AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the challenges of colonizing Mars versus the Moon, focusing on terraforming, stability, and communication systems. Key issues include finding a new propulsion system capable of launching over 50 tons and establishing a functioning lab for resource analysis. Participants emphasize the need for a clear understanding of sound wave behavior in different gravitational environments. The conversation highlights the importance of elaborating on the problem to receive effective assistance. Overall, the thread underscores the complexity of space colonization and the necessity for detailed planning and innovative solutions.

Homework Statement



First variables deal with which to colonize a: Mars easier to terraform *or so I've been told* or b: the moon close yet hard to stabilize; the main point of the assignment that i have trouble with is finding a new age propulsion system and a working systems of checks and balances that actualy allows a bio-dome to work undisturbed by all but its self. this presents a problem however. I must make communication lines from the base to Earth and from one base site to another yet also must understand how are sound waves effected by gravity? What is the best new age engine or propulsion system that can get me and over 50 tons into the sky;and lastly how create a functioning lab to analyze and evaluate all the natural resources on the moon/planet.

Without any attempt on your part, we can't help. If you're just stumped on where to begin (though, this seems like a very open-ended question with many right answers if you show your reasoning), then what are some things you already know from class that can help you here? What concepts are relevant here?

It also looks like you haven't quite given the entire problem, but just a synopsis of the part you're stuck on. It's really hard for someone to help without being given the rest of the context.
 
As Moonbear suggested, you need to elaborate on the problem, among other things.

However, going on what you asked, this may help in some way;

TL;DR Summary: cannot find out error in solution proposed. [![question with rate laws][1]][1] Now the rate law for the reaction (i.e reaction rate) can be written as: $$ R= k[N_2O_5] $$ my main question is, WHAT is this reaction equal to? what I mean here is, whether $$k[N_2O_5]= -d[N_2O_5]/dt$$ or is it $$k[N_2O_5]= -1/2 \frac{d}{dt} [N_2O_5] $$ ? The latter seems to be more apt, as the reaction rate must be -1/2 (disappearance rate of N2O5), which adheres to the stoichiometry of the...
I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...
