40 hours a week I have a lot of time to study at work though so it's really not that bad.

b/a will always be less than one because a is bigger than b. a has to be bigger than b because otherwise the parabola will become too wide to intersect with the circle relative to how low on the y-axis its vertex is. It will always intersect the y-axis under the origin because of the...
