ecoli Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Well, how many grams in 1 kilogram? Google "SI measurements" if you're unsure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swansont Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Since when is smart defined as "able to divide by 1000" ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Cuthber Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Actually, I guess it depends on what you mean by "represents". Here in the UK about 9.5 g of some brassy alloy represents a pound. I think the question refers to the fact that, seeing that title, we all want to prove just how smart we are so we answer a question that might otherwise seem too trivial to bother with.

andie Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 lol it is a very easy question... possibly inserted to make everyone feel smart... i know it makes me feel smart:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GutZ Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Since when is smart defined as "able to divide by 1000" ? lol I know it's right there. KILOgram. I think the smart part comes from relating this to relativity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insane_alien Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 well, if you knew the velocity of the copper wrt to the observers frame you could work out the relativistic mass of the coper assuming the 42.7g is the rest mass. or something.

It seems no matter how much we learn, the number of unanswered questions seems constant. Why is that? /Fredrik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sisyphus Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Actually, the more we learn, the greater the number of unanswered questions, because our knowledge shows us new and more specific directions of inquiry. Without any knowledge, the only question you can ask is, "whu..?" It's not really that mysterious a process... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psynapse Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Are they constant? Or increasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredrik Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Yes it's not mysterious, I was mainly trying to be a little funny /Fredrik Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
