    Windows equivalent of TSR? Getting Windows programs to interact

    I have a data entry program in Windows 10 that has no API to interface with it directly. I have a lot of data to enter manually, which is very slow. Assuming I can get that data into a digital form and store it in a .CSV file or clipboard, how can I write a utility app that will sit over top of...

    How to calculate the equivalent resistance in this Circuit?

    I start from far right: Green and blue are parallel Connection: This in turn is in series connection with black resistor: and so on ... This is what I'm ending up with My final equivalent resistance is (275/17) Ω. Is this correct?

    Is this still an equivalent force?

    Say I want to determine if a rope/ attachment equipment is strong enough for a person falling at some height. I am unable to have a mass fall at that height so I decide to up the mass and reduce the height. Should I use kinetic energy or conservation of momentum? Because the impulsive force...

    MHB The metrices are topologically but not strongly equivalent

    Hey! :o Let $X=(0,1)$. For $x,y>0$ we consider the metrices: $d_1(x,y)=|x-y|$ $d'(x,y)=\left |\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{y}\right |=\frac{|x-y|}{|xy|}$ I want to show that these are topologically equivalent but not strongly equivalent. $d_1$ and $d'$ are strongly equivalent iff there are...
