AI Thread Summary
To find the 't' value in the integral \(\int_0^t dx = M\), the anti-derivative of the constant function 1 is simply \(t\), leading to the conclusion that \(t = M\). For the integral \(\int_0^t x dx = M\), the anti-derivative is \(\frac{t^2}{2}\), which can be set equal to \(M\) to solve for \(t\). This requires knowing the specific function being integrated, as the relationship between \(t\) and \(M\) depends on it. In summary, the method involves integrating the function, setting the result equal to \(M\), and solving for \(t\). Understanding the anti-derivative is crucial to finding the correct value of \(t\).

hello
commonly we have:
\int^t_0 \ dx=M

"M" is a specific number (the result of integal)

my question:
having value of "M", how we can find the "t" value

This sounds much like homework to me. >"<

What have you done? Have you tried anything?

Ok, I'll give you some hints then:

1. What is the anti-derivative of: \int dx = ?

2. What is : \int_0 ^ t dx = ? in terms of t?

3. What is the relation between t, and M?

In case this isn't homework and is a question from curiosity: In general, there is a function being integrated; \int^t_0 f(x) dx=M. In which case, the answer to your question is "only if we know the function, f."
 
i know the function f(x)
suppose that f(x) is x

\int^t_0 x dx=M
 
What IS the integral (anti-derivative) of x? Do the integration on the left, set it equal to M and solve the equation for t.

In the very simple case, you started with, \int_0^t dx, the anti-derivative of the constant 1 is just x
\int_0^t dx= x\right|_0^t= t[/itex]<br /> In that case, whatever number M is, you have t= M. For the case of <br /> \int_0^t x dx= M<br /> it is almost as simple.
 
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
Suppose ,instead of the usual x,y coordinate system with an I basis vector along the x -axis and a corresponding j basis vector along the y-axis we instead have a different pair of basis vectors ,call them e and f along their respective axes. I have seen that this is an important subject in maths My question is what physical applications does such a model apply to? I am asking here because I have devoted quite a lot of time in the past to understanding convectors and the dual...
Thread 'Imaginary Pythagoras'
I posted this in the Lame Math thread, but it's got me thinking. Is there any validity to this? Or is it really just a mathematical trick? Naively, I see that i2 + plus 12 does equal zero2. But does this have a meaning? I know one can treat the imaginary number line as just another axis like the reals, but does that mean this does represent a triangle in the complex plane with a hypotenuse of length zero? Ibix offered a rendering of the diagram using what I assume is matrix* notation...
