  1. Simple question. Is rolling a six-sided dice that has 5 sides with a 1 and 1 side with a 6 random? Not a 1-6 dice. Or is rolling two dice random?
  2. Can a liquid, gas, or plasma be compressed into a solid if u keep a constant temeperature. I realize the relationship between temp/pressure which is why I am asking this question with the added "constant temperature". Thanks
  3. those analogies were absolutley awesome. Thank you very much for those.
  4. the other day I was asked a question about evolution that I feel has an easy answer yet i just don't know. If evolution is a long process of change, then why aren't there any half-chimp/half-human? Or why are there chimps still left today that aren't human?
  5. I believe that when a proton and an anti-proton connect they turn into energy yet produce powerful gamma rays that are very dangerous. When a positron and a electron combine i believe that the gamma ray "let off" is less that when the anit-proton and the proton combine. IF one was to combine a full anti-hydrogen with hydrogen would it give off a lot of gamma rays or less. MY question is basically was is more efficient and less dangerous: proton/anti-proton, positron/electron, or anti-atom/atom?
  6. I recently saw some designs for an electromagnetic turbine engine. I am skeptical of the design and was wondering if it is possible or feasible. The basic principle is that like a gas turbine engine it will take air and compress is but instead of mixing fuel with it and igniting the mixture, it ionizes the air a repels it out the back of the turbine engine. This is some what like a space ion thruster but i believe its different in the fact that the acceleration is achieved by compressing air and ionizing it. It is supposed to get a double kick, one from the repulsion from accelerating it with a magnetic field of the same charge as the ionized air and other from simply using the "fan" like system of the turbine. This design was NOT for a car, it was for a way of accelerating a MagLev type train. So basically would this work with no ground friction yet air resistance still present.
  7. Are (+) and (-) oxygen Ions toxic or just one of them?
  8. yes the (-) charge of the plate will not be facing the ions tho. and y would there be (-) ions?
  9. If i charge a plate (+) and under that plate (being contained by something so they won't disperse) are (+) charged ions, if there are enough ions then won't the plate float due to the repulsive force of like charges?
  10. wait so i couldnt charge that E.M. field?
  11. why would it lose its charge if its container has the same charge?
  12. If I was to put a (-) charged plate on top of a lot of (-) gas particles, and then surronded the edge of the plate (extending down to the ground) with a magnetic field, wouldn't the plate float due to the like charges wanting to repele from each other?
  13. If i had an electromagnetic field roughly 6 feet tall and i "shot" a particle that had the same charge as the field (they want to repel), would the particle go through? Do we have strong enough E.M. fields to stop particles with identical charges to the field from passing through?
