    Now Unk... What's so hard 'bout massive gravitational objects encircling a gravity well?

    I'm sure if Newton could do it, You certainly can!

    Or

    Are you going with Kanada, Dignāga and Dharmakirti, and the incredibly small?

    Are you sure you want to be frank? He seems to freak out a lot ;)

    Bye Unky Dunky, have fun!!

    He's having a go at fixing the "rotary shearing device" tomorrow so cross fingers Crigby fixed it for us haha

    Would be nice to get the lawns actually short again...
    Waiting for the weeds to die, the herbicide we bought take 3 weeks to work :eek:

    Saw the photoshopped pix's, but haven't been back to see what Crigby replied 'bout the weak return spring, If SO needs to make it a little tighter, cut a loop off spring, an bend up a new loop to hook.

    Yay for you j-lo,nothing like a good sleep to feel good.

    All you need now is a jumbo breakfast roll and a large coffee.

    Hi Red and J-Lo! :)

    Hello again Steve!

    I had no problem with the gravity questions, but with the Hooke's Law chapter, which is on elastics, springs, etc. There was a graph of strain against stress, and I forgot what the area under the curve was. I missed another one, about finding the root mean square speed of four molecules, I was getting 147.3 and there were none in the answers. Later, I realised that all the values given were to 2 significant figures, and so was the answer, 150. And, of course, many more.

    I love it!

    Gives me an idea actually.. hmmmm.

    Hey unky... that post just went over my head,but I was wondering what you intended to study and eventually become,work wise?

    It seems you have a great head for maths... please tell me your going to be a rocket scientist!

    Lol! I don't know yet exactly what I'll be doing. I wonder at times why we do study those, if only a small part of them are really going to be useful later on...

    If in 20 years your up on everest and have to do some serious calculations to get a group of siberian husky children to the camp site 2000 feet below,using only a fork and a tea towel... if will def come in handy!

    Me thinks.

    I just happen to read completely your post Steve. You didn't do that, did you? :eek:

    me thinks.

    Well, even there, I doubt that those will come in handy. The more useful part I think would be about thermodynamics, and motion (speed of falling down, etc) Lol! Just saying ;)

    I wouldn't advice throwing siberian husky children off a mountain unky,unless it was in the name of science of course.

    Finding the impact speed, we can estimate the safe landing speed of each child, on the several natural 'platforms' we have, hence getting the work faster ;)

    Excellent deduction sherlock!

    I think he was joking unky.

    But it's a great idea steve.
