    What is the Purpose of Science Education?

    Hi, I'm a student of Physics, not really advanced. I´m here to learn about this science I enjoy so much, and if possible, to help others to learn as well. English is not my natural language, so you may find some bizarre words in my posts, from time to time. Please be patient. Thanks!

    Hi determine the height of the mountain (using atmospheric pressure)

    i have the first convertions of the atmospheric pressure: 1872 lbf/ft^2 = 89,632.6 Pa 2016 lbm/ft^2 = 96,325.4 Pa g= 9.72 m/s^2 But, i don't have idea how pass the air density of "lbm" to international units ;,(. And other cuestion: its fine pass lbm/ft^2 and lbf/ft^2 to Pa simirlarly?

    Hi, I have a quick question about graph transformations.

    One of my homework questions said "Explain how to obtain f(x)=-(3+x)^2+1 from the graph of y=x^2." I know somehow you need to move the graph right 3, reflect about the x-axis, and move up one, but I don't know how to factor and manipulate the equation to show this.
