Graph Definition and 999 Threads

i was wondering what the equation of the line/curve on a velocity vs displacement graph would be which would indicate constant acceleration. I am totally stumped. EDIT:please feel free to shift the thread to any other place if need be, but since it wasn't coursework this seemed to be the natural...

I am trying learn how to graph Normal distribution with TI-Nspire CX CAS went to the Ti.com but just found a work sheet. or else I missed it some where. but saw some examples on the display. thanks ahead for help:cool:

I know this proof is probably super easy but I'm really stuck. I don't want someone to solve it for me, I just want a hint. One way is trivial: suppose f continuous. [0,1] compact and the continuous image of a compact space is compact so f([0,1]) is compact Now the other...

So I'm trying to understand this paper (found here: http://arxiv.org/abs/1301.3411) but my math skills are very limited. These include: -Groups (the very basics, like the first of Charles Pinter's book) -Analysis (the very basics) But what all books/papers/topics would you suggest I...

Homework Statement A simple type of blinking light circuit can be constructed using a neon lamp. The circuit has a 4.0uF capacitor in parallel with a neon lamp. When the voltage is low in the RC portion of the circuit, the lamp does not conduct electricity. Therefore, it is effectively not...

Hi All As the title suggests I want to get to a level where I can approach research problems in Graph Theory. Specifically in the areas of Algebraic Graph Theory and Random Graphs. I know this is no small endeavour but I atleast want to put some direction into my extra studying. My...

I am a high school physics teacher and I've been trying out an experiment for my students. I used a manometer (a plastic tube in a U-shape partially filled with water) to measure the pressure of the air in a boiling tube. I placed the boiling tube into a beaker of water and varied the...

Homework Statement Show that there exists a group of order 21 having two generators s and t for which s^3 = I and sts^{-1} = t^2. Do this exercise by constructing the graph of the group.Homework Equations Based on the given relations, we have t^7 = I.The Attempt at a Solution Since ##s## and...

I was just curious as a possible confusion that might occur when graphing a v vs t Graph. Because velocity is a function of time, but time is also dependant on velocity, so how would we denote this on a graph? Hope i got my point across, thanks!

Okay, so I just started reading a few books on Graph Theory and Topology (I wasn't sure if I should put this in Topology or here.), and I am just here to clear up some concepts, mainly about Cliques, to be precise what is a Clique? I have read Wikipedia articles and the books, and still No clear...

Hi everyone, I'm learning calculus at school. Recently I was taught this equation like. Y = (2X^2)/(9 - X^2) So the teacher did all by himself. So I came home and now confused. I know there are 3 graphs(sorry if the word is not right ) so I was doing it again. And I'm stuck at where to get the...

Hello, I wanted to take some time and show how to sketch the graph of a function! If you see anything that is wrong, please PM me and I will correct it!:) I hope you enjoy, understand and learn!:) 1. An exponential function Draw the graph of y=e^{-2x^3+3x^2+1} Okay, the first thing I...

I have a kind of embarrassing problem. When I'm working on problems, especially if there's more than one in a row where it involves a bunch of coordinates I inevitably flip graphing them, instead of going for the x first ill go for the y. Is there a simple way of remembering to do it so I can...

Homework Statement 2x>3sinx-xcosx, 0<x<∏/2 Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution One possible way is to draw the graph of the functions and compare but plotting a graph manually is not easy in this case. I want some other methods.

In a group of n people, each pair are friends or strangers. No set of three people are mutually friends. For any partition of the n people into two groups, there exists two people in a group that are friends. Prove that there exists a person who is friends with at most 2n/5 people in the group...

Please check if my two following proofs are correct. I didn't know whether it was better to post them in a separate thread or not. I posted them together since they are both questions related to graph theory. Let me know if I should have separated them. Prove that a graph G is a tree iff it has...

Prove that a graph on v vertices that has no cycle is connected iff it has precisely v-1 edges. Necessary Condition: A connected graph with no cycles is a tree. Therefore, it has v-1 edges. Sufficient Condition: I need help with this. How can I use "a connected graph has no cycles iff it has...

Here is the graph in question: The edges in red are the paths that must be included in the cycle, since vertices a, k, e, and o have only degree 2. I listed all possible routes starting from vertex b, and showed that they all routes closes a cycle while leaving some vertex disconnected. Is...

[SOLVED]Graph theory proof The graph G has precisely two vertices x and y of odd degree. A new graph of multigraph H is formed from G by adding an edge xy. If H is connected, prove that G is connected. Please check my following proof for this problem. Since G has exactly two odd vertices...

Hi guys, so I've never used MATLAB before, and i need to make a plot that changes constantly. Let's say that i have Sin(x) from 0 to 3pi Then i need it to change to a Cos(x) from 0 to 3pi then to a Tan(x). I could do it in other languaje like Php or c, but in MATLAB i have no idea. I...

Homework Statement Well I think the answer is d because if the acceleration is constant then the distance should increase at a steady rate hence the straight line for d. But my teacher says different his working is shown on the side of the question. He believes the answer is A...

I have fairly simple non linear graphs that I need equations for. Sometime back I used a program that gave me a power series equation when multiple cordinates of the graph were entered. I no longer have that program and don't remember where I got it. How Can I get these equations? There must...

Homework Statement See code below: The Attempt at a Solution I am simply trying to get the code to work: When I try to compile, the terminal says that apparently the package ptolemy.plot.* package does not exist and so does not recognise statements like PlotFrame etc.. Why is this...

Quick question guys.. I understand how trig graphs work (cos, sin, tan etc.). What I don't understand is when there is a horizontal translation of say, pi/4, I notice that the graph moves, but I don't really understand how to know exactly how far to move. For example if your HT was pi/4 and...

Someone showed me a graph that has to do with how a cylinder oscillates in uniform flow, starting from no oscillation, to high oscillation, back to none. I know the y-axis is amplitude/diameter and the x-axis is velocity / (natural frequency X diameter) I would just like to find out more...

So I have a function which represents motion. This function is x^2 which is also the area of a square. Now, what I know from the calculus is that the derivative is 2x, no arguing there but the derivative of a squares area is the perimeter, which is 4x? 4x and 2x are not the same at all! Another...

Homework Statement Find a polar equation with the graph as xy=16 Homework Equations r = ed/(1+- cos\theta)? I'm not really sure at all. The Attempt at a Solution I also tried using x = rcos\theta and y = r sin\theta but I can't get anything. I know it's a hyperbola.

Working on a physics lab report regarding uniform circular motion, one of the questions asks to graph the Tension Force vs. the square of the speed. Another part of the same question asks what the slope of the graph represents, which is where I'm stuck.
