    Linear Algebra: Find a formula for a matrix M to any power

    Homework Statement Homework Equations A = SDS-1 Under some specific conditions, An=SDnS-1 The Attempt at a Solution det(A-λI) = 0 (16-λ)(-λ) - (-64)(1) = 0 λ2 - 16λ + 64 = 0 λ = 8 Multiplicity 2. This is as far as I got because you need 2 eigenvalues to get 2...

    Minimum possible kinetic energy in an interaction

    Oh...Thanks! Previous problems like this had the second object initially at rest, so I used that way without thinking.

    Minimum possible kinetic energy in an interaction

    Homework Statement Object A of mass 10 kg moving at 10 m/s [E] interacts with (but does not touch) Object B of mass 8 kg moving at 12 m/s [N]. What is the minimum possible kinetic energy of the system after the collision? Homework Equations M1V1o + M2V2o = M1V1f + M2V2f KE = (.5)(m)(v2)...

    Volume of the solid using a cylindrical cross section

    Homework Statement Find the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by the given curves about the specified axis. Homework Equations y = \sqrt{x-1} , y = 0, x = 5; about y = 3 The Attempt at a Solution I already completed graphing it, but not really sure how...
