Find the general solution of the differential equation d^2y/dx^2 - 5*dy/dx + 4y = 2x

Solve complimentary function: Let y = emx then,
d2y/dx2 - 5dy/dx + 4y = 0
m2emx - 5memx + 4emx = 0 (substituting fo...

In simple harmonic motion, where would the object have the largest speed. If the angular velocity is 2 rad s^-1, and the amplitude is 1m, what is the largest speed obtained by the object?

The largest speed is obtained at the position of equilibrium.

v=Aw

So v= 2 x 1

     v=2ms-1

How do I know when I should be using the Poisson distribution?

To identify a Poisson distribution question, remember that in a Poisson distribution... Events occur independently of each other Events occur at a constant rate Events occur singly (that is, two can't hap...

Why does matrix multiplication seem so unintuitive and weird?!

You're right, when you first learn about matrix multiplication it definitely doesn't feel like the easiest way of defining a form of multiplication.  This is particularly true if you've just lear...

A curve has equation y=(2-x)(1+x)+3, A line passes through the point (2,3) and the curve at a point with x coordinate 2+h. Find the gradient of the line. Then use that answer to find the gradient of the curve at (2,3), stating the value of the gradient

The gradient of the line is given by change in Y divided by change in X. To find the Y value of the point we must put 2+h into the y=(2-x)(1+x)+3. Doing this we get y=(2-(2+h))(1+(2+h))+3=(-h)(3+h)+3= -3h...
