  2. Mass point geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_point_geometry

    All problems that can be solved using mass point geometry can also be solved using either similar triangles, vectors, or area ratios, [2] but many students prefer to use mass points. Though modern mass point geometry was developed in the 1960s by New York high school students, [ 3 ] the concept has been found to have been used as early as 1827 ...

  3. Carothers equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carothers_equation

    The simplest case refers to the formation of a strictly linear polymer by the reaction (usually by condensation) of two monomers in equimolar quantities. An example is the synthesis of nylon-6,6 whose formula is [−NH−(CH 2) 6 −NH−CO−(CH 2) 4 −CO−] n from one mole of hexamethylenediamine, H 2 N(CH 2) 6 NH 2, and one mole of adipic acid, HOOC−(CH 2) 4 −COOH.

  4. Golden ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_ratio

    The golden ratio φ and its negative reciprocal −φ −1 are the two roots of the quadratic polynomial x 2 − x − 1. The golden ratio's negative −φ and reciprocal φ −1 are the two roots of the quadratic polynomial x 2 + x − 1. The golden ratio is also an algebraic number and even an algebraic integer.

  5. Doubling the cube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doubling_the_cube

    In algebraic terms, doubling a unit cube requires the construction of a line segment of length x, where x 3 = 2; in other words, x = , the cube root of two. This is because a cube of side length 1 has a volume of 1 3 = 1, and a cube of twice that volume (a volume of 2) has a side length of the cube root of 2.

  6. Stiff equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stiff_equation

    For some problems this is not the case. In order for a numerical method to give a reliable solution to the differential system sometimes the step size is required to be at an unacceptably small level in a region where the solution curve is very smooth. The phenomenon is known as stiffness. In some cases there may be two different problems with ...

  7. The spider and the fly problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_spider_and_the_fly_problem

    The spider is 1 foot below the ceiling and horizontally centred on one 12′×12′ wall. The fly is 1 foot above the floor and horizontally centred on the opposite wall. The problem is to find the minimum distance the spider must crawl along the walls, ceiling and/or floor to reach the fly, which remains stationary. [1]

  8. Goat grazing problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goat_grazing_problem

    The primary parameters of the problem are , the tether length defined to be 160yds, and , the radius of the silo. There is no necessary relationship between R {\displaystyle R} and r {\displaystyle r} , but here r = 160 2 π {\displaystyle r={\tfrac {160}{2\pi }}} is the radius of the circle whose circumference is R {\displaystyle R} .

  9. Golden-section search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden-section_search

    The golden-section search is a technique for finding an extremum (minimum or maximum) of a function inside a specified interval. For a strictly unimodal function with an extremum inside the interval, it will find that extremum, while for an interval containing multiple extrema (possibly including the interval boundaries), it will converge to one of them.
