I was intrigued by a comment in Brilliant.org:
Besides the proof provided by Brilliant, I also found a couple of other websites. But none of these proofs were entirely clear to me. So I tried to come up with my own proof. Since I am not a group theorist, I wanted to ask if the proof makes...

I know how to solve each of those problems. For the set one, I look at the output of the S and try to match it with the input of T and then take the pair (input_of_S, output_of_T), and I do that for each pair.
As for the formula one, I just plug in x = g(y).
My confusion lies in trying to...
I'm trying to understand this paper (equation 2.16 specifically):

The LT can be derived from the first postulate of SR, assuming linearity an that velocity composition is commutative, and that GT can be excluded: ##t' \neq t##.

With assumed linearity follows for the...

As this page says: "A burnt-out star is basically a gas of electrons and ions. "
In white dwarf, further collapse of the star is stopped by electron degeneracy pressure. But, if the star material is just a soup of ions and almost free electrons, why don't the electrons and ions separate into...
Thought experiment for discussion:
You have a sealed transparent container with a "perfect vacuum" inside of it. 1) List what is inside of the "empty" container. 2) Explain how you might go about expelling EVERYTHING from the container.

Attempt: Consider an arbitrary normal series ##G = G_0 \ge G_1 \ge G_2 \ge \dots \ge G_n = 1##. We will refine this series into a composition series. We start by adding maximal normal subgroups in between ##G_0## and ##G_1##. If ##G_0/G_1## is simple, then we don't have to do anything. Choose...
Attempt so far: We're given that ##G## and ##H## have equivalent normal series
$$G = G_0 \ge G_1 \ge \dots \ge G_n = 1$$
and
$$H = H_0 \ge H_1 \ge \dots \ge H_n = 1$$
We can assume they have the same length because they are equivalent. I think from here I need to construct two composition...
Hi,
I'm hoping this will be a fairly easy question for someone on here to answer. If I wanted to make a (small?) vacuum tank (basically a hollow cylinder capped with two similarly hollow hemispheres - like so: (===)), how thick would the walls of the tank need to be for it to withstand the...
I ask the foundry to cast nickel alloys and I took a piece metal to do a chemical test.
The element composition of the nickel alloy is Ni 70% Cr 12% Fe 1.2% Mo 2.5%...so far they all are in the allowable range.
But I found the alloy also contains W 0.004% !
Is this the normal condition ? ?
