So how can I calculate the energy of a volcanic eruption? If I know the VEI, total ejecta, duration and plume height would that be enough or would I need more variables?
My solution is:
Let ##\lim_{ x \to 0}\left(\dfrac {1}{\sin^2x}-\dfrac1{x^2}\right)=L##
Let ##x=2y##
##\lim_{ y \to 0}\left(\dfrac {1}{\sin^22y}-\dfrac1{4y^2}\right)=\lim_{ y \to 0}\left(\dfrac1{4\sin^2y\cdot\cos^2y}-\dfrac1{4y^2}\right)=L##
##=\dfrac14\lim_{ y \to...

Hi
I have problems with the following task
I now wanted to try to calculate the vector potential, which according to my professor's script is defined as follows:

Number of neutrinos detected per kg of water = 12/3*10^6 kg = 4*10^-6 neutrinos
Neutrinos detected by 1 eyeball = 4*10^-6 neutrinos * 0.01kg = 4*10^-8 neutrinos
I am not sure how to scale this to get 400 neutrinos. I did try multiple ways but either ended up with 3.69*10^9 or 4*10^-8 neutrinos...

My problem is on how to arrive at ##d=\dfrac{mx-y}{\sqrt{1+m^2}}##
My working steps are as follows;
##d^2=(x_1 - x)^2+ (y_1-y)^2##
##d^2=(\dfrac{y}{m} -x)^2+ (mx-y)^2##
##d^2=\dfrac{(mx-y)^2}{m^2} + (mx-y)^2##
##m^2d^2=(mx-y)^2(1+m^2)##

Mass of honorite initially: 4.51 kg at 261.2 K
Additional mass of honorite added: 3.75 kg at 261.2 K
total mass of honorite is 4.51 kg + 3.75 kg = 8.26 kg
Mass of liquid odium: 14.69 kg at 391.14 K
Q melt = m honorite × L honorite
Qmelt = 8.26kg × 15500J/kg
Qmelt = 128030 J
Q cool = (m odium)...
My answer disagrees with the textbook and I have a feeling it may be due to how I calculated the moment of inertia. Is there anything obviously wrong with my calculation? Any help is appreciated.

I am not sure why the question had to say "in front of the yz-plane". If I understand correctly, that means x >= 0. However, isn't this restriction already accounted for by saying "in the first octant" which means x...

I am stuck on part b) i). I understand that there is no normal force from the ground as the bin is on the point of being lifted off the ground, that is all fine. That leaves R, F and W.
I know W is 40g, and I am required to calculate F, therefore it makes most sense to take moments about the...

I'm really not sure. Obviously I can get the units right with Resistance * thickness, but I assume there's a correction factor here that I can't find anywhere?
I have done this problem three times now, and keep coming up with an answer that is a factor of 10 off from the answer in the solutions manual. The way I'm doing it is MUCH different than how they did it, so I can't use their method to see where I'm going wrong. I want to find out what I'm...

I'm confused in the calculation for R/2. The author took in account that the charge will change by a factor 1/8. But how does it show that the coloumbic force will become 1/8th. The distance will also reduce by half shouldn't that also be taken into account? Or am I missing something here?

My solution was that the final velocity of the fly is equal to the mass of the elephant divided by the mass of the fly, and then multiplies by the delta in the elephant's velocity. My teacher said it was the wrong answer and that the calculations are presumably pretty long
