AI Thread Summary
The equations presented, E=\frac{1}{2}W and a=\frac{dt}{t_o \sqrt{1- \frac{v^2}{c^2}}}, are questioned for their validity. The first equation is criticized as nonsensical since energy and work are not equivalent in this context. Additionally, the equation v=\sqrt{da} is deemed incorrect as it misapplies concepts of distance and acceleration. The discussion highlights a misunderstanding of relativity, emphasizing that it does not incorporate distance and acceleration in the manner suggested. Overall, the equations are largely dismissed as incorrect and lacking coherence.

E=\frac{1}{2}W
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Note really sure about that one...

a=\frac{dt}{t_o \sqrt{1- \frac{v^2}{c^2}}
v=\sqrt{da}

Just to see how these fare with you guys(#2 is a play on the relativity equation), and how I'm doing with the 'tex' code.

Whats your point/question ??
 
Those equations don't make sense...energy and work are the same thing, E=1/2W is nonsense. v=sqrt(ad) doesn't make sense either. Relativity doesn't have distance and acceleration in it. I don't know what you did, but its definately wrong.
 

Thread 'The Physics of unloading sand from a barge'

I think it's easist first to watch a short vidio clip I find these videos very relaxing to watch .. I got to thinking is this being done in the most efficient way? The sand has to be suspended in the water to move it to the outlet ... The faster the water , the more turbulance and the sand stays suspended, so it seems to me the rule of thumb is the hose be aimed towards the outlet at all times .. Many times the workers hit the sand directly which will greatly reduce the water...
