Evaluating 2D Integrals: f(x,y)=min(x,y)
So if I integrate first from 0 \leq y \leq 1 then the x bounds, my f(x,y)=y? I'm a little confused over this. I don't remember going over this in calculus and this homework is supposed to be a calculus review.- rgalvan2

Infinite sheets of charge w/ conducting slab
Oops sorry: Calculate the x-component of the net electric field at x = 0. I figured that part out though. The next part asks to calculate the surface charge density on each side of the slab. I'm not sure how to do that. I do know that both sides need to equal the total surface charge density of...- rgalvan2

Infinite sheets of charge w/ conducting slab
Homework Statement Two infinite sheets with surface charge density σ1 and σ2, respectively, are oriented perpendicular to the x-axis. An infinite, conducting slab of thickness a is placed between the charged sheets as shown in the figure. The conducting plate has a net charge per unit area of...- rgalvan2

Substitution in Differential Equations
Make an appropriate substitution to find a solution of the equation dy/dx=sin(x-y). Does this general solution contain the linear solution y(x)=x-pi/2 that is readily verified by substitution in the differential equation? Here's what I did: v=x-y y=x-v y'=1-dv/dx 1-dv/dx=sin(v)...- rgalvan2

How Does Friction Affect Stopping Distance and Speed?
ok so i get a=5.886 m/s^2. so now i have a in the positive x direction and mumg in the negative x direction. How do i implement the Work-Energy Theorem? I know the equation is Wnet=K2 - K1. And K=1/2mv^2. i know i don't have the mass so i think i have to implement mu and change in x somehow. is...- rgalvan2

How Does Friction Affect Stopping Distance and Speed?
\mumg is acting in the negative x direction. V is in the positive and mg and N are opposing each other in the y direction. Is that correct?- rgalvan2

How Does Friction Affect Stopping Distance and Speed?
A box slides across a frictionless floor with an initial speed v = 3.5 m/s. It encounters a rough region where the coefficient of friction is µk = 0.6. a) What is the shortest length of rough floor which will stop the box? b) If instead the strip is only 0.41 m long, with what speed does the...- rgalvan2
