I read that calcium citrate can be used to treat acidosis, thus when the blood pH shifts just a bit too much to the left.
a) calcium citrate is the salt of citric acid. It doesn't seem to work as an antacid. Why does it work to raise pH in the blood then if it's not a base as such?
b) is...
Hello,
I'm trying to solve a combination problem and am uncertain what kind of combination exercise this is. It's not school work, but something I came across in my free time, and I'm somewhat stuck...
I have three pots, each with 20 balls.
I want to create all combinations possible by...
Homework Statement
a logarithmic spiral is given. The center lies on the x-axis. after a turn of 180 degrees counterclockwise I am 86.23m away from the starting point, after 360 degrees I'm 75.41m away from the start (radius, not along the spiral). Where am I after I walked exactly 3km along...
Thanks a lot for all your answers. I just looked through the two articles linked above again. one of them mentions:
"Analyses of air and soil samples showed that contamination caused by Koshkar-Ata is below the average world level (1.15 - 0.20 Roentgen). Meanwhile, a real danger is being posed...
Not sure if this is the right forum, please move if a more appropriate forum exists.
Even after Fukoshina I'm not quite sure what to make of radioactivity, how to read levels or radiation and what the danger is of getting sick.
Below are two small articles about the Aktau area in western...
No homework, just a problem I'm faced with at work. And being the granny I am, this is ages ago since I solved anything like this.
x/36-x = 12/36-12 + 3.013/0.20(36-3.013)
The solution to this is 17.6. The question is: how do I solve such equations for x? If I ignore the 36 on the left...
I'm almost a bit ashamed to ask, but for some reason I'm stuck. Being a bit thick today I guess.
Given is an empirical relationship
A = 1.27*B^0.45
A = given. Say 2.5
What is B?
For some reason, if I take a random but plausible B and calculate A, I get a different result then when I...
Hello,
for a game with friends I'm trying to determine a plausible geographical centre of a small country where I will hide a treasure. My friends will need to recreate the steps I took, finding the instructions by means of a puzzle and finally receive a set of GPS coordinates, go there, find...
Hello,
I've had an intro economics course recently and there are still a couple of questions unanswered.
One of the examples given where a handfull of projects with an initial investment and positive cash flows the following years. The question was which project is preferable when looking...
Hello,
I'm in search for books dealing with topics within sciences that I can read and understand without being a specialist in that field of research. The area doesn't really matter as long as it's well written and the topic explained in an interesting way.
So far I only read
Fermat's...
Hi all,
I once read an article about a sort of matrix theory: that we are only a computer simulation which a supercumputer runs in the future to let the people experience there what the past was like. Does that ring a bell to anyone? I really need this article again but am not sure what...
Hmmm, just realized this thread would fit better in here.. so here we go again...
Hi all,
I'm trying to find some examples of reductionism vs holistic examples within Earth sciences. Can someone give me a few hints? I already checked georef and similar, but the few hits I found only let to...
reductionism vs holism
Hi all,
I'm trying to find some examples of reductionism vs holistic examples within Earth sciences. Can someone give me a few hints? I already checked georef and similar, but the few hits I found only let to articles which required much more reading to fully...
I guess this might be something chemical.
About 2 weeks ago my boyfriend and me were driving somewhere. Suddenly he screemed out, saying his leg was burning. On the next parking place we noticed a red mark on his leg approximately the size of his zippo lighter, which was in his pocket right...
