    Math Laws, Rules, and Precautions?

    Hey! I am curious to know if there is any book, site, or reference material that teaches you strictly on math laws. For example, they may give you formulas (like synthetic division).. and tell you that every time you use the restriction ( that happens to be a fraction, you must divide it...

    Concentration of [H+] ions in a solution

    Hey guys, just a quick question: If you have a solution of nitric acid, and if you were asked to find the concentration of H+ ions in the solution, would you find the concentration of H+ ions in the acid plus in the water? Re-wording of question: you find the moles of H+ ions in acid +...

    About Sodium Carbonate(Definition of base)

    I find that definition true. There's really nothing complicated or more in-depth from the question. Bases are involved in neutralization reactions, which does product water and salt.

    Concentration of ions in a reaction

    Alright guys, I am a little bit confused on how to find the concentration of ions in a reaction. In a solution, it is relatively easy. Are the number of ions in the beginning the same they are in the end? Please give me some general guidelines: i know to begin with a balanced equation ...

    Efficiency vs Height: Understanding the Relationship

    Sure, here it is in a Word Document. Thanks for any help. EDIT: I have a feeling that the graph may not be linear. It's hard to find a solid linear relationship in physics (from my experience). Thanks anyway! Oh yeah, the line in the pictured was generated by Microsoft word. It may not be...

    Efficiency vs Height: Understanding the Relationship

    Our desired energy output is only Ek. Our desired energy input is only Eg. We are trying to find the efficiency vs height relationship. In our experiment, as we increased the vertical height, but remain a fixed distance, our cart traveled down the slope faster. This makes sense...

    Relative vectors - how do you determine?

    1. The problem statement I find it sometimes difficult to come up with the equation relevant to the question. If anyone has any tips, your help is appreciated. 2. Relevant example For example: A passenger climbs aboard a northbound bus and walks toward the back at a rate of 1.8m/s...

    Newton's third law is absurd: argue why this isn't true.

    So isn't it when equal opposing force? If you push me, is there an equal opposing force? I think your force is greater, so therefore, I move forward. But the law says the object does not accelerate, with opposing and equal forces. Thanks to all for your help. If anyone else can...

    Newton's third law is absurd: argue why this isn't true.

    Homework Statement If the forces in Newton's third law are equal and opposite, they cancel, and thus nothing can ever accelerate, so the law is absurd. Homework Equations Argue why this isn't true. This is from my textbook, a very strong argument. The Attempt at a Solution Hey...

    Normal Force and Force of Gravity: When and why are they equal?

    Oh right. so this means mg and normal forces cancel each other, because if one force was greater, then there is a vertical displacement as well. (Eg the brick on the table could vertically move up or down) I see I see. Thank you to everyone as well. Thank you!

    Normal Force and Force of Gravity: When and why are they equal?

    Homework Statement My teacher explained to my class that Normal force equals Force of Gravity. Given a free body diagram on a flat surface, Normal force is directed up, and Force of Gravity is directed down. Homework Equations So my teacher did the following: Fg = Force of gravity...
