I saw an episode on mythbusters(i know, laugh if you must) where plants actually grew faster and healthier while listening to weeks worth of heavy metal. They tried different kinds of music and isolated the plants from other sounds in the same area. It seems that plants like to rock.

However guys,might i remind you that people do it all the time. It seems like a waste of energy, but.. look for yourself.Wiki.

For problem 2. wiki.

At some point, this system would need energy to pump more water up there.Consider the amount of water emptied at the bottom vs. amount of rainfall in that region.

Wow, sounds like you've got too many irons in the fire. First off, the military is a bad idea at this point in time. Second, there's nothing wrong with community colleges, but often times it can put a limitation on the kind of job you can get due to accreditation. Have you spoken to any local industries about doing a co-op or just working for them to get experience?

I hope were talking small scale farming here.

Oh.

Well.. I can think of a million different jobs already. It looks like your leaning torwards the field of engineering. Statistically speaking, engineering jobs are some of the best paying as well as most needed. Engineering has a vast network from biology all the way to computer science. Not everyone that goes to college knows their first year what they want to pursue. For most, it's trial and error. Your first year of college, try signing up for introductory classes to various degrees. These introductory classes can give you insight on the things that truly interest you the most.From there on, things will play out.

The airfoil "pushes the air down" due to the Coanda effect.Wiki

Just imagine how much that would suck if it yielded nothing useful.

It seems to me though, the greatest error resides in measuring the distance between nodes. It's not all that easy to locate exactly where melting first occurred, nor is it precise to measure with a metric ruler.

I'd have to agree with swansont. Despite the loss of hope though,I could see where the charge capacity increase would be beneficial if electric cars become standard.

Looks like I'm in good shape then.

I understand now.The circumference [math] c=2\pi*r[/math] needs to be divided by [math]\cos\Theta[/math] in order to account for the latitude. On the equator that value ends up being 1 anyway. Say you head 5 degrees up in latitude.. the change in velocity becomes less effective just as it should. At the poles, latitude is equal to 90 degrees giving you 0 difference along that axis.

is there a better way to test this or practice than trial and error? [math]c=2\pi*r*\cos\Theta[/math]

I'm weak in electromagnetics, but I do know there are limitations on these kinds of things due to the modulation index and bandwidth. From experience with wireless networks, I've found that putting more power into the antenna with only result in more noise.. in effect, decreasing the total range and efficiency.

Is the math above shown for an object at the equator? I believe this problem goes beyond newtonian mechanics([math] F_{centripetal} = M\frac{v^2}{R} [/math]). As I mentioned before, the centripital/centrifugal forces should change as you approach the poles.Am I wrong? If so, please explain.

..sounds alot like trying to create nothingness if you ask me.

Ah.. centrifugal is probably what he meant.Yes, it COULD be possible and it would matter where you stood on the earth at the time. Remember the earth, just as anything that rotates, rotatates about an axis. If you were to stand at a pole you would feel nearly no difference. However, if you were to stand at, say, the equator, you should feel it at maximum. This would take more than a gradual increase though. Just imagine what would happen if we saw night and day that quick. People would be having epilepsies.

I agree with frosch. The way I understand it.. if you even got close, the gravitational pull would be stong enough to collapse even the strongest of matter.

I think it's fair to say we all have different weaknesses and strengths.. for me, I hate forcing memory. Those ionic compounds drove me up the wall!

Sheesh, alot heat around here.. I'm gett'n outa here.

Motor Daddy has a good point. Can we really place an absolute value on position or time?
