    Lagrangian of a particle moving in a cone

    Homework Statement Homework Equations Euler-Lagrange equations of motion The Attempt at a Solution Part a): Particle must move on surface (one constraint). Number of generalised coordinates = 3N - K where N = number of particles and K = constraints. Therefore 2 generalised coordinates are...

    What is the Relationship Between Electron Energy and Acceleration Voltage?

    Again, I have forgotten that electrons having an energy of 50 MeV have been accelerated across 50 MV. Thanks!

    What is the Relationship Between Electron Energy and Acceleration Voltage?

    Thank you very much, I forgot the elementary relation Q = it. I got 3.1 * 10^11 electrons for a) which is the right answer :) For part b), do we just divide average current per pulse by number of pulses per second?

    What is the Relationship Between Electron Energy and Acceleration Voltage?

    i = dQ/dt, but I can't figure out how to derive/integrate here :(

    Magnetic Field in Solenoid question

    Homework Statement Your physics lab demonstrator hands you a spool of copper wire and a battery (voltage V) and asks you to wind the wire around a hollow, cylindrical, cardboard tube (radius a) to make a solenoid of length 2L. a) What is the amplitude of the magnetic field at the centre...

    Limit theorems and determining convergence

    Thanks for the replies! I'm having some trouble manipulating the denominator of a). For b), I can see that whenever n>3 the sin term is 0. Since the (-1)^n-1 oscillates, does the expression diverge by unbounded oscillation? For c), I can simplify it up to x^(3 - logx). After that I...

    Limit theorems and determining convergence

    Homework Statement The Attempt at a Solution I'm having some trouble getting my head around these 3 problems. Any ideas on how to approach them are welcome.

    Iteration/Root finding algorithm

    Sorry, I meant how to show that the only possible value for limn→∞xn is cbrt(λ)! Also, if you could explain how to solve ii) of b) that would be great!

    Iteration/Root finding algorithm

    Homework Statement The Attempt at a Solution I've managed to do part a), by factorising the cubic you get when you rearrange the terms. I'm mostly stumped for part b). I know the sequence has to be contractive, otherwise it wouldn't converge. Also, how do I show it's the only...

    Solving ϵ-N Proofs: Simplifying the Denominator with sqrt(2)

    Thank you very much! Does the limit go to 0? I got 0 from both N and limit theorems (N was sqrt(20/ϵ))
