Thank you both, it makes sense.

Could you explain that with more detail. The phrases total integers and symmetry limits do not appear in my textbook and google isn't much help.

I have two problems I need help with 1. Homework Statement https://ccle.ucla.edu/mod/resource/view.php?id=801511 https://ccle.ucla.edu/mod/resource/view.php?id=778704 2,3. Answers and work are givenIn the surface integral problem, I do not understand how it sets it up for Method 1. (How does...

I think this is plenty for now. I also downloaded "Trigonometry for the Practical Man" to brush up on it. Thanks!

Here's a bit more context: I mostly wish to reestablish my knowledge of precalculus and calculus, but knowledge of other maths to remember some forgotten "tricks" would help. I used to be very interested in math and would challenge myself a lot. Since for years ago though, I've been in a phase...

Hello, I'm 19 currently second year in college, After one quarter of taking on many math/science classes and struggling in them, I've realized how my knowledge is both shallow and fragile, even in the subjects I've already learned. I currently wish to reestablish my knowledge from the ground...

Okay then. I shall consult my teacher (another student did and I think she was said to respond with something along the lines of "they just separate"). Thanks for the help!

But that is exactly my problem. Shouldn't it NOT BE POSSIBLE for the physics to be possible with the given wording? If I were given the same problem as the link, I could've done it with ease. I understand the physics concepts/math no problem. When I took the test though I just thought this...

The problem clearly says the blocks separate after collision in Part C.

Sorry, wrong wording. I mean to ask how is it possible they can separate when they go at the same velocity after collision?

I got the problem wrong because I made up random numbers. What I did was wrong. The right answer was that block A continued at a speed of 2.5 V0. My dilemma is that would this not imply an inelastic collision if they continued at equal velocities?

So would this problem be "impossible" to do then? If block B continues at 2.5, then it'd be inelastic but it says they separate. (I got this problem "wrong" on a test btw)

Same question as this link except my teacher changed the numbers. 1996-B No.1 part C http://lodischool.tripod.com/dovesol/DOVE96SOL.pdf Velocity of Bock A=4v0 2. mv+mv=mv+mv 3. I understand how to do the question in the pdf file. However, I don't understand how the concept...
