    Comp Sci Java Tic-Tac-Toe Project: Create a Game with Unique Position Restrictions

    Well I don't know how to or what an array is, but I guess I can look it up. Thanks! :) I'll fix the wrong value thing to loop until the correct value is given. Thank you again :)

    Comp Sci Java Tic-Tac-Toe Project: Create a Game with Unique Position Restrictions

    Homework Statement So, we have a project to make a tic-tac-toe game and for bonus points we can make sure the player(s) can not enter the same position more than once. I can't think of a way to do this. I'm sure I need to use a 'for loop' or a 'while loop'. I am using eclipse to write the...

    Predicting Non-Rigid Body Motion

    Well what I mean is, we have all kinds of formulas for rigid bodies, can we just apply them to a non-rigid or fluid body, or are there different mechanics for non-rigid/fluid bodies?

    Can Copper and Stainless Steel be Separated?

    If you had melted copper into the stainless steel can you then remove the copper?

    Can Copper and Stainless Steel be Separated?

    I heard a rumor from some people at a scrap yard that it's impossible to sepperate copper from stainless steel, and that the copper ruins the stainless steels structual integrety. Is there any truth to this?

    Why is √(x^2)/x not equal to sin(x)?

    Sorry that's what I thought i had...my bad :redface:

    Why is √(x^2)/x not equal to sin(x)?

    This isn't a homework question, but I felt it was appropriate... Proof that √(x^2)/x=sin(x)

    Ski Jump (Conservation of Energy)

    So I got V=D/sqrt(2*h/g) Then plug that into: m*g*H=1/2*m*(D/sqrt(2*h/g))^2 Since H=x+h we get m*g*(x+h)=1/2*m*(D/sqrt(2*h/g))^2 then solve for x giving us: x=((.25*d^2)/h)-h Does that seem correct? I got -2.975? Never mind I forgot to add in the mgh to the end of the equation silly me thanks...

    Ski Jump (Conservation of Energy)

    Homework Statement A skier (m=55.00 kg) starts sliding down from the top of a ski jump with negligible friction and takes off horizontally. (A)If h = 6.80 m and D = 10.20 m, find H.(B)Find her total kinetic energy as she reaches the ground. Homework Equations KEi+PEi=KEf+PEf (law of...

    Down an Incline with Spring: Finding Distance and Maximum Speed

    Homework Statement A 3.5 kg block starts at rest and slides a distance d down a frictionless 28.0° incline, where it runs into a spring. The block slides an additional 21.0 cm before it is brought to rest momentarily by compressing the spring, whose spring constant is 435 N/m. A)What is the...

    What is the final speed of the cork in a spring loaded cork gun?

    Ok. I figured it out!you add the energy from the spring and get this equation: 1/2kx^2=1/2mv^2+1/2ky^2 Where y= the distance the spring travels with the cork i.e. after the equilibrium Then solve for v and get: v=(√(20)*√(.082^2-.04^2))/√(.00376) and you get v=5.22 m/s.
