Ok, so anyone who has studied magnetism knows that the magnetic field due to a solenoid is given by the equation B=\mu_oNI Where N is the number of turns in a given length. Well, in thinking about these, I tend not to make measurements and would rather like to predict the magnetic field of the...

I cannot get these two questions at all. Can someone teach me how to do these? A spring with k = 47 N/m hangs vertically next to a ruler. The end of the spring is next to the 15 cm mark on the ruler. If a 2.7 kg mass is now attached to the end of the spring, where will the end of the spring...

Does anyone know how insulin is produced nowadays? I know that bacteria get a human gene which codes for the production of insulin, but I'd like to get some more in-depth information because we have to make a folder at school.

What's the current maximum particle energy we can produce on earth? Also, what is the maximum we theoretically will achieve from proposed future accelerators, like the big loop at the LHC? I'm guessing 1TeV.

Hello all, I have been bitten by the bug of taking the Waste Vegetable Oil produced by the kitchen at the school where I teach Physical Science and reforming it into BioDiesel. I have spent the last two days absorbing what I can find on the net. All the recipies use lots of alcohol...

I'm on a ridiculous pace for completing a year's worth of Chemistry... I have two weeks left to finish over a semester's worth, so I'm struggling to learn all the concepts thoroughly and get decent grades. And so I keep getting stuck on problems. This problem is really giving me a headache...
