Maxima and minima without calculus
American Journal of Physics, 1984Many physical systems are described by quadratic equations. In such cases the requirement for a real solution is that the discriminant be non-negative. This requirement can often lead, directly or indirectly, to maximizing or minimizing some system variable of interest. Three examples suitable for a noncalculus physics course are given : (1) projectile
