    Autotransformers in solar energy applications

    Hi!!...There's a growing popularity on these transformers as they are being used to get 120/240 split phase out of a single 120v phase, read a recent comment about them not being as safe as an isolated transformer since their inner windings are not isolated....is an encapsulated general purpose...

    What is a spring constant of 20 N/m used for?

    In my physics lab we determined the spring constant of a steel spring. This turned out to be 20 N/m. However, when I search online, I can't see any uses of springs - I know springs can be used everywhere, but nobody seems to specify their spring constant. Anyone know of any applications?

    I What are the applications of inverses of vector functions?

    As an example, consider a vector-valued function of the form ##f(x,y) = (g_1(x,y),g_2(x,y))##. I typed up one example on wolfram to see if this could be visualized https://www.wolframalpha.com/input?i=plot+f(x,y)+=+(x+y,xy) which was inspired by this question...

    I Applications of measurement of commutativity

    Dang this place has a topology and analysis section too, nice. This is probably a graduate level topic, but I am by no means an expert on these subjects, just things I learn from wikipedia and other people. The commutator is an operation on two linear operators (most often matrices) of the form...

    I What are the applications of function-valued matrices?

    I'm glad there's a section here dedicated to differential equations. I've seen in the fundamental theorem of linear ordinary systems, that, for a real matrix ##A##, we have ## d/dt \exp(At) = A \exp(At)##. I'm wondering if there are analogs of this, like for instance, generalizing a system of...

    Restarting GNOME shell when it has frozen, without killing applications

    Ubuntu has given me a far more stable working system compared to Windows and its buggy updates. But, once in a while, I do find GNOME becoming slow or even crashing. If I find that the GUI is becoming unresponsive, I promptly restart GNOME using Alt + F2 → r → Enter This does the job most of the...

    Moving applications to external SSD....

    Hello everyone, My pc is getting too full so I got an external SSD (1Tb). Would you suggest moving all the applications on the external SSD or keep them on the pc's hard disk? If so why? Or should I only move all the "data" to the external SSD? What is your recommendation? Thank you!

    Engineering Minimum Critical Power Ratio (nuclear engineering applications)

    Im having a really tough time with this problem, I am assuming that in order for q'(z) to be a maximum, e^(-az/L)sin (pi(z)/L) must be a maximum. I believe this occurs when the derivative with respect to with respect to z/L is zero, which gives me z = 0.322L, but I am not sure if this is correct...
