Thank you. This is what I was looking for.

My university's professors have a pathological obsession with non inertial frames of reference which apparently has been going on for decades. As a result we work tons of these problems involving kinematics, dynamics and so on. However, none of the books listed in the bibliography of the course...

I actually tried before posting. Once you make the substitution there are two ways to attempt the problem, one by doing u^2 = 1+y and then differentiating, and the other got me to 2*(1+y)^(1/2)du = dy. None of these seemed to make the integral any easier.

Homework Statement [/B] Solve the differential equation Homework EquationsThe Attempt at a Solution [/B] I just can't integrate that (1+y)^(1/2)/(1+y^2)dy at the end... the other two integrals are trivial.

I'm starting my 1st year of Physics at university in September. Although I've learned a lot of single variable Calculus and various topics of Physics this year, I'd like to get a general overview of the topics touched in a 1st Physics course at uni. I just wonder if there's an equivalent to...

Very nice book but it assumes you know the binomial expansion for positive and negative exponents. Make sure you review those first.

The only Linear Algebra book I own is only in Spanish. What a masterpiece though! http://www.amazon.es/dp/8497324811/

Those are the matrices you'd find in the first 40 pages of any Linear Algebra introductory book (shorter if it doesn't have rigorous proofs). Anything will do as long as it's readable.

I would download it since it's on Archive. You can go to a local store and print it, then give it a proper binding all for little money. This is perfectly doable on this part of Europe, not sure if you'd get in trouble somewhere else, so I don't recommend doing this to the uninformed reader. But...

I need to know this subject for my uni access exam, which will include one combinatorics problem. It's very silly because it's not studied in the course at all, you are instead given random problems and are supposed to magically know them and work them out in the most painful ways. I just don't...

I know limit 1/infinity = very close to 0. I.e you can divide into smaller and smaller points but it's never actually 0, because that's not a point. I may be wrong but that's so small that it hardly has a meaning 'in our world'. So I would solve this by dividing the metre in a measurable...

Aight, I was just hoping somebody would help with the Geometry and Combinatorics part (I didn't find info about these on MIT). Where did I mention downloads though? There are plenty of public libraries here:biggrin: (I just prefer open source for readiness and personal preference)

Anybody?

Thank you. I'm taking a look at the Single Variable Calculus lectures.
