  1. Yes. Too rapid (de)acceleration can kill crew. After exceeding 5-6 g typical human is losing consciousness. Astronauts and air jet pilots wear special suits to increase their limits (and have regular training). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-G_training
  2. If it would be Copper Sulfate dissolved in water, and reduced, what would be doing this piece of metallic Copper inside of flask? I would have to have Sulfuric acid initially in flask.
  3. I think you should start from the beginning, Like f.e. electrolysis of water with Gold electrode, to make Hydrogen, and Oxygen. Then make Cockcroft-Walton generator, or other high voltage generator, and ionize Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Air, Carbon Dioxide, etc. etc. Split light on prism, Try to analyze spectral lines, etc. etc. etc. This is basis of the real quantum physics. Not some fairy tales..
  4. If you measure mass of some macroscopic object to be f.e. 1 kg, it's basically summed masses of the all atoms making this object. If you can count quantity of elements/compounds (like in mass spectrometry), one ionized atom by atom, one ionized compound by compound, it'll be pretty accurate. (average mass of single element/compound multiplied by their quantity in say billions instances (II world war nuclear bombs U-235 were made by mass spectrometers like devices)). If you measure volume of some solid object it is volumes of the all atoms together, plus spaces between them. The less spaces, the more accurate results. If you measure area of some object it is all areas (on surface) of the all atoms together, plus spaces between them. The less spaces, the more accurate results. Volume/area measurement tend to be pretty inaccurate though. Varying very much from material to material, element to element. And temperature/pressure dependent. For measurements done here on Earth, we can be pretty sure results from these measurements. As they can be repeated limitless times. And performed various different ways to be sure results are correct. f.e. to calculate 1 m^3 of water we can do electrolysis of water, and turn it to Hydrogen gas and Oxygen gas. Ionize Hydrogen, and count quantity of protons in mass spectrometer. This is extended further to the entire Universe. f.e. uniform rest-mass of proton or electron. Math equations are not measurement of physical object. You sort of measured quantity of atoms that are making floor of your room. There is quite large quantity of atoms of various elements (118), and various isotopes (3142), that are in unimaginable quantity of configurations making your floor. What is "physical measurement" is all the time introduced subject in threads in Speculation section of this forum. This is actually amount of energy. The more energy the higher temperature, and the more extended volume of Hg.

    Car Accident

    ? Sorry, but I didn't ask for "coefficient of friction" in the first place...
  6. My new crystals... I just yesterday noticed how they grew up. They were growing up 4-5 months at least. I set up beaker in June-July 2015. The largest one has 3 cm +-.

    Car Accident

    You're ruling out time. Cosmic trash (remains from rockets and satellites) won't stay on orbit infinite long. They will either escape or the most likely fall back to the Earth. It's just a matter of years, thousands years or million years. Energy are all the time absorbed by them from the Sun, and stars, and emitted by radiation of hot black body. Everything on orbit is just for a while (perhaps billions years "while") (meta)stable orbit.

    Car Accident

    That would require not existence of gravitational force of Earth, Moon, Sun and Galaxy. Velocities acquired during hit of two cars, are far less than escape velocities of either cosmic objects mentioned above.
  9. BTW, Cis is here often denoted as C# Dis D# Fis F# Gis G# Ais A# I have Yamaha PSR-S500, You can hear it f.e. here Bought it ~10 years ago for $1000. Now you should be able to get it much cheaper. Or better quality model. While choosing model pay special attention to how you will plug it to computer. Now standard is USB. Keyboard has to send information about what key you pressed on keyboard to application on the computer, which will record them (as notes, sampling is yet another possibility). That're important features for composers.
  10. Sorry. No. I didn't mess with you. I never mess with any body. Rather I think we misunderstood each other. We're from different languages countries. Have to translate everything back and forth. That's why I wanted to explain what I meant in the first post by "lack of chords". What I meant is triads https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triad_(music) In my interpretation Arpeggios are not true/full chords. Even in wikipedia you have: "An alternative translation of this term is "broken chord". " Wiki page of Chords: "In tonal Western classical music, the most frequently encountered chords are triads, " Interpret my post #5 as "you don't have triad chords". My wikipedia in my language in triad page has "triad is the simplest chord" Major chord is also referring to 3 sounds played simultaneously without delays https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_chord What do you meant by this? H is button on keyboard/piano, on the left of C..
  11. Well, since you provided notes it's very easy to notice.. Chord that I am talking about are visible as one note above other note, and in the most of cases 3rd note above them. Like C,E,G. Played by single hand, of single person. Although, you can double them, using 2nd hand. Or triple/quad if two persons play simultaneously. (this example has two key presses at a time, mostly) Do you have the real keyboard piano? Try this: C,E,G (simultaneously by three fingers at a time) C,E,G C,E,G D,F,A D,F,A D,F,A H,D,F (H key on the left of initial C above) H,D,F H,D,F A,C,E A,C,E A,C,E
  12. Are you kidding me? I would say that Swansont is realist, and ajb is anti-realist.. Ajb is mathematician. And they tend to have geometric based interpretation of Universe. See f.e. what happened to Perelman.. According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-realism "Anti-realism in science" "In philosophy of science, anti-realism applies chiefly to claims about the non-reality of "unobservable" entities such as electrons or genes, which are not detectable with human senses." "scientist" who would say so to me, would instantly land up in crackpot/layman zone.. As I am saying these electrons emitted by radioactive isotopes, or from decay of cosmic rays, in particle detectors such as Cloud Chamber.. Mathematician can think/interpret these objects-electrons as mathematical not existing in reality objects, because they have very little experimental experience. And have not seen them on their own eyes.. While they're real and can be seen (at least where they were a while ago).
  13. 1) nuclear fission. 2) tremendous advance in understanding of radioactivity, and it's influence on living organisms, mutations etc. 3) advance in rocket technology, leading to flight to Moon, and other cosmic objects and discoveries. Satellites. I wish that peaceful cooperation of nations would lead to the same achievements in science and technology..
  14. That's rather obvious that you need to power your routers and modems from reliable power source, to get e-mail message, that something is wrong. In LTE age, we're not limited just to cable Internet. So it's just a matter of connecting Android device to server machine, and tell custom made app to send something. Server->Android phone->message to admin. Or PCI-Express LTE card plugged to server, f.e. http://www.amazon.com/Sierra-Airprime-MC7750-Express-Verizon/dp/B00JY4SHEY It can be private messaging system with admins, not sometimes unreliable e-mails. Such system should be checking if message actually arrived or not, and demand reply. If there is no reply, repeat operation. Alternative is to periodically ping server. Say admin is in New York Queens and server is in Manhattan. Queens machine is sending couple bytes packet, every 60 seconds. If there is response, it's working fine. If not, something is wrong, and have to warn admin for further investigation.
  15. That's why people invented UPS.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uninterruptible_power_supply My UPS model has option to send e-mail when there is power failure. Through USB, it can also tell computer to shutdown. And to execute commands entered in options. So if there is power failure, admin is informed (and have to instantly go to work), and device is nicely shutdown. Wake on LAN, allows remotely starting up computer that's shutdown, but plugged to power supply https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wake-on-LAN Once there is power supply fixed, admin can start system remotely.. (so it can be also used by agents and hackers)
  16. Sounds like you are overwhelmed by your mother. At least in your own imagination. How can your mother downing you in f.e. school? She is at home, far from class.. So you're bothering "what she will say" even if she is not around you.. Once you will get out of this unhealthy relationship, by moving out of house (and keeping contact at minimum f.e. holy days), after a few years, you should be good. Join f.e. karate class. Start training sport. It will help to raise your self confidence.
  17. When the last time you installed operating system.. ? The only bluescreens that I saw this year was correlated to messing with SATA HDD. Disconnecting and connecting again HDD with spare Win7 system on 2nd disk. After plugging disk, it was incorrectly connected, and Windows was shutting down to not damage it (after 10-20 minutes of work). After disconnecting it, and plugging right one, it stopped happening.
  18. The first impression from your 1st music that I heard (not this one), was "no chord!". And here it is again. Only one key press at a time. No chord. So it's not accident. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chord_(music) Just to inspire you for experimentation, not to discourage. +2
  19. The simplest calculations can be done with monochrome light source like laser. Say we have source with wavelength 532 nm (middle of visible spectrum), green photon has energy E=h*f=h*c/wavelength = 6.62607004*10^-34 * 299792458 / 532 *10^-9 = ~3.734*10^-19 J = ~2.33 eV energy. If you have 1 W power light source, and no loss, 1 W / 3.734*10^-19 J = 2.678*10^18 photons emitted per second. For lights made of multiple wavelengths, you need to sum the all photons the all energies together. For perfect white light no wavelength/frequency/energy is significant than others (otherwise it would be slightly tinted = more photons quantity). Photons passing through some liquids and solids can rotate their polarization. Example of such is sugar dissolved in water. If you have polarization filter, point it at LCD monitor screen (not all models, f.e. one my smartphone do, other doesn't), and start spinning. You can see that at some angle it's entire black. Spin further to +-90 degree, and it's fully visible. Polarization filter reflects photons with certain polarization, while passing through the rest. So in extreme idealized situation, whole beam is reflected, and nothing pass through (and black color on filter), or whole beam pass through, and nothing is reflected (filter transparent). Photons with same polarization have the same direction of E/B vectors in classical physics. I showed how polarization filters works with polarized photons in this thread http://www.scienceforums.net/topic/80366-particle-location/page-3#entry783255 So you can see it on your own eyes (photos). Reflective materials, often can change polarization of photons. Take container with water, polarization filter. Look through polarization filter at water surface at some angle, start spinning. You will see that reflection is appearing/disappearing (and you can more easily see what is beneath of water surface).
  20. Walk around Chernobyl video
  21. There is such possibility. You should have Geiger counter with you to check it. If it'll go too high, you will have to leave it.
  22. Radioactive isotopes can indeed get into airplane. If they will be present in atmosphere. Whether it will cause issues in the future or not is pure matter of luck. Any kind of radiation, even from background, is dangerous. It's pure random process. If you won't have luck, particle emitted by radioactive isotope will pass through your cell DNA, and damage it in such way, cancer will grow up in the future. However there are such amount of radiations that would destroy/damage too many cell at the same time, and acute radiation syndrome will be inevitable. More info https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acute_radiation_syndrome Some isotopes, such as Caesium-137 (result of fission of Uranium-235), are easily dissolved in water, which means they can easily get into living organism body, and remain there for long time. Not exactly. Gamma radiation can't "stick" to anything. Radiation can change non-radioactive material to radioactive material. f.e. neutron capture. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_capture
  23. Electrostatic charged bodies are easily detectable, as they act like this plume for instance: Electrons want to be as far as they can from other electrons, causing movement of elements. Earth has radius 6370 km, Area A=4*PI*r^2, so A=4*3.14159265*6370000^2=5.099*10^14 m^2 You have Qearth=5.146043764 * 10 ^ 14 C That's ~1 C per 1m^2 of Earth surface..
  24. I have general advice for you for future. Simply enter label of whatever electronics you find in google search field, and you will see shops selling this stuff, with details, and everything mentioned, or even wikipedia page. Google "magicgate" https://www.google.com/search?q=magicgate BTW, there is plentiful of flash card standards. Every company has its own version. These connectable to USB are just minority of the market. If you have few brands digital cameras, you need special flash cards reader like this: Yes, I know, it's ridiculous quantity of "standards".... It's to screw customers by electronics companies.. Customers are forced to buy one company products for years after initial digital camera/video recorder/printer/scanner/game/phone/electronics purchase. EU from time to time, force companies to make standards, but they're too quick, and too greedy. And now they made different batteries/accumulators. You have to have spare accumulators, rechargers, AC->accumulator replacements, for all the time running camera etc. etc. After initial purchase there is list of support stuff needed to buy for 50%+ of initial price. And matching exclusively model you bought and nothing else.. The next year same company will make different model, with different standard of everything.. And it'll repeat again.
  25. So you meant this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RCA_connector Enter "hdmi to rca connector converter" (or adapter) to Google, and you have them f.e. http://www.ebay.com/bhp/hdmi-to-rca-adapter But you must be careful to pick right one: HDMI has to be input, and RCA output, not reverse.
