Program for absolute value graphs

AI Thread Summary
Several online programs can graph functions, including absolute value graphs, quadratics, and cubics. Notable options include IDL and Supermongo for astronomy users, while Microsoft offers a simple tool for Windows XP users. Calc101.com allows users to graph functions and perform symbolic differentiation and integration, with basic features available for free. Users should utilize parentheses for grouping terms and square brackets for standard functions when inputting data. These resources provide accessible solutions for graphing mathematical functions online.

Is there any program online that can draw graphs ie. absolute value graphs, quadratics, cubics ...
 
Physics news on Phys.org
There are a ton of programs that do this (in astronomy circles, IDL and supermongo are popular), but if you just want something simple and you have Windows XP, you can try the http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx.

The following on-line Web Site can graph {y=f(x)} in addition to performing symbolic differentiation and integration. Remember to use Parentheses "()" to group terms and Square Brackets for standard functions like "sin[x^2 + 3]" and "exp[x*sin[3*x^5] + 4]". Use menu in upper right corner of home page to choose. (Basic capabilities are free and do not need password. Additional can be purchased.)

Thread 'Errors and significant figures'

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging 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...
