    The Expanding Universe: Why Stretching is the Only Explanation

    I recently read in my "10th grade" physics textbook that the universes is constantly streaching making solarsystems farther apart, yet for some weird reason all objects still stay intact. This explination included ireverence for such fundimental concepts as the cartisian coordinate system. I...

    Is my book right? it seems wrong

    I guess I should stop listening to my dad ... he was the person that suggested it was wrong;) well anyway I will not doubt any longer I have an evil habit of becoming distrusting with disagreements I hear Tesla was the same way;) wouldn't mind being a little like him

    Is my book right? it seems wrong

    I understand almost everything in the book on first reading. I was getting annoyed because of oversimplifications and poorly placed sections. If the part on cd's had been in the light section that would make sense to me but it was in the sound section. I could write a rather long paper on the...

    Is my book right? it seems wrong

    I gues that makes sense. I'm in 9th grade so it'll be awhile. Qoute: By the way, Hewitt is about the best author for physics at this level. His only errors are those of omission, and then only arguably (since eavery author has to decide where to stop giving information). that is weird because...

    Is my book right? it seems wrong

    I don't get this it seems that the reemition would not always be 180 deg from the cachpoint... http://mysite.verizon.net/res8szeo/homework%20012.jpg http://mysite.verizon.net/res8szeo/homework%20013.jpg http://mysite.verizon.net/res8szeo/homework%20011.jpg

    The section of my physics book on sound makes no sense

    so we distingush between diferent types of light by the wavelength and we distingush between diferent types of sound by the frequency... interesting

    The section of my physics book on sound makes no sense

    I gues my question is if we hear 264 hz as 'c' in all weathers does that mean that on a cold day 'c' will have a diferent wavelength than on a warm day?

    The section of my physics book on sound makes no sense

    ok I am in consepual physics 7th edition by paul g hewit and the sound section makes no sense... It is really badly written ie it tells about media storage but not about sound... ok here is my problem: chapter 18 it says that speed of a wave = frequency * wavelength chapter 19 it says...
