Yeah, but there were hundreds, so there were many more factors that come into play.

thats why i said maybe if they got close to something else.

Other than the fact that you can't go the speed of light, yes.

yeah i know, im just giving an example.

anyways, thanks

Wow' date=' that's interesting and indeed rather strange.

 

This is really like two distinct persons living in the same body. How do these persons react to the situation? Do they know that there is somhow someone else in their head? Seen from the perspective of one of those persons...

The person is still them, but they may do things that one side of the brain doesnt want to because the two hemispheres are working alone.

It is still the same person, because both sides of the brain know the person, its just that things wont work in unison and they normally did.

 

Oh yeah, and i looked it up in this prinout i still had.

Its called a Split-brain operation, because the people who need these will have epileptic seizures, so by cutting the Corpus Collosum, it will stop.

 

basically, as i said, the Corpus Collosum permits the two hemispheres to know what each one is doing. So when it is cut, they dont know what the other is doing, so they act on their own, because the other side isnt telling it what it is doing.

 

so, an example is (someone converses with their left side, therefore operations of the right hemisphere are diffcult to detect) that someone puts down a book with their left hand (right side of the brain) even though they have been reading it with great interest.

 

and other things like that.

ohh right.

Its just like the thing where if someone is in space going the speed of light for 2 years, (their POV 2 years), on earth the time is going to be longer.

So to earth it looks like the people in space are going slower.

correct?

If a charged particle is very short-lived then expeirmentalists can accelerate a beam of them to very high speeds so that they live longer in the lab frame, and hence they can be better studied.

sorry to bump this thread... but im confused on that part.

I thought the moving object goes slower, and time in the lab stays "the same".

and if so, how could we observe it more if our time in the lab stays the same?

sorry, kinda rusty on this. I havent had relativity in 2 yrs.

It doesnt sound like it could happen, unless there was another force acting upon them?

Because, from the short paragraph, the moons pretty much switch spaces. One slows down, one speeds up, and they are now in different orbits. So it sounds like no matter how big/fast, they will always switch.

Then again, it is possible, maybe if the moons got close to another planet/star/moon?

I dont know, but thanks for the read

edit: and if they did collide, wouldnt one moon get thrown into a different orbit, or totally out of one?

oh... well, i'll look it up.

Wikipedia rules.

Oh, interesting question.

What aboug insects with Orange blood?

I know ive smushed a few and everything inside is orange.... although, im not sure if it is blood or just their insides.

Yeah, i was thinking the same thing.

And with your -5 apples, when you do get 5 apples, you will have none, because you have to give them to the guy you borrowed them from, or you could keep them... but then he'll sue you.

oh ok, thanks Mmalluck, i was thinking in terms of regular batteries.

And i dont know enough to figure out the voltage of decay myself

id guess that the hair and eye colours are linked

Hair Color

Eye Color

Skin Color

all contain melanin.

I belive they are all linked, for the most part.

wow, thats awesome

imagine switching out portable CD players before batteries!

if they made them that small.

not to mention, battery companies would go out of buisness.

but, i assume these batteries are very expensive?

edit: also, these batteries could be used to powe cars, instead of electric or hybrid cars we could have battery powered cars.

I agree, but I think he means a biologist that is qualified to at least speculate as to what life on another planet may be like.

Yeah, and the field is called: Astrobiology.

(which is the same as xenobiology or exobiology)

well it is independant but you're statistics are a bit rusty' date=' its much less likely to have multiple children with blue eyes

 

chances of one blue eyed child: 1:2

chances of two blue eyed childs: 1:4

chances of three blue eyed childs: 1:8

chances of four blue eyed childs: 1:16

chances of five blue eyed childs: 1:32[/quote']

 

you sure about those ^

 

if i remember correctly the chance of ONE blue eyed child was more like 1:4 or more. I mean, it all depends on the parents.

 

Unless im missing something, your statistics say that 1 child will either have blue eyes or X eyes. leaving no room for more than 2 colors.

I'm also curious as to why you joined a scientific community to bring this up.

thats what i was wondering.

generally when one joins a forum they dont post such an experience first thing.

I think yelling is better than hitting.

because i remember when i was a kid i knew when my parents were angry or not.

So i suspect if a parent were to raise their voice and look angry, then the child would get upset?

also, taking away things works too.

"If you ask me again, you cant go to your friends house for 1 week"

A kid doesnt know how long a week is (well, not as much as an adult) so he might stay put, and if he does do it again, then he wont go to his friends, and learn from that.

i hate to see a kid get hit.

I was at the YMCA once, and the parent stupidly brought her little kid there. Kid doesnt want to work out, or leave the parent, and the parent wanted the kid to go int o a room with couches and stuff, and the kid wouldnt.

so the parent was like "im gonna spank you in front of everyone" and the kid started to cry and stuff, but of course the kid wouldnt let go. (cant blame the kid, what the hell is he suppsed to do at the YMCA?)

so yeah, then she took the kid in the bathroom, and they came out, the kid was all red from crying and stuff, which i hate to see.

but not only that, the mom said "see, now everyone is looking at you"

which i thought silly, i was looking at the mom who was making the big deal.

in anycase, i think there are other not-so-violent ways of discipline.

Is this really true? Do you have a source for it?

 

At least that sounds very strange... so that person's two brain halves aren't connected anymore? Does one half always control one arm then or how does the experiment work?

 

it is strange, but when you do cut the corpus callosum the hemispheres work alone.

Therefor, you may do one thing, and your other hand may do another, because they are not interacting. With your right hand you may go to take a fork to eat, but your left hand may go and do something else, like take a cup of water.

its pretty hard to describe, but it does happen. Its usually after a surgery that requires the corpus callosum to be severed.

edit: ill come back to this thread with a better example.

and on topic: conciousness is, as i learned, a comination of all the parts of the brain. YOu can still have it if part of your brain is missing. in other words, if i remember correctly, its a "joint effort" (between all the parts of the brain, not just 1).

well, it stopped now.

it wasnt really a buzzing noise, just a constant high pitch.

the noise wasnt that loud, you had to be sitting in front of it to get the full feel of it, if i stood 10 feet away, i could barely hear it.

and i turned off the comp, and left the screen on, and it didnt make the noise

there are no speakers in the screen.

its not a flat screen.

its actually pretty old, like 7+ years old.

turned off the comp, and now it doesnt do it anymore,

but anyone have an idea why it did?

all of a sudden this very high pitched noise came in my room, and only my room.

When i turn off my computer screen, it stops, when i turn it back on, it goes on again.

any idea!?

Greets Mag' date=' you've tolds us which langs you are being forced to learn.

Which would you want to learn though?

oh yeah, of course.

 

I would like to take German.

i took Spanish for a few years, and my teacher kept switching, and i wanst any good at it, so im not taking that

but i am taking Hebrew... (cuz i have to (Jewish parents + new Jewish High School = me going there and having to take Hebrew))

and i am proud to say that i have dropped down in level.

Freshman year: Heb2

Beg of Soph year: Heb2

Mid-End of Soph year: Heb1

Jr year: Heb1

ohhh right, of course!

i learned about that: that in the morning, you are taller than you are in the day time/evening.

because when you lie down, your spine stretches out, and is not being crunched by gravity. but when you stand up, for a few hours, it starts to get smushed.

sure, thing.

do they really? permanently?
