    Is this field extension normal?

    Homework Statement Consider the field extension Q(c):Q, where c is a primitive nth root of unity. Is this extension normal? Homework EquationsThe Attempt at a Solution I believe this polynomial splits in x^n - 1,where it's n roots are exactly the powers of c. Thus this extension is normal...

    MHB How to Prove Galois Extension Statements in a Normal and Separable Field?

    Hey! :o Let $E/F$ be a Galois extension. I want to show the following: $F\leq K\leq E \Rightarrow \mathcal{F}(\mathcal{G}(E/K))\geq K$ $H\leq \mathcal{G}(E/F)\Rightarrow \mathcal{G}(E/\mathcal{F}(H))\geq H$ Since $E/F$ is a Galois extension, we have that the extension is normal and...

    B A statistical definition of Young's Modulus?

    Young's Modulus is usually defined as the intrinsic property of a material indicating it's stiffness, or it's ability to resist deformation. Though, it is measured in Pa, meaning it should have some statistical description. Spring constant, for example, can be define as the stiffness of an item...
