no one wants to try and answer this question?

thank you

Is there a way to cross post to the math forum on here?

Let's say you have n glucose monomers. (C6H12O6) n You want to find out how many possible polymers exist in combining those n number of glucose molecules randomly. So glucose_1 has 6 OHs that can combine with glucose_2 which also has 6 OHs. Starting with glucose_1's first carbon C1, at that...

Hey everyone. Let's say you have a tall tree. say, 10 m tall. Take a cubic cell 1mm in dimensions. Suppose the cell is at 1 m high in the center of the trunk of the tree. What are the forces acting on the cell? let's say tree cell's mass is t grams. its weight is F= ma = t (9.8) = 9.8 t...

could you expound this please?

go read what you said.

that doesn't answer why it's impossible to have supersonic speed in liquid which what you and AT were referring to. many things are chaotic. life is chaotic. life is complex. but what you and AT refer to is equating the supersonic speed in air vs supersonic speed in liquid. now that you have, is...

yes it has. but what you're referring to is equating supersonic movement in air to the supersonic movement in liquid which what A.T referred to

i didn't say they were living in supersonic wind. i asked WHY they don't.

I do not follow. in air you can move faster than the speed of sound because it's not as dense. in liquid, the speed of sound is higher and it is much denser. so moving faster than the speed of sound under water seems impossible. unless you're talking about moving in a cavitation bubble, then...

that's an interesting take.

i don't follow.

what causes the atmosphere to move with rotation of the earth? i understand the jetstream's movements are cause by the temperature differential at the poles and the equator, making undulate in wave like fashion, but it still moves west to east. but why does the air gets dragged by the Earth's...

The Earth's circumference at the equator is 24,901 miles, or 40.075 million meters. It rotates completely once a day or in 86400 seconds. The speed of sound is 343 m/s and the Earth moves at the equator at 40.075 million m/86400 s = 463.831019 m / s which is clearly faster than the speed of...
