I got fucked this term by my first proof-based class. I want to practice some more since I'd rather believe it was difficult because I fell behind rather than come to terms with my brainletism. Does anyone have a good set of practice proof problems? If relevant, we got up to constructing the real numbers.

Those two don't really have anything to do with each other, tho.
If you're talking about how many houses will be absorbed, that's an extremely complex problem.

>If he is talking about sponges, then the relationship is just the conservation of mass.
No, more something like "if a sponge has instantaneous absorption velocity of 5 liters per second, how many liters can it still absorb".
Although the surface area should also factor in somewhere.

Conjecture A: Jannies dislike Judyposter for the same reasons they dislike Yukariposter, namely being homosexual (specifically being interested in men, wouldn't know the finicky stuff), calling people honey and posting slightly lewd images sometimes.
The evidence that corroborates this is Yukarianon's posts vanishing every now and then.
Conjectue B: They also dislike him for the furry stuff.
Conjecture C: The jannies really like Touhou, and were becoming progressively more annoyed at Judyposter for making these threads.

A determinant does two things:

>the volume only zeroes when we can squeeze the parallelogram inside a hyperplane, so it also tells you when the matrix doesn't inject
>because det(A)det(B)=det(AB), it tells you how the linear transformation changes volume
Sheldon Axler, the pedagogical genius of our time, grasped two fundamental facts:
>determinants are an extremely intuitive and useful geometric concept, but hard to motivate algebraically
>the average student struggles with geometry like fish struggles with breathing air
So he wrote up a paper, which can be read here: https://www.maa.org/programs/maa-awards/writing-awards/down-with-determinants
which uses algebraic arguments about factoring polynomials and the like to prove classical results in linear algebra and has amazing quotations, such as
>We'll define the determinant of a matrix to be the product of its eigenvalues (counting multiplicities). This easy-to-remember definition leads to the usual formulas for computing determinants.

A differential equation is a function expressed using one or more of its derivatives.
Find a solution to a differential equation essentially boils down to finding (or otherwise expressing) the original function.
How then does solving a differential equation differ from integration/antidifferentiating?

I think I get the intuitive idea of the material derivative, and I get how the definition is derived from the chain rule. But I don't get the final step in this derivation of the "balance in momentum equation" (see pic related).
The RHS of equation (BM1) is simply the total forces acting on a parcel of liquid, but on the LHS, why is the acceleration the material derivative of u (Du/Dt) and NOT just the regular derivative (du/dt)?

At time t, if I am concentrating on the force acting at point (x, y, z), then I am concerned with the acceleration of the fluid at point (x,y, z) at time t, and how is that not just du / dt?

intuitively it's pretty clear that the only way that it would maintain the same zero locus is if all the whole result is multiplied by the same term, and then the only way that could happen uniformly is if the polynomial is homogenous, because otherwise the terms could have different powers of the constant. is that good enough for a proof or am i a brainlet?

First, forget momentum and Newton's law and let's just think about kinematics and why we use the material derivative. Suppose you have a streamline in $\mathbb{R}^3$ . By definition of streamline, this is the path fluid takes in space and is tangent everywhere to the velocity of the fluid at that point. At every point along that streamline, let's suppose the fluid has some arbitrary vector quantity, say $\mathbf{B}$ . Notice that if you change position along the streamline a tiny little bit, the quantity $\mathbf{B}$ will change a corresponding tiny little bit. Likewise if you increment time a tiny bit. This means $\text{d}\mathbf{B}$ is an EXACT differential. Now think of a small differential volume (like a cube, dxdydx) somewhere on the streamline. If $\mathbf{B}$ is a function of time as well as space, then the change in $\mathbf{B}$ will depend not only on the size of the cube but also the velocity through the cube. It is a mathematical property of exact differentials that we can hence write

$\text{d}\mathbf{B}=\frac{\partial \mathbf{B}}{\partial t}\text{d}t+\frac{\partial x}{\partial t}\frac{\partial\mathbf{B}}{\partial x}\text{d}t+\frac{\partial y}{\partial t}\frac{\partial\mathbf{B}}{\partial y}\text{d}t+\frac{\partial z}{\partial t}\frac{\partial\mathbf{B}}{\partial z}\text{d}t$

Now, divide by dt and use the definitions of the velocity vector and the gradient to write

$\frac{\text{d}\mathbf{B}}{\text{d}t}=\frac{\partial \mathbf{B}}{\partial t}+\mathbf{u}\cdot\nabla\mathbf{B}$

(To be cont)

(2)

Therefore, along a STREAMLINE, the time derivative operator is

$\frac{\text{d}}{\text{d}t}=\frac{\text{D}}{\text{D}t}=\frac{\partial}{\partial t}+\mathbf{u}\cdot\nabla$
Now, the d/dt notation and D/Dt notation technically mean the same thing, but fluid mech authors often choose the latter to remind you that you are talking about the derivative along a STREAMLINE. So, if you are talking about the momentum along a STREAMLINE, you must use the material derivative. What you have in your pic is the Euler equation of fluid motion, or the momentum equation for inviscid flow. Your text should derive that. But hopefully now you know why you use that material derivative operator.

Something something consider the polynomial's term of highest degree h(x) and the remainder f(x)-h(x)=r(x), where we use x to denote the triple just because.
Either h(x)=r(x)=0 at all points where f(x)=0, or h(x)=r(x)=a=/=0 somewhere.
If the first, you remove common factors as usual, and consider the other case.
If the latter, fix x and consider the polynomial in the variable a p(a)=h(ax)-r(ax), where a multiplies pointwise yada yada.
Then p(a) has some number of zeroes, and if one of them falls out of the point 0, we're done by contradiction, and if it has a zero of multiplicity n at zero, we're also done, because it's homogenous.

Filling in the gaps is left as an exercise for the reader.

For example, when trying to hydrogenate the double bond in pent-2-ene, is there some other rule as to which side will get the hydrogen and which one will get the x from Hx, or is it all down to the catalyst?

Yes you could. One of the most fundamental problems in pharmacy is making sure that medicine is as uniform as possible across an entire batch. It would suck if a single pill of your month-worth bottle of heart medication had all the actual active principle and all the rest were duds, wouldn't it? At any rate, of course, you shouldn't start or stop taking meds without informing your doctor. Are you on any other meds for the same reason? Because if you have depression, you really don't want to go any length of time without any medication in your system.

Homosexuality is a social construct. A bit of a cliche, I know, but them's the breaks. You don't "cure" people of their homosexuality so much as cure society at large of homophobia, which is the actual pathology.

What the fuck is the derivative with respect to gamma
$\log\left(\frac{n}{\sum_{i=1}^nx_i^{-\gamma}}\right)$

I have tried to different ways and got 2 different answers since I am stupid as fuck, if I rewrite it as $n\log(n)-n\log(\sum_{i=1}^nx_i^{-\gamma})$ then I get that the derivative is $-n \frac{\sum_{i=1}^nx_i^{-\gamma}\log(x_i)}{\sum_{i=1}^nx_i^{-\gamma}}$ and if I don't I get $\sum_{i=1}^nx_i^{-\gamma}\sum_{i=1}^nx_i^{-\gamma}log(x_i)$

First, we'll consider $l : \mathbb{R}^4 \rightarrow R$ defined by returning the sum of the coefficients.
So $V_1= \{v \in \mathbb{R}^4 such that l(v)=1$ .
l(v) has some nice properties that make it a linear functional. This means that $l(u+v)=l(u)+l(v)$ and $l( \lambda u)= \lambda l(u)$ .
Start by finding v. So you have that the outside element in $V_2$ has l(v)=1+2+3+4=10, so you need to pick an element of the generated subspace with l(u)=-9 by manipulating the above properties.
Then, you consider combinations of the $V_2$ subspace's generators with l(u)=0. Find two, and you're finished.

>the harmonic series divied by two
*Half the sum of the harmonic series.

Either all the n that get in the sum are even or odd. I'm not fiddling with powers to find out. If they're even, pass a two backwards and compare with harmonic. If they're odd, compare with the even (i.e. 1/n>1/(n+1) )part of the sum and apply above.

All "energy" is an abstraction. But it still "exists" in the sense that it allows us to predict the evolution of a system. Potential energy is just as real as kinetic energy or thermal energy or energy stored in an electromagnetic field, etc.

I've arrived at several sequence of numbers, by a process which is too convoluted to describe here. The first three sequences are related to mod 8, and possibly to the prime numbers 7, 11, and 13, respectively. The fourth sequence is related to mod 48, and possibly to the prime number 11. Can anyone identify any patterns in these?

mod 8 sequence:
>3, 4, 7, 4, 7, 4, 7, 4
>5, 2, 4, 6, 3, 6, 4, 2
>7, 5, 6, 7, 5, 7, 6, 7

mod 48 sequence:
>3, 26, 5, 10, 5, 11, 15, 4, 16, 10, 5, 9, 15, 16, 5, 15, 10, 5, 15, 11, 14, 20, 11, 5, 9, 5, 11, 20, 14, 11, 15, 5, 10, 15, 5, 16, 15, 9, 5, 10, 16, 4, 15, 11, 5, 10, 5, 26

I have been wrapping these sequences around into circles, with the first number in the sequence on top. The circle is always symmetrical across the vertical, and seems to have some other interesting properties too- summing every other number in the mod 8 circles adds up to 0 mod 8, for example. This might be a red herring though, because I can't do the same for the big mod 48 circle. I also can't explain why there are so many multiples of 5 in the mod 48 sequence.

If anyone notices any patterns in these please let me know!

Yes. At least, I've plugged the sequences into their search and it tells me "the terms do not match anything in the table." I don't know if there's a more adept way to use it- e.g. to apply mod 8 to all their sequences and compare my first three sequences to those? Because "4" here could just as easily be -4, or 12, or something.

hey sci i need some advice. I just finished up my first semester, studying aerospace engineering at college and I think I did poorly and I'm thinking about dropping out. I got a 3.5 gpa and based on my standards from high school, thats very, very bad, but I spoke with my parents about it (dad hasnt graduated high school and mom dropped out of AS degree) and they think im crazy for being disappointed in myself and wanting to drop out. I think that I should drop out, in order to not waste more time or money by failing out of the future, harder classes.
What I'm wondering is this: are these results objectively bad or good, from someone familiar with higher education, and how much harder do engineering classes get? I somewhat want to study cfd in grad school does this result harm my chances of doing that in the future?

Okay guys, it's me again. I think I figured it out. I think they are related to rows of this 8*8 matrix:
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]
[2, 6, 5, 1, 8, 4, 3, 7]
[3, 5, 1, 7, 2, 8, 4, 6]
[4, 1, 7, 6, 3, 2, 8, 5]
[5, 8, 2, 3, 6, 7, 1, 4]
[6, 4, 8, 2, 7, 1, 5, 3]
[7, 3, 4, 8, 1, 5, 6, 2]
[8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1]

Obviously there's some kind of pattern here, the edges are especially obvious as they are just counting up or down. But I'd rather not right out the whole matrix for the 48*48 version. Is there some formula that concisely describes this matrix? Some property that generates its elements?

It is never explicitly stated but when you use a normal distribution as a model, for instance, you're assuming measurements are some iid rv's X_i conditioned on some static mean, variance. {X_i | M=m ? S=s} or something similar. This is what's used for the likelihood in the typical frequentist analysis.

We may, however use Bayes theorem to treat these parameters as being random themselves. The benefits of this are: it's easier to interpret, you can incorporate known or believed information into your analysis. Like what's the probability of the probability of an event being between .4 & .6?

The downsides are: why tf should I trust your prior, the distribution attached to the random parameters (there are """""objective""""" methods for selecting these, & asymptotic results for normality). That and you get into application, often times the solutions can be exceedingly difficult to calculate or require heavy computation. The way they wrote stuff in your pic is a bit confusing, you're not that much of a dumdum desu. It's all derived from the first theorem & some corresponding math stat.

Alright, alright.
Imagine you have a sack with two coins. One coin in it is cheated and falls on heads 90% of the time, while the remainder are normal.
You pick a random coin in the sack, and thow it 10 times. It falls on heads 9 times. So you stop, and you think "I've probably gotten the cheated coin."
Now, suppose the sack has a billion coins.You'll stop, and you'll think "I probably haven't gotten the cheated coin out of one billion, I was just unlucky with the throws."

Stop thinking about coins, and imagine you're a scientist. You're studying this random event.
So sometimes, you can pretend that there's a sack of random events, and that you randomly got one the one you're studying from the sack, and that the sack has some sort of distribution on it. So, say, the average distribution in the sack has average 5, or something along those lines.

Bayesian statistics is essentially that sort of thing.
Refer to anon's post for the formalism.

I think maybe I should actually be looking the matrix mod 9? If I do that, and convert the right half into negatives, the pattern becomes even clearer:

[ 1, 2, 3, 4, -4, -3, -2, -1]
[ 2, -3, -4, 1, -1, 4, 3, -2]
[ 3, -4, 1, -2, 2, -1, 4, -3]
[ 4, 1, -2, -3, 3, 2, -1, -4]
[-4, -1, 2, 3, -3, -2, 1, 4]
[-3, 4, -1, 2, -2, 1, -4, 3]
[-2, 3, 4, -1, 1, -4, -3, 2]
[-1, -2, -3, -4, 4, 3, 2, 1]

I still can't come up with a formula for it though.
e.g. something for the jth element of the ith row.

A formula for that matrix would be (7 - abs(j-4.5) - abs(i-4.5)) mod 4 + 1.

All that is given online about stds is that bacteria that creates stds are found in semen, blond, etc.. So metaphorically speaking we are suffering from the same mechanism that works in The Walking Dead. On a technical level every human being is on the road to being infected with an std. We all carry std causing bacteria. Why does the bacteria "evolve" humans into std creatures with outside the confines of marriage sex?

alternatively by contradiction:

suppose two subsequences converge to two different values, and further that the sequence converges. pick epsilon to be half of the smallest distance between the three convergence values. then the contradiction arises when you find that there are infinitely many values attained by the sequence that are bigger than epsilon

your book sucks then.
You know why $\dot{s}=-2k$ , right? That means that the rate of change of side length is constant, and side length runs from $s_0$ to $0$ . So $\Delta s=-s_0$ . But "time" is equal to (change)/(rate) so $t=\frac{-\Delta s}{-\dot{s}}=\frac{s_0}{2k}$
Basically, just use definite integrals. This is the most direct way to understand this without hand-waving.

The problem is to find the maximum- and minimum area created by the area of the triangle ABC where $k>1$ , see pic related the light-blue area. Point A is the intersection point of equation
$f(x)=k\cdot k^{x}$
and
$g(x)k\cdot(\frac{1}{k}^{x})$ . Point B and C are created by the tangent lines of their respective equation as they are intersecting the x axies.

Also, merry christmas

$B=( - \frac{1}{\log k}, 0)$ , and since f(x)=g(-x), $C=(\frac{1}{\log k}, 0)$ .
Since $A=(0, k)$ , the area is $\frac{k}{\log k}$ .
This goes to infinity when k goes to either one (since log 1=0) or infinity (since k grows faster than log k).
Calculating the derivative and equalling to zero, you get log k=1, and k=e.

First we notice that $\ln$ maps $\mathbb{C}\setminus\{0\} \cong\mathbb{C}^* \rightarrow S^1 \times (0,\infty)= C_\infty$ to the semiinfinite cylinder on the principal branch, hence we see that $f: \mathbb{C}^*\rightarrow \mathbb{C}^*$ defined by $f(z) = z^z$ pulls back to $\ln f : C_\infty\rightarrow C_\infty$ as $\ln f(z) = z \ln z = z(\ln r + i\theta)$ . Hence holomorphicity of $f$ on $\mathbb{C}^*$ is equivalent to holomorphicity of $\ln f$ on $C_\infty$ . We can then develop the Laurent series for $z\ln z$ on $C_\infty$ then push it forward back down to $\mathbb{C}^*$ to obtain a Laurent series for $z^z$ .

it measures either the change in (signed) volume before and after a transformation, or it measures (signed) volumes themselves. even shorter answer is: it just has to do with volumes. but often they don't tell you any of this. they just give you an ugly formula together with one application (matrix is invertible iff determinant is non-zero) without any geometric insight.

Do you not understand it? Do you not see how it is applicable to solving problems? Do you not understand the empirical or mathematical basis for energy? Does the meaning behind conservation of energy escape you? Do you not understand why a force vector field can usually be assumed to have a potential?

"Energy" is represented by $H\in C^\infty(M)$ on a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ , called a Hamiltonian function. The Hamiltonian vector field $X_H$ satisfies $dH + \iota_{X_H}\omega = 0$ , and it always exists and is unique. In quantum mechanics, the energy is represented by the a local Hermitian operator $H$ called the Hamiltonian, which generates the ESA operator of time evolution $U(t) = \exp\left(-i Ht\right)$ with a dense domain of definition.
In either case, the kinetic energy $K$ is defined as the "maximal" term in $H$ that is bilinear; namely $K = Q_q(q,q) + Q_p(p,p)$ for some ( $c$ -number or operator) quadratic forms $Q_{q,p}$ , invariant under symmetries of $H$ , and such that the potential energy $H - K$ cannot be written in terms of a single dependence on $Q_{q,p}$ . By this definition, the potential energy always exists.

$\vec{p}$ is a four-momentum and $\delta$ is the dirac function

The equality is after integration $\int_M d^4p \delta(p_0 - E) = \int_{\Sigma_E} d^3p$ , where $\Sigma_E = \{p\mid p_0 = E\}\subset M$ is a constant-energy surface.

Two segments are perpendicular only if the inner product between two unit vectors along those segments is zero. The inner (or dot) product between these vectors is defined as (rise in seg 1)(rise in seg 2)+(run in seg 1)(run in seg 2)=0. You know the rise and run in 1, solve for slope 2 and you get that it is the neg reciprocal of slope 1.

By that method every four points will have a different equation though.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilinear_interpolation
>It is assumed that we know the value of f at the four points Q11 = (x1, y1), Q12 = (x1, y2), Q21 = (x2, y1), and Q22 = (x2, y2).

For example, practicing on the four points in the center of this matrix:
[ 1, 2, 3, 4, -4, -3, -2, -1]
[ 2, -3, -4, 1, -1, 4, 3, -2]
[ 3, -4, 1, -2, 2, -1, 4, -3]
[ 4, 1, -2, 3, -3, 2, -1, -4]
[-4, -1, 2, -3, 3, -2, 1, 4]
[-3, 4, -1, 2, -2, 1, -4, 3]
[-2, 3, 4, -1, 1, -4, -3, 2]
[-1, -2, -3, -4, 4, 3, 2, 1]

I got the formula:
f(x,y) = 243 -54x -54y +12xy

This works for those four points, but when I plugged in x = 1, y = 1, I got f(1, 1) = 147, when it's supposed to be 1.

I'm planning to get a PhD in physics and continue in research, I've got my BSc degree in pure physics and currently I'm doing my MSc of research in nanomaterials in the same university, I was accepted in prestigious Universities in the country but decided to stay in the same one even though I hate this MSc because one of my professors told me that he will GUARANTEE me doing great project with me, especially that he has some good contacts and his level is incredible.

The problem is that the education is fucking shit, some professors aren't serious, it happens often that I correct two professors who are dumb cunts.

This University is ranked 49th/100 universities in the country, will graduating from it affect my CV?
It would be fucked up since I was accepted in top 10 universities in the country and didn't take them.

Can't speak in general terms, but from what I've seen, experience and know from colleagues .. it weighs way more with whom you do your final thesis with, what the quality of your work is etc. Get a paper in a nice journal out of it, if possible, attend a conference and whatnot. I doubt anyone will care about where you did your undergrad.

At least to some degree. If you come out with a completely shitty physics background, then even a great thesis and great supervisor might not fully save you. I doubt that's the case though. If your prof has good contacts, that might be worth it alone - you can get in touch with those people about PhDs, yadda yadda.

The USA was the only place I've been to where the uni ranking mattered for undergrad. Maybe the UK to a smaller extent.

How do we determine an object's velocity after a force has been applied? Assuming it was either at rest or in constant velocity before hand, and in an inertial reference frame.
Is it simply the vector sum of its original velocity (before the force was applied) + acceleration * time (how long the force was applied)?

Not quite. This is only true for constant net force/acceleration. Use the impulse-momentum theorem.
$\Delta\mathbf{v}=\int_{t_1}^{t_2}\frac{\mathbf{F}_{net}}{m}\text{ d}t$
Or you can use energy methods like the work-energy theorem, or variational methods. Mechanics can be as complicated as you want.

I'm very meticulous and tend to make things overly complicated because I want to understand it inside and out before moving on. Do you have a text you would recommend for someone who has had a fair amount of mathematics but has never actually taken a physics course?
Also, just to be clear, we actually get our final velocity (the objects velocity after the force(s)) by adding the initial velocity to the RHS of the equation? And tto find its position we simply integrate over velocity from t1 to t2 (plus initial position) ?

I may be wrong here but if the random phase differences are uniformly distributed in [0,2pi] then the expected value of our sum of N randomly phase shifted sine waves is 0 and the variance is N/2pi.

So we can expect the amplitude to increase linearly with N.

Certainly we can bound the amplitude of the sum by N. I wonder what we can say about the amplitude growth given the statistics found earlier and this bound.
