if been charged up to 500kV before. incredibly low current but still a shocking experience. sorry i hang my head in shame at that pun.

it all depends on the photons hitting the leaves. this provides the energy for the reaction to procede. edit: w00t 900th post

not enough to be noticable by humans but it is measurable and its enough to affect fuel consumption. if you factor in the savings from the initial velocity you can get to orbit with roughly 30kg less fuel for the space shuttle. while this seems small it allows you to carry extra payload, more provisions for longer flights, greater flexibility with orbital manouvres, higher orbits etc. its the small things that count in space.

well we know that we were fish at one point. and we share 73% of our DNA with rice its just that fossilization is a rare thing so we don't know what some of the former species were. these are called "missing links"

its obviously a weak force. i mean look how big the arth has to be to keep us on it. and it only takes a bit of charge to counteract gravity.

fingers and toes would be squishy. probably be painful doing any thing that put pressure on the tips of fingers and toes. why don't you rip the nails off of a siblings hands and feet and see. i'm joking of course, do it slowly.

copper acts as a catalyst. the bubbles will be O2 the steam should have condensed back into water by the time it reaches the surface.

there can be local decreases in entropy but a lot of energy has to be put in. to create this energy entropy increases(in the case of photosynthesis in the sun) usually by a good deal more than the decrease and never less.

The closer to the equator you go the better: -already have rotational velocity -slightly lower gravity(due to the earths bulge and the centrifuge effect) -lots of sun to give your astronauts a nice tan. the only political side i can think of is having to put it in your own country.

any filter capable of filtering alcohol out of the blood would also remove all the cells, nutrients, other stuff that makes blood blood. you could get it out chemicaly or just let the kidneys do their thing.

No. the legitimacy meter exploded when it went too far into the negative.

i also thought GR predicted a twist and space time and that gravity probe b was trying to detect it. Yup here we go. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity_Probe_B

does he even knowwhat a perihelion is?

I actually like AOL, i don't know what i'd do for free coasters, frisbees, microwave experiments etc. etc. if they weren't around.

Roflmao!

yeah its real name is hydronium. I'm sure i recall a movie/tv show set in space or something where that was a metal used as armour. what a load of bull excrement that was.

i think that is the overall colour of the components of the universe(hydrogen helium etc.) if they emitted light at the same time. or its the average output of stars.

aren't they the same link?

d'oh can't believe i missed that i was revising that very thing. the test is up a certain creek without a paddle methinks

About IMM or yourself?

nyah my brain is melting. could maybe be just like looking in a mirror with another mirror behind you, except every layer(best word i can think of just now) is different and it fades off into the distance.

sunspot: the emmisions of stars are still hotter than background so we can measure their temperature. also we can detect the absorbtion of starlight as it passes through the gases. matter interacts with light. darkmatter doesn't.

you seemed to be saying that the negative charge of the Cl- was somehow reduced. The electrophilic effect does appear outweigh the nucleophilic effect because the Cl- has an octet in its outer shell which is inherently stable and the hydrogen hasn't got anything. This apparent difference is caused by the increased reactivity of the H+ and decreased reactivity of the Cl- due to the aforementioned electron arrangements. the only thing magnetic addition to the p orbitals has to do with this is that they become full and the chloride ion is more stable than the hydrogen. its all reaction rates.
