I can't give you a feature of glacial erosion (did the sea instead) but I can give you a feature of marine erosion - A sea cave, arch, stump, stack

What is an amoral person? (I hope I spelt that right)

bluejay14 · 28-10-2009 12:48am

yeah it's from religion (which i hate doing)
It's a person who has no sense of right or wrong and can't tell the difference e.g a person who has a mental disability

An isotope is a different atom of the same chemical element (if that makes sense)e.g. carbon-12 and carbon-13 are isotopes of carbon.

Oh yes, religion! Biggest waste of time ever - I get tests and homework and everything.

Em...
Screening
Filtration
Sanding [actually not sure if this is the right word]
Chlorination
Flouridation

It's screening, sedimentation (a chemical is added to cause particles to clump together and fall to the bottom of the tank), filtration, chlorination, flouridation.

I don't think sedimentation was in my science book...but it's in my locker now with the rest of my books

I'll check the brother's one later. Well, I was close enough.
So what's the question now?

jumpguy · 29-10-2009 9:03pm

That's it. I think you're getting "Sanding" from the fact filtration is passing water through gravel and sand to get out particles.

What is the formula to find the lenght of a line (maths, co-ordinate geometry)? <<< That's actually in the log tables now...ahh you kids are lucky.

I second that completly.. Maybe I should study $:\$

I remember doing them I just don't remember the answers :P Actually its really bad because for question about water treatment I could tell you the colours in the diagram and where I was sitting for it and for this maths one I remember we saw it on the projector in a different room to usual... The crap I remember from it!! :P

Probably wrong.

Yup, that's where I got it from...seriously though, I'm almost positive sedimentation wasn't in my science book, I feel like I'd remember that word...why, oh why did I leave it in my locker?

The brother is asleep now, not a good idea to wake him...do you have Exploring Science? Sorry for going on about it, but this is really annoying me now.

I don't know about the Industrial Revolution, our teacher was out for a month and a sub came in and did that chapter with us so I can't remember a thing from it...I remember something about a steam engine...

Jeez, this is one pointless post! Well, that's what I do

EDIT: I just found what was in my Science book after a quick google - Settling was what was in Exploring Science.

They both mean the same thing.

We had Science Today I remember, big huge yoke of a book. They clearly never thought about how much space it took up in schoolbags and the weight of it. On top of that, about 75% of it wasn't needed - glad it's not a widely used book.

To keep this on topic, if the slope of a line is 1/2, what's the slope of a line perpendicular to this line?

Slow Show · 30-10-2009 2:13am

Oh right, I must be screwed for science :rolleyes:

We haven't done that in Maths, I think...all I remember is the first year stuff with all the formulae.

Exploring Science is fairly big too...I always try to predict what homework we'll get and do it in class so I won't have to carry the book around all day [I always forget when I go to the lockers before last class]...that's probably why I'm so bad at science...

Don't have a clue, but I'd guess 1/2.I remember our last maths teacher going on and on and on about it but no one knew what was going on and if you asked her a question she'd give out to you for not understanding.You could just say one thing wrong and she'd go on for a whole 40 mins while you could have a good old sleep.

Thank god we've got a new teacher now, I don't know how we would have survived her.

If I got that question right here's the next one :
Why has tourism become so popular in the last few years?

No coz perpendicular you turn upside down so my guess is 2/1 but I'm not certain if theres more after that.
People in recent times have more money to spend on discretionary things. Also going away is alot easier in recent times with booking available online and flights bringing you straight to an area. Other areas also have natural and artificul attractions... And so on :P

jumpguy · 30-10-2009 6:18pm

Yeah, and if it's parellel it's the exact same slope (so it'd be 1/2).

Go on with Cookiemonster's question...

I gotta leave the JC forum...

Why do earthquakes occur?

Emma - if you want to get good at French you could go to a French College. Its run by Euro Languages Colleges and its really really good. I went going into 3rd year now and I find I am so ahead of everyone else now. And its actually not that hard to speak French once you get into it and make a bit of an effort. Seriously, you should try it

Earthquakes occur when plates collide.

You're right at the second line. However, you must get y on it's own by dividing across by 2! It's y = mx+c, y is on it's own.

x-2y-3 = 0

y = mx + c

2y = x - 3

Divide by 2 across to get y on it's own now

y = 1/2x - 3/2

m = 1/2

Since there's no question going, give the chemical used and colour change for protein tests (biology, if you've covered that section yet).

Right off my Science test :cool:

giggsy664 · 05-11-2009 12:33am

A solute is what is dissolved
A solvent is what it is dissolved into
A solution is a mixture of both of the above

A concentrated solution is one which can-not have any more solute added to it, and a dilute can have more added.

Hhhmmm...
