    Does the direction of current inverse in ac?

    I'm learning AC and theory says that the polarity of AC inverses.. even the name says 'alternating current'.. now what about the live and neutral? does the current goes from neutral to live and and vice versa? Some people says that only the phase inverses, but the current is always from live to...

    How to solve an integral with the Inverse error function

    Hi, this is not a homework and my problem is much bigger for me to give full details here. I came across this integral \mathcal{I}(\xi)=\int^{\xi_c}_{\xi}{\rm d}\xi^\prime\exp\left[\sqrt{2}\sigma\,{\rm Erf}^{-1}\left(1-\frac{8\pi}{3}{\xi^\prime}^3\right)\right] where Erf^{-1} is the...

    Trigonometric and inverse trigonometric equations

    Given a trig equation, like: sin(x)² + cos(x)² = 1² or sin(x) = 1/csc(x), exist a correspondent inverse: arcsin(x) + arccos(x) = π/2 and arcsin(x) = arccsc(1/x), respectively. Thus, given an any trigonometric equation, how find its correspondent inverse?

    How can polarity of AC inverse but keep the live hot and neutral cold?

    In an AC circuit, we know that the polarity inverses, and what i know is that the flow of current also will therefore inverse.. which means that the live will become negative and the neutral will become positive.. What i can't understand is how the polarity inverses but the live is still the hot...

    MHB Right inverse clarification needed

    f: (R*R)->R f(x,y)=x+y if I'm asked to write 2 right inversed fanctions of f. can I say that: f1: R-> (R*R) f1(x)= (x-1, 1) f2: R-> (R*R) f1(x)= (x-2, 2) because: f(f1(x))= f(x-1,1)=x-1+1=x well this does matches the definition of right inverse function but what bothers me I guess is...

    Why Is \cos y Positive When Differentiating \arcsin x?

    Say we want to differentiate \arcsin x. To do this we put y=\arcsin x. Then x=\sin y \implies \frac{dx}{dy}= \cos y. Then we use the relation \sin^2 y + \cos^2 y = 1 \implies \cos y = \sqrt{1 - \sin^2 y} = \sqrt{1 - x^2}. Therefore \frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - x^2}}. My question is that...
