  • Forces Different Types of Forces
    Forces and motion are a part of your everyday life for example pushing a trolley, a horse pulling a rope, speed and acceleration. Force and motion causes objects to move but also to stay still. Motion is simply a movement but needs a force to move. There are 2 types of forces, contact forces and act at a distance force. Forces Every day you are using forces. Force is basically push and pull. When you push and pull you are applying a force to an object. If you are Appling force to an object you are changing the objects motion. For an example when a ball is coming your way and then you push it away. The motion of the ball is changed because you applied a force. Different Types of Forces There are more forces than push or pull. Scientists group all these forces into two groups. The first group is contact forces, contact forces are forces when 2 objects are physically interacting with each other by touching. The second group is act at a distance force, act at a distance force is when 2 objects that are interacting with each other but not physically touching. Contact Forces There are different types of contact forces like normal Force, spring force, applied force and tension force. Normal force is when nothing is happening like a book lying on a table because gravity is pulling it down. Another contact force is spring force, spring force is created by a compressed or stretched spring that could push or pull. Applied force is when someone is applying a force to an object, for example a horse pulling a rope or a boy throwing a snow ball.

The salient features of S can be quantified with persistent homology, which summarizes topological features of the sublevel sets of the dis- tance function (the distance of any point x to S). Given a sample from P we can infer the persistent homology using an empirical version of the distance function. However, the empirical distance function is highly non-robust to noise and outliers. Even one outlier is deadly. The distance-to-a-measure (DTM), introduced by Chazal et al. (2011), and the ker- nel distance, introduced by Phillips et al. (2014), are smooth functions that provide useful topological information but are robust to noise and outliers. Chazal et al. (2015) derived concentration bounds for DTM.

[email protected] www.caerphilly.gov.uk/equalities How to type Accented Characters This guidance document has been produced to provide practical help when typing letters or circulars, or when designing posters or flyers so that getting accents on various letters when typing is made easier. The guide should be used alongside the Council’s Guidance on Equalities in Designing and Printing. Please note this is for PCs only and will not work on Macs. Firstly, on your keyboard make sure the Num Lock is switched on, or the codes shown in this document won’t work (this button is found above the numeric keypad on the right of your keyboard). By pressing the ALT key (to the left of the space bar), holding it down and then entering a certain sequence of numbers on the numeric keypad, it's very easy to get almost any accented character you want. For example, to get the letter “ô”, press and hold the ALT key, type in the code 0 2 4 4, then release the ALT key. The number sequences shown from page 3 onwards work in most fonts in order to get an accent over “a, e, i, o, u”, the vowels in the English alphabet. In other languages, for example in French, the letter "c" can be accented and in Spanish, "n" can be accented too. Many other languages have accents on consonants as well as vowels.

  • (3) (Y'(Uf)\L + 2A(U)B(Y(U))\\O
    proceedings of the american mathematical society Volume 34, Number 1, July 1972 PROPERTIES OF SOLUTIONS OF DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS OF THE FORM / 4- a(t)b(y) = 0 ALLAN KROOPNICK Abstract. Two theorems are presented which guarantee the boundedness and oscillation of solutions of certain classes of second order nonlinear differential equations. In this paper we shall show boundedness of solutions of the differential equation y"+a(t)b(y)=0 with appropriate conditions on a(t) and b(y). Furthermore, all solutions will be oscillatory subject to a further condition. By oscillatory we shall mean a function having arbitrarily large zeros. The first theorem is an extension of a result of Utz [1] in which he con- siders b(y)=y2n~1. We now prove a result for boundedness of solutions. Theorem I. If a(t)> a>0 and da/dt^O on [T, oo), b(y) continuous, and limj,^±00B(y)=$yb(u) du=co then all solutions of (1) / + a(t)b(y)=0 are bounded as r—>-oo. Proof. Multiply (1) by 2/ to get (2) 2y'y" + 2a(t)b(y)y' = 0. Upon integration by parts we have (3) (y'(uf)\l+ 2a(u)B(y(u))\\o- 2 P df B(y)du = 0. J ir, Uli Thus (4) y'(tf + 2a(t)B(y(t))- 2 f ^ B(y)du = K Jto du where K=y'(t0)2-r-2a(to)B(y(to)). Now the above implies \y'\ and \y\ remain bounded. If not, the left side of (4) would become infinite which is impossible.

  • 1. First Examples a Differential Equation for a Variable U(X, Y, . . .)
    1. First examples A differential equation for a variable u(x; y; : : : ), which depends on the independent variables x, y, . , is an equation which involves u and some of its partial derivatives. Differential equations have traditionally played a huge role in the sciences and so they have been heavily studied in mathematics. If u depends on x and y, there are two partial derivatives, @u @u and : @x @y Since partial differential equations might involve lots of variables and derivatives, it is convenient to introduce some more compact notation. @u @u = u and = u : @x x @y y Note that @2u @2u @2u u = u = and u = : xx @x2 xy @x@y yy @y2 Recall some basic facts about derivatives. First of all derivatives are local, meaning if you only change the function away from a point then the derivative is unchanged (contrast this with the integral, which is far from local; the area under the graph depends on the global behaviour). Secondly if all 2nd derivatives exist and they are continuous then the mixed partials are equal: uxy = uyx: Example 1.1. Suppose that u(x; y) = sin(xy): Then ux = y cos(xy) and uy = x cos(xy): But then uyx = cos(xy) − xy sin(xy) and uxy = cos(xy) − xy sin(xy): Partial differential equations are in general very complicated and normally we can only make sense of the solutions of those equations which come from applications. If there are two space variables then we typically call them x and y but as usual t denotes a time variable and x a space variable.
