I have been studying Inner Product spaces for the past week and seem unable to grasp the concept. For instance, here is a sample problem from my textbook. I have the answer in the back, but I just can't seem to reach the same answer.

= {f(x)g(x)dx, C=[-1,1], f(x)=x, g(x)=e^x

||f|| = ???

I keep coming up with sqrt(2/3), while the answer key states (sqrt(6))/3.

Please show me how they got their answer.

I heard once that if earth was 50 miles closer to the sun in it's orbit, we'd all burn up, and if it was 50 miles farther, we'd all freeze to death. Is this true, and can you provide any sources for/against it?

You’re playing a card game entitled “Find the King”. 5 cards are on the table face down, 4 of them are Queen, and of course 1 King. You select card number 1, the dealer then flips 3 cards over and they are all Queens (card numbers 3,4,5). So you are now left with cards (1 and 2), He then says to you: ‘Do you want to switch to card number 2?’ Is it to your advantage to take the switch? And what is the probability card number 2 is the King?

A student made these inferences about wave motion.
1. Waves are created by vibratory motion.
2. Waves transmit energy away from a source.
3. Waves transmit particles away from a source.

Which inferences actually describe characteristics of wave motion?

I was told , while driving through the back roads of New hampshire one night the reason there are so many car and moose accidents at night is because , unlike deer and other animals their eyes do not glow when headlights from cars shine on them. As a result there are hundreds of accidents on the roads every year at night when moose are more active. And even though they are quite large, their black eyes and dark hair make it almost imposible to see them at night on those very dark roads in New England.
