    Boolean Expression Simplification

    Ahh so the first is =x'+y' and with the second if I change it to: p(p+qr) won't I end up with =p+pqr in the end anyway? Also how do you know what rule you're supose to use? Is there a specific order or is it just whatever you notice first?

    Boolean Expression Simplification

    Homework Statement Simplify the following expressions (x'y'+xy'+x'y) (p+q'p)(p+qr) Homework Equations Laws of boolean algebra The Attempt at a Solution For the first one I've found many ways to solve it... something isn't right here (x'y'+xy'+x'y) =x'(y'+y)+xy' =x'+xy'...

    How is the Induced Magnetic Field Inside a Coil Determined?

    Depends on the question, usually a particle or a rod. Don't know how to deal with the part of the coil rotating.

    How is the Induced Magnetic Field Inside a Coil Determined?

    The velocity is the direction it moves, force is the direction the field moves a particle and field is the dirction of the dots on the page, in this case out of the page.

    How is the Induced Magnetic Field Inside a Coil Determined?

    Left hand rule: Index finger is velocity, palm is force and thumb is field direction. First right hand: Thumb is current and curled fingers is field direction Second right hand: Thumb is velocity, fingers are field and palm is force.
