Linear Definition and 1000 Threads

Hello, I am struggling with what each piece of these equations are. I generally know the two rules that need to hold for an operator to be linear, but I am struggling with what each piece of each equation is/means. Lets look at one of the three operators in question. A(f(x))=(∂f/∂x)+3f(x) I...

Hi! I don't understand how to demonstrate the following exercise. Let ##F: R^{n} \rightarrow R^{n}## be a linear map which is invertible. Show that if ##A## is the matrix associated with ##F##, then ##A^{-1}## is the matrix associated with the inverse of ##F##.

how would I go about answering the above question I need some pointers on how to start?

Let A={ex,sin(x),excos(x),sin(x),cos(x)} and let V be the subspace of C(R) equal to span(A). Define T:V→V,f↦df/dx. How do I prove that T is a linear transformation? (I can do this with numbers but the trig is throwing me).

Hey! :o Let $v_1:\begin{pmatrix}1 \\ 1\\ 1\end{pmatrix}, \ \ v_2:\begin{pmatrix}1 \\ 0\\ 1\end{pmatrix}\in \mathbb{R}^3$. Let $w=\begin{pmatrix}1 \\ 0 \\2\end{pmatrix}\in \mathbb{R}^3$. If possible, give a linear map $\phi:\mathbb{R}^3\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^2$ such that $\phi...

From the circuit I have: ##-v_b + v_a + V = 0## ##v_b - V = v_a## ##i_1 = (v_b - V)/R_1## ##I + i_2 = i_1## ##(v_b - V)/R_1 = I + v_b/R_2## From this last equation I get ##v_b = 10.8## and hence ##v_a = 5.8##. However, apparently that is wrong. (And hence my answers to #2 were all wrong as...

In 2000 the company had 300 customers. In 2015, this company already had 1200 customers. How many customers did the company have in 2008 if we know that the number of customers growing is linear?Just want to make sure, is 780 the correct answer?

Hello, so there's a graph provided in the task which I'm trying to solve for a quite a while and I am really confused where the 5 to 8 line came from, because (5x+8y<5) doesn't create that sort of line. Is it possible that there's a misstake done by my teacher or am I understanding something wrong?

I am trying to choose Elevator wire, chart shows max load reading in KG/m. Does it mean if length increases weight will increases as well ? Example; If max load of wire is 0.492kg/m. And i am using 2 meter does it mean capacity of wire would be 0.984 kg/m.

I solved this question until the end of the "c)Find the distance until the boat completely stop" However I can not solve the integral I encounter in the solution of the last part of c). Would you please check for math and maybe my mistakes and tell me what to do? Here:

Please help please

https://www.physicsforums.com/attachments/9471 ok lots of options to solve this but I would start by $R3-R1\to R3$ if I remember correctly if get a diagonal of ones and the rest zeros in A we will have B from Ax=B $\tiny{USMA = United \,States\, Military\, Academy}$

ΔL= αLoΔT ΔL = (23*10^-6)(0.2480 m)(28.30°C) ΔL = 1.61 * 10^-4 Period is 1s, so each second the pendulum moves 1.61 * 10^-4 m 1.61 * 10^-4 m/s *(60s/1min)*(60min/1hr)*(24hr/1day) = 13.95 m/day T = s (1:1 ratio) 13.95 seconds. But the answer is actually 69.3 s. Is the equation T = 2π√L/g...

I know that to go from a vector with coordinates relative to a basis ##\alpha## to a vector with coordinates relative to a basis ##\beta## we can use the matrix representation of the identity transformation: ##\Big( Id \Big)_{\alpha}^{\beta}##. This can be represented by a diagram: Thus note...

The balls used in the game of lawn bowls are biased so that they travel in a curved path of decreasing radius. When a bowl in motion collides at a glancing angle with another bowl at rest, it -appears- to increase its velocity. Due to conservation of linear momentum the post-collision velocity...

My idea was to write out the formulas for the orthogonal q vectors in terms of the input vectors using the basics of gram-schmidt. Then, I would rewrite those equations suhc that the a vectors were written in terms of the q vectors. And then, try to find some matrix which would capture the...

Hello, I hope you are all having a great day ! I've got a physics test in a couple of days and I have some questions:1. In a calculation, if the acceleration is in m/s², I presume the speed also has to be in m/s and not in km/h ? 2. So with this graph (v with t), I have to find the total...

First i need the average linear velocity 100L/min = 0.1m3/min 0.00167m3/sec Cross Sec Area = Pie r2 =pie(0.0175m)2 9.61x10-4 m2 0.0016m3/s / 9.61x10x-4m2 = 1.66m/s But my notes say this should be 1.73 m/s Once i have the average linear velocity i can calculate Re. Help appreciated

Is there a way to calculate the average linear speed of all points in the volume of a sphere rotating on a single axis? Since points closer to the axis of rotation and the poles move slower than points further out, would the average speed be a simple function of r/2 and pi? It would seem that...

'Let’s first see what all of this means in the context of d = 3 + 1 dimensions. If we have rotational invariance then we can’t write down any terms linear in E or B. The first terms that we can write down are instead ...' Why is this? I don't understnad . My thoughts would be pictruing the set...

As an analogue, if 5J of work is done on an object then the linear KE might increase by 2J and the angular by 3J, so the work is divided between the linear and rotational forms. Now suppose there is a sphere sliding on a frictionless surface. If an impulse of magnitude 1Ns is applied to the...

The strategy here would probably be to find the matrix of ##F##. How would one go about doing that? Since ##V## is finite dimensional, it must have a basis...

I found the linearization, L(x) = -0.0001x+0.2 and I found L(1/99) = 0.0199989899. Then I tried to put that value into my percentage error formula along with 1/99 and got: the absolute value of (1/99)-L(1/99) and then we divide that by our actual value which is 1/99, then I multiply everything...

Two waves are linearly polarized. The electric field of one wave is aligned with the x-axis and the other is aligned with the y-axis. In the absence of matter that might change the polarization, can these waves interfere with each other?

In order to solve for ##x##, I need to re-write the equation for ##dx## so it is independent of ##y## and ##dy##. However, I am having some issues with this. Can someone give me a push in the right direction?

Summary: Can a particle accelerator accelerate gaseous fuel? Does space-time differ for detonating ionized fuel moving near the speed of light within a magnetic field such as a particle accelerator?

Here is my work done for this problem, along with a diagram of the situation. I'm not worried so much about the arithmetic because our tests are only 50 min long so the problems they give us do not require heavy integration or calculus, but you need to know what goes where in the formula. That...

I mean I know they are linear since they obey the ohms law. But I don't quite understand the reasoning that since, say, V=Ldi/dt and taking a derivative is a linear operation therefore it is a linear device?? I can verify that sin'(x) = cos(x) or sin(x+90) so the signal is time shifted but...

I can't think of a counterexample.

1) x = 3 - 4p + q x = 3 - 4y + z x + 4y - z = 3 2) x + 4y - z = 3 (i) let x = a and y = b, so z = a + 4b - 3 General solution: x = a y = b z = a+ 4b - 3 (ii) let x = r and z = t, so y = (3 - r + t) / 4 General solution: x = r y = (3 - r + t) / 4 z = t3) I don't understand this part. Is the...

Has anyone taken these two courses online in a self-paced course for credit? If so, where and how was it in terms of quality? How about price? Opinions/thoughts are much appreciated. I'm working and the closest community college is a commute away, so that's out. I'm finding $1100-3000~ for...

I think the answer is ##\frac{mV}{M}## but I am not sure. Won't the cylinder tries to rotate due to the collision at one end? Is this anything related to Angular Momentum? The Answers given were,

Hi, I ask for a clarification about the following: consider for instance a 10 x 12 homogeneous linear system and perform Gauss elimination for the first 8 unknowns. Suppose you end up with 5 equations in the remaining 12-8 = 4 unknowns (because in the process of the first 8 unknowns elimination...

Let's say you were proctoring some test that required proofs of Jordan canonical forms and rational canonical forms. Would you dock points from a lazy student abbreviating the former as "J-canonical forms" and the latter as "##\mathbb{Q}##-canonical forms" in their proofs?

Hi all, I would like to know what is the equation upon which I can use to determine the practical resonance frequencies in a system of second order, linear differential equations. First some definitions: What I mean by practical resonance frequencies, is the frequencies that a second order...

a+b=0 so.. a= -b -2a-2c = -1 = -2(-b)-2c = -1 = 2b-2c=-1 -a-3b+c= 1 = -(-b)-3b+c= 1 = b-3b+c=1 = -2b+c=1 i think this is right but i don't know where to go from here

I am working on derivation of Lorentz force. (I know that Lorentz force is in some sense definition of fields, but still there is nontrivial dependence on velocity). I want to derive that the force is linear in components of velocity, so for example $$F_x=q(E+Av_x + Bv_y + Cv_z ),$$where ##A...

I tried assumed ##\theta \approx sin \theta \approx tan \theta##. By Snell's law(after approximation), $$n_1 \tan( i_1)= n_2 \tan( i_2)$$ If ##\tan (i_1)=\frac {h_o}{ u}## and ##\tan (i_2)=\frac {h_i}{ v}##,then $$m=\frac {h_i}{h_o}=\mod{\frac {v n_1}{un_2}}$$ Which is the expected...
