Ha, I want to do all of the above.
But I guess to be more specific, the emphases within geology I'm considering is in surficial and environmental geology. I'm not sure if that will translate well to the planetary side of things though.
I am currently majoring in astrophysics as an undergrad, but my eventual goal is to have a masters or PhD in planetary science. I'm at the point of the course ladder where I've finished up the vanilla physics and math prereqs in order to start on my major specific courses.
Long story short...
Thank you so much! I knew it was something obvious that would make me look stupid ;)
To your question...I'm not really sure. I'm excel illiterate and our professor expects us to use it without ever showing us anything.
Homework Statement
The problem given is...Calculate mI+1 and lI+1 at point xI+1 using equation (5), the values of the slopes at points xI+1 and xI from equation (4), and the values of mI and lI from the previous step.

Homework Equations
The Attempt...
Thanks for the tips.
some how I end up with (I'd type it all out but it's late)...
2∏R/3G=1/M^-1/3
and I'm stuck, and I know its wrong in the 1st place...I'll try again in the morning. Really my issue is I have no idea what to do with the 5/3 exponent and when to do it.
Thanks...
instead of typing it out, here is the problem
I know what to do, my math just isn't good enough to combine the equations properly. Been at it a few hours, brain hurts, please help!
