The inverse square law |
2018-06-05 |
|
Amy pose la question :
Question about inverse square law ;
Hi, I'm trying to understand some nuances about this law and
have been reading about it a lot online and trying out some homework
for personal interest (hobby ) - not school related.
I understand that the simple formula is ; 1/d^2
I was wondering about what appears to be an oddity to me, that
I came across when I was working with a test example I found at this
link ;
http://www.softschools.com/formulas/physics/inverse_square_law_formula/82/
The problem that caught my interest was this one on that page ;
"1) If a bright flashlight has a light intensity of 15.0 candela at a distance 1.00 m from the lens, what is the intensity of the flashlight 100.0 m from the lens?"
So I have a few different questions about this, but the most important
one is, what does it mean if we replace the "1" in ; 1/d^2 with a different value such as a ratio in the form of a decimal value, so instead we have something like this ;
0.75/d^2
???
Does this ratio represent a curve then?
I am thinking that the "1" in the normal formula represents a straight line
Some of the links I was researching ;

If x ix directly proportional to y then ... |
2012-02-19 |
|
Crystal pose la question : I understand that we say x and y are proportional, then y = kx.
Generally when we say x is proportional to y, we think that when x increases y increases.
Now I am questioning whether that is actually true.
If k is negative, then when x increases, y DECREASES.
My question is does this mean this statement is incorrect:
If x is proportional to y, when x increases, y increases proportionally.
Is it more correct to say:
If x is proportional to y, when x increases, y either increases proportionally or decreases proportionally.
Along the same line of reasoning, when x is inversely proportional to y,
we think that when x increases y decreases, but that is true only if k is positive.
Is that correct? Harley Weston lui répond. |

Properties of real numbers applied to subsets |
2012-02-01 |
|
Mark pose la question : Hello -
The questions that I have for you is do the properties of real numbers (such as the associative, commutative, identity, inverse, and distributive law) apply to ALL the subsets of real numbers? In other words, do all those properties work for the Natural Numbers? The Whole Numbers? And so on and so forth. I understand that they are all real numbers, but for instance: the identity is whenever you add zero to a number, you get that number back. But does that work with, say, with only the odd numbers? Zero isn't odd so can that property actually apply to JUST the odd numbers? Any consideration would be greatly appreciated! Robert Dawson lui répond. |

The angles in a right triangle |

Golaan pose la question : I need the to understand the formula for finding either of the acute angles of a right triangle given it's hieght length and base length.

I don't understand cosine, sine, and tangent or the other ones at all. So if the solution includes those (which I believe it does) could b very verbose yet in a very elementary way?

Using the inverse sine function |

Nelson Rothermel pose la question : This has me completely baffled.

Here are the steps I used (A,B,C are angles; a,b,c are opposite sides): angle A (16.1951 degrees): cos-1*((b2+c2-a2)/(2*b*c)) angle B (40.6011 degrees): sin-1*(b*sin(A)/a) angle C (56.7962 degrees): sin-1*(c*sin(A)/a) If you notice, A+B+C does not equal 180.
