Maybe a silly question but on the above question using the conservation of momentum: momentum before firing (0) = momentum after firing (55*35)+(M*2.5) If I re-range the above it's M = -(55*35)/2.5 = -770kg. I can I reconcile that minus sign (basically get rid of it)? Thanks

I want to solve this using difference equation. So I set up the general equation to be Pi = 0.5 Pi+1 + 0.5 i-1 I changed it to euler's form pi = z 0.5z2-z+0.5 = 0 z = 1 since z is a repeated real root I set up general formula Pn = A(1)n+B(1)n then P0 = A = 1 PN = A+BN = 0 -> A= -BN...

I know that the eigenstates of momentum operator are given by exp(ikx) To construct a real-valued and normalized wavefunction out of these eigenstates, I have, psi(x) = [exp(ikx) + exp(-ikx)]/ sqrt(2) But my trouble is, how do I find the expectation value of momentum operator <p> using this...

But I think the answer is 32, is it correct?

Hi folks, a question regarding the value of G, has there been an experimental data collected on the value of G over time, what I'm interested in, is if the value of G in the observable universe, is decreasing or increasing (by a small amount) over time, thanks.

Hey! :giggle: Let $X$, $Y$ and $Z$ be independent random variables. Let $X$ be Bernoulli distributed on $\{0,1\}$ with success parameter $p_0$ and let $Y$ be Poisson distributed with parameter $\lambda$ and let $Z$ be Poisson distributed with parameter $\mu$. (a) Calculate the distribution...

The expectation value of the kinetic energy operator in the ground state ##\psi_0## is given by $$<\psi_0|\frac{\hat{p^2}}{2m}|\psi_0>$$ $$=<\psi_0|\frac{1}{2m}\Big(-i\sqrt{\frac{\hbar mw}{2}}(\hat{a}-\hat{a^{\dagger}})\Big)^2|\psi_0>$$ $$=\frac{-\hbar...

When I run this simple code: int main() { int x = 45; std::unique_ptr<int> q(new int (x)); *q = 3; cout << x << endl; } 45 is printed on the console. I expected this to print 3 to the console. It prints 3 when I use a built-in pointer. Does this mean that unique pointer...

A recent thread by @coolcantalope was accidentally deleted by a Mentor (I won't say which one...), so to restore it we had to use the cached version from Yahoo.com. Below are the posts and replies from that thread. The cached 2-page thread can be found by searching on the thread title, and is...

Here is my attempt at a solution I don’t know where to go from here, as the equation is a quadratic it will have two solutions which means there will be two stationary points, but I don’t know how to solve for z.

Hi, I'm currently a Grade 11 student and I need help for this question (Precalculus): If $\sum\limits_{i=1}^{50} f(i)=90$ and $\sum\limits_{i=30}^{50} g(i)=60$, what is the value of $\sum\limits_{i=1}^{50} (7 g(i)-f(i)+12)/(2)$? P.S. To those who could answer this, it would be a great help...

I was trying this problem from some 2 hours but unable to crack it. I cannot proceed after few lines i.e$${\frac{axsin\theta}{cos^2\theta}} - {\frac{bycos\theta}{sin^2\theta}} = 0$$ $${\frac{axsin\theta}{cos^2\theta}} = {\frac{bycos\theta}{sin^2\theta}}$$ $${\frac{ax}{by}}...

First thank you for taking your time to take a look at this simple question. And sorry for the informal math language and equations, I hope you guys can understand it. So, depending on the case, I have 2 or 8 simple quadratic functions f(a), f(b), f(c),… f(z). Each a,b,c,…,z have a different...

In the example below, x is static while x1 is a dynamic copy of x. Also, y and z are similar expressions containing x and x1 respectively. If we evaluate expressions containing x and x1, they display in numeric and mathematical formats, respectively (y and z below). How can I display z as a...

I may have misunderstood the expectation value, but if not then with the Copenhagen Interpretation it is easy to understand the expectation value for a wave function. It is just based on the probability of each event. If there were 4 possible events, and the probability of the event having a...

Hello everyone, I have to find an interval of this Riemann integral. Does anybody know the easiest way how to do it? I think we need to do something with denominator, enlarge it somehow. My another guess is the integral is always larger than 0 (A=0) because the whole function is still larger...

In the 3rd edition of the Introduction to Quantum Mechanics textbook by Griffiths, he normally does the notation of the expectation value as <x> for example. But, in Chapter 3 when he derives the uncertainity principle, he keeps the operator notation in the expectation value. See the pasted...

I have managed to find the gamma value using the following equation: (T2/T1)= (P2/P1)(gamma-1/gamma. This will give me the answer of 1.29 SF. After this step, I am clueless. Can someone help me with this question please? I assume we have to find the enthalpy at state 1 to do that question.

If the boundary condition is not provided in the form of electric potential, how do we solve such problem? In this case, I want to use ##V = - \int \vec{E} \cdot{d\vec{l}}##, but I don't know how to choose an appropriate reference point.

Hey all, So this time I have a different kind of question - namely, "what is this called?" I recall hearing/reading this in at least two places, one of which was YouTube. The idea is the following: A RNG picks an integer uniformly from 1 to N. It picks 4. What is the expected value of N? I'm...

This confusion has lingered in the back of my mind for years now, would be good for me to finally get a grasp on this. Say I have an object currently at rest, and I use energy X to accelerate it to speed v. According to the standard formula, it now has a kinetic energy 1/2mv^2. Now I use the...

I am quite confused by this. I was sure that ω=3*sqrt(5)*10^6, because that is the coefficient of t, and generally u(x,y,z,t)=Asin(kx−ωt+ϕ) for a multi dimensional harmonic wave. However in the answers it is said that ω=3*sqrt(5)*10^14. I can't see the reason for that, could anyone explain please?

I tried to do it by derivative but there are two variables, so I don't know how to proceed. Does anyone know how I can solve it? Remembering that you don't need to find the value of ##\theta##. I just need to find a relationship between ##\theta_1## and ##\theta_2##
