Homework Statement
I am working through some maths to deepen my understanding of a topic we have learned about. However I am not sure what the author has done and I have copied below the chunk I am stuck on. I would be extremely grateful if someone could just briefly explain what is going on...
Hi there,
I am struggling to understand how moving the summation (with H3) to before G1 will cause H3 to have to be divided by G1. I tried writing down how the equations would work to make sense of it but I still can't see how it works out.
Please can someone explain this to me?
Thanks,
Laura...

Hiya.
I got to an interesting bit in a calculus book, but as usual I'm stumped by a (probably simple) algebraic step.
The author goes from:
(ds)^2=(dx)^2+(dy)^2
to:
ds=\sqrt{1+\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2}dx
I understand moving the square root across, but I don't understand how the...

Hi everyone,
So I've been wondering how much energy does it takes to impart some kind of effect on the higgs field. I've been trying to look for the energy the LHC generates and compare it to the actual amount of energy that it takes for the higgs field to be affected, but since this is all new...

This isn't homework or anything, just something I tried and it doesn't seem to be consistent.

x^3 - x = 0. Then I factored out an x and got x(x^2 - 1) = 0.
Then I divided by x^2 - 1 and got x = 0 which isn't a...
