I also just tried to do this and it looks like this is pretty trivial if you try to get the exponential Fourier series instead? Because cosx can be written as e^jwt+e^-jwt

This was on a list of exercise problems from a university website, but ignoring that, how would you find the current through the current source?

Homework Statement I'm not sure how to solve this question, the method you're supposed to use is nodal analysis. Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution I tried to use KCL at node A, so I have (12-Va)/8 - 3Va =0 Once I solved Va, the current is 3*Va. However, I'm not...

Hi, I have a bit of a problem understanding one of the solutions for my assignment. Homework Statement Normally we use the equation F = iL X B to find the force of a magnetic field on a wire with a current. One of the questions asks to find the force on a section of wire between x=3 and...

As have I, I'm not sure if this can be classified as an illness though. Right now it does not seem to be affecting me too much at all but I'll see how things go.

I have pulled a few all nighters last semester, but since the libraries at my school do not open 24/7 unless during exam time, I was discouraged from doing too much of it throughout the semester. At the beginning of last semester, I did try polyphasic sleep, merely out of curiosity since the...

Hi, I'm a first year student at the University of Waterloo (just finished co While Waterloo makes your work, their intention is in no way to teach you the bare minimum you need for working, so I don't see how that would be a problem since you learn the same materials in class. Also, I think...

Never mind, I misunderstood what the textbook was saying, thanks for the input though.

Hi all, I'm kind of confused right now about some concepts. - Dipoles are essentially point charges of the same magnitude but different signs that are a certain distance away from each other, right? -In my textbook, they were calculating a charged particle that is on the dipole axis...

AFAIK the AIF can only help your admission average, so they won't deduct marks based on the AIF though I believe you can get up to 5% added based on your AIF.

Thanks for the recommendation, do you also know of any online resources? And Sedra happens to teach at my school!

I'm living near Columbia & Hazel, rent is only $350 a month, all inclusive. The rent for places near campus usually start off pretty high, but when you look near the end of the term the go down a lot. I'm not sure if this is true for the fall term though. I've heard from ppl that rent during the...

Hi all, I want to finish an introductory electrical engineering course by myself during my off term. Since I don't know the concepts well enough, I shall base my selection of materials to study from on recommendation from people who do know the subject well. Anyway, here is the short...

thanks!

I lived in V1 it wasn't that bad, I'm in 1A currently doing co-op. The Spartans seem to have it bad, lol.
