the reflective side of the mirror was mistakenly placed on the inside of the office. so the people inside it can see themselves but not what is on the outside, how can this be remedied?

Hello, new member here seeking some help/advise. It's been a long time since I've been in school, and it's been probably 3-4 years since I've taken a math class and/or science class(Since high school!, I am currently 21). I have just been accepted to a community college, and am going to...

Some things are bigger than big. They have no-where to sit. The Universe has no-where to sit. Some things are smaller than small. They have nowhere to sit. Quantum Strings have no-where to sit. Science tells us this. We, thankfully, are in-between. We have somewhere to sit. Science...

I am curious in knowing the something about the "optimal" placements of seismographs in a planet. Assuming you know nothing about the geography of a planet and want to learn the most you can and only have 12 seismographs to use, where would you place them? I honestly do not know if this is the...

Is there any way I can tell LaTeX to place an image on the right of a slide *without* using the "figure" environment?

Hi guys, I'm an undergraduate studying at uni currently on a year long "placement". I say "placement", more like "do meaningless tasks that benefit my advisor and his research" - but ultimately nothing to do with my thesis. Anyway since my advisor puts in no effort and the university have...

I've seen ions notated with the postive or negative sign both before and after the element name (usually after). Is this just preference or does its placement indicate anything?

Homework Statement A charge of +2q is placed at the origin and a second charge of –q is placed at x = 3.0 cm. Where can a third charge +Q be placed so that it experiences a zero force?I think I've found the solution, I just need someone to verify why the math is the way it is at the end. 1)...

Homework Statement If f(x) is equal to... x+9 if x<-3 -2x if |x|\leq 3 -6 if x > 32. The attempt at a solution The first and third "segments" of when the function is defined as being x+9 and -6 are pretty straightforward to me, however I am unaware of the significance of the placement of the...

Hi, I'm a third year undergrad at Oxford, and I really want to find a physics based summer placement, where I can do some research, and possibly attend a lecture course (although research is my main aim). I was lucky enough to spend 7 weeks in the Oxford Astro department last summer, doing a...

In the expression ln(-s^2-i\epsilon) , s^2 and \epsilon are positive (this expression can result from for example a loop diagram where s^2 is a Mandelstam variable). In mathematics, the branch cut of ln() is usually taken to be the negative real axis, so that the value above the negative axis...

1. Problem Statement: I am trying to measure the radial (#s 3-6) and hoop (#s 1, 2, 7, 8) strain (and from that, stress) present in an aluminum cylinder. I am trying to use a standard full wheatstone bridge setup, but am having trouble settling on a setup that would give me an accurate...

I guess the thread title says it all: what are the benefits of having a wing fixed to the fuselage at the shoulder as compared to mid or low fixing and vice versa?

Assume that your eyes are located at the top of your 1.60 m tall body. a) What size plance mirror would you need to see your whole body if you were standing 1 m from it? b) How far from the floor should the bottom edge of the mirror be placed? c) How would your answers to (a) and (b) change...

tomarrow i have to take a quiz that determines what class i take next year in school. i have the answers to these problems but i don't know how to get all of them any help? 1. 2/3x + 1/2= 5/2 2. if 1/8 of a number is 12, then 1/4 of a number is? 3.if 3x+2=7x+5y, then x equals? 4...

Right, not sure where this should go exactly but feel free to re-locate if necessary. I'm starting a placement as a student engineer in July with a company which specializes in HVAC for industry. I am currently doing a degree in Aerospace Engineering (BEng Hons). Basically, all I want to...

Hey all, The way I was taught GR, the summation convention applies on terms where an index is repeated strictly with one covariant, one contravariant. But reading through a translation of Einstein's GR foundations paper just now it looks like the index placement doesn't matter (I've seen it...

I need some help picking which math PhD program to attend. My interests are Differential Geometry/Riemannian Geometry, geometric analysis, General Relativity (or Lorentzian geometry in general) and Mathematical Physics. I have been fortunate enough to receive some nice offers from a few...

What determines where a center tap should be placed on an inductor or does it not matter?

Homework Statement A point charge of -0.35nC is fixed at the origin. Where must an electron be placed in order for the electric force acting on it to be exactly at it's weight. Homework Equations Fe=Kqq/d^2 The Attempt at a Solution All I know is that n is an exponential value of...

Anyone remember anything about this college placement test? Ill be a freshman in Chemical Engineering next year and was wondering what its all about(specifically the math section). Difficult? Easy? Any past experiences from any student or graduate who had dealt with it previously? Any...

How exactly do placement tests work for most colleges? Do you say "I want to take so-and-so upper math class", and they'll give you a specific test for that class to make sure you have knowledge of the prerequisites? Ex. If you want to place into a graduate-level analysis class, will they test...

I am not sure where to put this. Its for homework, but its a research paper. we have this topic "If in 1905 we had closed out American borders and ended immigration to our shores, choose one scientist, mathematician, engineer, or architect that would have been prevented from coming to the...

Does anyone know where i can get a list of topics that will be on the exam, or old exams, or practice exams.

Hey everyone, I know the rules are post your own work first but I have no clue. I don't want answers though, I simply want to know what to do to get the answer. Anyways, if it's ok, here's the question... Book: Cutnell & Johnson Physics 7th Edition pp. 569 #40 A particle of...

I think that this problem should be easy but for some reason I don't think I really understand it. A charge of +2q is placed at the origin and a second charge of -q is placed a x = 3cm. Where can a third charge +Q be placed so that it experiences a zero force? I figure that F3 = F1 + F2...

Here's a problem that I need help figuring out... imagine a 9x9 grid filled with the numbers 1-81 starting in the upper left corner and progressing left to right, top to bottom; like so: /--------------------------------------------\ | 1, 2, 3 | 4, 5, 6 | 7, 8, 9 | |...

I'm a high school senior preparing for the AP Calculus AB exam. The school I am attending for college awards credit (placement) for both Calc 1 and 2, if I receive a score of a 5 on the exam, meaning I would begin taking multivariable calculus (i think tis their equiv of calc 3 course)...

I'm mid-way through my second year (I'm in UK) in physics (not that this stuff makes a whole lot of difference, but it's background) and I'm about to apply for a sponsorship for a short work-placement in the department of a local University over the summer. To apply, I need to hand a CV in and...

I am getting ready to take my placement test for college, but it has been over a year since I have taken math. So could some one explain to me, in step by step form, how to solve #14 and #15. http://www.math.ohio-state.edu/counseling/imgs/D-Test02.jpg here are the answers...

If the propeller is placed in front of wings and since the job of the propeller is to accelerate the airflow, wouldn't it result in faster airflow around the wing resulting in increased lift?

Question: How does the leading strand work? (I know that it moves in the right direction...i.e. relatively fast) Where is the RNA primer placed on it (i.e. is it just an arbitrary point)? On eukaryotic DNA, about how many total primers will there be on the leading strand relative to the...

Hi, I'm actually wondering which ap preparation books i should purchase. I was thinking of either the kaplan or princeton review, but if there are others recommended i would greatly appreciate it. As well, please include an explanation for your suggestion. thanx.

Hi, I am planning to purchase one of the advanced placement preparation books. Are there any suggestions? I had in mind of the princeton review or kaplan... If anyone knows which one is better can you provide an explanation as well.. thanks i appreciate it.

OHM's Law Lab this lab involved a voltmeter and an ammeter...a voltage source was turned on and sent to a resistor, from the resistor there was a current probe and a voltage probe...the idea of the lab was to give 6 readings for a resistor, each reading would exceed by .5v intervals...during...

In order to induce a voltage in a coil, is a magnet reqired to pass through the middle of the windings? So the real question is, if I have a tube-like or sleeve-like magnet, can I pass the windings throught the inside of the magnet and still induce a current? Are both ways essentially the...
