What would the differential be called for $A = \pi r^2$?? $$ \frac{dA}{dr} $$ $$A = \pi r^2 \ \frac{dA}{dr}$$ How would you describe the differential?? The rate of change of area with respect to radius. Can you differentiate $V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$?? $$ \frac{dV}{dr} = 4\pi r^2 $$ $$V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 \ \frac{dV}{dr} = 4\pi r^2$$ How could you explain “the rate of change of volume with respect to radius”?? How much additional volume you gain for a small change in the radius.

See Also [[Further Maths - Series]]S Flashcards What is the requirement of a series for the method of differences to be applicable?? The general term, $u_r$ of a series can be expressed in the form $f(r) - f(r+1)$. If the general term of a series $u_r$ can be expressed as $f(r) - f(r + 1)$, how could you write the series?? $$ \sum^n_{r = 1} (f(r) - f(r + 1)) $$

What is Ohm’s Law?? The current through an ohmic conductor is proportional to the potential difference across it when at a constant temperature. What is the symbol formula for resistance?? $$ R = \frac{V}{I} $$ What is the word formula for resistance?? $$ \text{resistance} = \frac{potential difference}{current} $$ What is the formula for potential difference $V$ in terms of resistance $R$ and current $I$?? $$ V = IR $$ What is the formula for current $I$ in terms of resistance $R$ and potential difference $V$?

Is Reverse Polish Notation prefix, infix or postfix?? Postfix. What’s another name for Reverse Polish Notation?? Postfix notation. What is Reverse Polish Notation?? A notation for maths where the operator comes after the operands. Why is Reverse Polish Notation used?? Because it means evaluation can be done using a stack. What does RPN eliminate the need for?? Brackets. $$8 \times 7 + 6 \div 3 ^ 2$$ What does this look like with brackets showing the order of operations?
