Looks like legit math, but I haven't gotten to Christoffel symbols yet, so I get lost after (B). Doesn't help that I can't read French, but I can pick up most of the loanwords. Not sure what's being derived here.

Laplace transform to polar coordinates. Differential geometry I believe. Pretty hardcore stuff. It's used in engineering science.

Also, it looks like she's saying "this is on the test" so uh... good luck everyone?

Laplace operator in spherical (polar) coordinates.

If I understand it
And I don't
It is some of the math needed to target over earth curvature

Not really, it's a Laplacian, an operator that can be used to describe many things, like the electric field of an electrical charge, or the flow of water or heat. Not needed for targetting, though, as far as I know.

Tbh, I haven’t been in school since I flunked out my first semester of college, but I kinda want to learn this. She could hopefully be a good teacher.

So, what does this math have to do with a WWII seaplane tender?
