I tried to substitute 1/2T in for T, because 1/2 T is when the ball is at H. With that, I found Vo, which was (H-1/8gT^2)/(1/2T). I plugged in Vo into h=vot+1/2gt^2 and put 1/4 T for t, but I could not get an answer in terms of H

Monthly Cycle numbers Here is the cycle ratio: $$2_{early}:2_{fertile}:1_{late}$$ And the numbers: $$20,000_{early}:20,000_{fertile}:10,000_{late}$$ Now, let's divide the early into 2 groups, pre-fertile, and safe and assume there is a 50/50 split between those 2 groups. Let's also assume...

Hey guys, I'm not sure this is necessarily a physics question, so if it's not I'd appreciate it if someone could point me in the right direction; but here goes. I've been giving some thought to building a wind tunnel lately, I realize this won't be cheap on any large scale, but I just want to...

Hello, I am a bit confused re. solubility calculations. Calculate the solubility of Pb(OH)2 at pH 10. Setting up the expression for Ksp: Ksp = [Pb2+][OH-]2 = 8* 10^-17 (Ksp value from SI chemical data) pOH = 14 - 10 = 4, i.e. [OH-] = 10-4. 8*10-17 = [Pb2+][OH-]2. Solving for [Pb2+] we get...
