Hi everybody..
I have a simple question...Is there a free software for to determinate a definite integral on internet?
Tanks..

Do you want numerical or symbolic integration?

For a large list of computer algebra systems, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_computer_algebra_systems"

Here is an online numerical integrator: http://people.hofstra.edu/stefan_Waner/RealWorld/integral/integral.html"

OK. What I meant with symbolic integration was things like

\int_{-1}^1\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+x^2}}dx=\log(\sqrt{2}+1})

instead of the answer .88137...
 

Thread 'How does this derivative work? And why the speed of light remains?'

Relativistic Momentum, Mass, and Energy Momentum and mass (...), the classic equations for conserving momentum and energy are not adequate for the analysis of high-speed collisions. (...) The momentum of a particle moving with velocity ##v## is given by $$p=\cfrac{mv}{\sqrt{1-(v^2/c^2)}}\qquad{R-10}$$ ENERGY In relativistic mechanics, as in classic mechanics, the net force on a particle is equal to the time rate of change of the momentum of the particle. Considering one-dimensional...
