I've been at this dang problem for 4-5 hours now. Still can't understand how to do it. Anyone have any hints or pointers of where to begin, or what to do?? A physics student playing with an air hockey table (a frictionless surface) finds that if she gives the puck a velocity of 3.82 m/s...

I've heard that there's a periodic tables of particles, I've searched the net but have yielded little results. Is it still in the works? or is it out yet?

Does anyone have any interesting or easy ways to memorize the first, oh, 10 to 40 or so elements (only including the names and the abbv.)? thanks

I have trouble understanding the MEANING of each question... How many ways are there of picking out the name ELLE from the following table by moving from each letter to an adjacent letter ( up or down, left or right, and diagonal steps are allowed, but the same must not be used twice in one...

I need a large table of Laplace transforms, do you know any good ones? Format HTML, Pdf, Ps, Latex or Word (?) Extra question: what is the Laplace transform of a Gaussian (normal distribution), with mean m and standard deviation s (assume equal to zero for t<0)?

Can someone point me in the direction of a table with a lot of specific heats and latent heats (fusion, condensation). I want a good comprehensive one for reference, and I also want to find some data on some more dificult to find substances. all I can find so far are small tables with just a...

If you have a molecule with several elements, how do you figure out how many atoms of each element are in it?

On http://elasticity2.tripod.com/ I have replaced all previous work with a table showing tha structural relationship between fundamental particles. (Muon and Tau will be included when I have changed the scale of current work tables). I show that there are only three fundamental particles, each...

On The Pool Table ... At the break where is the greatest velocity of the cue ball? At the instant it comes off the stick or the moment it hits the balls? The question here is is it better to shoot the cue ball at the line or to pull the cue ball back and increase the distance to the...

Hi! Does anyone know if there is a periodic table trend for the value of dipole moments...I tried looking it up on the internet and I haven't had any luck maybe someone in here knows..if you do please help! Thanks in advance!

While searching on google i came across with this very intersting periodic table where you can actually see photos of most of the elements (i hope this hasn´t been posted before). It´s called "The Wooden Periodic Table Table" and it´s maintained by one of the founders of Wolfram Research...

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone could post a link to a page for a better arrangement of elements on the Periodic Table or if not, could give me an example of what a custom arrangement should look like ? Thank you in advance

for a table on a rough surface, if i give it a push, it would slide for a distance then topple over..what cause it to topple over? why the friction would not just stop the table from moving??

Does anyone know of an authoritative online source which gives a complete table of particle lifetimes? Thanks Pete

I was once taught that we can calculate a small but non-zero probability for "quantum leaps" for things like atoms. I have tried to review this question within the context of gas molecules and for solids, but alas, I suspect my proficiency ends with very simple models. So first is this...

Along with the nuclear atom article I have posted a unique version of the periodic table. A must see. Notice the center column of semimetals and the overall symmetry. Can be seen at [PLAIN]www.svcc.edu/~duncanb/[/URL]
