8.1 - One Sample Proportion One sample proportion tests and confidence intervals are covered in Section 6.1 of the Lock 5 textbook. In the last lesson you were introduced to the general concept of the Central Limit Theorem. The Central Limit Theorem states that if the sample size is sufficiently large then the sampling...
I've read the proof for why $\int_0^\infty P(X >x)dx=E[X]$ for nonnegative random variables (located here) and understand its mechanics, but I'm having trouble understanding the intuition behind this formula or why it should be the case at all. Does anyone have any insight on this? I bet I'm missing something obvious. ...
It seems that merely loading the graphdrawing library can mess up drawing a tree using the standard TikZ syntax. Is there a way to avoid this unwanted effect?

a) Correct. The new equilibrium position occurs at distance $x=mg/k$ below the initial position (where the collision occurred). Alternatively it is $X=(M+m)g/k$ below the top of the unloaded spring (with no cymbal attached). b) The new angular frequency of oscillations can be written down without any calculation : $\om...
If the question is why the "$4\pi$" in the Coulomb constant (k=$\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}$), then an equally valid question could be why the "4$\pi$" in the magnetic permeability of vacuum, $\mu_{0}=4\pi\times10^{-7}H/m$ ? Perhaps a clue can be found in the Maxwell's equation for the speed of electromagnetic wave (lig...

Standard deviation formula is used to find the values of a particular data that is dispersed. In simple words, the standard deviation is defined as the deviation of the values or data from an average mean. Lower standard deviation concludes that the values are very close to their average. Whereas higher values mean the...
You know that you have $\ell_1=\ell_2=1$, and the $m_{\ell_1}=+1$ while $m_{\ell_2}=-1$. Hence you must have (up to a factor of $1/\sqrt{2}$):$$\vert\psi_\pm\rangle = \vert 1 1\rangle_1\vert 1,-1\rangle_2 \pm \vert 1,-1\rangle_1\vert 1 1\rangle_2$$Now for the spin part, you can conclude likewise that$$\vert\chi_\pm\ran...

Lets refactor and reword these statements for ease of thought. Let $A(n)$ be $Θ(g(n))$. Let $B(n)$ be $O(g(n))$. Note that $A$ implies $B$ because $A$ is stronger than $B$. This means for $A$ to be fulfilled we have to fulfill the criteria of $B$ and more. Therefore $A$ being fulfilled implies $B$ must also be. Written...

Interesting idea to use a grid. I doubt it will work for this question, since writing things in that grid format in a sense splits into arithmetic progressions modulo $p$, and usually saying things about the primes in a progression is harder.

The quantum harmonic oscillator $H=\frac{p^2}{2m}+\frac{1}{2}m\omega^2 x^2$ has energies $E_n=\hbar\omega(n+1/2)$, so to achieve "classical" energies $n$ must be very large. My question is: how does appear the classical behaviour of a point mass in this potential, as energy increases? Classically, a point mass has exac...

that the electron and the proton are a particle pair This may appear inconsistent with current theory, as it is widely assumed that particle pairs created in a single event, must have opposite charge and equal mass (matter/antimatter).

While I was studying the Euler-Lagrange equation, Hamilton's principle of least action and geodesics, I started to wonder how to find the equations of motion of a particle restricted to a particular surface (e.g. the sphere). I know that the Lagrangian is defined as $L=K-U$ where $K$ is the kinetic energy and $U$ is th...
15 minute read In this summary, I assume you are familiar with Markov Decision Processes. In a Markov Decision Process (MDP), an agent interacts with the environment, by taking actions that induce a change in the state of the environment. MDP: The robot knows the position of the fuze bottle. Image courtesy of the Perso...
One of my data anaylsis pet peeves is false precision. Just because it is possible calculate a quantity to three decimal places doesn’t mean all of those decimal places are meaningful. This post explores how much precision is justified in the context of two common sports statistics: batting average in Major League Base...
Question is to check which of the following holds (only one option is correct) for a continuous bounded function $f:\mathbb{R}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$. $f$ has to be uniformly continuous. there exists a $x\in \mathbb{R}$ such that $f(x)=x$. $f$ can not be increasing. $\lim_{x\rightarrow \infty}f(x)$ exists. What all i h...
The supply elasticity at a point is the willingness to produce more or less after the price has changed (due to whatever reason?). $$\mu_{Q,P}=\frac{\partial Q_S/Q_S}{\partial P/P}=\frac{\partial Q_S}{\partial P}\cdot\frac{P}{Q_S}$$ Where $Q_S$ is the quantity supply function, $P$ is the price. $\frac{P}{Q_S}$ is the c...

@egreg It does this "I just need to make use of the standard hyphenation function of LaTeX, except "behind the scenes", without actually typesetting anything." (if not typesetting includes typesetting in a hidden box) it doesn't address the use case that he said he wanted that for @JosephWright ah yes, unlike the hyphe...
I'm working on the mathematical theory of parabolic equations. The prototype of such equations is heat equation given as follows : Let $\Omega$ be a bounded region of the space and $T>0$ a fixed time. In $\Omega_T=(0,T)\times \Omega$ we consider the following equation $$u_t =\alpha\Delta u -a(x)u,$$ $$u(0,x)=f(x),$$ wh...
Definition:T3 1/2 Space Definition Let $T = \left({S, \tau}\right)$ be a topological space. $\left({S, \tau}\right)$ is a $T_{3 \frac 1 2}$ space if and only if: For any closed set $F \subseteq S$ and any point $y \in S$ such that $y \notin F$, there exists an Urysohn function for $F$ and $\left\{{y}\right\}$. Variants...
