What is the difference between angular velocity and angular frequency and in what reference is it used in SHM?
In the simple harmonic oscillator model, we talk about the angular frequency and I understand that this tells something about the instantaneous angular velocity of the object. For example, a simple pendulum. But what does this mean when we apply this concept to an object attached to a spring that behaves as a simple harmonic oscillator? There is no instantaneous circular motion for the object, so how can we relate the angular frequency to a system like this?
What is the formula for percent of frame filled at a specific distance and focal length? I am thinking about buying a new lens specifically to take photos of distant targets (birds, bears, etc). I currently own the Canon 70-300 IS USM, which is a nice lens, but I find that if I want to take a photo of anything further away than about 10 meters, the target does not fill a large amount of the frame (meaning I have to significantly crop in post production).  I am currently looking at the Canon prime 400mm, however I would like to determine at what distance an object will fill a reasonable proportion of the frame.  Is there a formula or rule of thumb I can apply that will help me in this situation? I realise the size of the target I am shooting will play a role here, so if we need to make an assumption about the size of the target please let me know.

Order of calling base class constructor from derived class initialization list Travel grant for undergraduate researcher for attending conference I am an undergraduate student doing independent research. My research work is selected for presentation at a very reputed conference in the US. I am from India. I cannot afford to attend the conference at all. How should I fund my trip? The travel grant for students available from the conference is very low. It can hardly buy me a one way ticket. What are my options? Writing ISO 19139 compliant XML metadata from spreadsheet? I am looking at a way to migrate the metadata from a spreadsheet into ISO 19139 compliant XML metadata documents for a collection of shapefiles. I can parse the data out of the spreadsheet into strings without issue however I am getting lost on how to take those strings and use them to populate the elements.   This example:  covers most of what I want to do, however I would need to generate the tree beforehand based on the ISO 19139 schema. PyXB seems to have schema bundles for OpenGIS but I would like some insight on how to connect everything. I'd like to get an advanced frame in Firefall. I've been told that I can use "Pilot Tokens" to unlock other frames without having to pay money.  How soon would I be able to unlock an advanced frame? Do I have to level a base frame all the way to level 40? More than once? Why is human vision restricted to 400-700 nm? Across the electromagnetic spectrum, 400-700 nm is a narrow spectrum of frequencies and focused in the region of short wavelengths. For example, radio waves cover a large range of frequencies unexploited by the visual system. So what biological reason is there that evolved us to use such a small frequency bandwidth for vision? I have heard from people who have switched either way and who swear by the one or the other.  Being a huge Eclipse fan but having not had the time to try out IntelliJ, I am interested in hearing from IntelliJ users who are "ex-Eclipsians" some specific things that you can do with IntelliJ that you can not do with Eclipse.

As a new user, I find it impossible to contribute to the community or to even begin contributing. I know why the reputation system is in place and I respect it, but at the same time it is too hard on new users.  It started with me wanting to upvote a question...     "Vote Up requires 15 reputation"   Just to appreciate a good question that helped me I need 15 rep? OK..., so I find out how I can get reputation points. More or less, I need to ask a question for +5 and add an answer for +10. I don't have any questions at the moment and I don't want to spam a random question, but I did happen to have a slightly different answer to the earlier question that I wanted to upvote. So I try to answer...     This question is protected to prevent "thanks!", "me too!", or spam answers by new users. To answer it, you must have earned at least 10 reputation on this site.   Now... I know this doesn't apply to every question, but at the same time, this means I'm forced to answer yet another question, and I don't want to go around looking for random questions and spam irrelevant answers...  Now I'm stuck. So I try to talk to some other users in the chat rooms about how to go about getting reputation points and how they first started. I entered into a "casual chat room".     You must have 20 reputation on Meta Stack Overflow to talk here.   Yes... I can understand why this is enforced, because we don't want new users to spam chat rooms, but all I wanted to do was ask for help. So I can't even talk to anyone about my newbie problems. So okay, I'll just settle for upvoting comments in the question that helped me. I don't see an upvote hover-over button so I can't even do that.    So now I'm stuck at 1 reputation point, unable to cross that 15 rep barrier, and even after posting this question I'll only have 6 rep points and still unable to do anything, and I'll be forced to look for questions to answer. Yes, I should be contributing to the community, but I shouldn't need to begin answering or making questions to upvote questions and answers. This only spurs more spam/irrelevant answers if anything.   Very, very, very new-user unfriendly. What is the monomorphism restriction? I am curious about the proof of these two integrations. It would be great if you could point me in the right direction : $ \int{e^{ax}\cos({bx})dx}= \dfrac{e^{ax}}{a^{2}+b^{2}}[a\cos(bx)+b\sin(bx)] + C $ &amp; $ \int{e^{ax}\sin({bx})dx}= \dfrac{e^{ax}}{a^{2}+b^{2}}[a\sin(bx)-b\cos(bx)] + C $ 70s or 80s Book. Post Catastrophe, Sheriff tries to hold town together, and keep his schizo wife from killing him Can I see images and watch movies inside the terminal emulator Today I've suddenly received spam calendar invitation for $19.99 Ray Ban sunglasses (never subscribed, checked, searched or visited any related site, so clearly spam) and it has other visible email accounts within the invitation. I'm wondering if I should be worried whether my accounts been compromised or a simple email from anywhere just plops this in my calendar without review. Questions to be answered:  What should I check/setup in order to make sure my iCloud account is safe? How can I delete this invitation without sending a notification to the sender, so as to prevent them from knowing my email address is live? How can I prevent these notifications in the future?  Here's an image: Why is polyploidy lethal for some organisms while for others is not? is the multiplication of number of chromosomal sets from 2n to 3n (triploidy), 4n (tetraploidy) and so on. It is quite common in plants, for example many crops like wheat or Brassica forms. It seems to be rarer in animals but still it is present among some amphibian species like Xenopus.  As I know in mammals polyploidy is lethal (I don't mean tissue - limited polyploidy). I understand that triploidy is harmful due to stronger influence of maternal or paternal epigenetic traits that cause abnormal development of placenta, but why there is no tetraploid mammals? Does a percentage quantity take singular or plural verb agreement? Does a percentage require a singular or plural verb, for example, do we say ten percent "go" or "goes"? Converting string arrays into Map How to install the latest Arduino IDE? I remember reading ages ago that it's a good idea to choose either www.example.com or domainexamplecom as your main URL and then set the other one as a 301 redirect to point to your domain? The reason provided was:  Some people may link to www.example.com Other links may point to example.com  In order to not lose 'SEO link juice', the individual recommended setting up a 301 redirect from one to the other. Has this changed? Is it true? I would have guessed that Google (and other search engines) would be smart enough to whack some code in their algorithm to understand that in most cases www.example.com = example.com?
