    Graduate Decrease in viscosity upon rapid decelleration

    I've played with cornstarch and water before, is that not the opposite of what I'm looking for? Are there any other examples of thixotropic fluids? They seem like what I'm looking for.

    Graduate Decrease in viscosity upon rapid decelleration

    I'm in search of a material that decreases in viscosity with acceleration. In this case, I really mean decelleration, but a change of velocity nonetheless. My questions: 1. Could such a material exist? Does Such a material exist? If so, what is it? 2. Would a material with said properties...

    Mathematica How do I plot a function in Mathematica?

    Thanks! Edit: Gah, replied before I really looked over what you said! Yeah, I know how I should go about plotting a function like that. What I am looking for is something similar to LogPlot, but where the scale of the x-axis can be changed to another function.

    What is this math notation found on the ground?

    Since the original purpose of this thread has been fulfilled, I think it's ok to go ahead and go off-topic for a bit. I'm pretty sure Keanu Reeves is in the "Matrix Trap".

    What is this math notation found on the ground?

    So, It really is just vectors and matrices? I thought maybe there was something else to it. Hrm. Ok then.

    What is this math notation found on the ground?

    So I found this on the ground before I took my ACT this morning: http://imgur.com/a/f9pu0 It doesn't appear to be very difficult, but I don't really know what it is. It's probably pretty simple, I just don't recognize it. If anyone could tell me what this represents, or what type of...

    High School Equal spacing of lights wrapped around a conical Christmas tree

    I was thinking something like: Joe is decorating his christmas tree, he only has one [LENGTH] string of lights. If his tree is [HEIGHT OF TREE] tall, and has a base that is [WIDTH OF BASE] wide, how much space should Joe leave in between each row if he would like to have them spread evenly...
