SAMPLE PROBLEMS: 111-SET #1 VECTOR ADDITION‚ SUBTRACTION 01-1 1). A man is able to row a boat at 3 mph in still water. If he rows his boat pointed straight across a river with a current of 4 mph‚ what is his net velocity? If the river is 0.5 miles wide‚ at what point will he land on the other side? Solution: The first step in problem solving is to identify the problem type. In this problem we are asked for a ‘net velocity.’ Since velocities behave as vectors‚ then we have a vector addition

Cogito ergo sum‚ or its translation‚ “I think‚ therefore I am‚” is a frequently-quoted line from well-known mathematician and philosopher René Descartes. I’ve noticed that it often seems to be misunderstood; this post is a brief outline of the idea and some of my thoughts on it. When concluding cogito ergo sum‚ Descartes was attempting to determine what truths‚ if any‚ could be truly known beyond all doubt. He had a tough time of it‚ finding that almost everything he could think of was subject

A Critical Analysis on the Problem of Evil (Theistic Approach) Thesis Statement: The problem of evil is inadequate to disprove the existence of God. The Problem of Evil coined by Epicurus states that: “Either God wants to eradicate evil‚ and cannot; or he can‚ but does not want to. If he wants to‚ but cannot‚ he is impotent. If he can but does not want to he is wicked. If God can eradicate evil‚ and He wants to do it‚ why is there evil in the world?” This problem has long bothered many theologians
