    Graduate Relationship between radius of curvature and slope

    Hello all, We know that for some well-behaved, smooth/continuous, twice differentiable function of x, f[x] there exists at each point a slope (f ' [x]) and a radius of curvature \rho [x]=\frac{\left(1+f'[x]^2\right)^{\frac{3}{2}}}{f\text{''}[x]} It also seems intuitive to think that at...

    War and agriculture: historical relationship

    Without knowing much specific war history, it seems to be common knowledge that war was often used for imperialist economic purposes in the past. Presumably, the winning army would either kill any surviving opponents and take their land and property or enslave them. My question is whether...

    Undergrad Relationship between EMF and distance between the particles

    Hello. One doubt. How is the distance between the charged particles and the EMF between them get balanced out? That is, if I have a proton and electron, they attract each other, move towards each other and form a H atom. But going by this attractive force, they should approach each other...
