A book to introduce engineering and physics students to areas of math that seem to be most important in relation to practical problems. Book was first published in 1962 - so it is a bit out of date - and has had several reprints. Erwin Kreyszig (Jan 6, 1922 - December 12, 2008) was Professor of at Ohio State University, later moved to Carleton University in Ottawa). The book covers: Ordinary Differential Equations; Ordinary Linear Differential Equations; Power Series Solutions of Diff. Equations; Laplace Transform; Vector Analysis; Line and Surface Integrals; Systems of Linear Equations; Fourier Series and Integrals; Partial Differential Equations; Complex analytic Functions; Conformal Mapping; Complex Integrals; and so on. A very useful book when I did my engineering, though it must be out of date now. GSC
well, by definition, a math equation is something along the lines of y=x, where either y or x can be anything, including functions or non functions. so really you could just make up anything as an equation, which means there really isn't a math equation that is the longest. for example, i could say y=x^3 +2x^2+4x+2.5x^(1/2)+cuberoot(34x^2)... yadda yadda yadda, and it would be an equation. basically there is an infinite number of terms you could have in an equation.a more suitable question would be to ask,"what is the longest applicable math equation?", which i think you probably meant in the first place. just be weary about how you use the word "equation."as for the longest applicable math equation, look at things like Nordstrand's Weird Surface, or in general, Integral Transforms are quite lengthy. applicable equations don't necessarily have to be very long to be complicated.
Yes calculus is a type of math that deals with the study of continuously changing quantities.
What is escape velocity? How high does the Space Shuttle orbit? How much time until launch? How many flight hours do I have to have to qualify? How cold is it outside the earth's atmosphere? What is a g force? How much thrust should the booster rockets have? What is the earth's diameter? How faraway is Mars?It's all math!Adding on to all of that, astronauts on Apollo 13 had to figure a lot out, like When do you fire the ship's thrusters, and for how long, and in what direction, in order to be able to return to Earth safely? Math is a big part in being an astronaut. When your computer crashes (like on Apollo 13) you need to figure out math problems by hand.
