Conservation of Energy In the early part of 19th century the scientist developed the concept of energy and hypothesis that it can be neither created nor destroyed ; this come to be known as the law of the conservation of energy. The first law of thermodynamics is merely one statement of this…
Intersection of sets Let A and B be two sets. The intersection of A and B is the set of all those elements that belongs to both A and B. See in Fig(v) shaded region show A∩B We denote A intersection B by notation “A ∩ B” Thus A∩B = { x : x ∈…
Semi-Open or Semi-Closed interval If a and b are two real numbers such that a < b, then the sets (a, b] = { x : x ∈ R, a < x ≤ b} and [a, b)={ x : x ∈ R, a ≤ x < b are known as semi-open or semi-closed intervals ….
Venn diagrams The diagram drawn to represent sets are called Venn-diagram. In Venn-diagram the universal set U is represented by points within the rectangle and its subsets are represented points in closed curves (usually circles) within the rectangle. If a set A is a subset of a set B, then the circles representing A is…
SI (System of international) system of units The SI system consists of seven basic units and two supplementary units. These are represented in table 1 . The unit for other quantities are derived from the basic units which are given in table 2. It is convenient to use prefix to avoid the use of very…
Subsets of the set R of real numbers Following sets are important subsets of the set R of all real numbers: (i) The set of all natural numbers N = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6,…. } (u) The set of all integers Z = { … – 3, – 2, -1,…
