  1. yes. it probably made a lot of Fe(II)Cl2
  2. try google. it helped me with more than one 4000 word essay. conducting walls e.g. lead or has lots of wires in it tend to reflect a signal andlet very little through. shorter wavelegnths diffract very little so i suppose that has something do do with the lack of interference. thicker the wall the less signal will get through i assume also the shape. there is actually a lot you could write.
  3. it could bewhat they expect laptops to be like when we do have mass marketed quantum computing. i think the current most powerful quantum cpu consists of 12000 carbon atoms and is like 133MHz
  4. you can "travel" in time but only forward. if you go fast, like 0.9999999999c and go to the nearest star and back (assuming instantaneous acceleration) just over eight years would pass on earth while it would be a few hours/days or so for you. you can't go back and thats the problem.
  5. the land around the nile is quite fertile trees could be grown there for wood.
  6. 1. the electrons still move along the wire i.e. there is still a current. but they have little to no energy available to do work. 2. a voltmeter is practically an open circut so its effect on the voltage across the bulb is negligble. i'm not actually quite sure how a voltmeter works.
  7. i asked what a phton was not light. photons have been proven to exist. so what do make of that?
  8. by many, many derivations and hardwork
  9. whats a photon then if not a particle.
  10. i meant c but i used speed of light. i really gotta stop doing that. i know about cerenekov radiation.
  11. nope not scary at all.
  12. no gemini no we wouldn't. light always goes at c relative to the observer no matterhow fast you go.
  13. the atomic nucleus is unstable to begin with and absorbing an x-ray would push it "over the edge" and the protons and neutron would rearange to a lower energy state releasing energy. I think thats how it works anyway.
  14. i think he meant "in" space
  15. no the whole point of relativity is that the speed of light is a constant.(that means it cannot be changed under anycircumstances
  16. right since the gravitons(just using these hypothetically here like the mr gravity's, what a brilliant idea that is) that continue to attract the earth after the sun has dissapeared were emitted before the sun disapeared they have to conserve the momentum they applied to the sun as they left. so they can still attract the earth. the only thing wrong with this is that the sun somehow winks out of existence.
  17. right, where to begin.... SHORTER wavelegnths are destructive, longer wavelegnths less so. Yes it did. The ozone layer is formed when oxygen in the upper atmosphere is hit by ultraviolet light from the sun. this happens all the time. the ozone only requires oxygen and ultraviolet light to exist.(i won't go into the details of how it is formed but it is nothing to do with life). no this is evolution as it occurs over generations. adaptationis done to a single organism within its lifetime and rarely alters the genetic code. bacteria cannot turn into fish directly no matter how cool it would be if they could. The genetic code for the finches beak is different, therefore evolution. they are not born with a generic beak that will adapt into whatever beak is best for the job. yes they are called squirrels but they are different species of squirrels. would you call a pitbull dog and a poodle the same because they are both dogs? or you get the lungfish which was the intermediate between ocean life and land life. also probably one of our ancestors. they are actually still around why don't you go google it or look on wikipedia. no things do change piece by piece. well its more like a piece of a piece but it does happen. its not like changing a cog with a cpu its gradually changing something. funny, all i see is support from the fossil record. can you give me your source for this? not everything that dies will become a fossil otherwise we would be up to our armpits in fossils. fish are in the ideal place to be fossilized(its the bones that fossilize not the entire fish) as when they die and sink to the bottom sediment quickly covers them (a few hours i think). but yes the fossilization process is very slow. Then how come i have seen with my own eyes peppered moths almost completely covering a tree trunk.(this was actually scary for me, i have a phobia of moths for some reason) What in the name of all that is hairy has evolution got to do with the big bang?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! evolution is about life and how it evolves to its surroundings(by the way i suggest you look up a definition of adaptation and evolution), the big bang is about the formation of the universe. where is the conflict they aren't exactly intimately related are they. 1. why do i believe in evoultion? it has been observed happening, it explains alot of things about our species past, and its better than the alternatives. if a better theory comes along that explains why evolution fits as well as it does then i will believe in that. 2. what evidence do i have? fossil records, observations. 3.why do you think creationism is not science? i have answered this. it is based on belief nad has never been published scientifically. 4.The evidence is that it is comes from a 2000yearold book that contradicts itself, is blatantly wrong in a lot of areas and is generally a piece of much edited/molested religious propaganda. i don't care what some people believe. i believe in alot of things that are probably impossible but i like to believe in them anyway. i don't bring them up when i am discussing a scientific issue as they are irrelevant when science is about looking at evidence and drawing up conclusions. i am currently about to start a master degree, i believe in reincarnation and that some people are genuinely psychic, i don't try to enforce it on anybody else because i would appear to be a psychotic nutcase.
  18. *raises hand* i think banningis almost essential here
  19. yeah i know not to download it. what was posted was for another forum altogether.
  20. sorry delete this please i din't mean to reply here but my browser decided o have a moodswing
  21. i have a completely free tracking motor. its called my hand. I take it your doing more than your standard looking at the stars and planets for pleasure then.
  22. dunno but its the most addictive over the counter drug ever! who needs herion and coke and hash and ecstast and acid whn you've got nyquil. P.S. antip, your avatar freaks me out.
  23. keygens(programs that can give you a valid key) are numerous and free on the internet.
  24. maybe you could pay half of it? i got a nice cheap(well cheaper than the one you want) £500 telescope that you can make out saturns rings quite well (see the main rings as seperate rings). if you put a digital camera on the end you can even get slightly more definition.
  25. for the virus, read "the stand" by stephen king. or at least the part before it gets to the good v. evil.
