I was explaining to my wife how the #velocity #components of an idealized #projectile differ. She was having some problems understanding that only the #vertical component changes and that the #horizontal component remains constant. In the end, I knocked up this little animation to tr and explain pictorially (the program in #WxMaxima is actually interactive. so you can stop it, step through it or run it backwards if that helps).

It's straightforward to calculate the #components of a #2D #vector given that you have a pre-defined set of #axes. Often, we talk about #cartesian #coordinates. If the vector changes, whether in #magnitude or #direction, we can calculate the updated components too. The converse question is what if the the vector is held constant and you change or #rotate the axes? The components in the new coordinate system can be found with a little bit of #trigonometry and #algebra. As vectors are #first-order #tensors, they are much simpler to calculate than quantities like stress for which I've also made an animation for if you search for the hashtag #tensors.

In this animation, you can see the components changing as the axes go through a full rotation.

Trump steel tariffs remain in effect indefinitely


Former President Donald Trump issued an order in March 2018 to impose a 25% global tariff on imported steel and 10% on aluminum, and after almost four years, there is no end in sight for these import taxes. The Section 232 order aimed to increase domestic steel production and address excess steel capacity that has…

These are the best power supply units you can buy for your PC in 2021 - An essential component for a stable system

The Power Supply Unit (PSU) is a critical piece of any desktop. It plays an extremely important role in supplying power to your entire system. Yet, power supplies are often overlooked and aren’t discussed as frequently as some of the other star components like the processor or the graphics card. The power supply unit also determines your system’s reliability and save the parts in case something goes wrong. It’s safe to say if you’re not buying the best power supply, then you’re essentially putting your expensive PC parts at risk.

Yes, many bargain shop-sold computers come with woefully underpowered and cheaper PSUs as it's a component that most buyers don't look at. Better PSUs allow more devices to be added to your computer, frequently run more efficiently when less power is needed, and improve stability.
