AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the difficulty of understanding the transition between two specific equations in a document related to orbital mechanics. One participant suggests that posting the equations directly in the forum would be more helpful than relying on external links. Another participant argues that the PDF contains additional valuable information that cannot be replicated in the forum. There is a consensus that including both the equations and the link would enhance clarity and assist those trying to help. The conversation emphasizes the importance of accessibility in complex mathematical discussions.

If you look on the last page http://www.mathhelpboards.com/f49/orbital-mechanics-notes-3682/, you will see the some equations. I don't see how to go from the 2nd to last equation to the last equation.

It may be better to post the equations in question here in this topic, rather than sending folks chasing after links. (Wondering)

No. The pdf has more to offer then what I can do on the forum.
 
You specifically asked how to get from the second to last to the last equation.

If it were me, I would include those two equations in the body of the post for the convenience of our helpers, and then also include the link to the pdf for more information.
 

Thread 'Non-orthogonal bases'

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 'What Exactly is Dirac’s Delta Function? - Insight'

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...
