alignment problem

Post by ghostanime2001 »

How do I transfer the set of equations below the second figure to just below the two top equation blocks and directly adjacent to the figure for the second question?

Code: Select all

\documentclass[fleqn]{article}
\usepackage{fullpage}
\usepackage[left=1in,right=1in,top=1in,bottom=1in]{geometry}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{floatflt}
\usepackage[makeroom]{cancel}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{xfrac}
\usepackage{siunitx}
\sisetup{%
  output-decimal-marker={.},
  load-configurations=abbreviations,
  group-separator={,},
  per-mode=fraction,
  fraction-function=\sfrac}
\usepackage{fix-cm}
\pagestyle{empty}
\begin{document}
\begin{enumerate}
\item
\begin{minipage}[t]{2in}
$\begin{aligned}[t]
\Delta t&=\text{9.09 \cancel{hr}}\left(\dfrac{\text{60 \cancel{min}}}{\text{1 \cancel{hr}}}\right)\left(\dfrac{\text{60 s}}{\text{1 \cancel{min}}}\right)=\text{32,724 s} \\
\omega &=\text{?} \\
\omega &=\dfrac{\theta}{\Delta t}=\dfrac{\text{1.34 rad}}{\text{32,724 s}}=\text{\num{4.09e-5} rad/s}
\end{aligned}$
\end{minipage}
\item
\raisebox{1.85ex}{\parbox[t]{2in}{\null\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{Diagram2}}}
\begin{minipage}[t]{4cm}
$\begin{aligned}[t]
d&=\text{328 m} \\
r&=6.18 \\
T&=\text{24 \cancel{h}}\left(\dfrac{\text{60 \cancel{min}}}{\text{1 \cancel{h}}}\right)
\end{aligned}$
\end{minipage}
$\begin{aligned}[t]
v_{1}&=\dfrac{2\pi r}{T} & v_{2}&=\dfrac{2\pi(r+d)}{T} \\
Tv_{1}&=2\pi r & Tv_{2}&=2\pi(r+d) \\
\dfrac{Tv_{1}}{2\pi}&=r & \dfrac{Tv_{2}}{2\pi}-d&=r \\
\end{aligned}$ 
\begin{align*}
\cfrac{Tv_{1}}{2\pi}&=\cfrac{Tv_{2}}{2\pi}-d \\
d&=\cfrac{Tv_{2}}{2\pi}-\cfrac{Tv_{1}}{2\pi} \\
d&=\cfrac{T}{2\pi}\left(v_{2}-v_{1}\right) \\
\dfrac{2\pi d}{T}&=\Delta v \\
\dfrac{2\pi(328)}{86,400}&=\Delta v
\end{align*}
\end{enumerate}
\end{document}

Alignment is hardly possible if you mix different environments, such as enumerate, minipage and aligned.

However, if you don't use enumerate and minipage, you can get numbering by using numbers of the math environments. Flushed left numbering and tag appearance could be customized. You could use a big align environment, for example. With \intertext (or \shortintertext from the mathtools package) you can even leave the environment for inserting text and resume.

Is there a way to use vertical space then?

Yes, of course, there is, using \vspace any other vertical spacing command, or a vertical space option to \\, depending on what is desired.

Yes, that way the output can be made very similar or even better.
