    Sugar Water: Homogeneous or Heterogeneous Mixture?

    Ok so starting chem in college and were going over the real basic stuff. Sugar water is classified as a homogeneous mixture, but once water exceeds it's dissolving capacity wouldn't the sugar water be a heterogenous mixture? Or both?

    What Happens to the Limit of x^2sin(x)/(1-cos^2(x)) as x Approaches 0?

    hhahaha wow now i feel like a tard yeah it does idk what my prob was there for some reason it was in my head that it was alim to infinity at the end of the problem

    What Happens to the Limit of x^2sin(x)/(1-cos^2(x)) as x Approaches 0?

    ok so with this split x * x ---- sin(x) without using hopital the x term equals 1 and ur left with an x ---- sin(x)

    What Happens to the Limit of x^2sin(x)/(1-cos^2(x)) as x Approaches 0?

    but what if we split the second function like the first into x over sin(x) times x and then use the limit rule i first referred to and then be just left with the x is there something wrong with doing that? It seems like there must bc it gives a whole different answer but why is doing that wrong

    What Happens to the Limit of x^2sin(x)/(1-cos^2(x)) as x Approaches 0?

    I seem to find a problem with the limit lim(x->0) (x^2sin(x)) ----------- 1-cos^2(x) using the limit as x approaches 0 of x over sine of x equals 1 we can simplify as such (x) * (x) * sin(x) ----- ------ sin(x) sin(x) and this would...

    What is the education system like in your country in general?

    I just made a video on youtube that shows how wonderful and beautiful science and the world can be. If this video gets a decent amount of hits, I will make more, though with actual content. I want to spread my curiosity to others. Please give me your thoughts. Thanks :) I am beginning to tutor...

    Particle Zoo: How Do Particles Sense Each Other?

    I just went to an astronomy this past week and one the lectures pertained to the particle zoo. As the professor began the lecture, he quickly covered the basics and eventually went into explaining how electrons and protons "sensed" the presence of other particles. To do so particles emit...

    Determining the radius of a star

    You are right, I have no idea why I said cylinder, but thanks for the other suggestions. Just last week I went to an astronomy camp and during one of the lecture, the professor introduced the class to rudimentary stellar modeling, namely modelling our own sun using excel. During the lesson we...

    Determining the radius of a star

    I'm working on trying to determine a formula that can model the density of the sun. density: \rho = m/v the volume of a three dimensional figure is b*h therefore: v of cylinder = Area of a circle * h (delta r = h) v=\piR2\Deltar therefore: \rho = (\Deltam)/(\piR2\Deltar) If this...

    Why Can't Objects Exceed the Speed of Light in Space?

    Now do objects actually gain mass or is it just the way it appears due to the acceleration? Also, while understanding that object gain mass and as a result acceleration becomes more and more difficult, but why can it not surpass the speed of light. Is it just a fact of reality such as force of...

    Is Randomness Real or Just Complex Predictability?

    Just to help define what random is Dictionary.com states that it is: "–adjective 1. proceeding, made, or occurring without definite aim, reason, or pattern: the random selection of numbers." But does random truly exist? For example the roll of dice is usually referred to as random, but...

    Exploring Orbital Velocity: Significance and Applications

    Just thinking, I do not know too much about Newtonian mechanics or GR, but does this mean that NM breaks down under extreme conditions?
