    How do programs draw function graphs?

    Hi there, I was wondering how computer programs such as geogebra or more advanced packages such as mathlab or wolfram plot graphs for functions. Do they calculate values and interpolate? Do they take derivates to determine maxima and turning points? Do they have any other way to somehow...

    A How Can I Compare Parton Distribution Functions Without Data from Other Groups?

    Hello I plotted the Parton distribution functions in Mathematica. Now I want to compare the graphs drawn with the graphs of other groups(xu and xd). How should I do this?

    B Kinematic equations ##\textbf{purely}## from graphs

    1. The first equation between velocity ##v## and time ##t## can be derived using the graph I have drawn for the purpose as shown on the right. Since acceleration ##a_0## is a constant, the graph of ##v-t## is a straight line. The slope of the line is ##\dfrac{v-v_0}{t} = a_0\Rightarrow \boxed{v...

    I Questions about these Trigonometry Graphs involving sin() and cos()

    Hi. I have two trigonometric equations whose graphs I am trying to understand. Here are the equations: 1. a sin(x) - b cos(y) = y; a = 2, b = 2 2. a sin(x) + b cos(y) = 1; a = 1, b = 1 My question is why the graphs are the way they are. What should I do to understand them? Can anyone...

    Location of point mass based on graphs

    Since figure (a) shows the waveform at t = 1 s, I also look at figure (b) when t = 1 s. The value of y is zero so I try to find the location of x from figure (a) for which y = 0. There are two value of x, 0 and 2 m. Let say x = 0 is point P and x = 2 m is point Q. The period is 4 s so at t = 1...

    I Two Waves In Phase: Exploring the Possibility w/ Graphs

    May I know how is it possible for two waves to be in phase when they have different amplitude? I couldn't find any existing graphs that clearly shows how the two waves are in phase, would anyone be able to sketch it out so I can have a look. Thank you:smile:

    Solving Distance Traveled Using Formulas vs. Graphs

    So basically I wonder why the distance traveled by a body in the 5th second gives different results when calculated by the formula for accelerating body(##d=V_0\times t + \frac{1}{2}\times at^{2}##) and when calculated using a graph(formula for the surface of the triangle). Here is the graph of...

    Analyzing Motion: Deriving Displacement Graphs from First Principles

    Initial displacement is h above the ground ie ##s\left ( t =0\right )=h##. I've chosen the ground as the vertical origin with upwards as the positive direction. Gravity will therefore always act in negative direction throughout. Here are the graphs I which to reproduce from first principles...

    I {Edit-Solved} Confirmation requested on deriving functions from graphs

    So I thought that the graph tries to tell us that the function is periodic after 2π interval. So I tried to derive its function from the graph as follows using the point slope equation form for the points (0,0) & (a,π): ##y= ({a}/{π})*x## I hope this function is alright and I just need to find...

Two vertices are connected by an edge if and only if the corresponding objects intersect. Show that the number of intersection graphs of...

    Motion in 1D-Graphs: Is Option D Correct?

    What is the intersection point of two objects on a position vs time graph?

    The graph: 1) $$v_1 = \frac{\Delta{x}}{t} = \frac{5 - 3}{3} = \frac{2}{3}$$ $$2 = \frac{\Delta{x}}{t} = \frac{4 - 0}{5 - 1} = 1$$ $$\frac{v_2}{v_1} = \frac{1}{2/3} = \frac{3}{2} = 1.5$$ 2)Points of intersection of the lines with the x-axis: ##I## (0; 3) and ##II## (0; -1), thus $$\frac{2}{3}t...

    Graphs of s, v and a for a mass with a piece of paper attached

    I understand that velocity is defined as the rate of change of position or the rate of displacement; and that acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity (it is the derivative of velocity). Morever, I believe I know that for SHM these graphs vary sinusoidally (I have attached a...

    What is the relationship between velocity and time on this graph?

    This is the graph I was given and the answer options. Since the graph is a straight line moving towards the positive direction I thought that meant it was traveling at a constant speed moving in the positive direction. That ended up being the wrong answer. Can anyone offer insight, I missed each...

    I Why is this unit used in graphs; keV/amu ?

    Position in Velocity-Time Graphs
