Homework Statement If G is a group of even order, prove it has an element a=/ e satisfying a^2=e. The Attempt at a Solution I showed that a=a^-1, ie a is its own inverse. So, can't every element in G be its own inverse? Why does G have to be even ordered?

This is a problem many of the grad students have probably encountered, it's in Chapter 0 of Riemannian Geometry by Do Carmo. Do Carmo proved that the tangent bundle of a differentiable manifold is itself a differentiable manifold by constructing a differentiable structure on TM, where M is a...

Homework Statement n/a Homework Equations n/a The Attempt at a Solution n/a In my physics class we are learning about the EM radiation/wave nature of light/wave optics / image formation by mirrors and lenses, and I had a general question that was not really discussed in the...

When (self)learning quantum mechanics, I was introduced to Hermitian polynomials when learning about harmonic oscillators. This was pretty simple to remember, but then, today, when I first started reading about 3D quantum mechanics (when the Schroedinger equation has now become spherical), I am...

I have two probability questions.. and I have no clues staring them... So... let's do this.. Two fair six-sided are rolled and the face values are added. What is the probability of obtaining a sum that is an even number less than 8? There are 10 horses in a race. A...

Hi, Just when I thought I'd grasped the Discrete Fourier Transform properly,something comes along and messes me up ... and my books don't seem to treat it. Say you have a square 2D image and you want to do an Ideal LowPass Filter. Well, in general, filters need to be odd-number-sized so...

I was watching DonnyLee's videos on youtube and I noticed something strange. I think he picked u=x and du=dx, and if I'm right (?) he picked v= \int x dy/dx but does that even equal to y? But that can't be right because the right side kept the original expression. Some help might clear up the...

Homework Statement Show that if every region in a planar graph has an even number of bounding edges, then the vertices can be 2-colored. The Attempt at a Solution So i think it would suffice to show that if that all the regions have an even number of boundary edges, then, a complete...

Why does two odd functions divided by each other become an even function?

Homework Statement Show with induction that a set with n elements have 2n subsets. The Attempt at a Solution I assume this should only be for all natural numbers, but I cannot even show that it applies to n = 1. Let's say we have a set S = {x(1)}. That has 1 element, but only 1 subset...

the density of ice(solid) is less than that of water(liquid) and density of mercury(liquid) is more than that of many solids. thinking about it, it seemed natural to me that the more closely are the atoms or molecules packed the greater will be their density. but on packing them closely, isn't...

Actually, can you take a root of any negative number?

Ok here is a thing I don't understand: How can a black hole exist? There are several things bugging me about black holes: 1) The more concentrated the matter is, the more deformed spacetime is and the slower the time is (from our point of reference). How can Black Hole be created in finite...

Hi, I'm a beginner in C++. I wan't to write this program: Write a program that asks the user to enter n numbers –where n entered by the user- and calculates the sum of even numbers only. main function asks the user to enter n and then calls the recursive function Sum to read the values...

Is Zero an even or odd number, or neither? The common answer I have found seems to focus on the fact that you can evenly divide by two. However there is a bit of dispute whether this is accurate or not. Can anyone offer clarification on this? Thanks!

A new solar technology based on tiny nano-sized antennae is capable of harvesting energy with 80% efficiency, as opposed to the 10-20% seen on commercial solar panels today. But if that isn't amazing enough for you, these new panels can even harvest energy at night, by absorbing light from the...

Is it even possible? Or am I just flat out wrong once again? Whenever I really need to procrastinate, I turn to writing a calculus book. In this case.. For about three days I pursued the problem of whether or not you can teach topology before "rigorous Calculus". Is it even possible, to...

[SOLVED] Easy question, unsure if this even counts as calc Homework Statement 14) Show that if a, b, and c are real numbers and a != 0, then there is a unique solution of the equation ax + b = c. I'm asking this question here, as it seems TOO easy to be asked in my propositional calculus...

From its perspective, can't it "see" itself as being at rest while everything else is moving at c? Then, from its perspective it's massless AND not moving, so it doesn't have mass OR momentum and thus has no energy at all. Also, doesn't time stop from the photon's perspective? If an object has...

If i connect an inductor and a charged capacitor as the only circuital elements in a circuit [other than lead wires], something called 'LC Oscillations' happen. According to what I've read, due to the charge on the capacitor, there is a potential difference across the ends across which the...
