Imagine a bat hitting a baseball head on. The ball-to-bat force pair created upon impact is unbalanced; thus, after impact, the ball will sail outward in the opposite direction. What if, however, the bat-to-ball collision occurred at an angle? How would the magnitude of force imparted to the ball change? Answers to these types ofContinue reading “AP PHYSICS: The Unit Circle and Basic Trigonometric Functions”

THE STOCK MARKET: Call Options
THE MATHEMATICS OF OPTIONS TRADING : Let’s first consider a scenario where a single share of stock valued at $100.00 is purchased and subsequently sold at some later date. If this single share of stock increases in value by $6.00, a 6% profit will have been made if the stock is sold for $106.00, neglectingContinue reading “THE STOCK MARKET: Call Options”
MATHEMATICS: Radius, Radians, Diameter, Circumference, and ” Pi ” = 3.14
C = 2πR. What does this mean? What is its usefulness? C = The distance around any circle. But where did such a formula come from? Start by drawing a circle. Within the middle of the circle, draw a dot. Now, draw a line that passes through the dot. This line should divide the circleContinue reading “MATHEMATICS: Radius, Radians, Diameter, Circumference, and ” Pi ” = 3.14″
