Who discovered coordinate graphs?
Rene Descartes invented the coordinate system that is most commonly used (where the two axes are perpendicular to each other, and each point is determined by its projection or "shadow" onto the axes). This is why we call them Cartesian coordinates. I believe the legend is that he was observing a fly on his ceiling when he realized he could describe its position based on the lines formed by his ceiling tiles. There are alternative coordinate systems that used in special situations, such as polar coordinates, cylindrical coordinates, and spherical coordinates. Each system has its strengths and weaknesses and each is well-suited to describing certain kinds of objects or functions. Cartesian coordinates, also called rectilinear coordinates, are useful for describing linear/straight objects, whereas the other coordinate systems I mentioned are better for curved objects.
How is spherical aberration eliminated in a reflecting telescope?
A reflecting telescope should have a parabolic mirror in which case there is no spherical aberration. The process of turning a spherical mirror surface into a parabolic one is called 'figuring'.
What is the difference between a ball point pen and a roller pen?
Ball & Roller Bearings both belongs to the category of radial contact bearings.In case of ball bearings spherical balls are used however in case of roller bearings cylindrical rollers are used.due to balls used in ball bearings there is a point contact is made whether it is line contact in roller.
Does a dome have a hemispherical form?
No a dome has a spherical form. It looks like half a circle
What is the spherical region surrounding the disk of a spiral galaxy which contains globular clusters and reddish population II stars called?
The Galactic halo is the spherical region surrounding the disk of a spiral galaxy which contains globular clusters and reddish population II stars.
How do you derive navier stokes equation in spherical coordinates?
To derive the Navier-Stokes equations in spherical coordinates, we start with the general form of the Navier-Stokes equations in Cartesian coordinates and apply the transformation rules for spherical coordinates ((r, \theta, \phi)). This involves expressing the velocity field, pressure, and viscous terms in terms of the spherical coordinate components. The continuity equation is also transformed accordingly to account for the divergence in spherical coordinates. Finally, we reorganize the resulting equations to isolate terms and ensure they reflect the physical properties of fluid motion in a spherical geometry.
Is optical fiber spherical?
no, its cylindrical
What airplane wing shapes will not work?
spherical, ovoid, cylindrical.
Which one is more sensitive in between two thermometer one having spherical bulb and another having cylindrical bulb?
cylindrical bulb is more sensitive than the spherical bulb.
What is the difference between spherical bearings and cylindrical bearings?
Spherical bearings are round (ball bearings) while cylindrical bearings are in the shape of elongated rods.
What is the limitation of Schrodinger equations and how spherical polar coordination should solve the problem?
the schrodinger wave equation was not able to solve the energy associated with multi-electron atoms. as the no. of electron increases the dimentions also increased hence the problem was solved by spherical polar coordinates .
Differences between cylindrical robot and spherical robot?
Cylindrical robots have a cylindrical work envelope, limited to 2D movements along the x and z axes. Spherical robots, on the other hand, have a spherical work envelope, allowing for more freedom of movement in all directions. Spherical robots are often used for tasks requiring high dexterity and versatility, while cylindrical robots are more suitable for applications with simpler movements along a fixed path.
Why cylindrical bulb is preferred to spherical buldlb in thermometer?
A cylindrical bulb is preferred over a spherical bulb in a thermometer because it allows for more uniform expansion of the liquid inside, resulting in more accurate temperature readings. The shape of the bulb also allows for easier calibration and adjustment of the thermometer. Additionally, a cylindrical bulb is more practical for manufacturing and handling compared to a spherical bulb.
What is a boile?
It is a chemical vessel with a spherical body and a cylindrical neck.
What is the metric in spherical coordinates?
The metric in spherical coordinates is a mathematical formula that describes the distance between points in a three-dimensional space using the radial distance, azimuthal angle, and polar angle. It is used to calculate distances and areas in spherical geometry.
How do you express the electric field due to a point charge in cylindrical coordinates?
The electric field due to a point charge in cylindrical coordinates can be expressed as ( \vec{E} = \frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0} \frac{q}{r} \hat{r} ), where ( q ) is the charge, ( r ) is the radial distance from the point charge, and ( \hat{r} ) is the unit vector in the radial direction.
How can the rotation matrix be expressed in terms of spherical coordinates?
The rotation matrix can be expressed in terms of spherical coordinates by using the azimuthal angle (), the polar angle (), and the radial distance (r) to determine the orientation of the rotation.
