    Solve Another Weird Problem: Calculate Specific Heat Capacity

    Thanks so very much with the help you gave me. I am truly grateful. By the way, here's another weird problem: A sample of with a mass of 250.g is heated to 130. degrees celcius, and dropped into 425g of H2O at 26.0 degrees C. The final temp. of the H2O is 38.4 degrees C. What is the...

    Parallel Dimensions: Is it Possible?

    Is it possible for there to be other planes or dimensions parallel (or not paralell) to ours? If so, are they infinate in number, or what? If anyone has any information on this subject, I would greatly appreciate it!

    Generating of light/energy from the dissassemblement of molecular bonds

    Is it possible to transform organic matter into light, by breaking the molecular structure, then re-asssemble it into its' original form? Is it possible to transform kinetic energy into light?
