As you are lying on the beach this past summer, you watch in awe as a super huge strato-nimbo-cummulus storm cloud roll in.
You pull out your iphone and use the "electroscope" App allowing you to measure the charge on the storm cloud. It reads +40C. You tell your bf/gf...
Hi guys, i have read and read and read all this stuff about x=vt(cosA), y = vt(sinA)-1/2gt^2
now i am not a pyhsics guy and never claimed to be, i am a programmer. This is what i am trying to accomplish. I am trying to write a small VB app to calculate velocity of a golf club head. I and...
I'm sure a lot of you are aware of the competition Wal-Mart is hosting where you 'like' a city on facebook in need of food bank donations. The winning city gets $1.5 million for food banks. Now, as people on the internet love to do, there have been hostilities and name calling all around with...
Should I mention for example hiking to demonstrate my determination, or describe my experience in being a member of organizations such as AIESEC, which might demonstrate my team and leadership skills but has nothing to do with physics.

dV/dT = 0.15(300-V)
V is the volume of water in a container at time T. The rate of water flowing into the container is constant at 45 units^3/s. The rate of water leaking is proportional to the volume of water currently in the container. Find the volume of water in the...
I have a FileSystemWatcher, that moves excel data to a database when ever an excel sheet is made. But it keeps closing on the second iteration, and I can't understand why. Can someone please help. Here is the code.

Dear all,
i noticed in all low temp. apparatus like cryo...usually all the internal parts are wrapped with few thin mylar sheets in order to avoid heat leak (heat from surrounding is transferred to cryo)..also some ppl. told me it is for radiation (or thermal) shield..

When I would send a bundle of tiny randomly orientated magnets through a Stern-Gerlach apparatus I don’t think I would expect the pattern as obtained with silver atoms, displaying two separated spots. So how exactly does the electron spin effect the path of the atoms in this experiment?
So I posted similar thread a while ago, and it ended in me giving working at this lab a go. I've worked there two times a week since the start of the summer, and I can barely bring myself to go in. Next to my systems admin job, there is practically no reason to go to the lab. When I go to the...

Hello folks,
Ok, I've been doing windows application tutorials, and I can make a mean dropdown list and dialog box, but I have no idea how to get the windows app to use a function. Say I just want a dialog box to pop up and use the function:
int myFunction ()
{
int i = 1;
return i...
Somebody told me recently that taking too many class looks bad because "it seems" that taking fewer classes shows that the student is concentrating more in depth.
I want to take 5 this coming semester. I naturally would think that this is helping me become more qualified (taking a harder...

I am a second-year student and I go to a school with a not-so-strong theoretical physics department but a very strong math department. I am planning on going to grad school in theoretical physics.
I will have completed the physics major at the end of this semester and I am deciding which...
what is the difference between a linear approximation and a tangent line?
my understanding is that the linear approximation is that it uses the tangent line at (a, f(a)) as an approximation to the curve y = f(x).
my question really is, then why in calculus I do they make an entirely separate...
I need to get a server running locally so I can run my 'Hello World' Java Web app.

Don't worry, I'm not spamming the board asking for your vote. :) This is a chance for every Mac user to share what they think would be in an ideal vlogging app. If the app makes...
Hello guys,
I'm looking for an application to capture audios from videos, best if into .mp3 format. It'd also be great if I can modify quality by myself.
I'd rather prefer it to be free, but doesn't have to.

Any Citrix/Terminal Services gurus around?
In an effort to cut costs and boost ROI, I'm thinking about introducing a Citrix box (or just using Windows TS) to load a few applications on for our LOCAL users to access - as in they will have a connection to the box at GigE speeds.
The applications...
The question is as follows:
the partial derivative (given as a partial, but i don't know the notation, so letter d is really little delta for the partial)
(du/dT)p = Cp - P(Beta)v
where Beta = expansivity coefficient = 1/v (dv/dT)p
again, all the "d's" are lowercase delta's for the...

I want to apply for this scholarship and they want a 250-word essay on why I'm choosing this field (biomedical engineering). My question is should I make sure its 250 word + or - a couple words or is it typically OK to go bigger? I've never applied for one of these things before so I don't know...
