I am running Ubuntu 7.10 under the OpenGEU platform name and have set up Virtual Box, which allows me to run XP within Linux. I only do this when I absolutely have to, as i despise Winblows. I have 1 GB of ram with a 2.0 GHz processor and both systems run almost natively. Linux is the way to...
We did Young's experiment in my high school's physics class. Its a little difficult setting up the experement the first time, but nothing too bad. Try the following:
Take a normal everyday microscope slide and paint one side of it black. once it has dried, use a razor blade to cut two thin...
Well, first look at the boiling point of each liquid. Nitrogen condenses at 77 K while Helium condenses at 4.22 K.
It becomes increasingly expensive to cool something down. The closer to absolute zero (0K) something is cooled, the more it will cost.
Now, I believe that most superconductors...
I have done my fair share of these. The only problem with projectile/ explosions are you must be completely certain that they are legal in your area. While it may seem a tad immature, you can make a great project out of studying the muzzle velocity of a potato gun. This can be done with the use...
I have tried the programing scene, but I have had a hard time teaching myself a ligitamate language.
Yes, I am a high school senior, so I don't have a large budget, which is part of the problem. And my school decided a few years back to end shop class, so I only have limited access to...
I was wondering if anyone could aid me in finding an idea for a new project. I was quite sure where to place this thread, so forgiveme if its in the wrong place.
School has just started, and as usual, I am stuck with loads of free time until my classes get up to speed. I figured I would be...
Thank you all for helping me on this one. I thought that the package should have an initial velocity of 30 m/s. Unfortunately, i was the only one to think so :frown: . Oh well. Thanks again
This problem led to a debate in my physics class, which was never resolved.
A helicopter holding a 70kg package from a rope 5m long is accelerating up at a rate of 5.2 m/s^2. Neglect air resistance. When the upward velocity of the helicopter is 30 m/s, the rope is cut and the helicopter...
Buddy Rich is AMAZING! I love that version of Channel One so much. Right now, its my second favorite chart in our book. It just barely takes the backseat to Don Menza's Time Check. Boy that chart can fly. There's nothing better for a jazz trumpeter than a fast, high song :approve:.
You might enjoy Channel one suite. My Band is whipping this one into shape for our next cd.
As for the high notes, I have always found its all about supporting the air. Granted, I am a trumpet player, and know next to nothing about clarinets, but i assume the concept is the same.
The radium that this kid found was from an old clock he bought.
"Inside he discovered a vial of radium paint left behind by a worker either accidentally or as a courtesy so that the clock's owner could touch up the dial when it began to fade. "- the story
Disregarding any other stupidity...
On the risk of turning this thread into a religious debate, i will try to explain this.
Many Christians are offended and become worked up over evolution because it goes aginst the foundations of the Religion. It says very clearly in Gensis ch. 2 that God made man. Jesus later references this...
