Why was LCD invented?
LCD, or the liquid crystal display, weren't "invented" for use in televisions. Televisions are just one application of liquid crystals. The properties of liquid crystals were noted many years ago. When a voltage is applied to a liquid crystal molecule, it moves, or rotates. This property can be used to affect light transmission through a transparent medium. A liquid crystal display is just an application of this phenomenon. The earliest application I know of was the production of low powered numerical displays used as an alternative to LED seven segment displays. Think of the handheld calculator. It typically uses an LCD. The picture superiority of LCD televisions over CRT is debatable. I own a widescreen CRT television, and I am amazed at how superior it is to typical consumer level LCD or plasma displays in terms of colour accuracy, black levels and contrast. But it sure has its drawbacks: limited size, hernia producing weight and higher power consumption than LCD panels, for example. Plasma displays suck more power than either LCD or CRT, though. I am sure that flat panel displays will one day offer something better, but they just aren't as mature a technology as CRTs yet. But unless you buy used, you are pretty well out of luck for buying a CRT display these days. Also standard crt screens require a lot of power in their vertical and horizontal hold architecture. Using liquid crystal displays reduce the power used. for convenience and luxury
Is torque directly proportional to applied voltage?
Current is directly proportional to applied voltage. Ohm's law.
What does physics deal with?
Physics deals with the study of the fundamental forces and nature of the universe. Chemistry is arguably applied physics, and biology is applied chemistry.

What three types of constraints can be applied to CAD sketchs or models?
Geometric Constraint, Parametric Constraint, and Assembly Constraint
What is numerical solutions of nonlinear equations?
Linear equations, if they have a solution, can be solved analytically. On the other hand, it may not always be possible to find a solution to nonlinear equations. This is where you use various numerical methods (eg Newton-Raphson) to work from one approximate numerical solution to a better solution. This iterative procedure, if properly applied, gives accurate numerical solutions to nonlinear equations. But as mentioned above, they are not arrived at analytically.

What is the difference between the graphical and numerical methods of finding the solution of an equation?
The graphical method is often approximate but can be applied to any function. If done on a computer, the region surrounding the solution can be enlarged to obtain more accurate estimates. A numerical method will give an exact result is an analytical solution is possible. If not, the solution will depend on the numerical method used and, sometimes, the starting "guesstimate".
Can you be diagnoised with fibromyalgia by a doctor pushing on you in certain spots?
Yes. There are certain spots that, if painful when pressure is applied, are indicators of fibromyalgia. This is why physicians press on those spots if they suspect you are suffering from fibromyalgia.
What is the difference between Applied Mathematics and Computational Sciences?
Applied mathematics is a very general term and thus makes this question rather difficult to answer, as it can apply to almost anything where advanced mathematics is used in the study topic. For example: probability, statistics, financial analysis, mechanics, physics, discrete mathematics, graph theory, engineering, numerical analysis, and even cryptology, can all be described as applied mathematics.The one that has the most in common with computer science however is, to my knowledge, numerical analysis. numerical analysis looks at problems in continuous mathematics that can't be solved by conventional analytical methods, and looks at developing algorithms to then solve these problems.Computer science looks at the theory behind information and computation/programming, and applies it to every area, using programmes and software to solve all problems, instead of just the ones looked at by numerical analysis.
What is a phenomenon?
A phenomenon is any occurence, fact, or happening that can be observed. The term is usually applied to something unusual or unique in some way. It is sometimes applied to a person who displays rare talents or abilities (as in sports). When talking about more than one phenomenon, the plural is phenomena.
Explan quantitative management theory applied to production management?
Quantitative management theory is a method that is statistically and mathematically based. Using this theory decisions are made based on the numerical components alone.
