Let B be the matrix whose row are the standard basis, and C the matrix whose row i is the 3x1 basis vector Fi (i=1,2,3) for the coordinate system. and p =(2/3, 2/3, 1/3) (1/3,-2/3, 2/3) (2/3 -1/3,-2/3) Then B=PT (P transpose)(C) ---(2) Where P the transition matrix from the...

Equation of a Surface relative to the standard basis is X1^1 + 2X2^2 + 3x^3 -4x1x2 -4x2x3 =0 Now the question ask to find the equation of above surface relative to the cordinate system with basis vectors F1= (2/3,2/3,1/3) F2= (1/3,-2/3,2/3) F3= (2/3,-1/3,-2/3) Now i found the transition...

From second law of thermodynamics one can obtain an expression for change in entropy of a system developed by Classius. All thermodynamic systems can be looked at as a reservoir. ds=\ointDQ/T---(1) Ds- Change in entropy in the system brought about by reversible heat transfer between system...

What does it mean for exergy to be consumed ?. An article in Energy and Buildings 2008 tilted "Exergy concept and its application to the built environment" by Shukuya Masanori, stated that exergy of a system can be defined as that portion of energy which allows for dispersion of energy and...

Path length was measured 8 different times and number of fringes counted for each trial was 20. The problem is determining what value to give lambda and path length difference for the equation listed above in order to determine the uncertainty for lambda. Like say I have for my first trial...

I'm during an experiment involving the Michelson- Interferometer, now i need to find the uncertainty for lambda using the equation. 2 (path length difference) = N (lambda) Now I no the above equation can be changed to 2(path length difference)/ N = Lambda; and from their the corresponding...

the mass attenuation coefficient is related to the maximum kinetic energy of the beta ray spectrum ( T max) by this equation mu subscribe m (symbol) = 1.7 / (1.14 T max) the problem here is that the denominator in my text is in the form of a matrix and as well all know a matrix doesn't give...
