Maybe some KFC

Also, monkeys aren't completely random. They would press the same keys or maybe progress into a pattern. I would guess that after a few years they would hurl the typewriter to the wall and throw feces at it.

Potential energy is turned to Kinetic energy and back at the same rate. It would take the same amount of energy to go up than it made going down. And that is in a perfect frictionless enviroment. When friction is present, PE[math]_1[/math]+KE[math]_1[/math]=KE[math]_2[/math]+PE[math]_2[/math]+Energy(Work done by Friction) Which Reduces to PE[math]_1[/math]=KE[math]_2[/math]+Energy[math]_o[/math][math]_u[/math][math]_t[/math] Therefore, it takes more energy than it produces. Hydroeletric systems rely on the potential energy the water has but it also relys on the sun to evaporate the water to rivers and resupply the water up high.

This would actually make the farmers produce more cows whereas boycotting all meat would get rid of the problem when they go bankrupt. You'd need a lot of people doing it though.

One article in Scientific American a while back said that ever since agriculture became used in Asia (rice fields and then it spread to the rest of the world) the greenhouse gasses started to increase dramatically. It has been increased higher since the industrial age started but the cause from agriculture had been culminating for thousands of years. I can't remember what exactly it said but I'm pretty sure that was the jist of it.

Yeah, I didn't have it checked. It worked after I checked it but it's a really old laptop anyway.

Do you have wireless? I went to a hotel yesterday with a bad wireless connection and a laptop which I hadn't told to remember me and it did the same thing.

I think we had the exact same thing posted a while ago.

It may have been too diluted to appear green.

This would be nice but it would never happen and wouldn't last. People will still have different opinions on religion, how the government should work, and financial situations. There would be different factions formed and eventually end up as different nations again. Many cultures cannot be squashed into one and expect progressive results (short of brainwashing.)

Believing in TK is logical? Just because it is 100% dissproved and is totally illogical? Everything should be taken with a pinch of salt. There was this one video of a guy showing how many of the illusions works that was posted on an earlier thread. I'll go try to find it. edit:: I found it http://www.scienceforums.net/forums/showthread.php?t=18642&highlight=video He talks about some illusions and it's very interesting. He also talks about the physics too.

When you base your neutralist point of view by illusionists and people whose vocation is to decieve others your logic is bound to be flawed.

As v approachs c you must use general relativity (or special, I forget) equations because newtonian ones no longer work.

We wouldn't live forever

How could you explain how it could even be possible. It would involve something which produced enough energy to move things a few feet away. We have mapped the brain pretty well and found no such suspicous thing. Why can only some people do it too? It doesn't add up and they are just illusions. People have shown how it could be done using illusions and it's MUCH better to attribute it to that.

I think if something like that existed there would be more proof. I am very skeptical when something lacks ANY proof. The reason it works for smaller audiences is because it is easier to TRICK them. It is all an illusion. The laws of physics and science are incomplete but to use that as proof or a reason is strawmanning. Where would the energy come from? Why would it work? It doesn't make any sense and has never been CLOSE to proved and is ludicrious. I therefore choose to be very skeptical.

We learned kinetic motion in two dimensions, forces, work, power, electromagnetism, and gravity. Honors goes quicker and is more in depth. I think it also goes further into more complicated physics but not by too much.

I'm not sure but I was looking it up and it might be the binding energies of the nucleus that provide the energy. Is this correct?

I'm in 11th in Physics honors. The teacher very briefly metioned this but most of my learning takes place out of class. If you want to learn about it I suggest getting a book or looking it up online. Depending on how far you are in school, it might be a while before you learn it.

Iron have the smallest and least massive protons (and neutrons?) so fusion and fission stop there because energy couldn't be created anymore. So when a star makes too much iron it can't fuse or fish anymore. Atleast that's what I've heard.

You might touch on it in Physics (hon) and in AP (probably). I'm still in high school but I'm sure they teach it in physics in college and when you take higher physics they are sure to teach it.

Look up "special relativity"

The closer to the speed of light, the more massive you get and the more energy required. This reaches a limit, the speed of light (gasp), which cannot be passed or achieved by an object with mass. Essentially, it would take infinite energy.
