She has a Master of Science in neuroscience from University of Copenhagen and a Ph.D. in philosophy from State University of New York at Buffalo. Drugs that interfere with the formation of new neural networks in the brain's main memory center can cause short-term memory loss. Short-term memory is the ability to store sensory information for relatively short times, ranging from a few minutes to a few days.
The vertical bar is used as a mathematical symbol in. 1  absolute value : , read the absolute value of x . 2  norms : , read the norm of x one, x two ; though Unicode also provides a special double vertical line symbol U+2016: âxâ. 3  Parallelism in geometry, where indicates that the line is parallel to the line.
Using Cross-Product and Vectors to find the distance between parallel lines ? Sep 11, 2011 #1. Given the following two lines, prove that they are parallel, then find the distance between them... (I have circled in red the two parts of the answer which I don't understand. Namely, why are they using the cross-product here, doesn't that give you a value perpendicular to the lines, hence a new vector that is on the parallel planes of the lines? The second part I highlighted I have no idea why they chose this.)
