Hi everyone, I've recently been bugged by a question I can't seem to find a reasonable answer to. It's about an apparent contradiction between how the wave equation is supposed to evolve in time according to the schrodinger equation and the measurement formalism in QM. Suppose I have any...

lead nitrate? how can i make lead nitrate by easy way>>>>>>>>>> ,,,,,,,,THANKS

is it safe to say that the lead photon emitted from a moving emitter will always be at a distance from the emitter equal to c x time (from when the first photon was emitted) no matter what the emitter does? Also, will the photon emitted at the end of the first second always be at a distance...

http://edition.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/05/14/iraq.torture/ It is said that torture leads to the answers that the torturers want to hear. Could it be that these illegal procedures led to the biggest foreign policy disaster in US history - the invasion of Iraq? Was Cheney determined to torture...

Hi, When the core of a star shrinks during its evolution, does it always lead to the expansion of the star? If not, why? What cases would cause it to expand? Thanks in advance, Maria

Hello, For my lab I was instructed to weigh out 1 gram of Lead Tartrate (PbC4H4O6) and place it into a test tube. I was then told to hold the tube over the lit burner until the lead tartrate was completely black and smoke was no longer forming. I was then told to pour the black powder into...

I got this idea that I could maybe replace the heavy lead acid battery on my motorcycle with a lithium ion polymer battery. I found that you can buy batteries for RC cars that match the power requirements. The lead acid battery is 12 volts, 6Ah. It seams that L.I.P. batteries for RC cars are...

I usually plate lead dioxide on carbon to form my anodes, however, I was wondering if anyone knew why one can't use a lead strip and let electrolysis oxidize the surface to lead dioxide? It is too simple for it not to be used already. But I did make a set of lead acid batteries by just using the...

Lead in the form of -for example- Tetra ethyl lead has long been used as fuel additive, ultimately causing soil pollution. There is concern that this lead ultimately settled in wood during the growing process, which may have led to unacceptable concentrations of lead in wood. So, it would be...

1. Determine the half value thickness, X(1/2) for lead where; I = 0.4 MeV u = 1.59cm^-1 2. using; I = Io e^-ux3. ln(I/Io) = ln(e) -ux ln(2) / -1.59x10^-2 = X(1/2) => X(1/2) = -1.7523m Is that right?

I recently disassembled my Big Screen CRT projection tv. I have been well aware of the danger of the capacitors in CRT TV's and I managed to take the TV apart and remove the capacitors all without killing myself. However, I was doing some more reading online and it seems there is another danger...

Hi, can someone tell me what are the optimum settings for a charger to charge a 24v 12ah Lead Acid Battery? I know that the voltage stays the same. I just need to know what current will cause the faster charging and, at the same time, won't destroy the battery.

Hello, To measure the augmented limb lead voltages aVr, aVl and aVf two resistors of value R are used on the (-) side and a resistance R/2 on the (+) side. Could anyone please explain me what is the purpose of the R/2 resistor. I attached a picture. Thank you

I came across this interesting article to convert a standard lead acid battery into alkaline: http://blog.hasslberger.com/2007/01/how_to_convert_a_lead_acid_bat.html Seems very promising. Not only does the capacity increase slightly, but the battery also withstands deep discharges much...

Hello, I was wondering if someone could help me understand how insoluble lead (II) chloride dissolves in hot water. I know it's probably dependant on temperature, (increase in temperature = increase in solubility) but is it affected by the chemical structure of the compound as well?

First of all, I have to say hello to all of you. I am from a foreign country so my English isn't so good. So my problem will probably seem very funny and easy to you, but it's very hard to me. I've got absolutely no idea about it and I'd be very thankful if you could help me out. So here it is...

I currently have a set up where I have attached a permanant magnet dc motor to a bicycle. The motor is attached through a diode to a 12v regulator and then to a 12v to 240v inverter. Everything works fine and I can power up my devices. But I have been told that if I connect my 12V lead acid...
