  1. Actually, they did. The Air Force just had a retarded design and a fuel element failure. Result: part of Iowa was contaminated and the Air Force gets no reactors. The Army had a good one too. They wanted a portable reactor to power remote outposts. They were dumb and pulled a control rod out by hand. The reactor went prompt critical and the guy pulling the control rod was nailed to the ceiling by it. Needless to say, the Army doesn't get to play with reactors anymore. And then there's the Navy.....
  2. VenomFangX is not a good source of information about ANYTHING.
  3. no!
  4. What's the basis for claiming that pi is 3 at plank length?
  5. Hey! Welcome to SFN and thanks for the friend request. You should try out our Internet Chat Relay. You can click on the chat link above or search the site for IRC.

  6. F=ma [math]F_g=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}[/math] We can combine them to form: [math]m_1 a_g=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}[/math] Which simplifies to: [math]a_g=G\frac{m_2}{r^2}[/math] This means that the acceleration due to gravity is independent of the mass of the bodies being accelerated. This is only true in the special case of objects near earth sea level or an equivalent scenario.
  7. It depends on how the plane works. If it works like the one the US Air Force made, then NO! If it has a sane design, then yes.
  8. The moon doesn't orbit the earth. The moon and earth both orbit a center of mass of the system.
  9. * ydoaPs has 1335 songs on his playlist <Raxo> get 2 more <ydoaPs> after two more, i don't think i could bear to get any more <Raxo> 4d 15:33:12.469 <Raxo> worth of music * ydoaPs only has 3.4d <Raxo> 2d 20:31:14.228 in my playlist <Gilded> 1wk 0d 13:40:43.428 <Raxo> damn you <Gilded> Hmm actually I hadn't updated the playlist in a while <Gilded> 1wk 1d 4:27:58.474 <Gilded> Most of it is crap though <ydoaPs> Raxo, keep in mind that Gilded has no job and spends all day illegally downloading porn and music <Raxo> ahh <Gilded> That is completely inaccurate <Gilded> I also download movies and games and watch and play them, respectively
  10. No. You'll also need the change of base formula if your calculator doesn't let you choose your own base.
  11. Then give us something to believe. And where is this "scientific proof"?
  12. Quick question: where's the science?
  13. http://www.scienceforums.net/forum/showthread.php?t=34101 Closed last time. It will probably be closed this time.
  14. Bollocks!
  15. BTW, why did you post this again?
  16. A car and some nuclear plants are very similar.

    Bigfoot?

    Why no arch? Why no toes? Notice how the bigfoot heel protrudes, but none of the ape feet(human or otherwise) do. How do the Achilles tendons in the Bigfoot work? That would sure make it hard for it to walk like that.

    Bigfoot?

    That statement is not inaccurate.
  19. AFAICT, the answer for T would make the equation indeterminant.
  20. I thought [math]\Delta E[/math] in your equation is the change in gravitational potential energy, not the change in total mechanical energy. IIRC, in situations such as falling objects, KE1+PE1=KE2+PE2. If you choose your reference frame right, you can make some terms cancel. I'll leave that up to you.
  21. Bascule is pants.
  22. I was under the impression that acceleration breaks the symmetry and we can thus tell which wristwatch is correct.

    Bigfoot?

    Did you even watch the video? The feet are FLAT. They have no arch and no toes. They look nothing like an ape foot(human or otherwise). In fact, they look like the padded feet of a costume. That combined with the extremely NON-apelike heel seems to point towards the patterson video being fake. Not to mention the way it walks.
  24. Another thing I hate(not an analogy, but just annoying) is the extremely common confusion of critical and supercritical. Criticality is good; it means the neutron population is stable. In a critical reactor, the net neutron population is neither increasing(supercritical) nor decreasing(subcritical). Uranium salts aren't used as fuel; uranium oxides are!
