    Wondering what Meteorology is about

    Hey everyone, I've been wondering what meteorology is about...especially as a career, and in university. I've always wanted to do computer engineering...just cause I like computers, and figured that's the thing to do...but I heard Meteorology does a lot of weather stuff too, is there anyway I...

    Proofs advice/places to find more practice proofs

    Hey I have 2 quick questions... 1) Any advice for proofs, I am just starting with them, and wondering how I can make good proofs, i know very little about the now :| anything that other people expierienced while starting proofs would be great, (its grade 12 algebra) 2) Anyone know where...

    How do you finish tests faster?

    Thanks a lot for your help guys. Essentially...I didn't study more than an hour for the senior physics exam, and despite knowing almost everything on it...I just didn't go fast enough. Perhaps there just is no way...to slack off anymore. Unless...I find away to write fast... without doing the...

    How do you finish tests faster?

    How do you finish tests faster?

    I went into do my physics exam, it was easy, i knew the material...but then...I ran out of time and was forced to hand in my exam. I feel like someone walked up to me and shot me in the face. I knew the stuff perfectly, but i ran out of time... How do you finish tests faster...?

    What is wrong with my html tables?

    My test website (I am using dreamweaver)http://members.lycos.co.uk/markrules/ is having some table problems. For some reason the longer the right column gets, the more distorted the left column gets, I recall using * a long time ago in the tables height, or something, anyone know what the...

    Why is energy-momentum symmetry important in special relativity?

    Just going back to the previous comments yogi was making... I think that it is important to be always questioning SR, and GR for that matter. If i recall we have yet to unify Relativity, and Quantum mechanics, therefore what we know might just be completely untrue. Did not Newton have...

    Trying to derive the time dilation formula

    Yes, my bad on the formula. Well essentially I'm looking for a secondary way to derive this formula (that doesn't involve any calculus past grade 12 calculus) Is it possible to do another simple derivation of this formula? \Delta t = \frac{\Delta t\'\;}{\sqrt{1- \frac{v^2}{c^2}}}

    What web tools are in demand in 2004?? Hey everyone, I am a skillfull, and sexy computer programmer who has nothing to do this summer, and I am wondering what to code? I hear message boards can make money, but there seems to be many of these in existence. Chat rooms seem to be out of date...

    Does the Michelson-Morley Experiment Support the Constant Speed of Light Theory?

    Ok, please excuse this question if it is pathetic. But I thought light slows down when it changes to more dense surfaces. But then I was told that c was constant... Second, If light stops in a black hole, does it not need to decelerate to stop - or to die for say, wouldn't that involve...

    Engineering Alternative Careers to Engineering :|

    Thats nuts man, but my concern is not moving away, If I am able to find something I truly love, I will pursue it, may that be science, some hot chick, etc. Moving is not a problem, and I think most people would agree... The problem is finding what you like. I like math, therefore I figured...

    Trying to derive the time dilation formula

    Hey everyone, I am doing relativisitc physics right now, and in my notes the following formula was derived. t' = t\sqrt{1- \frac{v^2}{c^2}} they use two main pictures to describe this, http://aci.mta.ca/Courses/Physics/4701/EText/TimeDilation.html they are. I am just wondering if...
