    the discriminant is: Δ = b2 − 4ac. The discriminant can be used to characterize the solutions of the equation as: 1) Δ> 0 two separate real solutions; 2) Δ = 0 two coincident real solutions (or one repeated root); 3) Δ <0 no real solutions. For example: x2 −x −2 = 0. Where: a = 1, b = −1 and c = −2.

  7. Special Limits Involving sin (x), x, and tan (x) - Socratic

    5 minutes This is a common ratio problem. If we set it up dimensionally first, then put in the values, we will be assured that the result is also correct. “Minutes” and “Machines” are the variables, with the ratio of machines to widgets being fixed within any time interval. Each machine is producing ONE widget in FIVE minutes. Production = 1 "Machine" xx (1 "Widget")/(5 "Minutes ...

  10. Naming Aromatics - Organic Chemistry - Socratic

    socratic.org/organic-chemistry-1/nomenclature/naming-aromatics

    An aromatic hydrocarbon is a hydrocarbon that contains 4n +2 electrons in a planar conjugated π system (n = 0,1,2,…). The most common aromatic compounds contain benzene rings (n = 1). Examples are toluene and trinitrotoluene (TNT). But any planar cyclic hydrocarbon that contains 2, 6, 10, 14 … π electrons is aromatic.

  11. Properties of Light - Physics - Socratic

    socratic.org/physics/light-and-reflection/properties-of-light

    Light is electromagnetic so it consists of oscillating electric and magnetic fields. The visible part of the spectrum has a wavelength range of 3.7 × 10−7 —7.4 ×10−7m. All electromagnetic waves have a speed of 3.0 × 108 m s−1 in a vacuum. Light can be reflected, refracted, diffracted, polarised ( polarized in US English), and superposed.
