This one is no less convincing than the others. Indeed as @pbuk said, this is procedurally exactly the same as what you did for the... -
Ppbuk replied to the thread High School Deriving the "third" kinematic equation using graphs.Indeed. If the OP is satisfied that they can "derive" ## v = v_0 + at ## by plotting ## v \ vs \ t ## and observing the slope then how...

No, he says that it cannot be the one he showed (##v## vs ##t##). He didn't show ##v^2##. So all he needs is that pointer: use ##v^2##. -

Yes, by multipling ##KE = KE_0 + Fs## with ##2/m##. But seriously, since eq (3) can be easily derived from eq (1) and eq (2), what is... -
Ppbuk replied to the thread Joint distribution of sequential variables.Simulation is a good way to verify an answer (I did just that here), but will not help you learn anything. No. For part (b) sketch the...

Ppbuk replied to the thread The optimal way of dividing the bet three ways.Indeed. I cannot believe this is what the author intended - see below. Wow, that book should be a lot better than it appears to be...

Ppbuk replied to the thread Joint distribution of sequential variables.You could try drawing the area that satisfies X1 + X2 > 1 on a graph with x2, p(X2=x2) axes and see if that helps.

Good point! For homework-type problems, you need to show your work before we are allowed to give guidance and make comments. -
Ppbuk replied to the thread The optimal way of dividing the bet three ways.This and your previous question are very poorly worded. In general, betting odds are offered by bookmakers. When a bookmaker offers...

Ppbuk replied to the thread Hedging on a weather prediction.That is not the correct approach. Instead, Let the person bet ##r## with Ra and ##s## with Su. You should be able to determine the ratio...
