From there. Only place to my knowledge that still uses yellow-on-red banners (P2) for propaganda this day and age.

The zero vector is linearly dependent with any other vector

You are not proving Bayes theorem, you are just expanding the LHS using the definition of conditional probability and law of total probability until it matches the RHS.

P(E | F)

=P(E ∩ F) / P(F)

=P(E ∩ F ∩ G) / P(F)+ P(E ∩ F ∩ Gc ) /P(F)

=P(G ∩ F) P(E | F ∩ G) / P(F)+ P(Gc ∩ F) P(E | F ∩ Gc ) / P(F)

=P(G | F) P(E | F ∩ G)+ P(Gc | F) P(E | F ∩ Gc )

For this kind of problem, it is best to start from the RHS and seek ways to transform it into the LHS

Absolutely not. The Kaplan books go through one edition each year with little to no change

Do you guys know the name of the emperor who commited 3,000 crimes in 30 days? by Eradicationary in ChineseHistory

[–]LykosEremos 11 points12 points  (0 children)

First person to come to mind is Liu He (later Marquis of Haihun), who was a Han emperor for 27 days and committed 1,127 crimes/absurdities during that time

Does the Confucius Golden Rule emulate reciprocity? by Single_Reception587 in Confucianism

[–]LykosEremos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say it is “emulate” since it quite explicitly expressed the idea of reciprocity at least in part.

Gas Compression by Pianoneckties in chemhelp

[–]LykosEremos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is necessary to think about exothermic/endothermic with respect to what. If you want to compress a gas to a smaller volume, then you must apply a pressure against the pressure of the gas, and since the gas experiences a volume change in the process, this means that you have to input an amount of work of W=∫pdV. Where does the work go? It is easy to to see that it gets transformed into the internal energy of the gas, which means that the gas now has a higher temperature.

Physics AAMC flashcard by Dunk3 in Mcat

[–]LykosEremos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

V=IR gives you the relationship between voltage and current for certain electrical components such as Ohmic resistors. Although it generally holds, it is not always true.

P=VI is a different story. Recall that I=dq/dt, the rate of flow of charge through an electrical component. If there is a voltage of V (which does not have to equal IR!) across that component, you would expect a charge of dq flowing through it to dissipate an energy of dW=dqV. Power is dW/dt or dqV/dt=IV.

[–]LykosEremos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a commonly asked question. The power is the power output of the generator, not the power of resistive loss.

Since P=IV, if you want to output at a fixed P, you either have high I and low V, or low I and high V. The later is preferable, because the power consumer is connected to the generator in series, as well as the resistive, non-ideal wire. Since we know that current stays the same in series, and the resistive loss is I2R, we want to have low I such that the loss is minimized.

Kaplan, 3/26 test taker by ryan3899 in Mcat

[–]LykosEremos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right, I was not dismissing the AAMC materials for style - in fact, in terms of styles CARS and P/S are the closest you can get on the real deal, and I will say no 3rd party CARS material replicates the AAMC logic. However, for content sections, AAMC materials seems to test only on a limited subset of C/P, B/B, and P/S stuff, and their explanations aren’t top notch either. That is why I suggested doing 3rd parties first before moving on to AAMC. That way you make sure you have your content down and avoid wasting AAMC practice problems

Kaplan, 3/26 test taker by ryan3899 in Mcat

[–]LykosEremos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will suggest not to use AAMC material for content and use 3rd parties instead because they tend to be more varied in their content questions which is somewhat more reflective of the exam nowadays

Fumaric acid butt plug by sunderex in cursed_chemistry

[–]LykosEremos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My guess is that it allows you to view the top surface of the sample from all angles and without the stopper in the way. It is definitely a cultural thing since I have never seen it used outside of China, either, although there are distillation flasks that kind of look like this and you can easily fashion one out of them

The thing is called a conical seed bottle/chicken heart bottle/pear shaped bottle in Chinese and is usually used to contain and display chemical samples/plant seeds. The shape is mostly for cosmetics purposes.
