"An internal study at Lahey Electronics,a large software development company,revealed the mean time for an internal email message to arrive at its destination was two seconds. Further, the distribution of the arrival times followed a Poisson distribution. a.What is the probability a message...

After asking a professor about undergraduate research on Friday, I received a positive reply that very evening. The professor also asked me to send him my CV. Hovewer, it would take me some time to make it. Would it be ok to send the CV on Monday, or is it rude to take more time than him to reply?

Well the texas instruments ti-84 calculator is my favorite toy. I use it for anything I can from getting a girl to put her phone number in my calculator to programming. Is there a way to somehow add an external circuit that can make the ti-84 send text messages. I bet there would have to be a...

I have so many questions about the universe so if there are any physicists(with a degree) i could email please tell me.

An issue I’ll call Issue 1 arose and prompted Event A to occur. A few days after Event A occurred, I received a virus email I’ll call Virus Email 1. The content of Virus Email 1 referred to something that is a direct outcome of Event A. Therefore, Virus Email 1 is directly related to Event A...

Is it possible to do a wildcard google-search to show all the email addresses in a company ? If I know an email address exists like ... john.smith@123company.com Is there some way of doing a wildcard google-search which will list all emails ... *@123company.com where * = wildcard...

I communicate by email with several people who have begun to use smart phones. I noticed a big change in email after they got the smart phone. Their email became less reliable. They say they sent email that I didn't receive. They say they didn't get emails that I sent. I wonder if there's a...

Is it absolutely imperative to have a yahoo email to create an account on the photo sharing website flickr? I never cared for yahoo's email service and think that it's silly that I'm being forced to create an account there in order to join tumblr. There isn't any way around this?

Hello Physics Forums, CS department, I want to create an email service similar to gmail.com or mail.yahoo.com. Where people can sign up for free. I have basic coding experience that includes getting an A on Intro to Java course at a university. Prior to that I have taught myself PHP. Ruby on...

Hello PF! I wish to do research as an undergrad, so I am thinking of sending emails to professors to ask for any available positions. What would be the most professional way to do this? Thanks in advance,

Here we will use the following transforms: $\displaystyle \begin{align*} \mathcal{F}^{-1} \left\{ \frac{n!}{ \left( a + \mathrm{i}\,\omega \right) ^{n+1} } \right\} = t^n\,\mathrm{e}^{-a\,t}\,\mathrm{H}(t) \end{align*}$ and $\displaystyle \begin{align*} \mathcal{F}^{-1} \left\{...

a) Start by writing $\displaystyle \begin{align*} \frac{ 1}{ \omega ^2 - 7\mathrm{i}\,\omega - 10 } = \frac{1}{ \omega ^2 - 7\mathrm{i} \,\omega + 10\mathrm{i}^2 } = \frac{1}{ \left( \omega - 5\mathrm{i} \right) \left( \omega - 2\mathrm{i} \right) } \end{align*}$ Now applying partial fractions...

Completing the square gives $\displaystyle \begin{align*} \frac{2\mathrm{i}\,\omega}{\omega ^2 + 10\omega + 29} &= \frac{2\mathrm{i}\,\omega}{ \omega ^2 + 10\omega + 5^2 - 5^2 + 29} \\ &= \frac{2\mathrm{i}\,\omega}{ \left( \omega + 5 \right) ^2 + 4 } \\ &= \frac{2\mathrm{i}\,\omega}{ \left(...

I have problem with my email keep sending out email with virus to others. I have change password a few times and it did not help at all. I have Norton 360 already and that does not seems to help. What can I do to fix it? It is a very new computer in service for about a month only and I have...

The first thing you need to do is take the Fourier Transform of both sides of the equation. $\displaystyle \begin{align*} \mathcal{F} \left\{ f(t) + 3\int_{-\infty}^{\infty}{f(t-u)\,\mathrm{e}^{-2u} \, \mathrm{H}(u)\,\mathrm{d}u} \right\} &= \mathcal{F} \left\{ 15\mathrm{e}^{-2t^2} -...

Hello guys, I applied for Engineering Physics, and I got admitted..and after a month, they sent me an email telling me that the program was canceled, and told me to inform them about my second choice which is ICT . so please guys I need you to give me some ideas on how to start the email...

Does anyone know if the Honorsociety.org website is legit or if it's a virus. I just got an email saying i got accepted into it. I usually ignore most of the emails on my school account. They're mostly job offers and what not.

To start with, let's work on the Partial Fraction decomposition. $\displaystyle \begin{align*} \frac{A\,s + B}{s^2 - 16s +128} + \frac{C\,s + D}{s^2 + 16s + 128} &\equiv \frac{3s}{s^4 + 16\,384} \\ \frac{ \left( A\,s + B \right) \left( s^2 + 16s + 128 \right) + \left( C\,s + D \right) \left(...

So I got a random email today telling me that I was accepted into the university honor society (honorsociety.org), whatever that is, due to my academic excellence and nomination. This is laughable considering my GPA sucks (although I have a 4.0 major GPA, just haven't taken many major classes...

An email conversation has gone like this: A: Can you come by sometime next week? B: I'm free Thursday or Friday C: "Can you stop by in the morning?" OK, does that mean he wants me to come by next Thursday or Friday in the morning, or is he separately asking me to stop by tomorrow?

Hey, Not sure if this subforum is the ideal place for it, but in some way I am asking for academic guidance, so... I was wondering: if a professor concludes his email to me using just his first name, is it then good etiquette to start my reply with "Dear [first name]"? I suppose the...

Homework Statement Let M(x,y) be "x has sent y an email message" and T(x,y) be "x has telephoned y," where the domain consists of all students in your class. Use quantifiers to express each of these statements. (Assume that all email messages sent are received, which is not the way things often...

Miko asks:

I sent out an experimental sample plan a few days ago. I copied four people, including our division director. Today I got a response from one of the recipients that made it clear he either didn't read the plan, or didn't understand a word of it. I won't claim to be a great technical writer...

Are you aware of any regulations about using (within law) emails for advertising? In Poland we have a law against spam that - basically - allows me to send a single email stating something like "We are a Bluewidgetcorp, producers of cheap and reliable blue widgets, if you are interested...

I receive excel spreadsheets as email attachments all the time. I usually open the email, then the attachment, then I copy and paste the data into an html form. A php program automatically enters the data into mysql properly formatted. I would like to automate the process so that anyone...

I had a phone interview a little over 3 weeks ago and at the conclusion of the conversation they told me that they would send an email telling me if I got the internship or not. I didn't send a follow up email yet, but now I am wondering if I should? Is it too late? Should I do anything other...

So I went to a bar with some friends, and it was completely packed. We decided to ask some people at a table if we could share it with them so we could sit (I'm living in Germany, and I guess people do this all the time, not like in the US where I'm from). So they of course let us sit down. And...

I live in the UK and I am hoping to start a PhD next October, so currently I am emailing potential supervisors about projects which I usually start off with a cover letter and a CV, however I don't seem to be getting any replies back! This includes some professors who I have emailed before...

Hello, I am beginning to apply for graduate schools. Normally I wouldn't have thought to email the professors I am interested in working with on research. However, I heard from a professor that when they were applying to graduate schools they were only accepted to those programs that they...

Hey guys, I have a question about email addresses in a journal paper. It is natural for authors who are professors to leave their .edu email addresses because are rarely changed. But what about for an undergrad? I am graduating in 2 years and the school will delete my account after I...

Unresponsive teacher via email -- how long do I wait? I emailed a professor about an issue, and he replied that he'd check into it. The next day, I emailed him back thanking him and asking if he would email me back with his findings. he sent the first response last Wednesday, and I haven't...

Hello, I would like to ask a question on sending TEX formulas in email. If I paste TEX code directly into an email client, will it be readable by the recipient? Does it depend on the email client they use? The most popular email client perhaps is MS Outlook, so does that support TEX...

The box where you type in your email in yahoo mail includes a "bing" search option I cannot erase from my email messages. How do I get rid of this? I just want to type emails with nothing in the text box. I use firefox as my main browser if that helps any. This is very annoying whenever I try...

I've sent a few emails to someone, and in their reply in my inbox, the email address would show up in the From column. But in their latest reply, their full name showed up. Why is that? I didn't add them as a contact either.

I'll be applying to grad schools over the next few months, and I've talked to a few professors at my university who have told me that it would be a good idea to find professors whose research specializes in what I'm interested in and email them, telling them a little about myself and that I'm...

Okay, so basically I have a university email address and a gmail account. Generally I autoforward all emails to my gmail account and reply to the emails by using an option that replies to emails by my university address rather than my Gmail account. But sometimes this option results in this...

Hello all, I am currently emailing a professor asking if he would be willing to mentor me and take me under as an intern. Unfortunately I do not know what is etiquette to state in an email such as this. Ultimately I am asking to meet and discuss the matter but I am unsure how to propose the...

Hello, I recently got a "joke" email with this problem in it. The student drew an elephant in the middle of the ramp & answered "b" with: No, there is an elephant in the way. It is relevant to my current studies, so I worked it out and would like to know if I am correct. Please see...

I started to receive a lot of spam recently from my computer site and a friend suggested me that is because I have my email address listed in plain text on my contact page, and that I should turn it into an image instead. How do I turn my email address into an image?

I've been wondering this for a while. One of my teachers is particularly nasty in her emails to me. She has no problem critiquing me to the point of attempted embarrassment (getting other student's inputs about me to base her critique). She also has no problem yelling at me if I accidentally...

how do I know if a guy’s email account has been hijacked by someone who sends a message to me? can I know who has sent the e-mail I received, the guy himself or the hijacker?

It looks like my desktop was infected with a virus due to a fault in Norton* that caused it to not update its virus definitions. The virus turned the system into a zombie, sending out spam. Now many ISPs are identifying my IP as a source of spam and are refusing all email from me. Norton...

Is there a client that allows the "conversation" style display of emails like on Gmail?
