4.4 Logarithm
Definition
The logarithm of a number to a particular base is the power (or index) to which that base must be raised to obtain the number. The number 8 written in index form as 8 = 23 The equation can be rewritten in logarithm form as log 2 8 = 3
Logarithm laws
The logarithm laws are obtained from the index laws and are:
loga x + loga y = loga xy
- 40 -
loga x loga y = loga (x/y) loga xy = y loga x loga (1/x) = -loga x loga 1 = 0 loga a = 1
a (log a x ) = x
Note: It is not possible to have the logarithm of a negative number. All logarithms must have the same base.
Euler Relationship
The trigonometric functions are related to a complex exponential by the Euler relationship: e jx = cos x + j sin x e jx = cos x j sin x From these relationships the trig functions can be expressed in terms of the complex exponential:
e jx + e jx 2 jx e e jx sin x = 2
cos x =
Hyperbolic Functions
The hyperbolic functions can be defined in terms of exponentials. Hyperbolic sine = sinh x =
e x e x 2 e x + e x 2
Hyperbolic cosine = cosh x =
Hyperbolic tangent = tanh x =
sinh x e x e x = cosh x e x + e x

4.5 Exponents Summary of the Laws of Exponents

Let c, d, r, and s be any real numbers.
c r c s = c r+s
(c d ) r = c r d r
cr c = r , d 0 d d
c r = 1 cr
r
cr = c rs , c 0 s c
( c r ) s = c r s
Basic Combinations Since the raising of a number n to a power p may be defined as multiplying n times itself p times, it follows that
n p1 + p 2 = n p1 n p 2
The rule for raising a power to a power can also be deduced (na)b = nab (ab)n = anbn am/an = am-n
where a not equal to zero
4.6 Complex Numbers

A complex number is a number with a real and an imaginary part, usually expressed in Cartesian form
a + jb where j = -1 and j j = -1
Complex numbers can also be expressed in polar form

Aej where A = a2 +b2 and = tan-1 (b/a)
The polar form can also be expressed in terms of trigonometric functions using the Euler relationship ej = cos + j sin
Euler Relationship The trigonometric functions are related to a complex exponential by the Euler relationship ejx = cos x + j sin x
- 42 -
e-j = cos x - j sin x
From these relationships the trigonometric functions can be expressed in terms of the complex exponential: e jx + e jx 2 jx e e jx sin x = 2 cos x =
This relationship is useful for expressing complex numbers in polar form, as well as many other applications. Polar Form, Complex Numbers The standard form of a complex number is a + jb where j = -1 But this can be shown to be equivalent to the form
Aej where A = a2 +b2 and = tan-1 (b/a)
which is called the polar form of a complex number. The equivalence can be shown by using the Euler relationship for complex exponentials. b b Ae j = a 2 + b 2 (cos tan 1 + j sin tan 1 ) a a
Ae j = a 2 + b 2 (
a a2 + b2
+ j
b a2 + b2
) = a + jb

5.2 Applied Mechanics 5.2.1 Newton's laws of motion

Newton' first law of motion
The inertia of a body is the reluctance of the body to change its state of rest or motion. Mass is a measure of inertia.
Newton's second law of motion mv-mu ; F= t
- 57 -

F=ma
Impulse = force time = change of momentum Ft=mvmu

Newton's third law of motion
When two objects interact, they exert equal and opposite forces on one another. "Third-law pair" of forces act on two different bodies.
Universal Law F = Gmsmp/d2
ms is the mass of the sun. mp is the mass of the planet. The Universal law and the second law must be consistent
