    Undergrad Proof Validity: Self-Reflection & Textbook Support

    is this proof valid? I thought it out myself with some help from textbooks?

    Undergrad Validating the Chain Rule in Calculus

    Can you explain to be the part on the bottom when we set g2=g(x+h) but E(g2) turns into E(g(x)) not E(g(x+h)) ? If that's valid, why is the limit as h approaches 0 of E(g(x)) is 0 ?

    Undergrad Validating the Chain Rule in Calculus

    Is it correct...I suspect there maybe some circular reasoning with the "error term" becoming 0 as h approaches 0.

    Undergrad Is it possible for the index of refraction to be zero in Snell's law?

    Does Snell's law apply in refraction when the light ray is along the normal line? Utilizing snell's law, the index of refraction (n) would be zero. nr= ni(sin θi)/sinθr Sin(θi)= 0 therefore, nr=0 However,utilizing the formula for index of refraction (n=c/v), the index of refraction...
