I remember back in the day, my Junior High school had DeepFreeze. It was a piss off as we wanted to mess around with the computers. We managed to disable it put a naked guy with a mullet as the desktop and reenable it so that everytime it booted up the naked mullet guy would be there. Needless to say we weren't allowed using the computers in that room anymore, even though it was never known exactly who did it.
We then had to chop up some firewood to get the one-room schoolhouse up to a comfy 20 degrees, Fahrenheit!
Don't you mean, "up to a comft dickety degrees, Fahrenheit!"
My story begins in Nineteen dickety two. We had to say "dickety" because the Kaiser had stolen our word for "twenty." I chased him down the road but gave up after dickety-six miles...
"If you warm up an electric fire, does it act as a dynamo?"
Different forms of the same thing.
Heat energy doesn't just jump to electrical energy. Energy is the capacity to do work. Electrical energy works, in the case of a battery, by using the potential difference between two metals and harnessing the electromotive forces from it (or electricity can be produced through induction of a magnetic field to a metal).
Heat energy works by having the capacity to move particles around, and for my example, air particles around in a container.
So your electric fire producing a dynamo is rediculous.
"To compress it, you're doing work."
I stand by my hypothetical. I said nothing about compression.
P.S. Just a word of advice: go back to school, you didn't learn enough the first time (or didn't finish).
This is correct I believe. KE for these purposes is heat. Take, for example, a container full of air. Each molecule has it's own kinetic energy. We can measure the average of the molecules' energy by sticking a thermometer into the container and seeing what it says as the molecules collide with it.
Through the laws of entropy the energy will be dispearsed relatively evenly throughout the container. Each collision on the thermometer emparts some of its kinetic energy.
If you take that same container and reduce it to, say, 1/10 of the size without reducing the number of particles in the container then the number of collisions increases, increasing the temperature reading. The energy in the container has become more "dense". However, the amount of energy in the container is exactly the same.
No heat was created.
The energy on Titan would either have to come from the sun, or from Saturn. I'm not sure if the orbit would somehow give some energy to Titan. I don't think it would, but I may be wrong.
Before you post, make sure you know the law of conservation of energy.
This whole discussion is about process though, so I thought it proper to represent a mathematical solution rather than an intuitive one. There's many other ways to solve it aswell.
Didn't Seinfeld already prove this? Elaine being distracted by many... uhh... distractions demanded to rewrite her IQ test because she knew that she could get a better score. With her, the distractions were external, but with stress, the distraction (the fear of failure) comes from within.
I learned that in Goldeneye. I loved Goldeneye. Games these days have ruined it for me though, but I'll always have the memories of my sweet Goldeneye.
How often do equatorial countries get 36C+ temperatures. Stop pretending that you need air conditioners to live. You may say they're poor so they can't afford them. They seem to be not dying from the heat just fine to me. Maybe if you decreased the smog in your city by biking to work you wouldn't have this problem.

Or better yet, get rid of the buses and let them walk uphill both ways through hail, sleet and snow so deep that it's up past their eyebrows.
Wrong "crowd" friend.
V(sound) = 331.4m/s + 0.60m/(s * C) * T(c)
Where V(sound) is the speed of sound, T(c) is the temperature in celcius. [m/(s * C) is metres per second degree celcius]
eg.
If T(c) of air is 25.0 C then
V = 331.4m/s + 15m/s
V = 346m/s

It failed because it was between gens. That's why it doesn't fit into the the PS2/Xbox/GC generation.
Actually the dvorak keyboard is an entirely different layout than the 'qwerty' layout.
...to my acid flashbacks!!! Bye bye holes in my brain. Soon I'll be able to fly my jet again.

Agreed. Horrible translation.
BTW, You are dumb.

This whole discussion is about process though, so I thought it proper to represent a mathematical solution rather than an intuitive one. There's many other ways to solve it aswell.
Simple! Install a giant tinfoil hat.
y=-0.5x+400 and y=0.25x
Find intersection point.
Calculator way: Break out graphing calculator and use a calc function to find the intersect.
Algebra way: Set equations equal, and solve.
-0.5x+400=0.25x
400=0.75x
x=533
when x=533, y=?
y=0.25x
y=0.25(533)
(in head)
y=0.25(500)+0.25(30)+0.25(3)
y=125+7.5+0.75
y=133.25 (actually answer without round can be seen as 133.3333->
Draw your own conclusions about it.
Secondly, smog does make it hot. The denser atmosphere traps sunlight increasing the temperature.
Thirdly, what good would an air condition do outside? Think before you post.
The difference is that I probably do need my heat on in the winter to live. ;)
