Kinematic Derivation of the Wave Equation http://prism.texarkanacollege.edu/physicsjournal/wave-e... KINEMATIC DERIVATION OF THE HARMONIC WAVE EQUATION AND RELATED TOPICS An extremely important type of wave in physics is the harmonic wave. This is a wave consisting of propagating simple harmonic oscillations or linear combinations thereof. Attach a weight to a spring and hang the spring so the weight is free to move. Then lift the weight straight up and release it; it will oscillate up and down

On Mathieu Equations by Nikola Mišković‚ dipl. ing. Postgraduate course Differential equations and dynamic systems Professor: prof. dr. sc. Vesna Županović The Mathieu Equation An interesting class of linear differential equations is the class with time variant parameters. One of the most common ones‚ due to its simplicity and straightforward analysis is the Mathieu equation. The Mathieu function is useful for treating a variety of interesting problems in applied

Putting Together a Competitive Benefits Package That Will Attract and Keep Quality Talent Within An Organization Abstract In today’s economy it is vital that society as a whole carefully consider every dollar spent. In both the small and large business environment one of the most important ways to do that is to analyze money spent on a company’s greatest asset – its employees. Although unemployment is still relatively high and many people are willing to work for much less than they would

The Maxwell equations Introduction:- One of Newton’s great achievements was to show that all of the phenomena of classical mechanics can be deduced as consequences of three basic‚ fundamental laws‚ namely Newton’s laws of motion. It was likewise one of Maxwell’s great achievements to show that all of the phenomena of classical electricity and magnetism – all of the phenomena discovered by Oersted‚ Ampère‚ Henry‚ Faraday and others whose names are commemorated in several electrical

Balancing Equations Balancing equations is a fundamental skill in Chemistry. Solving a system of linear equations is a fundamental skill in Algebra. Remarkably‚ these two field specialties are intrinsically and inherently linked. 2 + O2 ----> H2OA. This is not a difficult task and can easily be accomplished using some basic problem solving skills. In fact‚ what follows is a chemistry text’s explanation of the situation: Taken from: Chemistry Wilberham‚ Staley‚ Simpson‚ Matta Addison Wesley

The media equation is a theory developed by two professors of communication‚ Byron Reeves and Clifford Nass‚ at Stanford University. The theory is simple. They state that people treat the media as if they were real‚ hence the equation: media = real life. Basically Reeves and Nass are saying that people on an unconscious level perceive the media as real. People view objects of the media are talking to them personally. Reeves and Nass view things such as computers‚ televisions‚ radios‚ and other

Hence +1 is also needed So: y = 2x + 1 Here are some example values: http://www.mathsisfun.com/algebra/linear-equations

QUADRATIC EQUATIONS Quadratic equations Any equation of the form ax2 + bx + c=0‚ where a‚b‚c are real numbers‚ a 0 is a quadratic equation. For example‚ 2x2 -3x+1=0 is quadratic equation in variable x. SOLVING A QUADRATIC EQUATION 1.Factorisation A real number a is said to be a root of the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c=0‚ if aa2+ba+c=0. If we can factorise ax2 + bx + c=0‚ a 0‚ into a product of linear factors‚ then the roots of the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c=0 can be found
