Tiblisi. Back to the real subjects, maths physics etc.

For science heads.

Derive the formula for the period of a satellite and explain why its wrong! then state our modern day understanding of orbits.

In german. write out the relative pronoun table.

JC 2K3 · 12-05-2007 3:14pm

s = vt
s = 2(pi)r
2(pi)r/v = t

Fc = mv^2/r
GMm/r^2 = mv^2/r
GM/r = v^2

t^2 = (4(pi)^2(r))/v^2
t^2 = (4(pi)^2(r^3))/GM

It's wrong because it's LC physics.

*Tbilisi

F=Gm1m2/r^2 (Newton's thing of the thing)
F=mOmega^2.r (Centripetal Force)
T=2Pi/Omega (Period)

F=F
Gm1m2/r^2=mOmega^2.r
Gm2/r^2=Omega^2.r
Gm2/r^2=(2Pi/T)^2.r
Gm2/r^3=4Pi^2/T^2
T^2=4r^3pi^2/Gm2
T=root(4r^3pi^2/Gm2)

It's wrong because it assumes a circular orbit, when in fact planetary movement is elliptical?

He was referring to the Munich Conference of 1938. The conference was held so as to prevent the outbreak of the Second World War. As a result of the Conference, most of the Sudetenland was given to Hitler in order to satisfy his demands.

Using passé composé, conjugate the verb 'devoir.'

I think its an example of 'reduction to absurdity'(I can't remember the latin at the moment). If it is it is deliciously clever. Or else Boger was just smashed.:D

Also 'even worse a compass' loving the humour.lol:D

Reductio ad absurdum.
Hehehe, the thread has disintegrated into nothing!

dan719 · 13-05-2007 5:10pm

Well here is an example about boger.

'Will Boger get 600
ill oger et 00
ll ger t o'

Just out of interest boger were you actually meaning to create a 'reductio absurdiem' or am I reading into things far too much as per usual?

Selphie · 13-05-2007 5:11pm

Maybe its like ... a code that we have to figure out.

Education Level
Length of Training
Danger Rate
Tradition (eg legal sector, self employed)
Non-Monetary Benefits
Gender Bias
Innate Talents (eg professional athletes)
Productivity (eg piece-rate workers)
