Alright, and finally how can you find a ratio from that and use 0.99 ( for 99%)? Yes, it's for homework. I appreciate your help too.

Thanks, could you explain what you mean by F ~ 1/r^2 ? K

Hey there, Quick question, any ideas on how to solve would be greatly appreciated. Q: At a distance 'H' above the surface of a planet, the true weight of a remote probe is one percent less than its true weight on the surface. Find the ratio H/R. Thanks all. Kev

Yeah, but its tough because you dont really have much in the way of numbers to manipulate...I just need some help on how to get somewhere with it.. lol, Thanks. K

Hi there, I was looking for any insight into the following problem: Q: Jane wishes to quickly scale a slender vine to visit Tarzan in his treetop hut. The vine is known to safely support the combined mass of Tarzan, Jane and Cheeta. Tarzan has twice the mass of Jane, who is twice the mass of Cheeta. If the vine is 60.0m long, what minimum time should Jane allow for the climb? Any help would be greatly appreciated, K

(a, b E R) just means that a and b are elements of the real numbers..

Given two numbers a and b (a, b E R), use indirect proof to prove that a^2 +b^2 is greater and equal to 2ab. Any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Kev
