I've seen that version too but it works with the sticky sides facing as well which is questioning part. If you have tape you can try it for your self.

There's a popular experiment where you get two pieces of Scotch tape and label one top and one bottom. You attach them together on their sticky sides and then pull them apart and they will attract showing that you can get static electricity without friction. Anyhow, when I thought about it I had...

Ok, so I'm merely a high school student but I have a fair amount of physics and (non-mathematical) quantum physics down. My question has to do with entanglement and teleportation. I have a fairly low understanding of entanglement however I have heard news of teleporting being done (on a small...

I am expected to solve by completing the square but I do know enough calculus to get by with this type of question. I want to know if my answer sounds about right. I ended up taking A_{Square}=L^{2} and A_{Rectangle}=LW I solved for W algebraically then substituted it in...

I'm in grade 10 supposedly studying grade 10 math. I'm in enriched though so my teacher likes to throw stuff she never though us on our assignments. I know a little about derivatives and limits but that's all self-learning and I wouldn't much trust it >.<

Ok, at this point i solved for L: L(rectangle)=10-4/3L(square) Now I have converted A(rectangle) to be in terms of L(square) Since we have basically eliminated L(rectangle) I'm just going to use "L" which means L(Square) A_{Rectangle}=\frac{800}{9}L^{2}-\frac{40}{3}L+50 Edit: Took the...

Homework Statement Ok, the problem is you have a 30cm wire, you cut it in two and you make one into a square. The second part is a rectangle with a 2:1 side ratio. I need to find the perimeter of each of the two shapes if the outcome sum of areas were to be a minimum. The Attempt at a...

Well, that basically outlines why I don't want to be a doctor. I would spend all of my time pleasing other people and that would not really be something I would like to do but then again I enjoy the study of medicine and biology. I guess my question at first was more like if anyone knows any...

Well, I'm not saying I would choose a career because of the income. But it obviously has to be a factor in the decision.

Just to clarify there is no standard model of the origin of life yet. Free to be discovered.

Ill start with your second question because it's a little bit simpler. The pattern for electron shells is 2, 8, 18, 32, 32, 18, 8 really you only need to know the first 3 or so for basic use because they don't always fill shells before they go into the next. For example element 20 is calcium...

Simply put: Some substances hold their electrons closely Some substances hold their electrons loosely The reason falls back to the electron arrangements of the compound or element, electrons like to be in discrete shells. If an atom has a full inner shell and 1 valence electron (electrons on the...

Well basically, the title sums my question. When you look at a light bulb (generally works on incandescent bulbs) you can see rays coming from a few directions out from the light, it generally doesn't work on fluorescent light to my knowledge and i would like to know what causes you to see the...

Well, I am a high school student who does well in sciences and math. I have respectable non-curriculum knowledge of both biology and physics and generally get marks in the order of 96%+ in the two. I know i want to work a job in sciences and my family wants me to work as a doctor. I think being...
