Do you always need to watch out for "limitations?" How do you memorize them? I have a question about "limitations" given within any theorem. For example: Rolle's Theorem states: So the limitations would be: "Let f be continuous on the closed interval [a,b] and differentiable on the open...

It's one of those scary images that traumatize you... I'm actually not sure if anything will pop up because I'm too scared to even scroll through the video. So, did you have the guts? I didn't :O

If a wheel is turning at 3.0 rads/s, the time it takes to complete one revolution is about: 3.0 rads/s X 1 revolution/6.28 rads = .477 revolutions/s now do I just times by 60s to cancel the seconds out to get 1 revolution. The rotational speed of the minute hand of a watch is: w=...

I just opened a couple of watch batteries that were in blister packs. They are large batteries - the size of nickels. The blister 'popped' when I opened it, certainly it was air-tight. There was a noticeable chemical odour that emanated from it when it was opened. Did this with both...

I had no interest in seeing this movie, then it won all those awards. It better have won because it is good, not because it is the first gay cowboy movie

I'm not quite understanding this, so I'll lay down some assumptions and describe how this is puzzling. Assumptions 1. cellular phones use digital signal. This is true of most areas. The switch was from analog to digital because digital gives much longer battery life (days compared to a...

I personally think it's an entertaining show, even if a lot of people have a problem with the math part for various reasons (though I see nothing wrong with it, the amount it's used or the applications of it). And every time I see it, it makes me want to switch my major from physics to math...

when i was a kid, i stared at a digital watch, and imaigned that the numbers did not stop at the seconds, but went on , so that you had milli-seconds, billi-seconds trilli-seconds(probably not the right terms for them) and so on. i imaigne you could continue this series forever, just get smaller...
