The Thing

Wrong. But oh so close. I have the answer, but I DON'T KNOW HOW TO USE SPOILER TAGS!!! Is it

Oookay. For the 27*15 question:

It's 8. twentyseven, 4 syllables, and fifteen, 2 syllables.

And how do you use spoilers? Sorry.

Really? This is a very common puzzle. Ive heard of it at least 3 times.

Saw it where? I thought Darth Sidious was supposed to be a mystery emperor. Anyways Palpatine was a Chancellor and Darth Sidious has always been an Emperor IIRC.

Oo. Very old thread. Just picked it up. Anyways, there is the "downwash" principle, which is an alternative to Bernoulli's. Asymetrical wings may generate lift "according" to Bernoulli's principle, but symetrical wings generate lift too. So that suggests the downwash principle. It says that the lift is generated by air flowing onto the wing and being DEFLECTED by the curvature downwards, thus creating an upwards lift. Many pilots refer to this principle for its simplicity. Ive heard people calling it the "Newtonian" principle, but I dunno if it is really called that.

I have 1 question: Is Darth Sidious Palpatine? Or will that be proven wrong or right in Ep III?

III should show Palpatine -> Sidious.

And think, E=mc^2. If the mass difference is detectable by, say, a centigram scale, then the energy release would be so powerful you wouldn't exist to write down the data. Nearly total annihlation of matter happens only in antimatter and matter reactions. Yay, hopefully thats the reaction for future rockets. But, how will they contain the antimatter? Hmm...

Unless there are only eighty seven ions present, then the lattice is quite small. [img']http://www.scienceforums.net/forums/images/icons/icon7.gif[/img]

No, the lattice is called Giant Ionic Lattice. Thats the name of it, with the giant in front of it. I don't know why they gave it such a name, but it is called "giant ionic lattice".

Because peroxide has an oxidation state of -2, meaning that each oxygen has a valence of -1. In dioxide, each oxygen has a valence of -2.

I think what they are saying is once the car is in the air, they shut the engines and let it glide. THEN it will reduce gas consumption.

As for molecular compounds, they are covalent compounds. Ionic compounds are bonded in a giant ionic lattice.

The Melissa virus is the most notorious virus, and it works by sending itself to everyone in your contact list. So it is very possible for a virus to be sent to you from her account. The fact that it had a list of all her friends' addresses confirms that it is a virus.

Has anyone gotten Ortho-K or laser surgery here? Just curious.

Raptors are replacing the Eagles =(, and what a coincidence! After that, MD gets bought by Boeing! Anyways, F-22 should be combined with F-35 JSFs, but the VTOL nozzles of F-35 would render the stealth tech on Raptors useless, since the nozzles will be rotating. =(

Well said. *applause*

What its suggesting is that energy & mass are interchangeable, and that mass is a concentrated form of energy.

Even in nuclear fission and fusion the mass loss isn't significant. But in antimatter vs matter reactions, almost all of the mass are destroyed and converted to energy, which is what makes them release so much energy.

Go explore the world of organic chemistry. So many different chemicals it will make your head spin.

Okay, polar molecules, electronegativity and covalency are okay. But if he doesn't know what covalent bond IS I don't see the point of explaining orbitals and quantum mech models of covalent bonding to him no offence meant.

Oooo. Im 9-Clinton, 18-Hussein, 27-Ghandi and 45-Hussein again. This isn't right.

Where is Joseph Stalin? Or Benito Mussolini! You missed the most important giant of 20th century, Winston Churchill! Einstein? Since when was he a leader?

Don't be surprised. USA has the most neo-Nazis in the world. Its been statistically proven. So maybe some1 is a Nazi. Nazi is just Fascist with a racism touch, so I'm not surprised hearing there are Nazis. But Nazi as a political party? This is getting ridiculous. Fascism and Nazism both as political parties? Plz don't let that happen again.

Communism is up there. Gee, are ppl scared of a communist or Bolshevik revolution of the world? Better watch out...

How will you control the car once its up in the air? Okay, so we add more rudders, then ailerons, then elevators. Then we slowly get two giant turbofans, we change wheels into landing gears. There, a flying car. But wait, its a plane now!

Why waste all those materials and energy to build a flying car, when we have planes? Now Im not saying Im against the idea of a hovercar. Quite the opposite. Hovercars will be cool...

Gee, you should really 1st learn the 4 basic types of chem reactions, then you'll know all these, and we wouldn't be here. So learn the 4 basic types of Sythesis, Decomposition, Replacement and Dbl Replacement. Now think, which one does you question fit?

Bingo! You got the answer.

Yes. Sigma bond is the simplest bond, where the 2 p orbitals of the atoms share electrons head2head. And there is the pi bond, where they kinda arrange side2side and share electrons. Bit hard to visualize the orbitals if you don't what it looks like, and from the questions you're asking I daresay that you are on Bohr models, so kinda pointless saying all these, but oh well. yeah.
