    Transitive Closure of Binary Relation T on A={0,1,2,3}

    I guess since there's 4 pairs in T^t and 4 pairs in A, we'd need 16 pairs to have full closure. thanks

    Transitive Closure of Binary Relation T on A={0,1,2,3}

    Well I thought there are 12 elements in Tt. And 16 in A x A. But I guess if we add (0,0),(1,1),(2,2),(3,3) then Tt would have 16 elements as well?

    Transitive Closure of Binary Relation T on A={0,1,2,3}

    Sorry, meant 12 elements in Tt I still don't follow. Why would {0,3} and {3,0} be the same? OK By defintion: The transitive closure of T is the binary relation Tt on A that satisfies the following three properties: 1. Tt is transitive. 2. T is a subset of Tt. 3. If S is any other transitive...

    Transitive Closure of Binary Relation T on A={0,1,2,3}

    4 pairs in A. So 8 in Tt? I still fail to follow...

    Transitive Closure of Binary Relation T on A={0,1,2,3}

    Homework Statement T is a binary relation defined on A = {0, 1, 2, 3}. Let T = {(0,2), (1,0), (2,3), (3,1)} Find T^t, the transitive closure of T.The Attempt at a Solution I'm going to skip using commas cause it takes to long 02 23 = 03 31 10 = 30 23 31 = 21 10 02 = 12 12 23 = 13 02 21 = 01...

    Double Tower of Hanoi Puzzle: Minimum Moves & Recurrence Relation

    Sorry, cleaned up my notation. Got myself mixed up with another problem when I was writing up the problem. EDITED. And I understand now. I thought by 2n, we had 2n different sizes. I should have read the instructions better. so assuming we start on the leftmost peg... a1 = 2 (Move first...

    Double Tower of Hanoi Puzzle: Minimum Moves & Recurrence Relation

    Well a1 = 3 because When n is 1, we have 2 discs. There are 3 moves to get the discs to the other peg (1,2,1) And I have problems trying to figure the the recurrence relation, not sure how to find it from the information we are given.

    Double Tower of Hanoi Puzzle: Minimum Moves & Recurrence Relation

    The double tower of Hanoi puzzle contains 2n discs. There are n different sizes, two of each size. Initially one of the poles contains all the disks placed on top of each other in decreasing size. Discs of the same size are identical. You are allowed to place discs of the same size on top of...

    What is the Maximum Kinetic Energy of an Object Constrained by a Cord?

    (16*radius*mass)^.5 = v But this leaves us with 2 unknown variables (mass and velocity)...

    Velocity of a cork from a toy gun

    1/2 k 0.05^2 = 1/2 k 0.01^2 + 1/2 m v^2 V = (2/m*(1/2*10*.052 - 1/2 * 10 * 0.012 ))1/2 V = 2 Thanks :)

    Velocity of a cork from a toy gun

    Let me see if I'm reading this right. The velocity from the spring is v = 2.04 m/s. So we could say that 1/5 of the velocity from the spring would be .2*2.04 = .408 And 2.04-.408 = 1.63, so the velocity is 1.63
