Is there really a way to do math in your head faster?

Alot if books claim to teach their super secret methods, are any of them true? Any recommendations?

I'd like to do math quicker, particularly percentages and fractions. How do all the tv "human calculators" do it? Do you recommend learning it?

- probably
- it doesn't matter
- you're wasting time not learning higher level. You don't need mega arithmatic skills.

The only way to do math faster is to do lots and lots of it. Its basically like any other skill.

What is the objective of topology?

>>
>>7972711
Topology can be thought of abstracting the notion of limits and "closeness" in calculus. It allows you to extend these ideas to in different ways to spaces more exotic than standard Euclidean space.

Ionic bonds are typically between metals and non-metals.

Beryllium is a Metal, and Nitrogen is a non metal.

Why is this book showing Be3N2 as having a covalent bond?
Is this an exception to this general rule?

so ive got a horrible function and shit. when i do
plots[animate](plot, [Ax-axionAx, z = 0 .. 200], t = 0 .. 1/1500000, frames = 100)
i get pic related, but when i do
plot3d(axionAx-Ax, z = 0 .. 200, t = 0 .. 1/1500000)
i get whats in the next picture.

I dont know. I can estimate it with graphs, but I dont know how to calculate it.

unless im just forgetting something really basic like an idiot...
>>
>>7971740

[eqn]\sin \theta = \cos \theta[/eqn]
[eqn]\sin \theta = \sqrt{1-\sin^2\theta}[/eqn]
[eqn]2\sin^2 \theta = 1[/eqn]
[eqn]\sin \theta = \pm \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}[/eqn]

Moral of the story, substitute either sin or cos and solve for the trig function.

Where do I even start with this problem? I get the feeling that I'm supposed to use differentiation to prove this, but it explicitly says right there that F=ma can't happen because m is not constant for particles.

I've never taken physics in my life.

>>7971565
in SR, write the product of m times v

then write v = v(t) since v depends on time t, then differentiate with respect to time t

usual the chain rule

then render manifest some acceleration a, which is defined as whatever makes you get the final result on your sheet
>>
>>7971586
>then write v = v(t) since v depends on time t, then differentiate with respect to time t
What I posted is the entire text of the problem. There's no v or m given elsewhere to differentiate, or any other functions for that matter.
>>
>>7971593
you are wrong

you know that F = d/dt (mv) which is true in SR

but in SR the mass m= m(v) is what is given, with v depending on time t, so you must be careful when you differentiate wrt the time t

in newton, mass is cst wrt the time t and the velocity v.

your whole problem is a chain rule.

there's more hydrogen in the universe than other elements. what else you fucking idiot? jesus how is this a question? think about it; the progenitors of other elements are these stars. when they exceed a certain size they reach a critical phase that prevents an accretion disk of a large enough scale that could produce fuckhuge exoplanets.

The rich get richer. The biggest object around tends to accumulate more mass than other nearby objects, making it even bigger, and even for likely to pick up mass, and so on. Also with the really big ones a lot of their volume isnt particularly dense
