Hello. Iām not sure if this is the correct channel for this type of question, if not please let me know. Iām looking for some advice. I am a Computer Science Major and also working on a minor in Mathematics. Here is a background of the courses I have taken so far:
Calculus I
Calculus II
Linear Algebra
Discrete
Probability & Statistics (taking this over the summer)
I would like to go to grad school to study mathematics and earn a Masters degree. That said I have been feeling uncertain about the courses which I should take to elevate my application. So here are a few questions I have:
- Is it plausible for someone with a CS undergrad to pursue a masters in mathematics? That is to say, would grad schools look at my application?
- If the answer to question 1 is āyesā, the next question becomes, what courses should I take during my undergrad to āelevateā my application and make me stand out. Some people have recommended real analysis, which would require me to take calculus 3 and intro to proofs as pre-requisites.
- Am I looking at this the wrong way overall? What do you guys think?
Thank you for your time.
I am probably gonna take calculus 3 regardless by the way, i think thatās probably a must have
Help channels are for specific questions, try #study-discussion, the discussion channels, etc?
thank you guys, i apologize
it says no access
Need undergrad role.
dont worry, study discussion is a good channel to go to for it

let $u_0 = 4$, $u_1 = u_2 = 0$, $u_3=3$, $u_{n+4}=u_n+u_{n+1}$. show that every prime number $p$ divides $u_p$
bloubbloub
no idea where to start
I also have no ideia, but what I would probably try is suppose there is some p such that p doesnt divide u_p. Then take the smalest p such that p does not divide u_p
Now let's see
@shadow marlin Has your question been resolved?
Nah
I'm not sure how you can use any kind of induction since p-4 and p-3 are not very well known
Maybe it's best too look what are primes congruent mod 4
There's a tree like structure that ends at either 4 or 3 in the end
if you write $u_n = u_{n-4} + u_{n-3}$
tales
Then write $u_{n-4} = u_{n-8} + u_{n-7}$ etc
tales
somewhere you'll end up at either 3 or 4
And somehow use some fact about congruence of p mod 4
Does it look like it's promising?
not sure
why is that
ok i get it
but I don't see how it could help
Every prime greater than 2 either has p = 1 mod 4 or p = 3 mod 4
So $u_{p - 4n}$ ends up in $u_{1}$ or $u_3$
tales
I was thinking also maybe we can count the number of u0 and u3 that appear as leaves of the "tree"
tales
tales
Write $p = 4n + r$, were $ r = 1$ or $r = 3$
tales
Assume $r=1$ for simplicity
tales
tales
Compile Error! Click the
reaction for more information.
(You may edit your message to recompile.)
not really i dont think so
$u_{13} = u_9 + u_{10} = (u_5 + u_6) + (u_6 + u_7) = ( (u_1+u_2) + (u_2 + u_3)) + ((u_2+u_3) + (u_3 + u_4))$
tales
it would be something like $\sum_{i=0}^n \binom{i+4(n-i)/3}{i}$
bloubbloub
counting the pairs i, j such that 4i + 3j = 4n
I think you could find an induction formula for this number of the form : x_n = x_{n-4} + x_{n-3}
but I don't think it's useful
I should specify that I am allowed to use abstract-ish algebra. When I asked chatgpt it tried something with an extension of Z/pZ, which I believe was false, but maybe there's something there
Yeah, It would involve powers of irrationals probably
@shadow marlin Has your question been resolved?
but it's a lot of handwaving which makes my head hurt trying to understand it.
<@&268886789983436800> this guy is everywhere
I feel like this can be solved writing u_n general formula out
you have characteristic equation r^4 = r + 1, with 4 different roots r_1,...,r_4
so $u_n = ar_1^n + br_2^n + cr_3^n + dr_4^n$
Rafilouyear2026
wouldn't you know it, initial conditions line up perfectly with a=b=c=d=1
and then remember that (a+b)^p = a^p + b^p mod p
are the roots in C or an extension of Fp
roots are in C
so how can I use this
oh ok
uh
wait
you can work in the ring A =B/pB, where B= Z[r_1,r_2,r_3,r_4]
i see
thank you

Hi, I am starting with limits and i am js wondering whether this is correct.
Show that lim x->1 (5x-3) = 2
Heres my answer :
We can set x0 as 1 since the value of x is approaching 1. Hence 0<mod(x-1)<delta. Epsilon>mod((f(x)-L)) Therefore Epsilon>mod(5x-5) So : mod(x-1)<Epsilon/5 0<mod(x-1)<Delta Hence delta = epsilon/5.
I know its probably pretty bad but i js need some help refining it

use separation of variables 
we haven't been taught to do that
what methods have you been taught so far?
i would recommend learning separation of variables, as this is a nonlinear ODE
since you have that v^2 term
hold on
hmm
the original question was to set up an equation
that describes the velocity of the object

Hey I'm like reaaally really bad at math and I get stuck easily, but I also learn fast I need some help with this š„²
What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin.
2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above
Well I did number 2 and that one I understand, but in 3 I don't get what Im supposed to do, like With the f(-3) and f(2), how do I use them?
Can I ask a off topic ques?
You're meant to find those on the graph.
The curve on the graph gives you pairs of point (x,f(x)).
go ahead
Do yk Ariis the Phonk song maker?
So for f(-3), you would look at where x=-3 is and see how high the curve is at this point.
Ok I see that now I think, in the X axis before the -4 where it touches would be the -3?
I that what it means? š
Is*
I have heard a song or two by him haha
OHH
Your goal is to find how high that point is on the curve.
Which you can infer from the gridlines
Yes
like the 2 on the y axis?
OHHH
What about f(2)?
Yes
YAAAY
and 3b is the same?
well like searching the y value? if that makes sense
Well now you're given the second coordinate essentially.
So you can do the reverse : start at y=4 on the axis, then move along that horizontal line to see where the curve is at this level.
Yes
so when y=-4
y=4
Yes
okay this is so helpfull
tysm
so I think I undersand what to do in number 3
can I try and then I send my answers? to see if they are correct?
okaay im getting lost again
Im using like a base 7= a(1)+b as a base at first
idk if that is right?
like -5= a(3) +b?
yes
cause I just stoped with 7-b=a
Oh I think I know what to do next
then I have b= -5/3 + a? or is that wrong
You have 7 = a+b and and -5 = 3a + b.
You may use b = 7-a and plug that for b in the other equation. Then solve for a.
With b=7-a, you get -5 = 3a +(7-a).
No. It's the same as -5 = 3a + 7 - a

The question says
āFind a possible formula for the quadratic function described.ā
A) Graph has vertex (-2,4) and y-intercept -8
ok so do you know basics of quadratics?
I know I have to use the vertex formula so i got to
y=a(x+2)^2+4
But iām confused because the answer key shows that i need to get rid of the x why??
This is the answer key given to us
I just wanna understand it :,3
ok I got no idea why they did tht
they just substitued x = 0 and y = -8
remember that the y-intercept is -8
so the graph cuts the y-axis at (0,-8)
that's what they substituted
Ohhhh OKAY!
Are they using ax^2+bx+c for the final formula or?
Is it just vertex cuz iām confused
I mean they just actually substituted x = 0 and y = -8 here
they did'nt use any formula; they just used the fact that the graph cuts the y-axis at (0,-8)
as to how they got that expression, thats via vertex form I feel
Okok that makes sense! Ty ty

Prove simpson's 1/3 rule
Let $I_{[c,d]}$ be the integral of a function on $[c,d]$.
\begin{proof}
Let $f : [a,b] \to \mathbb{R}$. We now chose to partition $[a,b]$ using $n$ points. Thus each partition is of length $\frac{b-a}{n}$. Let the partition be ${x_0,\dots,x_{n-1},x_n}$, where $x_0=a,x_n=b$.
Then on each interval $I_{[x_{i-1},x_{i+1}]}= f(x_{i-1})+4f(x_{i})+f(x_{i+1})$.
We note that $i$ must be even in order to obtain intervals, such that , adjacent intervals' intersection only contains one common point.
We then have $I_{[a,b]}= \sum_{i=1}^{ n/2} f(x_{i-1})+4f(x_{i})+f(x_{i+1})$ where we assume $n$ to be even for simplicity.
Note $$I_{[a,b]}= \sum_{i=1}^{ n/2} f(x_{i-1})+4f(x_{i})+f(x_{i+1}) = f(x_{0})+ 4f(x_1)+ 2f(x_2)+ \dots+ f(x_n)$$ . We then get $I_{[a,b]}= \sum_{i=0}^{ n/2} = f_{x_{0}} + 4 \sum_{i=1}^{n/2} f(x_{i})+ 2 \sum_{j=1}^{n/2-1}f(x_j)+f(x_{n})$.
\end{proof}
what a wonderful world(wai)
ykw, can I have this checked for now
If $n$ were odd replace n/2 with it's ceiling/2
what a wonderful world(wai)
you are like
missing the width here
there be a delta x/3 term multiplying all those functions
also
simpson's rule requires n to be even
oops
you cant just ceil it
right yes just noticed that bit
got it
but also
other than that it;s fine?
you need to explicitly show why the integral over a single subinterval equals that sum
I suppose I should explain where the factor of two comes from
as in simpson's formula for one sub interval
That would be doable using langarnge interpolation too I suppose
I'm not sure what you are even trying to prove here.
This neither derives the formula for the parabolic caps nor does it show that this scheme converges to the integral
the composite 1/3 rule
I missed that in the title š
I don't see how that addresses my comment
I meant to prove the composite 1/3 rule

@marsh gorge what have you tried
nothing idk anything
do you know how to calculate the area of a sector
nope
do you know how to calculate the area of a circle
i mightve forgot but it was pi and r^2 i think
ĻαμOmeganato5
yep good i remmeber something for once
is there a formula?
Yes
what is it
area of a sector would be a fraction of the full area,
specifically the ratio of the angle of the sector and a full revolution
is there no A=......
Wdym
-# yes there is a direct formula but rn omega is explaining where the formula comes from so u can derive it urself i belive
like for example for an area of a triangle we use a^2+b^2=c^2
A of sector = fraction of the circle * area of full circle
fahhh
so fraction/pi*r^2?
no
Writing that mathematically gives you $$A_{\text{sector}} = \frac{\theta^c}{2\pi} \cdot \pi r^2$$
ok
ĻαμOmeganato5
what does c mean
where $\theta^c$ is the angle in radians
ĻαμOmeganato5
ok
just notation
but what if i had degree would it be same formula
so same formula?
-# it would be /360 instead but essential same idea
same idea, different units
ohh ok thanks
so is that all i need to know?
no, you also need to know how to calculate the area of a SAS triangle
ik how to
ok, then you should be able to finish the problem
thank u imma try and show u if thats ok
note that i didn't simplify the formula above
that would be an exercise for you to do
and you can check with the formula you find online / in your book
uhh what?
don't round too early,
also which part of what you replied to don't you understand
you don't have to
but it's less things to write down in the future if you do
well did i do it right?
and that's what will come up when you look up area of a sector
yes

for scientific notation lets say i wanted to write 10^8 in decimals where do i start counting from? Like do i start counting from 1. and then go 8 digits to the right or start counting from 10. and go 8 digits to the right? Same thing for negative values from where do i start counting from if i wanna write it in decimals.
What negative values exactly
Think about scientific notation being the decimal point moving
If you multiply by 10, it moves one space the left
And the other way round
negative scientific notations like 10^-8, i think im using the wrong word to describe it
I can answer those by memory but the thing is when it comes to bigger numbers I don't know where i should start counting from and I usually end up writing an extra 0 or two.
.
10^-2 = 0.001
10^-3=0.0001
10^-4=0.00001
i feel like thats wrong tho
Result:
0.01
where does the decimal point start
what
you can see this right?
cause for 10^-2 i know u have to shift the decimal point 2 to the left but I don't know from where I should start counting the decimal points.
no but before you calculate it
I'm wording this very poorly i know
i hope u can understand my point
you're just doing this right now. you haven't even found a pattern yet
not at all
I know it increases by an extra 0, every time the power goes up but that's not my issue.
thats the pattern you're talking about
can't help if you're not listening ĀÆ_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Okay I think we got off on the wrong foot here, I know I'm not making a whole lotta sense to you but I'm having trouble understanding you as well. So can we try again?

Find the point on y=x^3-3x^2+x+3 that is closest to the point (1,5).
Round to 3 decimal places as necessary in the final result.
What have you tried so far?
Looking for a solution with minimal calculator work
Don't know how to approach these types of problems, just made one up and sent it here for that reason
Well what I think would be to either minimize the distance formula or intuitvely i'd say it's either the distance from the local max to the point or the around y=5
Hold on I think I have an idea now
So minimize sqrt((x-1)^2+(y-5)^2) on the curve
I'll change that to (x-1)^2+(y-5)^2 for simplicity
yes
Local minima occur where the derivative is zero
I guess find the derivative with respect to x of this formula?
yea
So i can use 2(x-1)+2(y-5)(dy/dx)=0
dy/dx=(1-x)/(y-5) correct?
yes
This will makes sense if you plot the distance func
https://www.desmos.com/calculator/v4izsreno4
Oh and then find the derivative with respect to x of the cubic
yes
dy/dx=3x^2-6x+1 and then set that =(1-x)/(y-5)
3x^2-6x+1=(1-x)/(y-5)
I'm on the right track still?
you'd end up with some quintic polynomial
And then set this equal to the RHS of the original cubic I suppose?
yes

The cells of an 8x8 board are filled with the numbers from 1 to 64, with 1 number in each cell, such that any 2 numbers with a difference of 1 are located in orthogonally adjacent cells (sharing a common edge, and the other way around doesn't have to be true ). Compute the maximum sum of numbers on the diagonal
like 456
what
idk what to do tbh
not even where to start?
we are constructing a hamilton path that's all I know
with each cell is a vertex
-# ping me if anyone has an idea
my bad had to do something
anyways
this is just a chessboard
32 white 32 black
any two numbers with a difference of 1 (consecutive numbers) must be in orthogonally adjacent cells
in a chessboard coloring, orthogonally adjacent cells always have opposite colors
this means that if 1 is on a white cell, 2 must be on a black cell, 3 on a white cell, and so on
All odd numbers
$\{1, 3, 5, \dots, 63}$ are on one color.\
All even numbers
$\{2, 4, 6, \dots, 64}$ are on the other color.
thecrumbeler2
okay?
gng let me set up the problem before you okay me
in an 8x8 board, the cells on a main diagonal all have the same color
since there are 8 cells on the diagonal, and they all share the same color, the numbers occupying these cells must either all be odd or all be even
therefore, in order to maximize the sum, we want to pick the 8 largest numbers available for a single color
there are 2 cases
all evens or all odds
The even numbers are ${2, 4, 6, \dots, 64}$. The 8 largest even numbers are: 50, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60, 62, 64
thecrumbeler2
The odd numbers are ${1, 3, 5, \dots, 63}$. The 8 largest odd numbers are: $49, 51, 53, 55, 57, 59, 61, 63$
thecrumbeler2
Okay
when u add them all up
no
For any 8x8 board, we can construct a path that visits the diagonal cells at specific times

<@&268886789983436800>
no that doesn't seem obtainable
give me your reason for why
say if we go from 1 to 64, because any 2 consecutive numbers have to be orthogonally adjacent, this means any 1->64 would be a hamilton path
say this diagonal, it divide the board into 2 parts, if you fill the diagonal then you will me stuck in one the lower part or upper part. so you would have to fill one one part first before you fill up the diagonal
Let say you fill one part before you fill a single cell in the diagonal, then the highest you can go for the lowest cell in the diagonal is (64-8)/2
or 28
which is in neither cases you stated
@thin cloud Has your question been resolved?
this is a much harder question than i originally thought it was
each triangle has 12 white + 16 black cells, not 14+14...
the diagonal is all white
the board has 32W/32B total, so off diagonal whites = 24, which split as 12 per triangle. The other 16 cells per triangle are black
any path confined to one triangle has at most 25 cells
running out of whites
if we let t1 < t2 < ⯠< t8 be the times the path visits the diagonal
before t1 the path is stuck in one triangle cause it cant switch without crossing so t1 - 1 <= 25 meaning t1 <= 26
between t1 and t2 its still stuck so t2 - t1 - 1 <= 25 so t2 <= 52
for i >= 3 consecutive diagonal cells arent orthogonally adjacent so t_i+1 -t_i >= 2
so best possible is 26+52+54+56+58+60+62+64 = 432ā

Anyone know a video or source for good calculation shortcut for long algebra or anything that is used in competitive exam like jee
Also need help in am gm hm and rms inequality
What specifically
I would recommend practicing. From my experience, I always forget multiplication tricks. Maybe write hard questions on a paper and test yourself to get it faster
For jee competitive exam for calculus(not started) algebra(quadratic sands trigo and trigonfun )
Conic section
Here whole syllabus
If you know all the formulas , the best thing to do is to practice questions. I haven't written the JEE, but upon googling it seems like an Indian Engineering Exam
Ya
Bro i have practiced many questions but evey 10 to 15 questions u have to ise some trick to save time
As we have to do questions in 2 min or less
If u known a source can u tell me
One thing that you can try, is solve a question, look at a video online about the solution, and try solve the question 3 days later. It sometimes helps me to remember tricks to solving certain questions. Also, I would recommend for any exam to solve question papers from previous years
?
Can u help me solve que 2
,rccw
det is determinant 
how does one do that really is the question?
Use some logic u have 2 min to do it
Then with the products you can find the determinant
It can't be calculative
It doens take that long to multiply 2 matrices
Bro if i got similar questions in exam it would take atleat 4 to 5 min to solve it carefully and solve 4*4 matrix
Just multiply it
do you know rank of a matrix
It has something to do with rank
||won't it be a 3x3 matrix i havent done matrices in a while||
oh nvm it's 43 34
mb
Its A x B sonit would be 4x 4 matrix
it is 4 x3 multiplied by 3 by 4 = 4x4
look at the ends
Sounds tedious.
you arent supposed to multiply
Rlly? If i got that question in an exam I would immediately multiply
wait is not easier to first find determinant of each first
If they are 2x2.
because jee is like a race against time kind of exam
Rank AB is always less than or equal to min(RankA,rankB)
det(AB) = det(A) det(B) ?
so every q HAS to be done in 1.5 mins
Rlly? I don't know much about that exam...
How to get rank of matrix i haven't learn it
you get approx 1.5mins per q
Damn
that sounds less tedious anyways
Its not square matric
Well first, look at A.
how you do this is, rank of AB will not exceed 3
rank A = number of columns.
No sols btw.
But why can rank exceed it
isnt JEE mcq based asw
he had asked the same q in the morning
But you should appeal to the fact that AB is singular.
It has integrr 5 too and 20 mcq
Our sir told us take we are not able to understand as grade 11 th students
our sir had taken this kind of stuff
so i know
In which class u learned it and how to find it btw
its a local
not big
it wont be in jee tho
its just for info
because rank isnt in the jee cirriculum
if im correct
But how to know if a thing will not exceed that rank or not
I saw whole series
or you row reduce the matrix
that question isnt from jee syllabus
Gauss elimination?
so you dont need to sweat it
into its RREF form
yea
My whole mind became graph
Again, as Velt said, it is quite tedious.
Since you are expected to spend 1 minute per question.
it is yea, but that's how you find the rank
Well rank = number of columns.
Rank of line 1 plane 2 volume 3
well, linearly independent

@mossy chasm Has your question been resolved?
is there a diagram?
@mossy chasm Has your question been resolved?
@mossy chasm Has your question been resolved?
yes and here is how would i convince you without writing the entire formula down
scale the entire triangle down such that |ā³AFB| = 1/2. then perform an affine transformation T such that F lands at (0, 0), A lands at (0, 1), and B lands at (1, 0). notice that this transformation preserves the area of ā³AFB, hence preserves all areas. then the area of ā³EAF uniquely determines the line EA, and likewise with ā³DBF and the line DB. so the coordinates of point C can be written down in terms of these areas, and you can use heron's formula to find |CDFE|.

Total possibilities =5! Ć4!
there are 5 spots to put the first boy, 4 to put the second, etc... hence 5! possibilities for boys, similar logic gives 4! possibilities for girls

These are notes my teacher gave for the LCT test. It says to see if An converges/diverges then Bn must converge, but isn't rhe whole point of the test to see if Bn follows An?
,rccw
ty
so i asked some1 and they said if the limit comp of them is > 0 then An follows Bn
but if its smaller than 0 or 0 then An doesn't follow Bn so it does the opposite
@shell plover Has your question been resolved?
This is bullshit.
First of all, the test requires positive terms, so the limit can't be less than zero
If the limit is a finite number greater than zero, then $\sum a_n$ and $\sum b_n$ either both converge or both diverge.
Civil Service Pigeon
If the limit of $\frac{a_n}{b_n}$ is zero, then $\sum b_n$ converges $\implies$ $\sum a_n$ converges, but the test is inconclusive if $\sum b_n$ diverges.
Civil Service Pigeon
Which is (hopefully) what the image says
looking up the statements of tests/theorems online is also a thing
thank you
and sorry :(
the tldr is that the limit comparison test is supposed to determine the behaviour of an unknown series by comparing it to an unknown series ($\sum a_n$ and $\sum b_n$, respectively)
Civil Service Pigeon
I think that's everything I have to say

I have been experimenting with the quadratic dynamical system
[
N = 2k+11,
\qquad
U_0 = k+1,
\qquad
U_{n+1} \equiv U_n^2-k \pmod N.
]
We say that (N) is captured at iteration (n) if
[
U_n^2 \equiv k \pmod N.
]
Equivalently,
[
U_{n+1} \equiv 0 \pmod N.
]
If the orbit enters a cycle without ever reaching this condition,
I call (N) non-captured.
Empirically, I observe the following:
For captured composite integers (N), their divisors (both prime and composite) also seem to be captured.
Example patterns suggest a possible hereditary property under divisibility.
My question is:
If an iterate satisfies
[
U_m \equiv 0 \pmod N,
]
does it follow trivially from CRT/modular projection that every divisor (d \mid N) must also be captured under the induced system modulo (d)?
Or is there some subtlety due to the dependence
[
N = 2k+11
]
and therefore the parameter (k) changing with the modulus?
mojogi.

so in a cartasian product
does it have to be two non zero sets?
or i can take one null set and one non zero set
nd basically have the non zero set back
like AXB=A where B is a null set while A is a non zero set
I'm assuming you're using "null set" to mean an empty set
yea yea
in which case the cartesian product of any set $A$ and an empty set $B$ is always the empty set
Civil Service Pigeon
since the empty set has no elements to begin with, meaning no elements can be formed
A is not an empty set as per your definition
so no
That's what I just said
$A \times B$ will always be the empty set if $B$ is the empty set

Hi
Yes I have
Yeah thatās the goal
Thanks Chiaki!
Okay, let me take a look at that problem.
Have you found the arc length?
Recall that the arc length = $r\cdot \theta$.
Mercury (ć¤ćć©ć)
Yep
I am asking OP.
Then what is the arc length?
-# sorry
Idk what theta is
Suppose let angle just be theta, then what is the length?
In term of Theta.
7 x theta
Now, what's the period?
This
I am just going to copy the image here again, to see it easier.
Then recall this, the pendulum travels 4 amplitudes.
In 1 period.
Amplitude in terms of arc length will be?
4 x 7 x pi/15
Also, the remaining time is?
6-5.31 =0.69
Now, at t = 6, can you find displacement?
The angle is pi/15cos(root35/5 x 0.69)
But it says the original angle is not theta = 0
So im not sure what the displacement is
At t = 6, $\theta(6) = \frac{\pi}{15}\cos(6\sqrt{1.4})$ rad.
Mercury (ć¤ćć©ć)
Right?
Yep
But you knew this already: Which is the length of the arc.
Then arc position when t = 6 is?
7 times this
Yeah
Then the pendulum has travelled one full cycle and swinging back to its centre.
So it would be distance in 1 period + (amplitude in terms of arc length - position when t = 6).
I donāt understand
Well, what did you get for amplitude in terms of arc length?
This, right?
Yes
Now, position when t = 6?
Itās here
7 times it.
Correct.
What is the total distance in 1 period?
pi/15 x 4 x 7
Correct.
Now, we knew that at t = 6, the pendulum travelled for a cycle, and going back to the centre again, right?
Yes
So you want to take the full cycle length.
Add to the extra time we travel.
Because each cycle only 5. something seconds, 6 seconds is exceeding that.
So it must travelling some extra distances.
Yes
So you got it now?
I think so
So we have the distance travelled in one period + the extra distance
= pi/15 x 4 x 7
The extra distance is
Umm
Well, at t = 6, we found out the arc is somewhere around 0.9?
Itās the angular displacement from the original angle
The arc position is somewhere around 0.9 at t = 6.
When time is 0 the angle is pi/15
Yes
And this is measure from the equilibrium.
Or (the centre).
Ohhh
But at the start of the second cycle, the height was like at 1.4 something?
Yeah
No worries!
