composite

(noun)

a function of a function

Examples of composite in the following topics:

  • Inverses of Composite Functions

    • A composite function represents, in one function, the results of an entire chain of dependent functions.
    • In mathematics, function composition is the application of one function to the results of another.
    • In general, the composition of functions will not be commutative.
    • A composite function represents in one function the results of an entire chain of dependent functions.
    • g ∘ f, the composition of f and g.

  • Composition of the Rwandan Population

  • The Law of Definite Composition

    • The law of definite composition states that chemical compounds are composed of a fixed ratio of elements as determined by mass.
    • French chemist Joseph Proust proposed the law of definite composition or proportions based on his experiments conducted between 1798 and 1804 on the elemental composition of water and copper carbonate.
    • The law of definite composition has applications to both molecular compounds with a fixed composition and ionic compounds as they require certain ratios to achieve electrical neutrality.
    • There are some exceptions to the law of definite composition.
    • In addition, the law of definite composition does not account for isotopic mixtures.

  • Percent Composition of Compounds

    • The percent composition (by mass) of a compound can be calculated by dividing the mass of each element by the total mass of the compound.
    • Another convenient way to describe atomic composition is to examine the percent composition of a compound by mass.
    • Butane's percent composition can be calculated as follows:
    • This video shows how to calculate the percent composition of a compound.
    • Translate between a molecular formula of a compound and its percent composition by mass

  • Body Fluid Composition

    • The composition of tissue fluid depends upon the exchanges between the cells in the biological tissue and the blood.
    • The composition of tissue fluid depends upon the exchanges between the cells in the biological tissue and the blood.
    • This means that fluid composition varies between body compartments.
    • Due to the varying locations of transcellular fluid, the composition changes dramatically.
    • Describe the composition of intracellular and extracellular fluid in the body

  • Composition of Functions and Decomposing a Function

    • The resulting function is known as a composite function.
    • The open circle symbol, $∘$, is called the composition operator.
    • It is important to understand the order of operations in evaluating a composite function.
    • Less formally, the composition has to make sense in terms of inputs and outputs.
    • Practice functional composition by applying the rules of one function to the results of another function

  • Compositional Balance

    • Compositional balance refers to the placement of the artistic elements in relation to each other within a work of art.
    • When balanced, a composition appears more stable and visually pleasing.
    • The three most common types of compositional balance are symmetrical, asymmetrical, and radial.
    • Radial balance refers to circular elements in compositions.
    • Categorize the elements of compositional balance in a work of art

  • Free Energy Changes for Nonstandard States

    • If the reaction begins at a composition to the left of point 1 on the diagram, $\Delta G$ will be negative and the composition will move to the right.
    • Similarly, if the reaction begins with a composition to the right of point 1 on the diagram, $\Delta G$ will be positive and the composition will move to the left.
    • If the reaction starts at a composition to the right of point 3 on the diagram, the composition will tend to move to the left.
    • As the reaction proceeds to the right, the composition changes, and $\Delta G$ begins to fall.
    • The composition of the system remains permanently at its equilibrium value.

  • The Chain Rule

    • The chain rule is a formula for computing the derivative of the composition of two or more functions.
    • The chain rule is a formula for computing the derivative of the composition of two or more functions.
    • That is, if $f$ is a function and $g$ is a function, then the chain rule expresses the derivative of the composite function $f \circ g$ in terms of the derivatives of $f$ and $g$.
    • Calculate the derivative of a composition of functions using the chain rule

  • The Chemical Composition of Plants

    • Since plants require nutrients in the form of elements such as carbon and potassium, it is important to understand the chemical composition of plants.
