AI Thread Summary
The discussion calculates the number of integers between √19 and √90, establishing that √19 is approximately 4.36 and √90 is about 9.49. By subtracting these two values, the difference is found to be 5.1279. Applying the floor function to this result yields the greatest integer less than or equal to 5.1279, which is 5. Therefore, there are 5 integers between √19 and √90.

How many integers are there between √19 and √90
 
Mathematics news on Phys.org
$4\lt\sqrt{19}\lt5$ and $9\lt\sqrt{90}\lt10$
 
Subtract the lower number from the higher number.

√90 - √19 = 5.1279

Then use the "floor" function on 5.1279. If you are unfamiliar, floor(x) = the greatest integer <= x. (Basically round down)

So the number of integers between these two values is floor(5.1279)=5.
 
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...
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...
