So in your "Functions and Graphs that are critically important" blog post, you said :
"1) a growing exponential that usually starts at zero, and grows, first at a high rate and then more slowly, to an asymptotic limiting value. 2) a decreasing exponential that begins at a finite value––not zero––and decreases exponentially to zero (or, in some cases, to a finite limiting value which is not zero).
These graphs are associated with the functions exp(-t/tau) and (1-exp(-t/tau)), respectively."
but isn't that the opposite? I thought the growing exponential that starts at zero and grows corresponded to (1-e^-t/tau) and the decreasing exponential corresponded to (e^-t/tau).
Can you post the review notes online? I had a conflicting review and presume other students may have as well.
ReplyDeleteThank you!
I was able to go to the review but I also was wondering if you could post the notes?
ReplyDeleteAre you going to give us a problem with RCL, LC, and RC circuits that are connected to a battery?
ReplyDeleteno, maybe, and yes.
ReplyDeletealso, we like to call RCL LC-R.
(why is that?)

Am I wrong or is your blog post wrong?
How big can our note card be?
ReplyDeleteWill we have more of an essay based final? that would be great
