The sleep pattern I use that works quite well(for about a month) is 3-4 hours at night, but then 3-4 15 minute power naps(fmpns) during the day. At the end of a semester on when I'm working on a big project I'll start using this sleep pattern. It takes me a day or 3 to adjust but afterwords I'm going pretty much non stop for 20 hours a day. Just have to make sure to schedule the naps. If you miss one it KILLS you.
This could be due to the fact that you loose the whole train of thought thing. I know that when I'm writing a some SQL inner join and left joins and all that crap and take a 20 minute break it KILLS my productivity. Things get even worse if I can't finish up a query and have to take of for, oh lets say, thankgiving and they take the server off line for the weekend. I feel sorry for whomever picks up the bill for my current project.
we will never know if Pi has all numbers equally represented. The DEFINITION of Pi doesn't really allow for us to PROVE the equal distribution. ( that whole INFINITE sum thing)
you don't like the fact that you have to crank up your music so your cd drive doesn't keep your neighbor's awake?
I like my pioneer slot dvd drive cuz I can use it to mix drinks. put one on the case, put in a cd and wala, shaken, not stirred. Now if it'd only read the cds with any concistancy
thermodynamics predicts simple machines to be the most efficient. efficiency is dictated by the energies in a system. as a system becomes more complex, the energy in that system increases, the entropy increases(lost energy), and the efficiency decreases. Damn that thermodynamic identity:
du = t*ds - p*dv + (mu)dN
makes life suck
ahhhh, I mis-understood their usage of charge carrier. I thought of it as what generated the current. I see how it was used. I was thinking in that whole.... protons always carry electrons way. Damn QM(quantum mechanics) course has made me forget almost all the chemistry I knew.
well, except for the fact that in the 'story' for the article it SAYS more like a capacitor. How else can you use photons to generate electricity? I'v taken two upper-level optics courses, two quantum courses, and enough frickin physics classas that I think I'd've heard about another thing a photon can interact with.
A photon hits an electron, exciting the electron to another energy level and then scatters a new photon of a lesser wavelength.
If the charger had an IMMENSE positive charge on one electrode and an immense negetive charge on the other, and also a STRONG high energy photon emitter(prolly well into the ultra-violet or maybe into the radioactive particles); you could excite the electrons enough to get them to cluster on the positive electrode. A insulating barrier could then be introduced inbetween the twe electrodes which would only allow for a current to disipate if the elctrodes were connected. Sounds like a capacitor.
But that's still just speculation(and I still can't type)
Whomever wrote this has little if any clue about the existance of the universe. Either that or they're trying to be vague to keep secrets. It mentions protons being the electron carrier. Hmmm..... where else is a proton the electron carrier? Every metal in the universe. Proton's ALWAYS carry electrons(with the exception of an H+ ion or any other time you completely ionize an element). THe point in that being, they are using electron carrier to confuse you. They may mean differential carrier.
If photons are used to knock electrons off of protons and then a barrier created between the two, it'd ceate one of the largest differentials possible.
But hey, I'm just a physics major.... it doesn't really work in the real world anyways
well, if you used a set of external anteni on the trunk, and sealed the cells in some sort of metal box(to prevent those pesky EMs from escaping) you could effectively eliminate the risk. The intensity of the field drops inverse exponentially with distance so one phone at one foot is only slightly less EM field than 10 phones at 3 feet so if you put the phones in your trunk, (I'll guess 6 feet) it'll be far less EM field than one next to your ear...
I might be stupid on this but wouldn't the easiest way to do this be to set up a router as the machine that connects to the cells? it would allow for 16 separate connections to 16 separate files at whatever rate they connect at AND would work more efficiently than having to split the data then recombobulate it in the right order... of course, I'm no brain
The comparisons of rotational velocities only works in rigid body dynamics(like a spinning sheet of cardboard or something like that.) what you're dealing with here is Gravitational Waves coming out of a massive object(I'll refrain from calling it a black hole cuz it doesn't take one) that affect the objects around them.
Yes, the math does yield infinities, but it doesn't break down. A new technique needs to be created to handle this problem, much like l'hopital's rule came up in Calc I(and later if you ever had to apply anything you learned) Some times it takes a long time to manipulate math til it works. Super Strings(string theory or whatever you wish to call it) is working on new maths to make this work. We'll see what happens
the resolutions would require new sattelites. The Continuous feeds would require either Geostationary sattelites or recieving towers spread out over the earth in a grid covering EVERYTHING... oceans and all.
Okey Dokies all ya'll... Here are the problems I'd like to point out in all the arguments that I'v read: 1. Mass-Energy is constant. How far away you are from a planet has NO affect on your Mass-Energy. I call it mass energy because Mass and Energy are one and the same. 2. G is the universal gravitational constant. g is an approximated value you get if you solve the equation: m1*a=G*m1*m2*r^-2 for acceleration and assume r to be the AVERAGE radius of the earth. If you take account the difference between sea level and the tallest mountain it causes an error facter of ~10^-10. In other words, you're getting screwed by the incorect calibration of the scales more than the wrong g(LITTLE). 3. As this applies to Grand Unified Theory, it doesn't affect the work much at all. All the equations are being worked in variables... much easier to NOT drop a decimal point when you don't need any.

About to catch 4 hours right now.

difference is a magnitude. the difference of 3 and 5 is 2. the difference of 5 and 3 is 2.
Pi is defined as :
sum from n=1 to infinity of [4(-1)^(n+1)]/(2n-1)
look at that for a momonet, Pi is defined dependent on infinity. we just need to prove Infinity is finite to prove that Pi is finite.
then a sphere is just a special name to save us from having to write: "the three demensional circle"
we will never know if Pi has all numbers equally represented. The DEFINITION of Pi doesn't really allow for us to PROVE the equal distribution. ( that whole INFINITE sum thing)
redo that math..... 10 watts is 66% of 15 watts so if you REALLY want to amke the chip look bad it's.
50% slower and only 33% less power consumption
