    Basic Complex number algebra

    i've read a few threads on complex numbers here and found that either 1: i slept in class without knowing (hopefully not) or 2: my teacher skipped a whole section on it how do you do basic algabraic laws on mod-arg form complex numbers e.g arg(z1/z2) can this be simplified into...

    Tabular integration instead of reccurance

    do any of you know if you can use tabular integration instead of obtaining recurrance formulas? like integral(x^n * e^x) (S = integral) f(x) : x^n, g(x) : e^x f'(x): nx^(n-1) Sg(x) : e^x f''(x)...

    Orbiting concept

    what is the range of angle for launching a projectile into orbit? if you say angle is irrelevent: read below; else don't bother reading it i posted an earlier question similar where i wanted to find out the direction of escape velocity and was told direction is irrelevent, so i assumed since...

    relativity question

    Does relativity only apply to linear motion? what about relativistic speed objects that constantly change direction like circular motion or objects travel along a linear path but constantly change their velocity like a vibrating object (simple harmonic motion). ...Doh thought about this on the...

    Can someone estimate a UAI based of ranks

    i have no idea what i'll get so can someone try give me an estimate on the way i'm going? my ranks are around: english adv - 110/180 maths ext 1 - 15/80 math ext 2 - 1/20 physics - 20/50 software design - 3/12 my school rank is around 40 (i'm going on the assumption my year is worse than...

    Escape Velocity

    Ok i know its stupid of me not know this but; for what direction does escape velocity apply? when we got explained it in class we had the "newtons cannon firing off a mountain" except this was parallel to the tangent of the earth at that point. would the escape velocity apply if you fired the...
