How to make a surface plot involving an infinite series
The easiest way to do it is: syms x y n v=4/pi*symsum(1/(2*n+1)*exp(-(2*n+1)*pi*x)*sin((2*n+1)*pi*y),n,0,100); ezsurf(v) https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B56mzK7jKc5ebE9nYlNVMUhuWVk/edit?usp=sharing ...still trying to work out complex errors if I try to do this without symbolic...- pr0me7heu2

How to make a surface plot involving an infinite series
I thought it would be as simple as: >> syms V0 n x y a >> for i=1:2:inf; i=n; s=1/n*exp(-n*pi*x/a)*sin(n*pi*y/a); end f=4*V0/pi*s; ezsurf(f) but this returns nothing; no error nothing. This is more for personal enrichment, rather than a class... unless someone else comes by and posts some...- pr0me7heu2

How to make a surface plot involving an infinite series
How to make a surface plot involving an infinite series in Matlab Solving Laplace's equation for electric potential for a 2D surface yields: V(x,y) = 4 Vo/pi * Ʃ (n=1,3,5,...) (1/n e^(-npi*x/a) sin(n*pi*y/a) ,where a is and Vo are constants ...it's convoluted, but basically, I need to...- pr0me7heu2

Very Hard Integral (from int Coulomb) with -3/2 power + others
Homework Statement I am trying to directly calculate the electric field (using Coulomb) at some arbitrary point P(0,0,z). The charge is evenly distributed over the surface of a sphere (radius R, charge density σ). Here I use θ for the polar angle and p for the azimuthal angle. I will leave...- pr0me7heu2

Engineering Find the total power in the circuit
This problem was driving me crazy as well... I, as The Electrician also calculated, found the b,d,and f are producing 770 mW and a,c, and e are absorbing 770 mW. Yet, as the answer in the back of the book (Nilsson / Riedel Electric Circuits 8.e) gives 770 mw. Carefully reading the question...- pr0me7heu2

Graduate Solutions to Homogeneous 2nd-order Linear D.E.s
,so in class we're covering second-order D.E.s... How exactly was it determined/derived that all solutions to homogeneous 2nd-order linear differential equations with constant coefficients (ay'' + by' + cy =0, where a,b,c are real constants) are of the form y=ert. Not asking for anyone to...- pr0me7heu2

Easier way of finding Integrating Factor for Exact Differential Equation?
...because the method of haphazrdly looking at the equation and thinking, "what will make this exact?" isn't exactly a method that will work all the time. And the method presented in the book and class yields factors that would simply suck trying to integrate. I was just curious if there were...- pr0me7heu2

Graduate Norm of a Function vs. Length of a Vector
Suppose f(x)= -2x+1 is a vector in the vector space C[0,1]. Calculating the norm (f,f) results in 1/3. I'm a little confused. So on [0,1] the function is a straight line from (0,1) to (0,-1). So I thought I could simply takes this line segment and turn it into a directed line segment...- pr0me7heu2

Undergrad Subspaces of R2 and R3: Understanding Dimensions of Real Vector Spaces
So I'm considering dimensions of real vector spaces. I found myself thinking about the following: So for the vector space R2 there are the following possible subspaces: 1. {0} 2. R2 3. All the lines through the origin. Then I considered R3. For the vector space R3 there are the...- pr0me7heu2
