*chuckles* Now you are being even funnier.

Hope this article can pose some lights on the topic we are discussing about: The Antiproton Decelerator is a very special machine compared to what already exists at CERN and other laboratories around the world. So far, an "antiparticle factory" consisted of a chain of several accelerators, each one performing one of the steps needed to produce antiparticles. The CERN antiproton complex is a very good example of this. At the end of the 70's CERN built an antiproton source called the Antiproton Accumulator (AA). Its task was to produce and accumulate high energy antiprotons to feed into the SPS in order to transform it into a "proton-antiproton collider". As soon as antiprotons became available, physicists realized how much could be learned by using them at low energy, so CERN decided to build a new machine: LEAR, the Low Energy Antiproton Ring. Antiprotons accumulated in the AA were extracted, decelerated in the PS and then injected into LEAR for further deceleration. In 1986 a second ring, the Antiproton Collector (AC), was built around the existing AA in order to improve the antiproton production rate by a factor of 10. The AC is now being transformed into the AD, which will perform all the tasks that the AC, AA, PS and LEAR used to do with antiprotons, i.e. produce, collect, cool, decelerate and eventually extract them to the experiments. There's some images of the machine here: http://livefromcern.web.cern.ch/livefromcern/antimatter/factory/AM-factory01.html

I'll point out the things wrong with this article if you make a thread about it. Quoted by [Tycho?]. Ok, I have made a new thread only for antimatter particles. What is wrong with the article?

Hahaa, I don't know how those scientists at CERN are able to make the antimatter. I assume from this machine (Antiproton Decelerator), they are able to do that. Maybe you can do some research on the machine, and it might tell you why it won't BOOM! like you said in the post above.

I couldn't find any technology forums on here, so I'll just put this joke on here: Ferrari's Driving School Here is your chance to learn how to drive like the pros in the first N.A. Ferrari Driving School. The catch? Ferrari owners only. I laughed at this after I done read it.

Would you say that [math]\frac{dy}{dx}[/math] is [math]\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{x^2}{x} + \frac{-2x}{x} + \frac{-15}{x}[/math]? The derivative of [math]x^2[/math] is [math]2x[/math]. Then, cross the x out of the [math]\frac{-2x}{x}[/math] yields [math]-2[/math]. Then the last one is an infinite series, so it produces a [math]0[/math]. Therefore, [math]2x-2+0[/math]. Am I correct?

That's why humans are susticble to the new strain of bird flu. HN51 virus. Those viruses was able to produce in a different mutation and just screw us.

The concept is valid to mostiquoes, bugs, and such. As those farmers put all those different chemicals on the field to remove the bugs from eating their crops, and those flies can become immunity to the chemicals. Thus, forcing the farmers to make a new different chemicals. Know why the flies became immunity? Because they reproduce at an incredible rate. They born babies everyday, and a small percent of those babies would surivive and continue the cycle. The problem with humans: We don't reproduce that fast enough. It'll get a millions of years to became immunity to AIDS. It's unlikely it will even happen. That's my answer.

The X-33 Space Plane can go up to the speed of Mach 15. Did the American invented the Internet? WRONG. The Web began here (Gevena, Switzerland) as a network of in-house computer sites. It enabled scientists from different departments to share daily findings with one another. [stored from Angels and Demons by Dan Brown].

Would you say that a black hole have antimatter particles? Because I got some interesting information on antimatter. It's pretty shocking.

Ah, thanks Connor and m4rc. Let me restate your explanations: Let [math]f(x)=(x-5)[/math] and [math]g(x)=(x+3)[/math]. [math]h(x)=f(x)+g(x)[/math] [math](x-5)+(x+3)[/math] [math]2x-2[/math] [math]x=1[/math]. So the minimum would be [math](1, -16)[/math]. It's easy to determine if it's a minimum or maximum because you look at the sign of the [math]x^2[/math]. If it's a positive, then you're looking at a minimum, and if it's negative, then you are looking at a maximum. What do you mean that the second derivative of [math]2x-2[/math] is 2?

Do any of you guys watch the mathematic solving cop TV show, "Numb3rs"? A lot of the solving solutions was using all the information such as locations, addresses, numbers, anything to find the bad guys. The mathematican would use fractal mathematics to solve the distriubution of the datas, and find the most confirmed positions. Sorry if I don't make any sense. Also, more importantly, it's a definition of beauty of art. (math is just behind the images).

I know that the devirative of [math]y=x^2[/math] is [math]2x[/math]. I am looking for something more complicate than that. How about [math]y=x^2-2x-15[/math]? The factioned x values are [math](x-5)(x+3)[/math], so the value of x's are 5 and -3. So the minimum of the quadratic equation is [math]-17[/math]. Am I correct? Hmmm.. let me check my graphic calculator. Nope, I'm wrong. The answer is actually -16. Where did I go wrong? Should I be putting the "1" in the quadratic equation or the factioned values? Because the factioned values did work. [math](x-5)(x+3)[/math] is: [math](1-5)(1+3)[/math], therefore [math]-16[/math]. The question here is: What is the devirative for the quadratic equation, and explain to me from that, how to find the actual value.

Anybody please?

I am wondering how do you find the maximum/minimum of a quadratic equation? I did some exploring on the Internet, and I found out that you can find the devriative, and from that, you'll have the x-symmetry, and then you'll get the value of the maximum/minimum. Can anybody give me an example, and tell me how to find the devriative for it? Thanks.

From the given 2 constant speed from the question, you can use the graphic calculator to find the intersection point. Be careful: One of the equations should be y= nx + 1, where n is the value of the constant, and 1 is the passing second when the police accelerates. When you find the intersect point, find the distance of the line, and you should have the answer. Sorry if I sound confusing.

Don't you guys think mathemactially? How did scientists were able to determine the value for the gravity force? I'm a mathematican myself, and this idea just appeared in my head from nowhere. Consider this: Stand somewhere high above the ground, and hold an apple in your hand. Get a webcam and position it so it can capture the motion of the apple. Whenever you drop the apple, start the capturing video. The recorded video should tell you the time it hit the ground. 2 important values: height of initial dropping: ([math]V_i[/math]) and time the apple hit the ground ([math]T_2[/math]). You should know that ([math]T_1[/math]) should be zero too. With those values, you might can determine the quadratic equation for the slope on a speed vs. distance graph. Then, the y-intercept value should be at [math]9.81m/s^2[/math]. I know you might not understand what I'm saying, because you're in grade 7. But this is a great experiment that you can determine the gravity's value. You can ask your high school friends to help you. Hope this helps. Note: I thought of the weighting scale at first, but that won't work, because those weighting scales are made to push gravity force which equals to 0.

Good luck. There's no way I can endure even 3 or 4 days with no sleep. But I'm curious, do you just stay at home, or you still do the normal stuff that people do everyday? Go to school or work, etc.? What kind of raw foods do you mean?

Drinking tea helps your blood circulation, and especially for women, it helps to reduce ovarian cancer.

never have seen [math]F = \mu R[/math] before? I know that the boy's weight is [math]392.4 N[/math].

6.25 units is the correct answer. Good job Connor. I'll post another math problem next week, or you guys can provide one. I'll be busy this weekend because I have Provinicials wrestling tournament. Note to The Thing: My younger brother did the Cayley mathematician contest too, but Math is not his favorite subject. I just wished him some good luck.
