    Every field is an integral domain?

    Okay, so if r,s are elements of R and rs = 0 then either r or s has to equal zero. I'm just confused because it seems that if rs = 0 then we can show that both r and s must be zero... I don't know what I'm doing wrong.. rs = 0 r^-1(rs) = r^-1(0) = 0 1s = 0 s = 0 and then: rs = 0 r(ss^-1) =...

    Why the transfer function is represented in S Domain?

    Hi all, I would like to know why the Transfre function of the system is represented in S Domain instead of doing all the math in time domain itself. I studied a course on control systems and i wonder why s- domain is taken instead of other domains like Z- domain and others. Please refer belwo...

    MHB Is $C[x,y,z]/<y-x^2,z-x^3>$ an Integral Domain?

    Hi! (Smile) Can I justify like that, that $C[x,y,z]/<y-x^2,z-x^3>$ is an integral domain? We show that $ker(\phi)=<y-x^2,z-x^3>$. From the theorem of isomorphism, we have that $C[x,y,z]/<y-x^2,z-x^3> \cong im(\phi)$ $im(\phi)$ is a subring of $\mathbb{C}[x]$ $\mathbb{C}[x]$ is an...

    Surface integrals/Surface areas of arbitrary domain regions

    I'm having trouble evaluating this surface integral. This would be very simple to solve if the parameter domain of the variables u and u was a square region. However, that isn't the case here. I've tried using a change of variables and saying that u = r cos x, and v = r sin x. Where 0 < x < 2pi...
