    Hyperbole formula

    Sorry i still dont really understand the whole postulating thing. How can someone just think of let b^2 = a^2(1-e^2) or let b^2 = a^2(e^2-1) Or is that the whole point of a postulate and then by using values of "e" you equate b? Since P(x,y) is any point of the ellipse curve, can't i sub in...

    Hyperbole formula

    Hey uhm...can you explain to me how you actually think of postulating it? Because i dont understand how you can show that 'b' is the extreme point on the hyperbola. So yea can you just explain how you postulate it and it's thought processes thanks lol.

    Hyperbole formula

    Hey i was just wondering how you would derive the hyperbola formula. This is how i derived the ellipse formula: Ellipse with major axis (x) 2a and minor axis (y) 2b, center (0,0) point A(a,0) is at extremity of major axis, B(0,b) is extremity at minor axis Point S (k,0) and S'(-k,0) where 0<k<a...

    Piezoelectric effect?

    According to my physics teacher... Piezo electric effect: A piezoelectric crystal contains dipole atoms within it. When a piezoelectric crystal is compressed (preassure is applied to both ends) it lines up the dipole atoms, creating a potential difference (used in transducers to receive the...

    Resisted Motion

    \int \frac{1}{v + v^3}dv \frac{1}{v(1+v^2)} \equiv \frac{a}{v} + \frac{bv +c}{1+v^2} 1\equiv a(1+v^2) + bv^2 + cv v = 0, a = 1 Compare Coefficients x^2 : a + b = 0 b=-1 v = 1, 2a + b +c = 1 c=0 \int \frac{1}{v+v^3}dv = \int \frac{1}{v}-\frac{v}{1+v^2}dv \int \frac{1}{v+v^3}dv = ln(v)...

    Volumes!

    SO GLAD I WAS ABLE TO DO THIS! this is how i done it eqn of circle : x^2 + y^2 = 4 with P(x,y) , Q(x,-y) area of parabola with base 2y and height 2y ( using simpson's area rule) h = y y0=0 y1=2y y2=0 A= y/3(8y) DeltaArea = (8y^2)/3 Deltax = 8/3 (4-x^2) deltax Area =...
