The First Law of Thermodynamics is that energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only change from one form to another. For example, a boulder perched at the top of a hill has gravitational potential ...

1/(1+2x)(1-x)=(A/(1+2x))+(B/(1-x))1=A(1-x)+B(1+2x) Now set the bracket of one of A or B equal to 0 to get an equation with 1 unknown.Set x=11=A(1-1)+B(1+2(1))1=A(0)+B(3)1=3BB=1/3Set x=-(1/2)1=A(1-(-1/2))+...

First subtract the first equation from the second getting:0 - 5y = 10-5y = 10Then divide both sides by (-5)y = -2Then substitute the y value of (-2) back into the first equation giving:3x + (-2) = -43x = ...

To find the location of turning points on a function, find the first derivative of the function, and then set the result to 0. if you then solve this equation, you will find the locations of the turning p...

You would calculate the moment of a force on a object by first finding the distance of the force from the pivot point of the object. Following this, you would find the component of the force perpendicular...
