    Is this an appropriate thank you note for a college teacher?

    The teacher is actually a graduate student and not a "real" teacher; I don't even know if they actually care about how we do ... but if they don't they're doing an awfully good job at acting like they do care and I feel like I should thank them. So: Name, Thank you for your generous help...

    the elevation at which a baseball game is played affects the distance a ball

    travels when hit.? For every increase of 1000 feet in elevation, the ball travels about 7 feet farther. Suppose a baseball travels 400 feet when hit in a ball park at sea level. Write an equation that gives the distance (in feet) the baseball travels as a function of the elevation of the ball...

    Should I take Calculus III and Physics I in the same quarter?

    I'm taking Calc II and Chem I right now and am average to slightly below average in terms of my grades. I am a freshman in college and I think I just needed to get use to the college course load as my grades are continuing to rise after a rocky start. Thanks.

    The region bounded by the curves y = e ^(-1/x), y=0, x=1, and x=5 is rotated by

    the x-axis. Use Simpson's Rul? The region bounded by the curves y = e ^(-1/x), y=0, x=1, and x=5 is rotated by the x-axis. Use Simpson's Rule with n=8 to estimate the volume of the resulting solid. Thanks.

    Physics Question ... Work and Energy?

    A 305 kg piano slides 4.0 m down a 30° incline and is kept from accelerating by a man who is pushing back on it parallel to the incline. The effective coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.40. force exerted by the man = 459 N work done by the man on the piano = -1836 J work done by the friction...
