Sounds like a mushroom cloud... Here's mine: Always coming never here, In the distance - very near. Sweat and tears are shed to me, Blood and lives are lost for me. I am hope for those who strive, Hope denied, for I never arrive. To some a maiden of love and light, To others a curse of dread and night. What or who am I?

Mmmkay, thanks

Couldn't we just shoot a large amount of electrons into a blackhole until the electron's disgust and repulsion with one another becomes so strong, it overcomes the massive amount of gravity present? Thus allowing the casual observer to fire another electron in there and have it bounce back with whatever info it may contain. The whole thing would just be mildly inconvient though.

Would it be possible (in practice) for [math]\phi[/math] in the equation [math]\phi=\int{B\,dA}[/math] to be anything but a whole number?

What's wrong with infinity density?
-
I've been told it's because it somehow violates the uncertainty principle, but I'm pretty sure that's not a valid reason (as according to uncertainty, the more time we spend on determining the energy, the more accurate it'll be. And we've had a long time, but we still don't know exactly how much infinity is)

But can we just absolutely ignore friction like that?
-
Polly Nomial Not sure if this is old or not. But I do have a question, why was it too late to differentiate? I thought it was never too late to differentiate...

I was going over the standard block-on-ramp-calculate-the-coefficient-of-friction problem. The coefficient turns out to be tan x, where x is the angle involved. I was just wondering, just what happens to friction when it approaches 90 degrees. Certainly, when in real life when I have a block next to a wall, friction isn't infinite, as otherwise the block wouldn't fall. But then again, there must be some friction, as stick services (like velcro) wouldn't work either.

This is from a 6 part physics homework problem, I got part a-e, but part f (likely to be my grade ) is what I'm having some trouble with: A mass m slides down a frictionless incline and sticks to a spring (spring constant k ), initiating simple harmonic motion. f) What is the angular frequency of the SHM? I got [math](k/m)^{1/2}[/math] as the solution (someone please tell me how to get the Latex radical )

Today it seems the center of moral decay and everything liberal and unethical. On the bright side, it is pretty funny (i.e. http://forporn.ytmnd.com/). What future is there for global interconnectivity?

Or is Planck length as small as they get.

Chloroform knocks you out on a chemical level?

That wonderful feeling when you discover something....
Obnoxious replied to jdurg's topic in The Lounge
So...did you run through your town naked shouting out "Eureka!"? -
I foresee a possible solution to this, however, it is neither moral or pratical in the extreme long run if you are a man of a strong conscience. Obviously you love your wife and kids and such, and therefore do not want to part from them, and you similarily don't want to eject this voluptuous (will someone please program in a spellcheck feature!) vixen from your life....So, the immediate solution is to split your lives. Keep in contact with this alt. lady via another E-Mail at another place, while reserving your love and such for your family. However, by doing that, you would essentially be living a double lie, and if you're not mentally trained enough, could all blow up in your face leaving you without family and friend. Do it properly, and you could keep everyone lost in oblivious sunshine, whilst you alone must brace the cold dark lonely truth of your deceit. Your choice (or just tell this voluptuous internet vixen of yourselfs that you can't play with her anymore).

Well, if you can't divide by infinity, can you at least divide by undefined?

Actually, I was thinking of information on a more basic level, like the electron wave-particle duality type. For example, you set up an experiment in which you fire an electron from an electron gun at screen, where point A designates the most likely position the lil bastard will hit (say 50%), point B being second likely (pretend 30%) and finally point C, which is least likely (20%). So, if you shoot an electron at the screen X amount of times, and half those times, the electrons went to A, 30% of those times to B, how does those remaining electrons know they must land in the 20% area? And how fast does information like that travel?
-
What exactly is information? Not the type which is transferred by lightwaves or whatnot, but entanglement type information, where if one proton does something, the other also does it. And since it has no exact mass that reality can grasp, why can't it travel at, or greater than, lightspeed?
-
What's the point...?! Why would this man willfully mal-practice? Just what mental sickness drives someone to kill the people that trusts him.

How exactly does quantum uncertainty affect string mass?
Obnoxious replied to Obnoxious's topic in Quantum Theory
I know that the energies flux at quantum levels before the measuring, but why is it the energies only flux down? Can't it also flux up and thus overload the whole thing by making some uber big string? -
I thought everything had a frequency... Ya know, that good old H bar over momentum dealie.

J33bu5, so it's almost memorization!! I must've been thinking too hard...

Can someone please show me the exact steps to finding the F(x) of: y = {sec x tan x dx

I seriously think we (in America) should bring back this age-old traditional and way of teaching, teens my age have far too little to fear in our lives, and without fear we are far less motivated to do anything constructive with our time. Some of us chose drugs, others video games, and other even science related websites. Parents should be able to hit their children to teach them a lesson.

I wanna be the president that got into office thanks to a family of red necks and hillbillies.
