Hi there, I was recently watching a gymnastics video, and the three gymnasts balance on each other in a crazy tower. Here is the part: http://youtu.be/Q5L4MT8LdOQ?t=2m10s Does the person on the bottom feel a shift in the center of mass due to the top person leaning so far back, making it...

For example Griffiths' Electrodynamics, and Quantum Mechanics seems popular. and the prices are expensive. I'm curious about how much money the author make by selling these books.

Homework Statement Find example of function that saatisfies ##\lim\limits_{(x,y)\to(0,0)}f(x,y)=0## and ##0\neq\lim\limits_{x\to y}\lim\limits_{y\to0}f(x,y)\neq\lim\limits_{y\to0}\lim\limits_{x\to0}f(x,y)## The Attempt at a Solution In my opinion it is impossible. Let...

Hello, I read from several sources the statement that the set of points M\inℝ2 given by (t, \, |t|^2) is an example of differentiable manifold of class C1 but not C2. Is that true? To be honest, that statement does not convince me completely, because in order for M to be a manifold, we should...

I'm reviewing some notes regarding probability, and the section regarding Conditional Probability gives the following example: The middle expression is clearly just the application of Bayes' Theorem, but I can't see how the third expression is equal to the second. Can someone please...

http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/6414/puag.png The picture above is used to help understand artificial neural networks, however for now this doesn't matter as I'm only concerned with the maths. A number is input at the start of each both horizontal lines at the left hand side. The numbers...

Show by means of example that lim/x→a/[f(x)g(x)] may exist even though neither lim/x→a/f(x) nor lim/x→a/g(x) exists. I have tried using examples such as piecewise functions and rational functions, but can never validate the statement. Any guidance and help would be great. Thanks.
