Physics homework

[Blade]

I can do all my physics, I just forget the formula for average velocity. I left my textbook at school by accident, so I can't look it up. Does anyone know what the formula is?

[Blade]

Okay, never mind, I remembered it :lol:

Average velocity = final velocity - initial velocity / time, or v-u/t.

Sorry I couldn't help, I learned this last year and forgot it the following month. :P

Bad blossem j/k

[Phaze]

Yeah. Same here, bl0ss. We learn *****, and just totally forget it like a week later. :P

[Kingox]

I would not be able to help anyway, I hate phisics, Chem is a lot better.

[edwin writer]

What is chem kingox?

[Blade]

Chem = Chemestry, which basically involves things like atoms, the periodic table, chemical equations, etc...

Kingox - I do both Physics and Chemstry, but I like physics better, especially because our whole class is clueless except for me and 2 other guys :lol:

[Krelian]

i loved physics, but i've forgotten most of the formulas. all we ever did though was sit around and debate things like why there are explosion sounds in space in sci fi movies and whether a mirror would reflect lightsabers. heh, good ol' satan.

[Kingox]

I just dont understand physics, which it strange becasue I undertand it all in maths :D

[Blade]

Actually, you would hear explosions in space, because of the particles hitting and making sound.

If I went to physics class more than twice a week *cough* I would have been able to do the projects with my group. But whenever I wasn't there they had fun. I would just come back to watch a movie or do some stupid word search and talk to my teacher. He was very cool, he knew I had been skipping and didn't care as long as I wasn't getting into trouble *weird* and asked us at the end of the year how he was, we all told him to be more stricter, take that this year's class. :w00t:

well, since space isn't really a complete vaccuum, i suppose there would be a little sound, but sound waves require a substance to travel through, hence no sound would travel through a vaccuum.

another thought, why do people in the movies have to lead their shots if they're shooting lasers (which by definition would travel at the speed of light)?

I heard that the particles from an explosion in space that actually hit you cause some sound...

They lead their shots because they are idiots :lol:

[Krelian]

hmm... i suppose the particles hitting a space ship or whatever would cause some sound inside the space ship, though i doubt it'd sound like an explosion. still, perhaps you're right.

I remember we were being taught about laser classes (1, 2 and 3 or whatever) when this guy puts up his hand and says "Sir, what class is a lightsabre?" :lol:

Whenever we start a conversation with the teacher in physics we usually end up at nuclear winter, unless one of us comes up with some kind of gizmo to prevent it... stirring stuff.

I took Chemistry and Physics, which in hindsight may have been a bit silly seeing as my Mum is a biology teacher :blush: Plus we have 21 equations to memorise before our Standard grades and I've lost the sheet :doh:

[mantoro]

;) biology rules

[Kingox]

Yeah, maybe, but this thread is about physics :lol:

Biology was the only science subject I didn't take, I can't stand the sight of blood, and I don't exactly desire the idea of slicing up animal parts.

[Kingox]

Thats the best part :lol:

[bl0ss0m]

I never got to slice up anything.. well actually I did to a chicken.. it was tasty. :D

[Blade]

lol, Jazmella from Hitmanforum would not approve of that inhumane attitude :lol:

[Kingox]

:lol: lol, That only thing I ever did was a cows eye, I was not at school when we did a sheeps heart :lol:

[edwin writer]

I would like to get into chem and physcis but biolgy sucks! :thumbdown:
