... assume that the system is in thermal equilibrium at temperature T = 300 K, that the gas is at rest in a reference frame rotating with the cylinder, and that the particle velocities are small enough that we can ignore all the Coriolis forces. If P(0) is the pressure on the axis of rotation, find the ...

Discussion Examples Chapter 3: Vectors in Physics
... Insight: Resolving vectors into components takes a little bit of extra effort, but you can get much more accurate answers using this approach than by adding the vectors graphically. Notice, however, that when your calculator returns −10° as the angle in step 5, you must have a picture of the vectors ...

... Let A be an associative algebra over a field K. For a, b ∈ A, the element of A defined by [a, b] = ab − ba is called the commutator of a and b. The corresponding bilinear operation [−, −] : A × A → A is called the commutator bracket. The commutator bracket is bilinear, skew-symmetric, and also satis ...
