gen x replied to the thread High School I don't understand the Michelson–Morley experiment.But today we know that Einstein theory dont work at big and micro scale, inside black hole and in quantum mechanics, we must invent dark... -
gen x replied to the thread High School I don't understand the Michelson–Morley experiment.If source is accelerating toward you, light will comes to you again at speed c? Who know what they actually are? They are just math... -
gen x replied to the thread High School I don't understand the Michelson–Morley experiment.I just want to say that is perfectly clear if you measure light speed from earth frame you will always get same speed. If they assumed... -
gen x posted the thread High School I don't understand the Michelson–Morley experiment in Special and General Relativity.I don't understand why people in Michelson-Morley experiment expect that light speed in direction in Earth motion would be light speed +... -

Because you cannot "just simplify" unless you specifically exclude ##x=2## at which point, as you have discovered, the function is... -

The two functions are identical except at the point (2, 4). The graph of ##f(x) = \frac{x^2 - 4}{x - 2}## can be thought of as a... -

An important attribute of any function is its domain. The difference between the two functions in the OP is that, because of the... -
gen x replied to the thread High School Why simplifying this function generates different outputs for same input?.OK thanks for answer, I always thought that simplify function doesn't change absolute nothing.. -
gen x posted the thread High School Why simplifying this function generates different outputs for same input? in General Math.This function ##f(x) = \frac{x^2 - 4}{x - 2}## when simplify become ##f(x) = x + 2## . If I enter ##x=2## in the first expression I... -

gen x replied to the thread Absolute versus relative grading for STEM: fairness and student motivation.Yes that make sense, but you can still get them very hard exam with absolute grading. In my country at engineering uni best grade get... -

From my experience, there is always a distribution of talents and abilities in every class. I never had a class with only bad students... -
gen x replied to the thread Absolute versus relative grading for STEM: fairness and student motivation.What do you think why some uni (all in USA) use curve grading? -
gen x replied to the thread Absolute versus relative grading for STEM: fairness and student motivation.Yes physics/engineering, how good are students in class, one class can be bad, other very god etc -
