Even though it's summer I still have about 10 pages of math each day and 10 pages of language arts. I also have to go swimming for a hour and play piano for 1 hr 30 min.

Do you still have some time with your friends anyway?
 
Choose, as Napoleon said: "Space can be recovered, time cannot"

I don't like this verb at all: "I have to"

You want, you don't have to, who on Earth can force you to be superman?

And, find time to study English: "a hour" (I'm joking)

I still have time with my friends on weekends.
 
That's not a lot. Are at least some of your friends you hang out with girls?

Don't neglect the real values of life. We men are on Earth to procreate. That is our one principal focus; the drive that subtend our every movements. If at 30 you find yourself unable to attract women because of a lack of the basics social skills you're supposed to be learning at your age, you'll end up being frustrated and unhappy. And being about to play Mozart's 5th with a blindfold ain't going to change nothing about that. :wink:

Maybe that doesn't apply to you at all though, I don't know. :smile: But I felt like writting this anyway.
 
TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
Thread 'Variable mass system : water sprayed into a moving container'
Starting with the mass considerations #m(t)# is mass of water #M_{c}# mass of container and #M(t)# mass of total system $$M(t) = M_{C} + m(t)$$ $$\Rightarrow \frac{dM(t)}{dt} = \frac{dm(t)}{dt}$$ $$P_i = Mv + u \, dm$$ $$P_f = (M + dm)(v + dv)$$ $$\Delta P = M \, dv + (v - u) \, dm$$ $$F = \frac{dP}{dt} = M \frac{dv}{dt} + (v - u) \frac{dm}{dt}$$ $$F = u \frac{dm}{dt} = \rho A u^2$$ from conservation of momentum , the cannon recoils with the same force which it applies. $$\quad \frac{dm}{dt}...
