Problem 1. Yowie

Part 1 The first stage was actually taking all the required physical measurements of all the group participants. They can be found in Tab.1: The only ratio we were familiar with was the one proposed by the assignment (height : arm span = 1 : 1), so we checked it. Based on our measurements we were able to make a conclusion that this ratio is actual but not precise. In our data, the ratios were: Courtney 167 : 160 = 1.04 : 1, Angela 169 : 170 = 1 : 1.01, Steev 176 : 180 = 1 : 1.02, Danielle 155 : 150 = ...

Lab Experiment #4: Fundamentals of Electric Circuits

Goals The main objective of this laboratory practice is to gain understanding on the basic laws that describe electric circuits and their application.

Background and Theory

Ohm’s Law. According to Alexander and Sadiku (2013), “Ohm’s Law states that the voltage v across a resistor is directly proportional to the current i flowing through the resistor” (p. 31). The constant of proportionality is the element’s resistance, R, which depends on several factors that will not be analyzed in this report. The equation for Ohm’s Law is then: v=iR (where v: voltage, i: current and R: resistance). The units for ...

What many business majors fail to realize is that Algebra is absolutely crucial to their progression throughout their professional degree program. The reason that algebra is so vital to their business career strategy is that Algebra is utilized in many ways in the business world depending on which sector that you decide to work in for the long term. Where the knowledge of Algebra comes in is when you are tasked with the objective of solving equations in everyday problems that utilize Algebra. When we look Algebra in high school, we learned a great deal about how Algebra could ...

Men have always dominated in the field of mathematical studies, but some women managed to achieve there more success than their male colleagues. One of such outstanding women was Emmy Noether. Amalie Emmy Noether was a Jewish German mathematician and one of the most famous female scholars in the history of mathematics. She made significant contributions to theoretical physics and abstract algebra and established the theories of fields, rings, and algebras and famous Noether’s theorem that demonstrated bindings between conservation laws and symmetry. As Nathan Jacobson said, “Emmy Noether was one of the most influential mathematicians of the ...

Rene Descartes was a famous French physicist, mathematician, philosopher and physiologist. He was the founder of modern European rationalism. Descartes was one of the most influential metaphysicians of modern times. The scientist was born on March 31, 1596 in France. Since the parents were nobles, the boy received a good education. In 1637, René Descartes published his famous work, published in French, - "Discourse on the Method" ("The Geometry Of Rene Descartes | Mathematical Association Of America"). The scientist was the first who introduced the coefficients of equations, variables, and designated degrees. He has modified the symbols of Wyeth’s ...

Trigonometric computations are used in nearly all fields of geometry, physics and engineering. The triangulation technique has the great importance, which allows measuring the distance in astronomy and geography, monitoring the satellite navigation system. Also trigonometry is used in such areas as music theory, acoustics, optics, analysis of financial markets, electronics, probability theory, statistics, biology, medicine and so on. Daniel Bernoulli, Fourier and Cauchy made a huge contribution to the involvement of trigonometry and developed the idea of trigonometric series. In the middle of the XVIII century, appeared the most important in its consequences "argument of a string". Euler ...
