    Linear Combinations: Solving for 4th Vector with 3 Vectors

    Hi If i have 3 4x1 matrices and i want to check if i can express a 4th matrix as the linear combination of the first 3. my 3 vectors: 1 7 -2 4 10 1 2 -4 5 -3 -1 -4 can this vector be expressed a linear combination of the first...

    Explaining Faraday's Law: Why ε=2∅/Δt?

    Hi Could someone explain why ε=Δ∅/Δt becomes 2∅/Δt?? i don't see how the change in magnetic flux is 2∅.

    Magnetic field at center of half square

    Hi, I am having some trouble understanding the formula for the magnetic field for a straight wire. The equation is: B = (μ/4∏)(I/R)(sinθ2 - sinθ1) the picture looks like this: ...___ __| . |____ with the current coming in from the left. To find the magnetic field at the point (middle)...

    How to Prove Gauss' Law for a Cube with a Central Point Charge?

    Ok so one of the problems says its Q/6e0 how did they arrive at this?

    How to Prove Gauss' Law for a Cube with a Central Point Charge?

    So I was doing some practice problems and one of them asked for the flux through one side of a cube that has a point charge(Q) at its center, it seems intuitive that it would be 1/6 of the charge but how would i show this? if I do ∫E dA → E∫dA the surface area of a cube is 6L2 so i would...

    Kicked ball hits bird and falls

    im sorry for the mess of equations but i have a final tomorrow night and my professor gives very little credit if we don't start from the basic equations of energy, kinematics, momentum, etc we arent allowed to make any shortcuts :( you get 80% credit for the problem as long as you have the...

    Kicked ball hits bird and falls

    ok so here is what i did: y: h=g/2 (t)^{}2 + V_{}iSinθ(t) ΔV_{}y=a_{}y(t) t=(V_{}iSinθ)\frac{}{}g t=1.31 seconds h=25.25 meters (makes sense since it was going 20 m/s and traveled for a bit over 1 second) now for the final velocity, since the y component of velocity will be 0 at...

    Kicked ball hits bird and falls

    so i need to use energy twice, the second time being right before and after the impact?

    Kicked ball hits bird and falls

    Homework Statement You kick a ball at 20m/s at 40* from the horizontal, at the very top it hits a bird, stops immediately and fall straight down. vi=20m/s θ=40° I need to calculate the velocity right before impact the max height (height of collision) speed of ball when right before it hits...

    How Do You Convert GW/bcf to J/m^3 for Energy Storage?

    1.They claim that it is possible to store over 500 GW of power (presumably for part of a day) in pressurized caverns of 535 billion cubic feet. If the storage time is one half day, what is this in Joules per cubic meter? [b]2.Watt=J/s GW=1x10^12 Watts 1 cubic meter = 35.31466672 cubic...
