Not sure if I'm doing this right. I have an angle theta to find but the cosine has been squared. I brought over inverse cosine to multiply to leave theta on its own. I was told the answer should be closer to 37 degrees? Am I doing something wrong here?

I am currently confused with the concept of the blackbody radiation and the inverse square law.
Planck's function for the radiation of a blackbody is in ##W sr^{-1} m^{-3} ##, is this somehow a form of intensity (because of the watts per square meter unit)? If it does, doesn't intensity...
I almost understand how the inverse square law is derived from the area of sphere equation, 4πr2, but I'm not quite clear on what happens to the 4π. I found one equation that seemed to say that the intensity is equal to the area of the sphere of the source point times the amount of whatever...
I have a set of data points that I must fit to an inverse function like this:

Is this normal? it doesn't seem correct.

Does anyone perhaps have a good way for me to get a lasting 'intuition' about what inverse hyperbolics are? I look at, for example, the well known sin x; it is periodic.

Hi MHB,

Hi, I know that the inverse function of
y= f(x) =2x+1
is
y-1=2x
x=(y-1)/2
and then we just replace x with f-1(y) and then when we plug in any value of y it gives us a corresponding x value.
Now my question is this: If we want to find a line or function that is perpendicular to another...
