I need to store data. I'd like to store them in Metric units and use a tool to convert them to and from other units that these data points will be displayed in. As the title states, my constraints are Distance, Pressure, and Temperature. Distance I know, but it is added here as an example: I store the data in meters and convert to feet where needed. What are the metrics unit for storing Pressure and Temperature? Further, I am assuming here that metric units would be the most universal. If there is a more universal unit for Distance, Pressure or Temperature, please let me know.
In Texmaker, in the caption environment, why does spell check not work if the figure has a label? This is an example I made to show this 'feature': From the first line, we see that the spell-checker is working as normal. This also follows in the figure environment, but not in the caption environment. I tried playing around with it to see what exactly caused it... turns out it's the presence of a label. We see from the second caption that the spell-check is performed correctly.
Can someone help? "Dave killed Peter." Dave asked Susan, "why was Peter here?" Susan said, "Maybe he would have told you if you hadn't have killed him." Would there have been any difference if she had said "Maybe he would have told you if you hadn't killed him"? According to my understanding, Susan wants to emphasise the fact that Peter would have told Dave why he was here if Dave hadn't killed him first. Right? Meaning, Susan thinks Dave would still kill him anyway, before or after Peter told Dave why he was here.
If I have a rod of some material and submerge one end in hot water then leave the other side exposed to room temperature air. How would I go about calculating the temperature of the end of the rod that is exposed to the open air? It's alright if it requires two or three equations and some problem solving to figure out I'd just like some mathematical way to solve this if there is one
I'm working on a digraph problem in which bidirectional edges need to be treated separately. As such, we could consider them as undirected edges. Clearly, if I replace bidirectional edges with undirected edges I get a ``mixed graph'' (one with directed and undirected edges). But can a mixed graph have bidirectional edges in addition to undirected edges? Can a mixed graph have a directed edge and an undirected edge between two vertices? The Wikipedia definition is not crystal clear on this. A paper, Enumeration of Mixed Graphs indicates bidirectional and parallel mixed edges are disallowed. The definition in this article claims that the ``complete mixed graph'' has a undirected and bidirectional edge between both vertices. What are ``mixed graphs'' typically defined as?
I wonder if there is some advantage in using individuals when defining set theory and if this has something to do with the use of classes. This is essentially because I have seen that some books start by defining the empty set whereas others consider it to be a primitive symbol. In the first case there are only sets in the domain of discourse, but in the second there are also what they call individuals. What is the purpose of using individuals compared to the other alternative? Also, the way I understand individuals is that they are entities at the begining of the hierarchy, at the same level of the empty set, but maybe I'm misundersanting this. Could you guys please help me claryfy this...
On a recent trip the US, someone explained to me that saying "sorry" meant taking responsibility for causing the loss. Thus you should only say sorry if you intended to fix the situation. (And potentially even had implications for insurance and litigation). I'm an Australian - generally when people say "I'm sorry" it means "I can display empathy for your loss and can put myself in your shoes". [implicitly also that no responsibility is taken - nor any effort being made to restore the situation] My question is: Do English speaking subcultures attach different meanings to the phrase "I'm sorry"? (This is different to the other questions relating to the meaning of 'sorry' because it considers the legal and restorative implications as well as the geographic context).
the classic rhombic dodecahedron (RD) can be used to fill space as shown here I know I cannot recreate a bigger RD by stacking RD together because you never have two touching faces on the sames plane. I am wondering if joining the center of stacked RD you would end up with a bigger RD ? I've tried making origami model and it looks like it is not the case.
Besides sports in which an attacker is an offensive player, is there any difference between assailant and attacker? a person who attacks somebody I guess attacker can also be used for animals but not assailant. Is there anything else or are they fully interchangeable when describing a person who physically attacks somebody else? Can both words also be used when talking about psychological attacks, like insulting, bullying, etc?
I've found it in a book and assume it's got to be correct, but I cannot understand why the Past Perfect of I had been offered. Would was offered not have been clearer? I explained that when I was in high school I had been offered a job teaching tennis at a local country club because I had been one of the best junior tennis players in the area
One of the most useful black hole analogies I've seen imagines that space is "flowing" like a river into a black hole, and the point at which it flows in faster than c is the horizon. This analogy leads to the idea that a tachyon could escape from the "c"-based horizon and perhaps penetrate a bit further. Given that the tachyon has finite speed there would presumably be a horizon closer to the singularity that applies to the tachyon. However, could a tachyon device send us information about what's going on beyond the c-horizon? Let's assume tachyons exist and we have a device that can generate an interpretable message transmitted w tachyons (the Apple iTach, if you will).
What would be another way of saying "It'll do more harm than good" but in the context of "it'll do nothing for you?" Here's some context. The common mistake, however, is believing that only lifting weights multiple times a day will get us to where we want to be. This is wrong, and unfortunately, it may even do nothing for you. I'd like to rephrase this to match and compare like "Nothing more than something" but that sounds really stupid.
In Malayalam/Indian, there's a saying "Thala Irikkumbol, Valu-attaruthu!", which literally translates to: When the head is present, tail should not wag. It means that one should not act out of turn in the presence of one's superiors. Consider: Mafia bosses A and B discussing stuff; a low-ranking member M chimes in interrupting them; A puts a bullet between M's eyes saying something-cool-here. I'm not limiting answers to mafia style, though that would be cool. What are other English idioms equivalent to this?
When referring to the time of a particular event, should I refer to the local time or the time zone most relevant to the audience or always include reference to the time zone? It can be further complicated when having to specify Standard or Daylight Saving times. It seems that you would have to reference all times as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) to avoid having to list multiple times.
I am developing a Trading Card Game and I am in need to extract functionality from two of my classes as they are both doing almost the same. it is about the Deck and Graveyard constructs which are visible on the field. The Deck is where the cards are which you can still draw, the Graveyard is where your used cards are. What word could I use to describe both a Deck and a Graveyard, Stack is already taken unfortunately (by the Java language) and I'd personally describe it as a Pile, but not sure if that is the best wording.
Possible Duplicate: Why does the sound pitch increase on every consecutive tick at the bottom of a filled cup of coffee? A colleague suggested this experiment this morning : Get a cup of coffee Spin the coffee in the cup using a spoon Tap the bottom of the cup with the spoon Observations : As the coffee slows down, the sound produced by the tapping gets higher in frequency. I'm very curious about this, does anyone have an explanation ?
I'm translating a course manual but I'm struggling with something. The manual could be read by a man or a woman. In my own language, he or she or it doesn't exist, so I'm not sure how to make my texts easier to read. The student can meet his/her Inner Guide who opens his/her heart chakra. The teacher guides his/her student so he/she can advance more in his/her life. I'm going to open his/her chakra and so he/she can express his/her emotions easier.
I have learn some basic knowledge of Heat in my class, and I got confused when dealing with the change of state. Basically, what the textbook say is that the molecular kinetic energy keeps constant during the change of state and the molecular potential energy increases. However, my problem is, how do the particles manage to change their molecular potential energy without moving faster? How does the energy supplied to that object actually helps it increasing or decreasing it's molecular potential energy? What I want is some sort of "model - like" stuff so I can understand what is going on in micro-view.
I know that in evaporation process highly energetic molecule get latent heat and it changes the phase and rest of water is cooled,but I think water at high temperature is at up and low temperature at the bottom because of high density of water,but how is energy transfered from water at low temperature to high temperature to gain latent heat,how is it possible ?I am so confused?
It sounds like your proposal would make a great feature request for the existing module. I'm unclear why you consider it was not a good idea. Does replacing I'm unclear with it is unclear to me make the sentence more clear? Are there any contexts where I'm unclear would have a different meaning? Is it used in some regions/dialects to mean something different from it is unclear to me?
I just watched the dubbed version of Code Geass anime series, and there's a sentence puzzling me. The actions one takes are answered by consequences waiting at the conclusion. I was wondering whether the usage of the sentence is formal or not. Can action use answer as a verb? I found nothing on the internet about "the actions are answered by..." What does "consequences waiting at the conclusion" mean? Can wait use at as a prep? I'm a non-native speaker of English.
I want to know if dimensional regularization has any issues if the theory has IR divergences or is scale invariant. Does dimensional regularization see "all" kinds of divergences? I mean - what does it exactly mean when one says that power law divergences and IR divergences disappear in the dimensional regularization. So is more regularization needed in general over and above dimensional regularization? Does anything about the divergences get specially constrained if the theory is scale invariant? I have often heard it being said that dimensional regularization "preserves" scale invariance.
It is well known that the family of conics is derived by slicing an infinite double-napped right circular cone, with the specific type of conic depending on the angle of slice. Separately it is also know that these conics may be defined by its focus (or focis, as the case may be) and directrix, from which standard equations are derived. What is not obvious is how these two concept definining the family of conics are to each other. Question: Show that the cone-slicing defintion of conic sections is equivalent to the focus-directrix definition. Indicate where the focus and directrix are located in relation to the double-napped cone. Diagrams would be helpful.
I am working on a sonnet. This pretty much mandates the use of iambic pentameter and therefore requires that I have a good grip on emphasis. However, I'm not exactly sure how to properly research words for emphasis. I was attempting to comprehend Merriam-Webster's Pronunciation Guide, but that just further confused me. Merriam-Webster has a system for indicating the stressing of syllables; almost every page has a set of symbols delimited by backslashes, describing the word's emphasis. I was wondering if anyone experienced in the emphasis and or word pronunciation could help me understand this notation with an example or two.
I remember when staying a few months in the US years ago that I saw some people using the abbreviations below. However, I can't exactly remember in which contexts I encountered them, (whether I saw my teachers using them when writing something on the board, in papers or in personal notes etc.) So my question is: Are those abbreviations below commonly used and in which contexts is it okay to use them (e.g. formal texts, personal notes,... or better only used in personal note taking?) w/o without w/ with b/c because PS: Are there similar abbreviations that are commonly used?
This construction and its variants always sound strange to me. If I was asked to write a sentence with the same meaning, my choice would be: I don't want a robot running the empire. Logically, don't want (...) no robot conveys rather the contrary for me: want a robot. Can someone please clarify the choice? I had just read it in Asimov's Forward the Foundation. Thank you.
When one pours water out of a bottle, it first flows smoothly but then a pressure 'blockage' develops and the pouring becomes interrupted and turbulent, so that the water comes out in splashes. This seems to slow down the flow of water from the bottle. What is the optimal way to pour the water so that it completely empties fastest? Possible strategies: Holding the bottle at a certain angle Wildly shaking the bottle Squeezing the bottle Other... It probably depends on the shape of the opening and/or the bottle itself, but we shall assume this beautiful example of a standard water bottle: CLARIFICATION The question is asking how to pour the water the fastest, so no straws, hole insertion and evaporating lasers allowed...
I don't know exactly how to ask this in a comprehensible way. I am trying to find a solution to my problem which is to find how many sphere of radius r are lying on the boundary (which means that in some way this little sphere intersect the boundary of the big sphere) of a sphere of radius R (with r smaller than R). For example, one simple law could be dividing the surface area of the sphere with radius R with the area of a circle of radius r.
I have an example image here from Modern Physics textbook. I also like the chapter styles (I am thinking I could do them with the memoir document class, but that is for later). Right now, I am trying to figure out how to make the section numbers and titles show up in the margin of the chapter title pages. Also, does anyone think this could work in the book documentclass instead of memoir?
So I am trying to find the relationship between fractals and newton's method, and I am trying to use software to generate the fractals pattern. which software can I use to do that and how? Also i am trying to compare two different types of Newton;s method - the normal one and a new type of newton's method called relax newton's method. The new type maintains a quadratics convergence in most situations, but how can I generate fractals for this new Newton;s method?
I am victim of the known biblatex-biber bug described here which leads to mass spurious missing citations, resolved only by deletion of the biber cache (dozens of files). Previously it was occasional but now it is driving me up the wall - I have to delete the cache on every single compile across multiple projects. Anyone know the status of this bug and the purpose of the cache before I resort to abandoning biber completely.
How could I estimate the force I apply when I squeeze a new toothpaste tube? I want to either be able to calculate it without having to perform an experiment, or refer to some scientific journal with a similar calculation or rough estimate. I was thinking that I could use Hooke's law and calculate the force exerted when a similar force to that of gently squeezing the tube is exerted on a spring with a spring constant similar to the resistivity of the toothpaste tube...I could make numbers up (as the value of the force I am looking for can very much be an estimate), but I have no clue what an estimate k value and x value would be to calculate the force using Hooke's law.
I noted the question above had been posted. And I wanted to comment, but nay, it was locked out. However, what of the old 'CRT' tubes, in which magnetic fields are used to steer the electron stream ? Now I know the 'Electron's' do not get attracted, or repulsed directly to the source of the magnetism, but the magnetic field certainly has an effect. So if one were to extend the CRT tube to ... well, rather long, would the electron eventually move to, or away from the 'North' or 'South' pole ?
(a) The rise of price of goods burdens the people. (b) The rising of price of goods burdens the people. (c) The ban of plastic bags is a good way to reduce environmental problems. (d) The banning of plastic bags is a good way to reduce environmental problems. Which form should I use for the words 'rise' and 'ban' before the preposition? Gerund or noun?
I have seen it on the Internet as follows (abbreviated as IMAO): Only the Muggles will find it offensive IMAO. I know it's contrasted with the common phrase "in my humble opinion," but I still don't know what impression it tries to convey, nor what is the appropriate situation for it to be used. Is it a somewhat unfriendly phrase? How do I use it right?
Can anyone suggest a book on rings explaining concepts using visual diagrams, similar to the one visual group theory book by Nathan Carter for groups.The problem with me is that after reading that book I am visualizing everything in terms of Cayley's diagram,cycle graphs etc. and now I'm feeling if I'll use a standard book i'll be missing some great things. I'll be grateful for any help.
It is my understanding that clouds are largely made up of water, which is known to split white light into its frequency components, and that's why we see rainbows sometimes. My question is, with sunlight being practically constant throughout the day, why aren't there rainbows all over, all the time? I mean, we can see monochromatic changes in the color of the "sky" throughout the day, but rainbows seem to only happen sometimes, why? In short: Rainbows that we can see come from water droplets, not collections of droplets.
A phobia is an irrational fear of something. An intolerance to something is usually an -ism, not a -phobia, as in sexism racism ageism Yet people who object to homosexual practices or discriminate against homosexuals are labelled "homophobic" and their intolerance is labelled "homophobia". But homophobia should logically be an irrational fear of things that are the same (and indeed is listed with both meanings in this list of phobias) and an intolerance to a particular sexuality should surely be sexualism, sexualityism, or a similar word. So... how did the "sexualism" meaning of "homophobia" come about? Is there another word for intolerance of / discrimination against people of a particular sexuality that doesn't imply irrationality or fear?
Where can I find the problem talked about in the following paragraph regrading Maxwell's laws of electromagnetism - Every time Maxwell rearranged his equations to make the speed of light the subject and plugged in the numbers he got a very strange result. The speed of light always came out the same, regardless of the speed of the light source. This result seemed absurd! It's common sense that anything cast from a moving body will have a speed that's calculated from both the moving body and the object. as seen on here in the paragraph titled as 'An impossible Result ?
Say I run an experiment measuring some parameter A on a sample group of a population where A is a non-negative real number. Is there some way of knowing if my percentile results are reasonable? Ideally, I'd have confidence intervals around my percentiles to know their ranges in the population as a whole instead of just in the sample group. TL;DR want confidence intervals for percentiles
I am attempting to show communication between states in a Markov process, basically something like this, although the arrow angles aren't of any importance, simply having that relation between the nodes : I have looked into TikZ (which I've never used) and have tried finding some info on the simplest way to create nodes like this, but most sources I've found seem overcomplicated for how simple a task I'm trying to accomplish. Any ideas?
Real photons do have frequencies, which is directly related to its energy. So, can virtual photons that take part in EM interactions have frequencies too? When my hand is pressed up against a glass window, do the virtual photons taking part in the EM interaction keeping my hand from falling through the window have a frequency compared to the photons that passing through the window (visible spectrum) or those reflecting off it (frequencies the glass is opaque to)? Also, since virtual photons may be massive and definitely have four-momentum, they definitely do have some energy - so is there any notion of frequency?
Turns out there's tritium illumination - a tiny very strong plastic tube will be covered in phosphor and filled with tritium. Tritium will undergo beta decay and a flow of electrons will cause the phosphor to glow. This gives enough light for illuminating hours marks on a wristwatch dial and the hands of the wristwatch for many years and is claimed to not pose health hazard. Now how it is possible to have energetic enough radioactive decay and no health hazard at the same time?
I want to buy some text books at graduate level. I have got enough money in my contingency grant, as there is a chance, i thought i should buy some good books not thinking about the cost. The areas that i am interested in are Commutative algebra, Algebraic geometry, Algebraic number theory, Homological algebra, Representation theory, Algebraic topology Any thing a bit advanced is also welcome. I do not want to buy so many books on same subject for the reason that there may be some repetitions in the content and all. Please suggest some thing regarding this.
I'm not really a programmer but I'm quite interested in learning how to use LaTeX/TeX. I've looked it up on Wikipedia and scanned through it and the documents created through this way of editing is just beautiful. Formulas are also available within it too, so writing math thesis or physics papers would be amazing. Is this system just for programmers, or can normal people use it too? (I'm mainly a designer, so I usually edit it in Word or InDesign.)
According to inflation theory, the inflation itself took place at some short yet finite time after Big Bang, so there should be some gravitational interactions present before inflation, some objects started accelerating towards other objects etc. However after inflation many of those objects were scattered outside of their neighbours' light cones and as gravity propagates with the speed of light the interaction between such objects should be interrupted. Yet what about the initial acceleration that these objects gained before the inflation occurred? Shouldn't these objects still be moving in their original pre-inflationary direction? And how would such forces shape the present Universe?
I have some datasets and I need to find spikes in them. Imagine the data looks like trading data. If the spike is big enough, I need to log it, otherwise, proceed in the analysis. I tried with a moving average approach, but cannot detect all of them. Is there a better way? Also, I would like to know if there is a robust approach to calculating the baseline, so I can filter it out.
