Ideas for new future projects: 1) solar panel, connect to Arduino current and voltage meters, so you will be able to calculate power. Digitalize readings and send to computer database with date and time (through wifi?). Computer application will draw graph power versus time per day, couple days/weeks/months/years, so you will be able to compare them what power you can get in different seasons. Calculate total energy produced by installation. Host it somewhere, so you will be able to check any data at any time from smartphone from web browser. 2) extension to the above, add vertical and horizontal servos to be able to rotate in two axes entire solar panel. It'll be periodically adjusted by computer to find the best possible alignment to have the largest power. Compare results with fixed alignment.

Indeed, in the past we had plentiful more, much more science advanced members, with quite nice scientific speculations.. Kramer for example.

Session time out, is different thing than cookie expiration date.. The session record is stored on the server, and the cookie is stored in the client's web browser. Server (used to run forum) after user logging in the first time, is typically storing logging date and time in session database record. Then when user is active (visiting pages), session record is updated to new time. When user is not active for enough long time, session database record is removed from session database, and user is automatically logged off. If it would not be done this way, you could not have list of currently active users on the right-bottom panel. Plentiful people simply don't press "log off", just close browser (or power off computer on purpose or accidentally). And server would not have idea that user is no longer active.

In classic physics force is change of momentum in period of time. [math]F=\frac{dp}{dt}[/math]

From 1370 W/m^2 to Earth surface arrive 1050 W/m^2. It's 0.1050 W/cm^2 while watching Sun directly at noon. After adding single polarization filter it's 50% 0.0525 W/cm^2 straight away. After adding second polarization filter and rotate it 90 degrees, you adjust from 0 W/cm^2 to 0.0525 W/cm^2.. With glasses you have absolute no control over it. Even worse, you can't even calculate how much W/cm^2 you will get.

"proper education" is interpreted differently by nationalist-type of person, than liberal-type of person. Nationalists-patriots will learn people history of nation different way, different things, slightly or highly adjusted to their vision of world.. "Probably the best we can do is to raise children"... without any mention about human history... without mention about past wars, past conflicts, past mass murders of other nations... At least until they are enough intelligent at age >40 y old, when they're quantum physicists, IT, chemists, etc. etc. experts.. At the moment, nationalists, are learning young children about past disasters of their nations (in countries which have disasters in the past). This way they learn to hate people, learn to hate their neighborhood now, after many generations from the event. Resurrection of hatred, instead of forgiveness and peace.

Christians believe in Jesus Christ. If they decline NT, and believe in OT exclusively, they can't be Christians, rather orthodox Jews. YEC, have idea that Earth has been created ~ 6000 years ago, from work of Christian archbishop James Ussher. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Ussher Which is complete rubbish.. 5730 years is half-life of radioisotope of Carbon C-14.

Take two polarization filters, overlap them together, and rotate one to adjust amount of light which is passing through them.

Seeking for knowledge, is seeking for truth.. Objective knowledge. It needs to be verified by student during studying subject, not just read 3rd party books about the subject.

Really? I can't see any science in your post.. In Relativity section of this forum we discuss Special Relativity and General Relativity. If you really want to discuss science, in context of your post, that sounds like some kind of quantization, I would recommend reading wikipedia pages about quantization https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantization_(physics) And about quantum numbers: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_number

Somebody should say to him at that moment that birds and insects are heavier than air, and still fly..

Classical understanding of gravity is that it's attractive force between two massive objects. So, in anti-gravity, they should repel each other.

Right now almost the all radio stations here are transmitting digital signal, not analog anymore. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_radio Also, your audio experience is pretty subjective. To really compare signal, you would have to digitalize it and record as raw file on disk, and then compare couple files together. I am pretty sure data would be slightly different in many places (transmission errors, slightly different decompression algorithms). Digital single sample has 65536 ^ 2 = 4294967296 possible values (left and right channels 16 bit both). Multiply 4 bytes per sample by 44100 Hz (CD quality) = 176400 bytes per second of raw data.

"Solve it"... ? It's your job to solve it.. It's your homework.. We can only give advices...

I would suggest getting 3D application such as f.e. Blender. It's free. Then make box (it's be water, make diffuse color blue), and long thin cylinder (it's be straw, make diffuse color green). Place camera in such way to see them both. Enable real-time previewing. And start adjusting transparency, and then refractive index parameters, to see what they have effect. Add to it procedural texture displacement of water object, to simulate waves, ripples on the surface of water. Even in 3D application, simulating reality, it'll bend.

Electrons decelerate, lose part of their kinetic energy, while passing through medium-conductor. If they fly through other medium f.e. gas, they also lose their kinetic energy, it's visible by naked eye in Cloud Chamber particle detector. Electrons accelerated to different velocities, will leave traces with different lengths. The more they were accelerated, the longer trace.

You should specify what you meant by that. Infinite volume of the Universe.. ? Infinite quantity of protons in the Universe.. ? (therefor infinite mass) Infinite lifetime of the Universe.. ? (f.e. never ending expansion) Infinite quantity of versions of the Universe.. ? (Parallel Universes, Multiverses)

Massless means having no rest-mass. Massless particles have kinetic energy, momentum, and relativistic-mass.

If you have rest-mass of electron me = 9.11*10^-31 kg, after multiplying it by c^2, where c=299792458 m/s, It is energy after annihilation. But you need also positron, antimatter antiparticle of electron, with the same rest-mass as electron me. [math]e^- + e^+ \rightarrow \gamma + \gamma[/math] Prior annihilation you have energy (sum of rest-masses of electron and positron, multiplied by c^2, to convert units): [math]E=2 m_e c^2[/math] After annihilation you have energy (sum of gamma photons energies): [math]E=2 h f_c[/math] Giving you final equation [math]2 m_e c^2 = 2 h f_c[/math]

Ammonium is not element, but compound. Maybe you meant Aluminium instead? It would make more sense in context of your question. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonia_solution "In aqueous solution, ammonia deprotonates a small fraction of the water to give ammonium and hydroxide according to the following equilibrium:" NH3 + H2O <-> NH4+ + OH-

You're mistaken. You're mistaken. Obviously they would exist, without any purpose. Jupiter, and other giant gas planets, accidentally played very important role in Solar System formation. They attracted cosmic dust, comets, to them self. If they would not exist, rock planets would be bombarded by asteroids,planetoids,comets,cosmic dust, much more often, and life could never appear. But don't turn it up-side-down. Jupiter just helped development of life on the Earth, but was not designed to do so on purpose.

The Muslim God , Allah "God", who is ordering people praying on the knees (etc.etc.), can't be true one. You don't treat your children this way, do you.. ?

Atmosphere can be (and will be in the future of Solar System) wiped out by high enough radiation from the Sun (or other high energy particles source f.e. Gamma Ray Burst). It's just a matter of time. Particle of atmosphere is here on the Earth just because its velocity relative to Earth is relatively small. High energy particle will give it enough kinetic energy and it'll fly away escaping from the Earth.

If you don't want to lose friend, simply say that he sent two messages to probably wrong contact in his address book (things like this are common these days, if f.e. couple contacts start with the same letter, and somebody type faster than think), with naked women (if you deleted them and cannot show him them anymore), and you think they were addressed to his wife instead of you. He will probably answer something like "OMG, you're right! I sent them by mistake! Excuse me."..
