Ah, makes sense! I would think the thing to find out is how precise your answers need to be. Whether calculations are calculated loosely, and then rounded up for quick mental calculation; or whether they want you to round intermediate to thousandths and then final answers to tenths, etc. Armed...

I don't see any way around cutting the hour into a minute value. 1/60 = 0.1667 (Or however precise you need it.) Then, multiply the total time by that value: 0.01667*54 = 0.9 Finally, you divide your distance by your total time - as per V=D/T 18 miles / 0.9 = 20mph Once you can easily...

Hey there, I was looking to buy a plasma globe as a desk ornament at work. Problem is, I deal with circuit cards and other pieces of electronic equipment. None of us wear ESD bracelets, so the components aren't extremely sensitive. I was just wondering if the globe would emit a strong enough...

I'm taking a college level physics I course right now, and I find it pretty challenging. The actual figuring isn't hard for me. (Unless you have problems with trig, like me. :D) It's deriving the pieces of the equation that proves to be tough. You've got to know the material pretty solid...

Apparently I didn't research very well after all! I guess that's what I get for being gung-ho about the prospect of going back to school and jumping the gun. I took several days to scour the internet at the time, and was only able to find one program from a reputable school that was online. I...
