Okay, I do understand that what I did was incorrect. I am just trying to figure out how to solve this. I am having trouble tying to break it down into simple statements (p|q) = p and q are not both true. Simple statements: p is true, q is true. Here i don't know what to do about the both clause...

I can assure you that this book states : 7. let p|q express that "p and q are not both true." write a symbolic expression for p|q using ~ and /\. This textbook uses the notation \/ for or, /\ for and, ~ for negate. I hope this helps and thank you for your response

<< Mentor Note -- Moved from the technical math forums, so no HH Template is shown >>[/color] I am currently working through a Finite math book Intro to finite math: second Edition Kemeny, Snell, and Thompson. One of the exercises wants me to construct a truth table for the following: ~(p|q)...

Why do we use the equivalent resistance, but not the equivalent current that I found, was that an erroneous calculation?

I apologize for not including that top part.

Three 100 Ω resistors are connected as shown in the figure. The maximum power that can safely be delivered to anyone resistor is 22.5W. (a) What is the maximum potential difference that can be applied to the terminals a and b? 33.541 Which resistor will have the largest current? V (b) For...

Here is the problem: I have already lost the ability to get the correct answer for AI Homework Statement (a) What is the maximum potential difference that can be applied to the terminals a and b? 33.541 Which resistor will have the largest current? V (b) For the voltage determined in part...

You have misinterpreted this. The force produce per stride is directly related to the ability to move at such a high rate of speed - a sub 6 minute mile. 5280 feet per mile each stride is around 6'5"...

Unfortunately it did not. This is the pop up I get and got when I clicked your line

I am trying to view some possibly old java applets on this site: http://aleph0.clarku.edu/~djoyce/java/elements/bookI/bookI.html I keep getting promoted that they are blocked. I have tried to add this site to the exception list but it has not changed anything. I closed all pages, and have since...

No, who does more work, or produces more force: the weightlifter lifting 118 kg 1 meter, or the marathon runner during one stride. The weight i chose was arbitrary.

I specified only one stride therefore your argument concerning thousands to one does not hold. I never mentioned racking the bar either - imagine the bar is lifted and disappears instantaneously after having been moved through the complete rep if you must. A few comments above steven tashi gave...

I appreciate your response and believe you may be correct about fluid output, but so far as pressure is concerned that is an exaggeration as well, much greater one though. Normal resting blood pressure 120 psi, standard interior faucet 40-60psi. Still I have yet to receive a comment really...

No, who does more work per rep? Does the weight lifter do more work lifting the weighted bar off the ground than the runner during one stride. At first glance it seemed logical that a lifting 118Kg 1 meter of the ground would do more expend more energy, but the marathon runner is producing...

I did not mean anything of that sort, replacing an actual combustion engine with a biological machine. Rather replace an existing pump with a biological pump. The car reference was just thinking of making the pump larger -the size of an engine not the size of a heart.
