Graduate Hey, I need a bit of help with a proof, please
Here's the item needing to be proofed (this is not homework, but I'm very interested in it). Show that for each odd prime number y, there is exactly one positive integer x such that x(x+y) is a perfect square. Thanks for any help/leads, etc.. -Steve- Morbid Steve

CD/DVD Burner Not Burning - Troubleshooting Help
Okay, it would appear that I can shove my foot in my mouth. Anttech appears to be correct, as in the burner is unable to find the beginning of the disk.

CD/DVD Burner Not Burning - Troubleshooting Help
This is very much incorrect. "focus or tracking error" refers to an issue with the laser. Use google to find more information.- Morbid Steve

What is the significance of the numerical sequence 11111121113122223222?
It's actually Hexidecimal. I don't know it all by heart, but my -converter- tells me that it decodes into "!1""2"- Morbid Steve

Call me crazy but, I think there might a speed faster than C
But you've got that incorrect. This black whole has mass, and therefore something to 'stop' the light. When you shine light at a brick wall does it keep going? Nope. It's merely stopping and being refracted into -blackness- (black is simply the absence of color).- Morbid Steve

What is the Angular Speed of a Car Wheel?
Yes,as andrewchang said. All you are finding is a speed, which is equivalent to s = d / t (speed equals distance divided by time). In your case, however, you are using degrees. Hope this helped.- Morbid Steve

Forces and wrecking ball Question
But wait up. To pull the ball back in the first place, you have to apply a force greater than the weight of the wrecking ball, no? So, 1240*-9.8 = -12152N And, since you are only applying 5480 N, -12152 + 5480 is -6672 (which would be the force holding the wrecking ball in place (something...- Morbid Steve

Graduate Anybody tried solving Riemann Hypothesis?
If you want a good source for -info- on the Riemann Hypothesis, check http://www.math.ubc.ca/~pugh/RiemannZeta/RiemannZetaLong.html" As I'm not as advanced as I'd like to even be able to read that, I'm 90% sure that's a very good source for the info, as well as the Java Applet :approve: Steve- Morbid Steve

University of Australia Slows Light to 670 mph
The idea of puting the nuclear spin usage into computesr is inegnious. I mean, you think we have fast comptuers now, just think about getting the computations that take several minutes today, take less than a millionth of a second! Shwew!- Morbid Steve
