Just a thought; picture for a moment what you all are suggesting about robots but on a smaller scale. Imagine your house is very highly automated and...
If a mass has a velocity in a certain direction and you apply a force perpendicular to the direction of motion then the mass will stay at constant...
The motion of the magnets in this instance will never be a smooth motion. This is the origin of the conceptual "paradox". You cannot continuously...
Good question. I was actually just about to delete my post. I just found what I did. It should be %f and not %d for type float, when it is stated in...
I'm starting to use an integrated development environment for C/C++ ("Dev C++"), but am having trouble with simple variable types. (namely 'float'...
