Let $f(x)=\begin{cases}\max\{|x|,x^2\},&|x|\le2\\8-2|x|,&2<|x|\le4\end{cases}$. Let $S$ be the set of points in $(-4,4)$ where $f$ is not differentiable. Find $S$.
On $[-2,2]$: $\max(|x|,x^2)=x^2$ when $x^2\ge|x|$, i.e., $|x|\ge1$; equals $|x|$ when $|x|\le1$.
So $f(x)=|x|$ for $|x|\le1$ and $f(x)=x^2$ for $1\le|x|\le2$.
Check non-differentiability: At $x=0$: $|x|$ is not differentiable. At $x=\pm1$: left-hand $f'=\pm1$, right-hand $f'=2x=\pm2$ — not equal, so not differentiable. At $x=\pm2$: $f(2^-)=4$, $f(2^+)=4$; $f'(2^-)=4$, $f'(2^+)=-2$ — not differentiable.
So $S=\{-2,-1,0,1,2\}$.
The dimensional formula of magnetic field $B$ is:
From Lorentz force: $F = qvB$
$[B] = \dfrac{[F]}{[q][v]} = \dfrac{MLT^{-2}}{AT \cdot LT^{-1}} = \dfrac{MLT^{-2}}{AL} = MT^{-2}A^{-1} = M^1L^0T^{-2}A^{-1}$
