Undergrad Integral of speed as a function of displacement
Thank you, it's kind of what I was looking for; basically, as you confirmed, it's an inverse problem where the variable that is to be solved is the boundary of the integral. I'll work on this a bit and see what I come up with.- Paul Czerner

Undergrad Integral of speed as a function of displacement
I don't have a specific problem to show, just an idea I want to follow up on. It may be true that there are no path integrals (as of yet) as you mention involved in the problem, just one dimension so far. But I mention it just in case the solution may require expansion of the problem into...- Paul Czerner

Undergrad Integral of speed as a function of displacement
Hello, I'm trying to figure out a way to do an integral of a speed/velocity function v(x) described as a function of displacement (the speed changes based on the position of the particle). I want to know the distance traveled after a specific period of time, and I can't figure out how to...- Paul Czerner

Undergrad Finding the square root of a+bi (complex number)
aren't you guys forgetting that the quadratic equation has a +/- option? That gives two solutions for x in the equation ax2 + bx + c = 0. Since 'x' itself is square, and we are given a quartic equation to solve, that's a total of 4 possible solutions for just the 'a' variable. The same goes for...- Paul Czerner
