Undergrad Gravity: push, pull, or does not exist?
Einstein's equation was E=mc^2 i don't see where you get momentum from that. and beatrix this is from your link and that is assuming their velocity is equal to the speed of light. The rest mass is still 0.- Rampantbaboon

Undergrad Does an Object in a Vacuum Accelerate Indefinitely?
the launching of projectiles in space has to do with conservation of momentum. i.e. sending large amounts of molecules out of the back of a spacecraft in order to be sent foreward- Rampantbaboon

Graduate Is there a limit to the validity of laws as the universe expands?
i don't want to debunk your explanation before you give one...how could gravity cause a change in the frequency of light coming from all directions of the universe.- Rampantbaboon

Undergrad Free Fall Acceleration: Better Term?
Armo is a friend of mine...its all in jest. Anyway, its true but not irrelevant. the confusing terminoligy comes about when when people don't get that the gravitational acceleration can still be in the other direction even when an object has 0 velocity. my initial cofusion way back when i still...- Rampantbaboon

Strategies for Determining Solubility and Hydration in Chemistry
Well, if something is considered soluble there are plenty of charts plotting solubility in some unit or another with temperature. Immulcifiers(sp) are usually large molecules with a polar and non-polar part that can dissolve both. Examples are soap for dissolving grease and then being able to be...- Rampantbaboon

Predicting Precipitates: Solubility Rules for Cations and Anions
i don't know how deep into this you are going, but this seems like a trick question from my experience. there was a given amount of HCl and you had to see how much of what compound would form by using the solubility product. although if you havnt touched on that stuff yet i'd be certain your on...- Rampantbaboon

How Do Diamagnetism and Paramagnetism Relate to Lenz's Law?
i forget what lenz's law is. But wouldn't it have to do with the molecular orbital and if the outer orbital of a molecular orbital structure was paired or not.- Rampantbaboon

Interesting new concept car-runs on compressed air
it should probably work the same basic way as a steam engine, as that just heats wather to make compressed water vapor- Rampantbaboon

Graduate Is there a limit to the validity of laws as the universe expands?
WTF?! not only has it been found that the universe is expanding, but it is accelerating OUTWARD! Proove an explanation for that and a nobel prize is yours. anyway...back to the thread. I have no idea about what the expanding universe would have on Newtonian physics.- Rampantbaboon

High School Why Does Hot Air Rise Above Cooler Air?
well, because the weight of the atmosphere causes continous(sp.) pressure increasing as height above sea level decreases, the pressure at any point directly below another point is higher. Because pressure is defined as a force per unit area there is more force on the point below causing a net...- Rampantbaboon

Undergrad Free Fall Acceleration: Better Term?
Armo is a failure. It is just constant gravitaional acceleration. no matter what direction its moving...that the only clarification that's necessary. It might be difficult to grasp the concept of accelerating in the opposite direction of movement. but then there is a general comprehension...- Rampantbaboon

Undergrad Gravity: push, pull, or does not exist?
I have to agree with Armo. A miniscule percent of them have interaction with the Earth as they travel through the entire diamater of it. Using the term interact loosely. They would have a negligible effect on the motion of things in the universe. The shower of protons, electrons, pions, muons...- Rampantbaboon
