2/3 of the perimeter of the pentagon is visible. Is that too much? That's a rhetorical question.
>>
>>16894278
Harmonic oscillations happen in something. String, gas or field. What the hell are "bundles of energy" and what's their vibration means? It's nonsense. If an equation looks like vibrations that doesn't mean you should postulate vibrations.
>>
>>16894302
Things like the wiki quote are just dumbed down pop-sci answers, not detailed scientific explanations. If you want the latter go look elsewhere.

> Harmonic oscillations happen in something
In the theory "strings" are fundamental, in the same way you are taught in high school particles like electrons are thought to be. The energy strings have then comes from their modes of vibration just like any vibration you are familiar with has energy.
>>
>>16894302
The point is, harmonic oscillations are a related physical phenomenon but harmonic oscillators are a formalism. Even if unispired, looking for new applications of the same old formalism may be naive but it is not schizophrenic. Your complaint seems to be about the word salad coming from taking said formalism at face value.
>>16894366
It seems that this is no different from the "luminiferous aether" word salad of 19th century electromagnetism
>>
>>16894372
The aether wasn't a terrible idea, it was actually good science. Until then every type of wave scientists had encountered required a medium. When the newly discovered electromagnetism turned out to be a bunch of wave equations it wasn't a stupid assumption to believe there also had to be some unseen medium they moved in - the aether. It took breaking that mindset, and some experiments, to advance physics.

String theory has many problems, it could very well be wrong, but it's very different to how the concept of the aether arose.
>>
>>16894409
>String theory has many problems, it could very well be wrong, but it's very different to how the concept of the aether arose.
The analogy with aether is not about string thery as whole, but about said dumbed down pop-sci talk of "bundles of energy vibrating", because something has to be vibrating, right? Just like every wave needs a medium. Even better, let's throw in a semantically overloaded word like "energy".
>>
>>16894438
Actually vibration and energy are the most scientifically accurate and precise words in the whole description. Their use is no different to that of QM or QFT.
>>
>>16894366
Thanks for the answer.
>just like any vibration you are familiar with has energy
The vibration I'm familiar with has constant or dissipating energy, energy is not the thing that vibrates, that's why it's frustrating. I'm bachelor in biomech.

Electrons... they feel kinda fundamental because they match fundamental math idea of a point. Even if electron somehow consists of other particles, they better to be points. There's nothing less than a point.
>>
>>16894806
Unfortunately, even if points make the math simple and and easy, they can't physically be true. If electrons really were zero-volume points they would have infinite mass and charge densities. That's simply not possible.

What is the purpose of the Neutrino? It travels at the sped of light, but there are claims it has mass which cannot be true if it travels at c. Or, is the rest mass so small it can actually travel at c? Is it just excess energy and not actually a particle?
>>
>>16895250
Our best understanding is that neutrinos have a very very tiny but nonzero mass, and that they "travel at c" simply because we have no detector sensitive enough to pick up on the difference.
>>
>>16895250
The neutrino masses as so small that they 'effectively' travel at the speed of light (but NOT at c). The difference is so tiny that a neutrino coming from another galaxy millions of light-years away would only be delayed compared to a photon by a few seconds, if that.
>>
>>16895263
>"travel at c"
>>16895323
>'effectively' travel at the speed of light
If time slows as velocity approaches c, from the nuetrino's perspective how does it have time to interact with anything since it essentially is emitted and travels across the universe instantly?

Why doesn't science acknowledge the biological reality of race when there are numerous genetic distinctions/adaptations that every race has?
How many more distinctions need to exist before they recognize that we are clearly not all the same?
>>
>>16895851
>Why doesn't science acknowledge the biological reality of race
Race, and species, but politics has overridden science and deformed it to not hurt people's feelings. How do you tell the retarded race they are a subspecies?
>>
>>16895843
Interactions are about position, not time. They aren't affected by time dilation. However scattering cross sections are dependant on energy and that dependency can be complicated, so in that regard the likelihood of a particular interaction does depend on kinetic energy (velocity).
>>
>>16895851
> Why doesn't science acknowledge the biological reality of race
Because there is no scientific way to rigorously define some biological category and label it as race. It's a purely social construction.

>>16895920
No. It doesn't matter how fast your camera is, it's still a measurement and any measurement collapses the wavefunction and removes any uncertainty in the location of the particle.
>>
>>16895895
The retarded race wouldn't exist if it didn't have some strength in it. Race reality doesn't entail superiority necesarrily, people should at least acknowledge different climate based strengths.

>Hair color, eye color, facial structure
>Nose shape/size differences following Thomson's Nose Rule

I once read about a book online that teaches how math should be done. It wasn't about something specific like calculus.
I think it lets the student find its own formulas to solve the problem and the solutions were open.
Does anyone know the name of the book?
Thanks
>>
>>16896166
You don't use any kind of subjective rule, it's simply acknowledging that people who have lived in a particular climate for hundreds if not thousands of generations are generally better suited for that climate, thus making them a distinct race, with a distinct subset of traits.
More obviously, look are somebody with Blonde Hair and Blue eyes, you would clearly acknowledge that they descend from Nordics, provided they're not mixed.

>>16896170
Why would I pick arbitrary characteristics? These traits are generally persistent in racial groups, and they are so numerous it isn't even a matter of debate.
Clearly somebody with less melanin isn't going to do well in a hot climate, how is this not obvious? There is no obfuscating the fact that we are genetically acclimatized for certain climates, and if your argument is that "Mixed People Exist," you'd have to acknowledge that they aren't acclimatized to any one particular argument, because they have disparate genetic adaptations.

In three dimensions: One. Rotating around multiple axes at once is going to be equivalent to rotating around another individual axis. See Euler's rotation theorem.

what is the largest particle/atom that can be used in the double slit experiment, and how does particle size affect wave-particle properties, and if a particle is large enough can it me monitored with a photon without altering the outcome?
>>
>>16896364
There is no limit and the particle size doesn't affect the wave-particle properties. However it does affect the angle of diffraction. The interference pattern depends on the distance between the slits and the detector, the width of the slits, and the de Broglie wavelength of the particle, molecule, buckyballs, whatever. The tl;dr is that it's easier to perform the experiment and see the interference with small, single particles.
>>
I keep thinking about creep. How it never stops. But surely it must stop eventually, right? Gravity is a constant load but atoms will run out of places to move. Assuming proton decay isn't a thing, won't the earth eventually become a sub-atomically perfect sphere of iron? Then it won't creep anymore from gravity. My question then is what happens then when you place a cube of lead onto this perfect iron sphere. It's softer than the iron so gravity means it will slowly collapse until the cube has become a 1 atom thick layer coating on the sphere, right? But will the atoms distribute in a perfectly uniform distance from eachother or will it be like a splotch on one part of the sphere which introduces new forces onto the once perfect sphere making the entire thing shift around slowly until it evens out again... idk, this is a stupid thing to post. Just musing.
>>
>>16896403
It the inter-atomic bonds are stronger than any other forces acting on them then no, there will never be any creep no matter how long you wait. That is almost the definition of what a solid is. You also have to realise that electromagnetism is *way* stronger than gravity. It's why a small magnet can lift objects despite the gravitational force of the entire planet.
>>
Is there a rate limit at which particle interactions can occurr - two particles are moving past each other too fast, even if very close, to have any interaction (as depicted on a feyman diagram). What the speed/rate of the gluon interactions, or does that question make any sense? I think 'science communicators' have filled the space with inaccurate gibberish and everywhere I look I see incorrect info.
>>
>>16896339
>These traits are generally persistent in racial groups
"These traits are generaly persistent in groups which I've defined using these traits"
Okay, and others can define groups based on other traits, so it's obviously a social construct.
>somebody with less melanin isn't going to do well in a hot climate, how is this not obvious?
How is it relevant? Another trait you mentioned is eye and hair color, which are obviously not important to survival in humans.

None. And no scientific mechanism they could or should exist.

>>16896420
Why does creep cause objects to permanently deformed at under half their yield strength and melting temperatures tho
>>
>>16896630
It depends on the specific material you are talking about and it's purity. There are lots of mechanisms for "creep", it's not a simple process. For example if something is full of grains and dislocations those inter-region bonds are weaker and can break under stress from say temperature changes, especially in materials with lower melting points (i.e lead) - thermodynamics after all does state that statistically speaking there will randomly be a few particles with enough kinetic energy to affect weaker bonds.

String theory is literally just math with extra flair. Could I get into string theory research with ease as a pure mathematician?
>>
>>16896642
It's an extremely mathematical field so if that's your strength it will absolutely help in topics like AdS/CFT correspondence, but in the end you still need to a good grasp of the physics you're trying to create a theory for. However, getting into ST right now might not be a smart idea. Depending on who you ask, ST is either a dying field of research - there's still plenty of people working on it but not as many as there once was - or one that needs to move in new directions since the work of the last several decades hasn't led to anything testable or a eureka moment that says "yup, this theory is correct and how the universe works." For example AdS and supersymmetry and extra dimensions are the only way the math of ST works, unfortunately all we have ever seen in our 3D universe is dS and no supersymmetry.
>>
>>16896153
>very clear distinctions between Europeans, Asians, Blacks
>and every group in between
Then those "groups in between" are the biological reality, while race is not.
>>
>>16896721
Those groups in between are the product of historical examples of mixing in the past between the preestablished racially homogenized group, which once faced with their own selection pressures form their own unique subset of people who are acclimatized to their particular environment.

>>16896511
>Okay, and others can define groups based on other traits, so it's obviously a social construct.
Your argument is absurd, we could use this same line of reasoning to deconstruct everything:
>"A bird has wings and eyes, which you've arbitrarily selected to make your argument, therefor it's impossible for birds or dogs to be different from one another, Animals are all a social construct.
>How is it relevant?
Because we are defining the traits of a particular thing. A dog does not have wings, because it is a dog, not a bird. A White person has less melanin, because a White person is not a Black person (among other signifiers).
>not important to survival in humans.
Well if civilization is important to humans, then clearly the homogenization of external features would hold weight for their survival. Society does not function as well from disparate values, the more people have in common, especially on a surface level, the stronger their sense of identity will be. Conversely a society where nobody looks like one another is going to be less trusting, and have a less stable sense of its own identity, hence every historical and modern example to date.

Infants begin to show preferential treatment for same-race faces over other-race faces by approximately 3 months of age
>https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7349221/
It's no secret, if you study history Multi-Ethnic and Multi-cultural societies are not typically healthy or functional, not as long lasting as ethnically homogenized cultures. The examples are so numerous: Rome, Greece, Babylon, etc.
People trust somebody who looks like them more then somebody who doesn't share their physical features, there are a lot of studies on this, most try to falsely attribute it to socio economics and exposure to other faces, but the fact that this pattern even exists in the first place suggests a preference for ones own racial group.

Hormonal imbalance quite literally affects every part of your body, your mood regulation, your organs, even your cellular health, cognition, literally everything is thrown out of wack when you introduce hormones that set you out of natural sex based balance.
It's different for men who take testosterone because their bodies are already conditioned for testosterone, though I'd argue steroids aren't healthy just because they're unnatural and it's a lot harder to keep your body in balance.

Clearly, nothing in what I said implies that dogs are birds. In taxonomy, what is not a construct is the existence of animals and their ancestries. The classification into different species is done to reflect facts about animal ancestries. These facts constrain the classifications into species but cannot uniquely determine them so there are still lots of free choices involved in defining species. In that sense, it is a construct but unlike 'race' it is done by zoologists, etc. rather than laypeople who are afraid of other skin colors. All of this, except perhaps the last sentence, should be obvious.
>Society does not function as well from disparate values [...]
All of this pseudoscientific pop-sociology is really irrelevant to the fact that having certain eye and hair colors is unimportant for the survival of humans in certain climates.

I've been going through Gensler's Intro to Logic and everything has been fine, no real difficulties. Now I'm on chapter 9 in the section on identity proofs and it feels like the first time in the book where he just doesn't explain anything nearly enough, provides barely any examples before giving problem sets, and to make matters worse, I believe there's an incorrect answer given in the solutions manual (only the second one I've found so far) but I can't confirm this and I haven't seen any info elsewhere online about errata in the manual. I had no problem with the LogiCola problems assigned for this set either, which seemed more complex but at least I felt prepared for them. Am I suddenly retarded or has he shit the bed in this section? Can anyone suggest another book I could look at to get a better explanation of this topic (identity proofs)?

An even function is a function f(x) = f(-x)
An odd function is a function g(x) = -g(-x)
But why are they called even and odd? I keep forgetting which is which.
>>
>>16897253
Assuming the function is always raising or falling, for every element of codomain(result value), even function has even number of possible inputs and odd functions have odd number of possible inputs. Or in other words, if you draw a horizontal line on the function graph, even function will intersect if even number of times, vice versa.

>Clearly, nothing in what I said implies that dogs are birds.
Right, so clearly you didn't understand the rationality behind what I was saying.
>laypeople who are afraid of other skin colors.
Who said anything about fear?
The fact is, there are clear biological distinctions between different races of people, beyond simple skin tone even, distinctions of which you ignore in order to make your claims more tenable. There are very clearly Europeans, Africans, Asians, Easterners, etc, regardless of the semantics of the issue, there are clear distinctions, these distinctions don't disappear just because you don't want to acknowledge them.
We apply distinction to all things, that is the purpose of zoology, I'm simply stating that we can easily extend those definitions into different classifications, who despite sharing basic similarities, possess numerous climate based adaptations. Ignoring this fact shows that you're the one who is afraid, perhaps of reality.
>unimportant for the survival of humans in certain climates.
If a society is relevant to the survival of humans, then yes, being surrounded by people that look like you is important for society, and by extension survival.

>these distinctions don't disappear
Haven't we already gone through this already? The distinctions you draw depend on the traits you choose for making those distinctions. You choose to make distinctions based around skin color, others are free to choose different traits.
> possess numerous climate based adaptations
So far, the only trait that you mentioned which is clearly adapted to the 'climate' is skin color, and you've repeatedly failed to explain how eye and hair color are adaptations to the climate rather than just byproducts of different melanin levels.
>Show me an example of a successful multi-cultural society, I'll wait.
Most societies which have existed are 'multicultural' unless they were isolated from the rest of the world. Also, evolutionarily speaking, natural selection can't work if there's no variation and sexual reproduction guarantees that there will always be significant variations, so your idea that societies can be homogeneous is just a fantasy.

I just found a question on the internet which was asking which triangle has the maximum surface area for constant perimeter.

Of course the obvious answer is an equilateral triangle (proof by being obvious) but it made me wonder the following. What if you used the Heron's formula, and then you made a four-dimensional graph (since it has three variables instead of one, the graph is 4D) and then you found the maximum just like you would find a maximum by using derivatives for a normal 2D graph. Could you solve the problem in this way (it's probably not the easiest way but that's besides the point) and how would it work?

Or to simplify my question: is working with derivatives possible in higher dimensional graphs or multivariable graphs like that in the same sort of way as you would normally work with them?

I thought on this a little more, but if the L1s share 50% with their dam and 50% with their brother then would the L1 littermates be 50% related to the L2 litter? 25% from their shared dam as they're half sibs, then 25% for the niece/nephew, which implies they're only the equivalent of littermates while I thought the increased homozygosity from the inbreeding would somehow bump up the relatedness to maybe 62.5%.

I don't know how to properly calculate this.

I said people generally trust those who look like them more then those who don't, that doesn't necessitate the notion of fear, but a greater degree of trust then would otherwise be had.
>others are free to choose different traits.
So then I can choose to acknowledge bones and tendons are all that is necessary to create a bird, and thus dogs become birds simply because I dismiss all the other traits that differentiate them? The issue is not a matter of subjective classification, there are clear genetic distinctions between races, just as there are different kinds of dogs, and different kinds of birds, so would you say that separating a Blue Jay from a Cardinal is a subjective classification, or do you acknowledge that there are objective differences between the two?
>So far, the only trait that you mentioned which is clearly adapted to the 'climate' is skin color,
See >>16896153, Thomson's Nose Rule, Cellular adaptations, diet adaptions (Differences in Oral and Gut Microbiome), I have listed many differences already, and I can continue to list even more if it would satisfy you. There are numerous climate based adaptations.
Melanin content is a climate adaptation, hair and eye color are reflective of melanin content, thus they are one of the ways to signify the environment for which a person is adapted to genetically. Outside populations who have blonde hair is typically due to race mixing in the past.

>Most societies which have existed are 'multicultural'
Demonstrably false, we would not have the genetic variation we have if not for thousands of years of isolation and homogeneity, distinct traits would not have emerged. Also, Genetic Diversity already exists in every environment, too much genetic diversity results in a population who is not acclimatized to their environment, hence Outbreeding Depression.
You don't know what genetic diversity means.
Humans have existed homogeneously throughout all of human history, but you will try and dismiss this reality by deconstructing it
>Well what is race? Is race even real? I don't see race. None of those distinctions matter. Sure we can clearly see what region a non-mixed individual comes from from the traits they possess, but that doesn't mean anything, it's arbitrary, and you're delusional if you think otherwise.
>natural selection can't work if there's no variation and sexual reproduction
Selection pressure means that some traits are favored for their environments more than others, variation already exists even in a small population, as following the 50/500 rule you only need 500 people to avoid genetic recession, so clearly a large degree of genetic mixing from populations on entirely different corners of the world isn't necesarry, nor does it result in bettr health outcomes.
You may then try to cite hybrid vigor, a contradiction in itself as how could hybrid have greater vigor if we are all the same in the first place? Yet Hybrid Vigor only applies to immunological advantages to F1 hybrids (First Generation) which quickly dissipates in all subsequent generations.
Most studies on race are prefaced by saying they lack most the data they need, because the research is being gatekept. So I ask again, if all these traits and distinctions occur, why does science refuse to ask this question, why does it refuse to do the research?

It's not one of your standard axes, but it is a single axis nonetheless.
The actual mathematics get kind of ugly here, and, more importantly, writing matrices in LaTeX is a pain in the ass and I don't want to do it.
So to provide an example based on yours, let's say I rotate the straw about the Z-axis by 90 degrees and then about the X-axis by 90 degrees. I'm picking those numbers and making them completely discrete because it makes the calculations work out much easier. You can imagine the same principles applied to smaller and smaller movements until you're looking at something virtually continuous, should you feel so inclined.
Using the relevant yaw and roll matrices (not typing them up here because, again, matrices in LaTeX are a pain), we take their product and calculate its λ=1 eigenvector to find it is [math]1,-1,1[/math]; that would be the axis of such a combined rotation.

Well, we obviously can't picture graphs in higher
dimensions in a convenient way (unless we use
colors or something), but yes indeed we can take
multivariable derivatives of the function and classify
certain points to highlight features of that function
(max, min, saddle point, etc...). Pic related is a 3D
sphere with colors representing temperature as the
fourth dimension as an example.

Video I found that does an example problem without graphs:

So, you can take Heron's formula and apply it to
part of the surface residing in the first octant (+,+,+).

triangles as points forming the surface. The colors
forming a heatmap on the surface getting red at the
point of max surface area. Hopefully, you'll see that
it should match your answer.

So, as I mentioned already, they are not adaptations but accidental byproducts to the actual adaptation which is melanin. You can have mutations for producing light skin with brown eyes and not face any environmental selection pressure.

Of course you fail to demonstrate that in any sense because there is no way you can quantify what amount of genetic variation is healthy and what amount isn't. This means your entire worldview is built on vibes-based reasoning, just like the concept of 'race'.

Okay, so there is no reason whatsoever that people in northern climates have thinner noses, and people in warmer climates have wider noses. Cool story bro.

Since you can't fucking read: Europeans and other northern races have a cellular adaptations that allows their Mitochondria to produce more Heat as opposed to energy, allowing them to handle colder climates easier.
>accidental byproducts
You're a fucking moron, they obviously faces selection pressure for lower melanin content because they were living in a climate that favored lighter complexions for sunlight absorption, jesus fucking christ dude. The fact that this variation exists whatsoever is enough to create some kind of classification, so you're just blatantly wrong about your claims.

If the min gap is x, then that means you're able to shift the leftmost point by 0*x, the next point by x, the next point by 2x,... the last point by (n-1)x, and still keep the order of the points. So you can just work backwards and start off with a distribution of the compressed points, and uncompress them by adding 0, x, 2x, ... and seeing if they're all withing the range upper bounded by 1. So that means choosing n compressed points such that all of them start off within the range upper bounded by 1-(n-1)x, because all points in this range can be expanded to gaps whose size is lower bounded by x.

So the point is that the set of all n points whose min gap is x or more (pidgeonhole can tell you the max gap) can be bijectively mapped to the set of all n points less than 1-(n-1)x. The domain and codomain are the same, so intuitively the sizes of the sets are the same. Would need a proof though.

You want 1 - prob that none are less than 1/20, or 1 - prob all are greater than 1/20, so it's pretty straightforward.

Yes, strictly speaking it's possible. After all you can't see a blackhole, only their effects. But it's extremely unlikely.

Only a super massive, compact object could cause those orbits and the only object our theories predict could fit are blackholes, and those predictions exactly match all our observations. A single neutron stars is simply not dense enough.

How do you solve something like the following?

You have a ball. If you have, for example the function f(x) and that is the acceleration of the ball as a function of its distance travelled. So maybe it's something like acceleration = distance + 1, so after exactly X meters travelled, its acceleration in that point is X+1 m/s^2. That's just one example how it could work.

Now that you have this informaion, how do you turn this into a function which now describes the ball's velocity as a function of time? Or time as a function of distance? Or any other combination of functions?

It is basic Jewish Fear mongering. As vindicated by the Epstein files, Jews do run the world, and they want everyone to be sick and unhealthy. They manufacture plagues (Sanitation), that way they can sell you the cure (Pasteurization), all the while making you weaker more easier to control Goycattle.
Read the Epstein Files, Conspiritards continue to win again and again. Calling people Schizo for eating a substance that their ancestors have been consuming for generations just doesn't work anymore.
It's like calling White People racist for wanting to live around their own people, it's an empty statement.
Try it for yourself, if you don't like it or it makes you sick then don't try it. Simple as. No need for Jewish Fearmongering.

Gold isn't poisonous, doesn't tarnish, and has ten times better conductivity than lead. Yes it's more expensive but the quantities involved are tiny so the cost isn't actually that important. The reason silver isn't used despite being much cheaper is because it's too hard and difficult to work with, unlike gold which is ductile.

If you have to ask why lead isn't used for a purpose, it usually ties back to the heavy metal neurotoxin thing.

Are there infinitely many numbers 3*10^n-1 which are divisible by seven for integer n?
>>
>>16907493
Yes.
Proof: There exists at least one such case in n=5 (7*42857+1)
If 3*10^n-1 is divisible by 7, then it means that 3*10^n is congruent to 1 mod 7. Multiplying this by something else that is congruent to 1 mod 7 will give you a product that is congruent to 1 mod 7. By Fermat's Little Theorem, 10^6 is one such number.
So, putting this together, any n of the form n=5+6k for k=1,2,3,etc. will work

You are put blindfolded into an infinite hallway in which the two walls are hundred meters apart. You only know that you are in a random location in such hallway, and you get out once you touch a wall.

Which curve do you start walking so that the distance that you will walk before reaching a wall is going to be on average as short as possible? And assuming that you use this optimal path, what is the average distance that you walk before touching a wall?
>>
>>16907508
Probably the logarithmic spiral but fuck knows how to prove it.
>>
>>16907508
My guess is that you assume the wall is directly in front of you and move 45 degrees in a straight like for the length of Rsqrt(2), where 2R is the distance between the two walls. If you don't hit a wall any time during your walk (50% of the time), Assume the two walls were slightly rotated by angle d(theta), then you move in a straight line to that wall. If you didn't hit it, then assume walls again were rotated, then move in a straight line again.
>>
>>16907857
its more like F(x, A), where A is your original facing angle relative to a wall and x is distance from the wall.
then your goal is to rotate -A and move x distance.
Or if x is > 0.5 L, then rotate -(A + 180) and move x distance

So this was quite wrong; in pic rel, the purple path is way too long,

If theta represents the angle of the red dotted line touching the red wall, when theta is between 0 and pi/2, the 45 degree green line is hit by the solid red line pretty quickly. Same will happen to the blue line at pi to 3pi/2. I'm just gonna go off from the 45 degree green line, so I have no real proof of any answer

The curved dashed green line is such that at the point where the red tangent line intersects it, the line from the point to the end of the 45 deg solid green endpoint is perpendicular to the red line. And this green dashed curve is a much better answer than the purple. The straight dashed green line seems like a reasonable path too. I have no intention of integrating to see which is better, since it was an arbitrary straight linel. In pic rel, that particular position it sorta looks to me that the path lengths for both green curves are the same, and angles below that the curved green line beats the straight green line

Still have no answer, but I thought to find a minimal equation, IF I can use the 45 deg green line. The two walls means theres probably some point where the derivative of the floor integral doesn't exist, and I don't wanna think about that

Unfortunately, I can't exactly solve it. Still, the curve I seek past the 45 deg line should satisfy the altered Euler lagrange (as the action functional is a 2x integral)
[math] (\tfrac{\pi}{2} - \theta ) \tfrac{\partial L}{\partial x} \big|_{x(\theta)} - \tfrac{\partial}{\partial \theta} \left[ ( \tfrac{\pi}{2} - \theta) \tfrac{\partial L}{\partial \dot{x}} \big|_{x(\theta)} \right] = \lambda_x(\theta) \tfrac{\partial g}{\partial x}[/math] ,
where [math] L = \sqrt{1 + (\dot{y} / \dot{x})^2} [/math] and the constraints g are that the parametrized curve outta intersect the red line somewhere [math] 0 = \sin\theta[ y(\theta) - R\sin\theta ] + \cos\theta [ x(\theta) - R\cos\theta ] [/math]

The divergence operator is not defined that way. What you are getting confused by is the similar sounding "divergence theorem" - the volume integral of the divergence is equal to the surface integral of that volume (the flux).

I meant why is the formula [eqn]\frac{\partial B_x}{\partial x} + \frac{\partial B_y}{\partial y} +\frac{\partial B_z}{\partial z} [/eqn] when https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divergence#Definition gives it as flux divided by volume as the volume goes to zero?
>>
>>16909411
I'm surprised wiki didn't give any info on it. Suppose you have infinitismally small box with side area A = (2dx)^2 and volume V = (2dx)^3. The center of the box is your origin of focus. B is a vector field with derivatives, and consider B(0). The only 6 values we only have to consider are B(dx, 0, 0), B(-dx, 0, 0), B(0, dy, 0), ...). So what would the flux of this box be? Factor out the A, divide by V, then set the limit down to 0. Voila

This was the easy one. Now do the same for curl. Not that much harder but more writing. After you do the curl one yourself, look up a proof for the generalized div/curl/gradient for a change in coordinates (don't do it yourself). If you can't find it, Griffiths has it in his Electrodynamics appendix I think.

You have to make the parabolic equation regarding that section.

Essentially, yes.

According to Quantum Field Theory they are modes of vibration of a field that pervades all of space. So every electron is nothing more than a quantized vibration in the single electron field. It is the properties of that field that defines what change, mass, and spin the particles have. It's also why every electron is identical.

When I see pic related types of people, I realize they are genetically incapable of thriving in a modern society and it only reinforces my intuition that they should be left alone to live their lives as they please. They don't bother me in any way and they shouldn't be bothered. Many "racist" retards feel irrational rage at the very sight of these hopelessly primitive people. They make "racism" their identity, but they're clearly not racist enough, because they're implicitly judging these tar-black atavistic hominids by "normal" human standards and expectations to conclude they are somehow at fault for being this way. Likewise, many "anti-racist" retards feel a deep discomfort looking at this picture and feel an irrational urge to "civilize" and "uplift" these people, whom they perceive as their inferiors and dependents. They make "anti-racism" their identity, but they're clearly racist (just not racist enough). I conclude that the problem with racism is that people just aren't racist enough. To be ethically racist, you need to racistmaxx.

Let f(n) be the expected number of steps to arrive at 7 if you start on the number n.

Trivially:
f(7) = 0
f(12) = f(2)
f(11) = f(3)
f(10) = f(4)
f(9) = f(5)
f(8) = f(6)

Also it's easy to see that:
f(6) = 1 + (f(5) + f(7))/2
f(5) = 1 + (f(4) + f(6))/2
f(4) = 1 + (f(3) + f(5))/2
f(3) = 1 + (f(2) + f(4))/2
f(2) = 1 + (f(1) + f(3))/2
f(1) = 1 + f(2)

what kind of math do i need to learn to do project euler problems? any textbook recs
>>
>>16915058
The answer to your question depends on this symmetric curve's degrees of freedom.

For the lower curve, the center point (worth 2 degrees of freedom) is confined to the x=0 line (1 restriction). A second random point (worth only 1 degree of freedom) is confined at (b/2, 0). So you've restricted two degrees of freedom so far. Saying that the center point has y > 0 isn't enough to lower a degree of freedom because it isn't a concrete number.

For the upper curve, same deal with the two degrees of freedom, but you also set the height to be "a" higher than the lower curve. But this only becomes a 3rd degree of freedom taken away if the lower curve is already restricted.

So how many degrees of freedom do your curves have? How many random points are needed? If a center point is given, how many random points are needed?
For a line, you have y-b=M(x-a);
for a parabola, you have (y-b) = A(x-a)^2;
for a circle, you have (y-b)^2 + (x-a)^2 = r^2;
for an ellipse/hyperbola, you have (y-b)^2/d^2 +/- (x-a)^2/c^2 = 1

Do you have enough information, or do you need more?

There's no one fits-all answer to that. The first ~100 problems or so are essentially coding challenges that require only basic math. Everything you need to know is in the question.

However, eventually the questions do require more advanced mathematical knowledge you might have to do research on, but it tends to be question specific.

If I were to take snapshot of 1m3 of "empty" space. How many photons there would be? What would be their energy? Could it be the "dark matter" we are missing?
>>
>>16916367
Your question isn't well defined. It's not the number of photons that matter, it's their frequency and density (and hence mass equivalence). Most of the photons in empty space will come from the Cosmic Microwave Background. Since that energy can be measured, you get a mass of around [math]4 \times 10^{17}[/math] kg per cubic light year. Compare that to the mass of the sun at [math]2 \times 10^{30}[/math] kg and the answer to your question is no. It doesn't even come remotely close to explaining "dark matter" and anyways, it was already factored into astronomers' calculations of all known / visible mass.

Correct, but it's radiated from a point source. The falls off as [math]1/r^2[/math] so it very quickly becomes irrelevant. The CMB on the other hand is *everywhere* with a constant mass-energy density. Which brings us to your other point:

> But there will be a lot of cubic light years, compared to single star.
Yes, but look at those number again. You would need [math]~10^{13}[/math] cubic lights years of space to match a single average star. Now think about how many stars are in a galaxy, and galaxies in the observable universe. The mass of the CMB just doesn't compare even with all that empty space out there.

I mean, they're essentially the same thing graphed in two different ways. They're interchangeable. You can derive theta from the left graph and you can derive x from the right graph.

If you go into 3D, then you can get all three, wooooh

>How can one be certain they are behaving in an ethical manner
Ethics is based in outcome, as is most the modern behavior of racism. When you see a Grizzly Bear act in a particular way, you don't base your conduct towards it by catering to the exceptions, i.e. you don't run towards it expecting a hug.
When you see that Blacks are typically belligerent and violent, you don't conduct yourself by pandering to the statistical exceptions, because it's safer to assume that an animal that typically acts in a certain way is going to keep acting in that way. Furthermore, even if you do manage to find the exception in some instance, you're basically establishing a precedent that gives future credence to them in the future. I.e. A grizzly bear might actually be chill and let you hangout, but then somebody is going to get the wrong idea and now you have a bunch of tourists coming around trying to hug the bears at yellowstone.
The same rule applies, they started giving blacks lighter sentences because of "Systemic Racism," which allows for guys with upwards of 30 Felonies to get released back into society without any prudence to determine his elligibility, which they almost never have, hence pic rel.
>who interact based on checklists.
If somebody says they're a murderer, are you going to hangout with them anyway? Afterall, that checklist of people who Murder being bad guys is retarded by your logic.
>How do people talk about laying tripwire when the coolies are in the meeting.
You just stop associating with them, or mitigate your association to whatever extent you can. It's that simple, don't support their business, keep words to a minimum, don't go into areas infested by them. That's literally all there is to it. Put your people first.

If they were the same thing, LLMs (including bio-LLMs like you) would have impressive performance at actual science and not just at standardized testing and homework.

>>16897757
You shouldn't. But if you do, be careful
>>
>>16918252
>>16918229
From the perspective of the walker, the motion is periodic, so you should look at sin and cos functions.
>>
>>16918267
How about using only F=m.a can one tell how much spacing from there or what guides spacing in limbs,appendages and cycles, tandems etc>>16918234

>How to make equation for a walk cycle?
Get a bunch of data points from a mo-capped walk cycle and fit quintic polynomials to the data points for joint trajectory. Differentiate the quintics and you'll get smooth linear acceleration signals for the joints. As a bonus, I think you could apply a Fourier transform to the accelerations and get a frequency domain representation that decomposes the walk into its cyclical components. If you vary some of those parameters, do an inverse transform and integrate the new acceleration signals, you'll get new funky walk cycles.
>>
>>16918280
How about something more basic like those in cartoons. Like maybe how walk cycles parallels work. What's the physics driving it or just maybe a diagram of how things moves.
>>
>>16918280
Or do you have the paper for this. Or infographics.
>>
>>16918285
>How about something more basic like those in cartoons
Same thing. You can go over the frames and mark where the joints are, fit some quintics and you have a differentiable trajectory you can derive accelerations from.

> What's the physics driving it
You mean how to deduce the accelerations from first principles instead of given trajectories? I dunno. That would be an optimization problem over an entire articulated rigid body system involving balance and energy expenditure and constraints for human biomechanics... so quite a bit more involved, but it's been done. Just look up procedural walk animations or something...
>>
>>16918277
So you want something more general than just walking. If a limb is a rigid body with mass M and length L, the force required to change its angular velocity by an amount [math] \Delta \omega [/math] in a time [math] \Delta t [/math] is of the order [math] M L \frac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t} [/math]. This force is supplied by chemical reactions in the muscles in the limb and the timing of these reactions is controlled by electric signals from the nerves, so the force acting on the legs is a function of the signals received from the nerves. You can hard code a bunch of signals, each for controlling the movement of a limb/appendage/etc by a certain amount and apply the force according to the nerve signal received. Walking can be simulated by sending a sequence of signals in a certain order.
>>
>>16918298
>Quintics
>Frames
>Marks
Do you have actual examples? This seems to be Abit overcomplicated.
>Deduce
No, it's vector math at least, with force being constant, I assume the mass is gonna be the same thus, acceleration will tell speed and then tell distance.
That is supposed to be the basic.
Getting the spacing.
>>16918310

Is optimization really worth the amount of time spent trying to figure out the function of a system? I'm studying it from Stewart but I find no use cases for it in real life.
You can only optimize simple systems while assuming lots of constraints and I don't see it being useful enough to be worth the trouble. Any anon ever used it for something really useful beyond simple practice or thought experiments?
Stats based optimization seems far more versatile and useful.

If the atomic nucleus were 38 millimeters across, the farthest distance the electron cloud would...angular momentum propagate materialize away...would be 2 kilometers (2 million millimeters), the outlier maximum, but with an average that was much shorter around 1 million millimeters or so...
Given that the difference in energy between the weak and strong nuclear forces is roughly 1 million, is there a measured, observed relation in distance ratio scale to the difference in the strong and weak nuclear forces somehow?
What do I not understand? I am sure it is simple.
>>
>>16918464
What is the nucleus made out of? How do you know where it starts and where it ends? What is matter anyway?
>>
>>16918566
So is reality simply distance averages between the next smaller observational parts layers angular momentum propagation materialization orbit clouds?
Distance averages theory?
Just endless pressure field distance averages, things floating in those fields, and those things themselves possessing Russian doll pressure fields of things floating in them...
Clever
Very clever young orbital cloud....
But its pressure fields all the way down

already did it a month ago, nothing interesting happened, the whole lighter flashed the moment I ignited it and my hand got engulfed in fire for a split second and then it just burned normally and the flame got slightly bigger but that could've been for any other possible reason. could be because i put in a very tiny amount because i really don't have a lot of acetone left and i don't even know where I can more (yes i'm that dumb).
