    Integrating Matrix
Click For Summary
Integrating a matrix involves integrating each individual element separately, similar to how differentiation is performed on all entries of the matrix. This process is considered straightforward, as it follows the same principle of treating each element independently. The discussion also touches on the relevance of this topic in linear algebra and its application in quantum mechanics. Participants express curiosity about the integration process and its educational context. Overall, integrating a matrix is simplified by focusing on its individual components.

Hi everyone. I was curious how I could integrate a matrix. Is it just as simple as separately integrating each of the entities of the matrix, or is it more complex than that?

wow u can do that? :O
 
Well to differentiate a matrix, you would differentiate of all the entries...so i guess integrating would just be integrating each element

very interesting, what class do i do that in? linear algebra?

I think so, but I am covering it in quantum mechanics. Thanks for the help!
 
Question: A clock's minute hand has length 4 and its hour hand has length 3. What is the distance between the tips at the moment when it is increasing most rapidly?(Putnam Exam Question) Answer: Making assumption that both the hands moves at constant angular velocities, the answer is ## \sqrt{7} .## But don't you think this assumption is somewhat doubtful and wrong?
