Yeah, but in her case it was kind of like "Ew... why are you doing this to yourself?" And I also forgot to say it was during one night of the week, where people (mostly non-engineers) go out to party... But in most cases you're right, when you tell people you're doing some kind of engineering...

I'm doing computer science engineering and we too have to fulfill some humanities requirements that overlap with what humanities students are taking. What I find is that most of the time for us engineering students, these courses are like "breathers" and "grade bumpers." My university is very...

I'm a Computer Science Engineering major and I'm doubting if I'm in the right major... lately I have been struggling a lot with my CS classes and physics... I'm teaching myself acoustic guitar during the little time I have for the past 2 months and a couple of days ago I decided to learn a...

oh yeah, I forgot to declare pos2. But it's because I've compiled my code already and it runs fine. It does not take into account punctuation because I've already dealed with that. I stripped off all non letter characters and got it cleaned up to only contain words and spaces separating each...

Homework Statement Hi, so I have this assignment, more like a project. There are many parts to it. Say there is a C String: "this does not match hi bartay" And I have a Key: "my secret" I need to match the key to a segment in C String that has exactly the same word lengths. In this case...

Homework Statement OK, so in this CS project, we need to make functions for arrays. I need to implement a function that does the following: int subsequence(const string a1[], int n1, const string a2[], int n2); If all n2 elements of a2 appear in a1, consecutively and in the same order...

Oh... ok, I was a bit insecure. thanks

Homework Statement 1) A circuit contains a 10V battery and three resistors in parallel. The resistors have values R1=10ohm, R2=40ohm, R3=50ohm. What is the voltage across each resistor? 2)This time, the 3 resistors in parallel have values R1=10ohm, R2=20ohm, R3=500ohm. The current flowing...

Oh right... After doing the calculations: Q1/7.5=12 Q1=90microC Q2=585microC C2 = (585/12)= 48.75microFarad correct?

Yes, now I figured out, according to the context, that they aren't equal, but I think there are many combinations for q2 and c2 that will make V=12... so I think I should leave them in variables?

Homework Statement A 7.50 F capacitor, C1, is initially connected to a 90.0 V battery and is given a charge Q. The capacitor is disconnected from the battery and then connected to an initially uncharged capacitor, C2. Assume the two capacitors are connected such that the positive plates of...

Homework Statement A charged sphere is suspended by a nonconductive string in a uniform horizontal electric field. The electric field exerts a force on the sphere such that its equilibrium position is diplaced at an angle  = 30° relative to the vertical, as shown in the diagram below. The...

I'm still getting 86.6 I did what I posted: "(0.005*3.35*10^5) + (4186*0.005*(T-0)) = 4186*0.250*(90-T)" I believe 80.38 is correct though. But what are you doing exactly then?

oh heh... so then the final T would be 86.6 which is still not the lowest. So the answer would be C then?

I think it's the specific heat of ice.
