AI Thread Summary
The integral of cosh(z)/(z^2 - z) over different closed contours is being evaluated. The contours include circles centered at z=2, z=i, and z=1. There is a suggestion to apply Cauchy's integral formula and to manipulate cosh(z) into exponential form. The discussion indicates that simplifying the expression by factoring out z may lead to a simpler form of the integral. The conversation highlights the need for a solid understanding of complex analysis techniques to solve the integral.

What is the value of

closed integral (C) of [cosh z/(z^2 -z)] dz

if C is
a) the circle |z|=2
b)the circle |z-i|=1/2
c)the circle |z-1|=1/2

i've tried reading up on cauchy's integral formulae in textbooks and my notes but i couldn't find an example which was similar. what do i do? do i hav to first turn the cosh z into a formula involving e's?

is the whole z thing in cos ?

if that is so then take z common cancel it
you'll be left with 1/(Z-1)
 
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanged mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
