41. Shapes Of Constant Width

    Extractions: Recommend this site Shapes of constant width Yes there are shapes of constant width other than the circle No - you can't drill square holes. But saying this was not just an attention catcher. As the applet on the right illustrates, you can drill holes that are almost square - drilled holes whose border includes straight line segments! Now then let us define the subject of our discussion. First we need a notion of width. Let there be a bounded shape. Pick two parallel lines so that the shape lies between the two. Move each line towards the shape all the while keeping it parallel to its original direction. After both lines touched our figure, measure the distance between the two. This will be called the width of the shape in the direction of the two lines. A shape is of constant width if its (directional) width does not depend on the direction. This unique number is called the width of the figure. For the circle, the width and the diameter coincide. The curvilinear triangle above is built the following way. Start with an equilateral triangle. Draw three arcs with radius equal to the side of the triangle and each centered at one of the vertices. The figure is known as the Reuleaux triangle. Convince yourself that the construction indeed results in a figure of constant width. Starting with this we can create more. Rotating Reuleaux triangle covers most of the area of the enclosing square. For the width=1 the following formula is cited in

    Extractions: James G. Gilson, Fine Structure Constant The fine structure constant, a 20th century mystery The question of how to calculate the numerical value of the fine structure constant from theory was one of the most outstandingly difficult problems in mathematical physics for the greater part of the 20th century. There were many unsuccessful attempts by researchers including famous ones such as P. A. M. Dirac to find a formula for the fine structure constant. See John Baez's website page Open Questions in Physics and also the PhysLINK website. Substantial progress with this fundamental problem is outlined on this web page. fundamental quantum coupling constants are given by the very simple formula depending on two integer parameters n and n ,n ) = n The values of the quantum coupling constants are often denoted by the lower case Greek letter alpha alpha with no subscript. = 137 with n The latest CODATA Briefly, the hindsight obviousness of Feynman's conjecture is inherent in the simplest idea of coupling between two systems. Taking one of the objects as fixed in space then, if a second object moves in circles ,n i o i (n), the distance from its center to the center of a side, and a large radius r

Contact Information: jrobinso@d21.k12.il.us Materials: 24 colored tiles per student or group; constant area chart and graph sheet constant perimeter chart and graph sheet Procedure: This activity has two components that allow for the discovery of patterns which suggest the formulas for area and perimeter. Students may work individually or in groups, but groups are recommended. Constant Area: First, students are to find all the rectangular arrays that can be made using 24 tiles. For this exercise, no tile may be stacked on top of another. Students then chart the area and perimeter of each rectangular array made. (The area will always be twenty four, but the perimeter will change.) After recording the data on the chart, students must graph their findings. Finally, students should write 3 observations about the data on either their chart or graph sheet. Constant Perimeter: Second, students are to hold the perimeter of the rectangular arrays to 24 units. This may be illustrated by talking in terms of tables and the number of people who could be seated at each table. Again, no tile may be stacked on another. Students should record the area and perimeter of their arrays on the chart. ( Here the perimeter will always be 24, but the area will change.) After recording the data on the chart, students must graph their findings. Finally, students should write 3 observations about their data either on their chart or on their graph sheet.

Advanced /The Math Object Browser Compatibility: NS 4+, IE 4+ The Math object of JavaScript allows you to perform certain calculations by using method functions of the Math object. Also, it provides a few constants such as pi. The easiest way to get a value is to define a variable and set its value to a property or function of the Math Object. If you want to use a property, which returns a constant value (such as pi), you would write something like this: var my_car=Math.property; You would replace the word "property" with the property you want to use. So, if you want to use the value of pi in a variable, you would use the PI property of the Math object. You would write: var my_pie=Math.PI; This returns the pi constant, a number with lots of decimals, or 3.14..... If you want to use a member function, which performs a calculation, you would write something like this: var my_house=Math.function(x); Most of the member functions have one or more parameters, which is what the "x" is for. You can replace x with a number or variable. You would replace the word "function" with the function you want to use. For instance, if you want the square root of a number, you can call the square root member function of the Math object with the number as the parameter: var my_money=Math.sqrt(2);

Recommended Books Introduction In a previous article , we introduced the Riemann integral and developed a limit process for calculating it. We mentioned that the integral represents the area under the curve f(x) to the x-axis starting with x = a and ending with x = b, and stated without any support at all that the integral was the inverse operation to the derivative. We now take up this idea in detail, and supply some more technical groundwork for the theory of the integral. return to top Derivatives and antiderivatives Elsewhere In practice, this definition can get difficult to use rather fast, so we derived an easier-to-use formula that works for powers of x only: Although good only for polynomial functions, this is a very useful formula. Using the formula is equivalent to the operations: multiply by the power of x and then subtract 1 from the exponent. Were we to write this process as an operator acting on the function, we might define the operator as: The operator acts on the nth-order polynomial function x n by multiplying by n the next smallest polynomial function x n-1 . We bring up operators (naively, to be sure) to point out that there can then be an "inverse" operator I

    Extractions: Next: Force Revisited Up: CONSERVING EQUATIONS Previous: CONSERVING EQUATIONS In the last unit, we discussed how mathematicians and scientists deal with quantities that change in ways other than linearly. The key idea turns out to be the rate of change of the quantity. The lowbrow way to measure the rate of change is to compute the average rate of change over a small interval. The high-class way to talk about change is to try to compute the derivative , or instantaneous rate of change In real-world situations, when one deals with measured data, it is often the case that the data has been measured only for certain specific values of the independent variable. Then, one can only compute average rates of change between the data points. But in mathematics, when one deals with abstractly-defined functions, it is possible to compute derivatives. Often, mathematical models are developed using derivatives, predictions are made based upon these mathematical models, and then experimental results are compared to the predictions to see how well the models reflect reality. 1.
