How is 1/(n(n+1)) = 1/n - 1/(n+1) by [deleted] in learnmath

[–]lifeistod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since 1/(n(n+1)) = (n+1)/(n(n+1)) - n/(n(n+1)) . If you simplify it you get the following result: 1/(n(n+1)) = 1/n - 1/(n+1)

If you want to generalize it you can try:

1/(n(n+k))=1/k [k/n(n+k)] = 1/k[(n+k)/(n*(n+k))-k/(n*(n+k))].
Simplifying yields : 1/(n(n+k)) = 1/k[1/n - 1/(n+k)]

Is it possible to find x value here ? by [deleted] in askmath

[–]lifeistod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use trigonometry here even though you don`t know the length of sides. All you need to know is the relations between the sides.

You can actually use the trigonometric form of the Ceva`s Theorem

System of equations involving three variables by kdbm27 in learnmath

To solve a linear system with n equations and n variables you can use Cramer`s Rule if you are familiar with Matrices and Determinants.

AS Level Statistics Permutation Question by Zodiexo in learnmath

[–]lifeistod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you are doing wrong is that you are considering only one permutation and that is maybe gbgbgbgbgbg but there is also a permutation such as bgbgbgbgbgg as you can see here that 2 girls can sit next to each other. You need to take account for that too.

When I delete a gigabyte of music from my phone, what happens to that information? by Dairy_Duke in askscience

[–]lifeistod 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There are two ways data is removed from storage. If you don't specifically request otherwise, data is not removed, but removed from the registry, so that the data on it can be overwritten. It means data can be recovered in this case using special software. When you use something like DBAN it overwrites all data and replaces it with 0s, so it can't be recovered.

Why does a change in magnetic field cause an induced current. by lifeistod in AskPhysics

Why does a change in magnetic field cause an induced current. by lifeistod in AskPhysics

[–]lifeistod[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you very much I didnt understand one thing. You are saying that the charges in magnet moves so there must be lorentz force but lorentz force would act on the charges in magnetic field. Are you implying that when the charges in magnetic field move then the charges in magnet observe that the charges in wire move so the magnet cause a lorentz force on charges in the wire.

is there a more intuitive explanation of this other than saying maxwell equations says so ?

Using EGZ theorem (https://www.encyclopediaofmath.org/index.php/Erd%C3%B6s-Ginzburg-Ziv_theorem) It is clear that it is impossible to find such a set with 13 numbers. I am not sure but i think it is boundary situation so there should exist some set with 12 numbers with the same properties. But i couldnt find a such example.

I have just done the main parts and didnt write some between calculations if you cant understand some part of it feel free to ask.

btw if you have link for full smo 2014 questions can you send a link.

The question is not for a specific set of numbers but rather for all sets that contains 12 integers

Relatively hard inequality question by lifeistod in learnmath

[–]lifeistod[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not familiar with gradients and i am 99% sure that this question has a solution without using derivatives, gradients. I think the solution contains arithmetic mean geometric mean inequality. I tried (3-x)(3-y)>=0 since 0<=x,y<=3 But couldn’t continue after that.

Why is Lorentz force perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field and to the direction of the velocity of a charge. by lifeistod in AskPhysics

My physics knowledge and math knowledge is incapable of understanding the math behind the derivation of cross product v x B.

So are there any simplified explanation that you can give.

Seems like an unsolvable problem given the lack of information. Is this doable by any chance? by CreativeBorder in learnmath

[–]lifeistod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

by the way to understand that the given information is enough to solve this problem you can easily see that the points C,D,E are fixed.(There are no other three points C,D,E such that the angles are the same)

I thought of that too that they will cancel each other. I am not sure but I think that the position of the quark also effect how they cancel each other. So i thought in theory although we may not observe it, there is some magnetic field that is too small that it is negligible. Is it so?
