My girlfriend had this problem on her first tutorial sheet at Univeristy. She is doing maths. I am doing physics and was interested in the answer. It asked what the result was when a displacement vector was added to a velocity vector. The vector addition can obviously be done on these two...

Could someone help me and write an algorithm to add 2 Cantor expansions. The algorithm to get a decimal number to cantor expansion is: procedure decimal-to-cantor(x: positive integer) n := 1 y := x fy is a temporary variable used so that this procedure won't destroy the original value of...

You are on a treasure hunt and your map says "Walk due east for 52 paces, then walk 29.6° north of west for 44 paces, and finally walk due north for 25 paces." (a) What is the magnitude of the component of your displacement in the direction due north? b) What is the magnitude of the...

My question seems to be so idiotic.please forgive me for that.On what basis we perform mathematical calculations like addition and subtraction?As for as decimal system is concerned we have only 10 uncontinuos digits.but we are doing so much magic(I don't know whether I am using the correct...

I understand that, given objects A and B moving away from a stationary point O and each other at relativistic speeds, you use the relativistic addition formula to find A's speed relative to B. How would you find A's speed relative to B if A and B are moving away from O at a 60 degree angle...

I need help getting in the right direction... Two forces have the same magnitude F. What is the angle between the two vectors if their sum has a magnitude of 2*F? sqrt(2)*F? zero?

Hi again, I have what is seems to be a simple vector addition problem, but I am questioning a certain part of it. I would show a diagram but I can't at the moment as the computer I am on does not have a drawing program. It should be fairly easy to picture though. The base of the drawing is...

I think I have a trick question here. The section we are covering is addition of vectors by means of components. Here is my problem: You are on a treasure hunt and your map says, "Walk due east for 52 paces, then walk 26.6 degrees north of west for 42 paces, and finally walk due north for 25...

In class today we had a brief lesson on vector addition. I understand how to calculate the resultant when given a magnitude and angle measurent for each vector, but my teacher gave me no other examples. I have tons of homework problems that do not give me this information, but I am expected to...

How can I couple three angular momentum? I am confused about this, in fact I don't understand how can I do this... I need to build eigenstates of total angular momentum for three particles J=j_1+j_2+j_3, someone can help me? Thank's

The traditional polygonal addition of force is invalid because it doesn't take the dependence of the forces on the positions where they act. We cannot simply drag the force-vectors across the space and expect them to remain the same. The forces must change respectively to the change of the...

How many 16-bit strings contain exactly nine 1's? I said the total number is 2 to the 16th power, so to get half with 1's would be 2 to the 8th, or 256. How many 16-bit strings contain at least fourteen 1's? I have no idea. When determining a how to get 2 pair in a poker hand, why is...

i am curious as to how this would look. i wonder how the addition tables would look in base -5? would the multiplication look the same? here is what i know so far: addition multiplication 0 1 2 3 4...

I am working through some old particle physics notes of mine and when reading Griffiths "Introduction to Elementary Particles" I stumbled across a very perplexing problem: Problem 4.9, pg 138: "When you are adding angular momentum... it is useful to check your results by counting the...

Hey all, I guess Einstein has some counter-intuitive, at least naturally, vector addition formula whose result could be that two beams of light traveling towards each other is basically the same as one beam going towards a stationary object, right? Well..I hope you knwo waht I mean. That the...

"Factoring" of addition? Is there a name for "factoring" addition? For example...let's say I'm working in a basis of all integers greater than 3. I can make 7 from 3+4; 8 from 4+4 or 3+5; 9 from 3+3+3 or 4+5 or 6+3... Is there a name for this? And if so...are there computer programs that...

Hello...I really want to make a program that can do vector addition and subtraction, given two or more vectors. The problem is, I'm not sure of the math that would be needed to do it. See, I want the person to be able to enter two or more vectors with a magnitude (length) and angle (with 0...

Hi, Can someone please show some example of Qualitative difference between Addition and Multiplication, when using Boolean Logic? (by Qualitative difference I mean that Quantity remains unchanged during addition or multiplication operations between n positive integers).

We determined our melting point to be 199 C. Which would correspond to (2R,2S) and (2S,3R) 2,3-dibromo-3-phenylpropanoic acid (mp 202-204 C) but we are trying to determine whether this is a syn or an anti addition. Any suggestions? Thanks Nautica

When ethene undergoes electrophilic addition with bromine water Br2(aq), at the second stage the water reacts with the second carbon,and a hydroxyl group bonds with the carbon across the double bond instead of the bromide ion. Why doesn't water intervene at the first stage, i.e. when the first...
