Can global warming be attributed to the large increases in processes in today's world that produce heat. Every day things such as transporation, A/C, creation of electricity, all produce heat. Can this be linked to global warming?
I think that's okay for the most part, though there are other factors that contribute to global warming besides our world's processes (e.g. cow burps).

... I turned my spare into a linux box... I like the linux environment better for programming
I've got an old comp sittting here too.
When you guys say linux box, what exactly to you mean?
Just a comp. that runs Linux-based OS or something else?
My old comp's got:
AMD K62 350 MHz
3.2 GB HD
32 MB ram
4 MB video card
36X reader
floppy
HOwever, it's still got Win98, and there's only ~200 mb of space left on the HD. I've heard of people doing dual boots with Win & Linux by partitioning their drive from the get-go, but can I still partition it to do a dual boot? More importantly, will Linux run on < 200 mb?

I know bloodhound' date=' but, as I have come across physics for several years, I have never face a problem to manipulate those algebraic symbols in this way... the subject v[sup']2[/sup] does not make sense to physics, why would I find something like the square of final velocity?
so, there must be something more in its background, since it is not just algebraic manipulation that you just come accross naturally, but it's an equation that many textbooks taught!
Any body?
Albert
Why can't the square of the final velocity exist?
As a corrolary, what happens when you isolate for final velocity?
If you like these sorts of things, then look up kinematics. There's much more where that came from. More specifically, dynamics and such.
It gets even more interesting when you use seperation, integration and such.
Enjoy!

I'm a bit lost from step 3 --> 4. How is the result of the measurement sent to ion C? Or is that the nature of entanglement?
The measurement result can be sent any way you want - digital signal along an optical fiber; carrier pigeon. It's because this communication is necessary that means that no information exceeds c. The entanglement is the "tie" between the two original particles.
I still don't understand this part.
So ... does ion B call ion C on it's new cell phone and say: "hey, I've been detected as +1/2 now, you've got change to -1/2 now" ?

hm...there's more to an OS than just aesthetics.
Some of the things you posted about (i.e. bottom bar with commonly used apps.) can be included as a plugin as sayo said in the other thread:

I'm pretty sure they use the Taylor expansion.
It's actually quite funny when I input a large sum of sines & cosines into my scientific calculator, and it returns an "Error 3"

ah...touché
But why is the state of ion A lost then?

... once the measurement (presumably of the spin of the ion) is sent to ion C' date=' how does ion C recieve that? like if you just shoot data waves (e.g. radio waves) at an atom it wont interact, but yet in this case it does, so why does ion C recieve and 'appl'y this information to itself?
or is it easier just to say this is what entaglement is!?[/quote']
That's my predicament as well.
What is it in the measurement from one that changes the other?
Or is that the weirdness about entanglement?
0 -
Well, I don't have the answers to you questions 5614, but I've got some of my own.
...and then change it, nothing happens to the other particle, because they are no longer entangled.Step 3: One ion from the pair - in this case B - is entangled with A and both are measured
Step 4: The result of the measurement is sent to ion C and the tranformation implemented
I'm a bit lost from step 3 --> 4. How is the result of the measurement sent to ion C? Or is that the nature of entanglement?

I hate it when people use the term Engineering where it should not be.
What is it that you are engineering with Social Engineering?
Engineering deals with tangible items.
As for those social topics you talk of, I won't bother, as that is not my field.

mmm....raspberry pi
For questions like those, I like to use the factor label method, whereby I write all the units and try to arrange them in such a way that they cancel each other to give the desired one.

There's also a similar argument that goes something like this:
If you were to go back in time and kill your grandfather, would you exist?

How about when solving movement questions.
What's the acceleration of the car?
-3m/s' date='-5/s[/b']
It's -2m/s^2 or 2m/s^2 towards the negative direction.
So related to negative and positive questions?
I don't understand.
Negative/positive questions?

Last year I had planned on reading the Oddessy but I was forced to read a book called The Giver. It was actually very good. The plot is based around a utopia in which the people are lacking something but they don't realize it.
I suggest it for those who find philosophy interesting.
heh
I cheaped out & read it @ sparknotes

In practice, you're never going to be asked to do this. At most, you'll be asked for a 3D equilibrium point. For larger dimensions, it's better to use something like Mathematica to solve the equations for you.
Speaking of Mathematica, I remember you praising it alot over SFN.
What's a better program overall: Mathematica or Matlab?

Powerpoint has some nice animations itself via. the "custom animation" feature. Ofc, you have to design the animation yourself

Any of Serway's Physics for Scientists & Engineers textbook is great for novices and aspring Scientists/Engineers alike.
**I thought the point of this thread is to suggest books to each other
**So I'll do it anyways: Michael Moore's Stupid White Men is quite a good read atm.

Don't forget to get the essential extensions listed in one of these ff threads! AdBlocker is essential.
AdBlocker?
Is it a seperate ad-blocking program or the default one with ff?
In any note, the default one is sufficient for me.
One more thing: is the upgrade to Version 1.0 of ff good?

I've done the basics of ceramics, though I'm not sure what Crystal Glazing is.
Anything else you inquire?

The trailer looks tasty.
I can't wait for it! Actually, I can. School comes first.
Perhaps I'll watch it in the summer.

e^x=x
in Mathematics
buts thats only for [math]x \in \mathbb{R}[/math] . there might still be a solution where [math']x \in \mathbb{C}[/math]What does the C mean?
[edit]
n/m
Does it mean complex?
