Summary:: Consider the rectangular water tank, at the base the length is the same for 200 cm. There are 100 holes for water to come out which each hole have the same flow rate. Find the amount of water that come out in each hole by using differential when we know that there is an error in the...

Here is how my teacher solved this: I understand what the nabla operator does, ##∇\cdot\vec v## means that I am supposed to calculate ##\sum_{n=1}^3\frac {d\vec v} {dx_n}## where ##x_n## are cylindrical coordinates and ##\vec e_3 = \vec e_z##. I understand why ##∇\cdot\vec v = 0##, I would get...

##(\nabla\times\vec B) \times \vec B=\nabla \cdot (\vec B\vec B -\frac 1 2B^2\mathcal I)-(\nabla \cdot \vec B)\vec B## ##\mathcal I## is the unit tensor

We take an arbitrary spacetime point ##(x,t)## in any observer's reference frame ##A##. Let ##(x(v),t(v))## be the co-ordinates of this same event as seen from a frame ##B## moving at a velocity ##v## wrt ##A##. As ##v## varies, the set of points ##(x(v),t(v))## constitute some curve ##C##. So...

Hello, all around the web and even on this website, I've been told countless times that Apostol/Spivak's calculus books are superior to Stewarts. Having personally read about a forth of Apostol's book, and having read half or more of Stewarts, I notice Stewart has better explanations, and better...

$\displaystyle\lim_{x \to 0}\dfrac{1-\cos^2(2x)}{(2x)^2}=$ by quick observation it is seen that this will go to $\dfrac{0}{0)}$ so L'H rule becomes the tool to use but first steps were illusive the calculator returned 1 for the Limit

question: My first attempt: my second attempt: So I am getting 0 (the right answer) for the first method and 40 for the second method. According to the theorem, shouldn't the determinant of the matrix remain the same when the multiple of one row is added to another row? Can anyone explain...

Does anyone know any good research on this topic? I'm basically looking for information on what would be solving integral and differential equations in which the unknown you need to solve for is the level of a integral or derivative in the equation. For example F'1/2(u)+F'x(u)=F'1/3(u) where the...

Hi everyone. I have provided myself a problem that I insist on solving, however, I want to do it "the right way" where I can put every parameter into a calculator and get an answer quickly. I pondered doing it manually and figured that it could be done to a reasonable precision in an hour or...

If we have two functions C(y(t), r(t)) and I(y(t), r(t)) can we write $$\frac{\frac{dC}{dt}}{\frac{dI}{dt}}=\frac{dC}{dI}$$?

The vector field F which is given by $$\mathbf{F} = \dfrac{(x, y)} {\sqrt {1-x^2-y^2}}$$ And the line integral $$ \int_{C} F \cdot dr $$C is the path of $$\dfrac{\ (\cos (t), \sin (t))}{ 1+ e^t}$$ , and $$0 ≤ t < \infty $$ How do I calculate this? Anyone got a tip/hint? many thanks

How did Archimedes discover the Quadrature of the parabola without the use of calculus? If someone could please explain, I would be eternally grateful.

if someone can concur that'd be great; also, is there any way for me to check myself in the future?

Hi, I'm looking for a book that explains more deeply (and a little bit more formal) the functional calculus than the typical introductions that I find in QFT books (like Peskin or Hatfield). Is there any good book for physicists to learn the mathematics behind functional calculus? Thanks
