  1. What do convergence and divergence mean? And why do they matter?

    I understand that when a series diverges, y doesn't approach 0 when x approaches infinity, and converging series do. But what does this say? I just want to understand some applications. NOTE: I'm...

  2. Series that converge to $\pi$ quickly - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    In particular, take a look at the latest version of his talk on "The life of pi" (and its references!), which includes many of the fast converging algorithms and series used in practice for high precision …

  3. Why is my COMSOL solution not converging? - Physics Forums

    Aug 12, 2009 · Hello, I'm a 2nd year student, and I'm trying to get to know COMSOL. I'm starting off by solving simple problems with the incompressible Navier-Stokes model, but I keep having trouble with …

  4. Is it possible to have a Mach number greater than 1 at the throat?

    Mar 5, 2012 · The discussion centers on whether a Mach number greater than 1 can occur at the throat of a converging-diverging nozzle. Initially, it is asserted that the Mach number at the throat must …

  5. Calculating the Final Image Location in a Compound Lens System

    Nov 8, 2008 · The discussion revolves around calculating the final image location in a compound lens system consisting of two converging lenses. The first lens, with a focal length of +10 cm, is …

  6. Graphically determining the focal length of a converging lens

    Nov 5, 2023 · So I have plotted all the given data points on a graph, putting 1/di on the y- axis and 1/do on the x-axis. I have to now find focal length from the graph...

  7. Identifying Converging and Diverging Lenses: Explaining with Principal ...

    Feb 1, 2005 · To determine whether a lens is converging or diverging, analyze the behavior of the principal rays after they pass through the lens. A convex lens will cause rays to converge at a point …

  8. Ramanujan's approximation for $\pi$ - Mathematics Stack Exchange

    In 1910, Srinivasa Ramanujan found several rapidly converging infinite series of $\\pi$, such as $$ \\frac{1}{\\pi} = \\frac{2\\sqrt{2}}{9801} \\sum^\\infty_{k=0 ...

  9. Why is the image distance negative in a Two Thin Lens setup?

    Nov 6, 2011 · 1. Two 25.0 cm focal length converging lenses are placed 16.5 cm apart. An object is placed 35.0 cm in front of one lens. Where will the final image formed by the second lens be located? …

  10. real analysis - Give a concrete sequence of rationals which converges ...

    Nov 15, 2014 · Why cheating? It is a concrete way of producing a sequence of rationals that converges to any irrational number of your choice.
