Well I was more of wanting to know the effects on Earth if our moon had a moon about 1/8 it's size, or to go a little bigger; to be about 1/4 it's size. It's an interesting notion to me. As far as the Earth orbiting the moon, I realize that the theory is not even plausible in current physics...
I started pondering random thoughts earlier today and this was one of them; what is the force of gravity between a proton and electron in a hydrogen atom? Using the equation to find this force (F = G\frac{}m_{}1 * m_{}2{}r^{}2) I came up with my answer. However I wanted to ensure that my math...
This is a question I have been pondering for quite some time. I haven't done much research on the matter but I can't find any theories, hypotheses, or explanations of this matter. So I calculate that the best route to take would be to ask those who know about the topic better than myself. I am a...
Okay well I'm not wanting it that realistic really, I mean I want the rate of change to be realistically based on movement (like say friction or extreme pressure) for a perfect example you can't start a fire under water, so in the level that is water based the player's temperature grows colder...
Can someone explain the following formula to me? I would like to know what m, kg, and s are. At glance I believe this is the cross product of 6.67384 and the other half of the formula. However I am very unsure on how to continue into solving this for any specific value. I believe m is for the...
I'm a game developer and I have an idea to make something heat up and cool off and I would like to use realistic style formulas to do the math. Instead of making it add dramatically over time. I basically need a formula for adding and removing heat from a 2 dimensional vector based on...
No this isn't homework; but as I read in the description of the formula that was given is that x was to be a variable in my computed method to represent the location of the object? But at the same time I thought the description given was a little more like Newton's Second Law. I'm new to the...
I'm not understanding the following formula. I'm a computer programmer and was given a set of formulas to have an application to solve; however I'm not completely understanding how this works. I'm just looking for a step by step way to solve this and an explanation on why there are 3 assignment...
