I am a high school student learning about semiconductors (diodes and transistors). I have been facing a lot of problems to understand the configurations of BJTs and the simplest amplifier circuit. These confusions have risen perhaps due to unclear explanations in my textbook for which I have assu...

Let $G$ be a simple graph with vertex set $V$, such that for any two vertices $u,v\in V$, we have at least $k$ edge-disjoint paths of length $2$ (i.e., formed by $2$ edges) connecting $u$ with $v$. Let $n=|V|$ be the total number of vertices of $G$.
Question: What is the minimum value of $k$, ex...

I have a somewhat simple wood shed built mostly of 2x4. On its own it seems sturdy enough. We had one guy at a time on the roof to put the shingles on and that felt reasonably safe.
