AI Thread Summary
The equation 97.9747 = sinh(6.2737x10^9) raises questions about how to derive the value 5.2779. The confusion stems from the calculation process, with one suggestion being to use the inverse hyperbolic sine function, arcsinh. It was clarified that the correct approach involves calculating sinh^-1(97.9747) to arrive at the solution. The discussion highlights the importance of verifying the equation and understanding the mathematical functions involved. Ultimately, the solution is found through the application of the inverse hyperbolic sine.

97.9747 = sinh (6.2737x10^9) How did they solve this??

Homework Statement



Just an equation that I don't understand how they calculated.

97.9747 = sinh(6.2737x109)...
6.2737x109 = 5.2779

how did they get the 5.2779 ??

Can't you just take arcsinh?
 


That's not even close to correct. What context is this being brought up and are you sure you read it correctly or is not a typo?

nevermind..had a brain fart ...just sinh-1(97.9747)
 

Thread 'Rolling without slipping on a curved surface'

Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .

Thread 'Struggling to understand the concept of this question (ice cube in water optics question)'

TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
