    What does the value for 'c' represent in Hooke's Law?

    It is pretty small - I remember hearing that c would be the force required to hold the spring tight, wasn't sure if that was true or not...

    What does the value for 'c' represent in Hooke's Law?

    Hi guys - we did an experiment at college putting some weights on a spring for our Hooke's Law module. When I graph it I get a value for c, in the equation y=mx+c. Is this correct? Will c have a value? Thanks.

    How to convert Gev/c into m/s

    If 1 GeV/c = 5.36 x 10-19 kg-m/s though, why can't I do 25(5.36x10^-19)/particle's mass?

    How to convert Gev/c into m/s

    Thank you for your help Bob S - I still can't manage to get the answer though. When I set m to 5.5208x10^27kg, and p to 25GeV/c I end up getting a value that is faster than c when I solve for v. Can anyone help with this?

    How to convert Gev/c into m/s

    As the title said :) I'm trying to find the velocity of a particle with a momentum of between 23 and 150 GeV/c. I found that 1 GeV/c = 5.36 x 10^-19 kg-m/s, and tried to divide by the mass of the particle - this just game me values between 7m/s and some crazy numbers. What am I doing wrong :(

    Time Dilation Data Sets: Get Graphs & Experiments Results

    Hi guys, I'll start by saying that I've properly looked on Google, and have come up with nothing. I'm looking for a table of data from any experiment that shows time dilation within the data. Just something I can produce a graph from and SHOW the relationship between velocity and time...

    Looking for tables of data - Nuclear/Particle physics

    Hi guys, I am having to write a paper about a topic of interest for my course - I need to include a table with around 100 pieces of data that I will then need to analyse. I've genuinely serached Google, but the truth is, I don't know what data I am looking for. I just don't know what...

    Jupiter-Venus Conjunction: How Often Does It Occur and How Can We Calculate It?

    Hi - just a question about the Jupiter - Venus conjunction that's happening at the moment. How often does it happen that the two planets appear this close in the sky? Or, better, how could I calculate this?

    Can I Use Calculus to Explore the Results of My Bouncing Ball Experiment?

    What can we learn from a bouncing ball experiment?

    Hi guys - recently in college we have done an experiment where we drop a ball from 10 different heights, and recorded the bounce height. Obviously all the results were tabulated, and then a graph produced. It turns out that the graph is linear, and I have worked out y=mx+c, so am able to predict...

    Where Can I Find the First Paper on Cloning?

    or maybe something like one of the most hyped papers in the field?

    Where Can I Find the First Paper on Cloning?

    I'm not getting much success with Google - does anyone know where I could find the first paper on cloning ever written?
