Medical Psych: mental condition re flow of time
It's called regression. Where someone relives the past. In it's worse form, someone whom has lost a love one, will seek them. To where it's known by those around.- delta_moment

Does one computer using maximum bandwidth affect other computers on a network?
Yeah, the token use is. Not secure enough. But, where peer-to-peer observation/computation is necessary, other protocols are used. As in Research and Development. Any physical peer-to-peer network, just about, will take into account what it can. Where power is a must.- delta_moment

Does one computer using maximum bandwidth affect other computers on a network?
Depends, A Ring Network is piece-wise, and none can influence the max_rate of another. End-to-End is dominated by throughput. Whereas, common in connectivity, parallel, then it would be affected. This is due to the adapter-hub interface. Where the hub has to check-balance all transfers.- delta_moment

Best all time mathematicians/physicists.
Michael Faraday and Charles Coulomb influenced some of my aspects of studies. Many of the others I've seen readily mentioned have also. The Farad is such a fun quantitative unit.- delta_moment

Mechanics & Statics book - Need Suggestions
Yeah, I didn't like my book either. amazon.com has some listed, and this one popped up: https://www.amazon.com/dp/0471406465/?tag=pfamazon01-20 They seem to be expensive compared to the one I used. But it was poorly written, and quite thin. You might want to find a library that shelves some...- delta_moment

Undergrad Does gravity apply at very short distances?
You want to dabble at stellar activity. SOHO's data is interesting. Once thought to induce fission, super-mass now thought to induce fusion. But, I'd speculate there are other activities as well. Somewhere, along the way, instead of tending to stay at rest. A star is born. Then you've got...- delta_moment

Why Does My C Program Skip Input Fields?
Could be your compiler, or configuration, or platform. You may have to point the gets statement at the std. input. I don't know. There's so many variables these days. From looking at the code in the latter post, the problem appears when you combine scanf and gets. I'd just say you're...- delta_moment

So I joined the Navy to be a Nuke.
Yeah, the nano-threading would have been my choice. What with so many new interests. As, far as Navy Nuclear Engineering, I've awared myself of it, a little. And, I do know not to ever create a 'Breach of Trust'. It's along the lines of speculative cast of knowledge, and will lead to...- delta_moment

High School Is Dark Matter a solid, gas or liquid?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_energy#Nature_of_dark_energy covers it somewhat, but there again I'm not that familiar with it. It says that the Dark Energy interacts through gravity, but of course it is not clearly defined. As of yet. And, since there both hard to detect; right now...- delta_moment

Why Does My C Program Skip Input Fields?
Yeah, the above post got it. puts, and gets are intrinsic functions, and unless you put a mechanism to pause the compiler will code in the next lines of instruction for the machine to operate. scanf, which normally interprets from the terminal, will automatically pause for input. It's part of...- delta_moment

High School Can a *gas* be visible to the naked eye?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_of_vaporization is among the info on steam. in it... "...to transform a given quantity of a substance into a gas..." Everything I know of steam dictates it's a gas. Not what the temperature is, although that does indicate you shouldn't handle it. I...- delta_moment

Do Gases Expand Indefinitely in High School Chemistry?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_gas_law PV=nRT --> V=nRT/P If pressure of the expanse were essentially 0 compared to the gas in question, you'd get infinity. It's called Diffusion. The article on the Ideal Gas Law is interesting, and should provide some insight.- delta_moment

High School Is Dark Matter a solid, gas or liquid?
Jury's still out on that one...as far as I've looked into it. The theory I think most plausible is that it's a reaction created by dark energy on matter. That creates a discernible pattern of affect. It's changed so much from what I once studied, and I don't try to keep up. As, many...- delta_moment

High School Can a *gas* be visible to the naked eye?
Perhaps an objective lesson in the qualities of the 3 common states of matter: http://www.chem.purdue.edu/gchelp/atoms/states.html Where gaseous forms tend the general nature the 'dance' is around of: 1)compressible 2)flows easily Whereas liquids don't tend to compress well.
