/sqt/ Stupid Question Thread

I have a first class ( 4.0 equivalent ) degree in physics from a top 20 UK university, what are my chances of getting a graduate scheme in a decent US university?

Yes essentially. Dino bones were conserved in fossils or peat bogs.

What computer science jobs are well payed, exiting and rich in variety?

Because the word dinosaur designates a much larger group than the word homo.

Hey guys, how the fuck do I do equations like c) and d)[first ones] and to simplify a~e? Do you guys know any book or place I can read how to do them? I'm really bad at equations that have squares and any book that I have read only teach the simple ones that is easy as fuck but then give exercises that I have no fuck idea how to do them.

You only need the laws of square roots and apply them till you get the answer.

c) and d) are solved by knowing that sqrt(a*b)=sqrt(a)*sqrt(b) (this is also true for an arbitrary root)

Most of it comes down to intuition and that is nothing any book can teach you.

I might just be brainfarting here, but it's regarding a physics problem I was doing the other day:

I had car A and B a distance x apart. Each moving with different velocities and different acceleration towards eachother.
Could the time until collision be modelled as a single car moving with speed and acceleration equal to the sum to that of the two seperate cars(as if they were moving the same direction) a distance x until it hits a wall?

Is there a character that could even possibly EVEN TOUCH Madara Uchiha? Let alone defeat him. And I'm not talking about Edo Tensei Uchiha Madara. I'm not talking about Gedou Rinne Tensei Uchiha Madara either. I’m also not talking about Kono Yo no Kyūseishu Futarime no Rikudō Juubi Jinchuuriki Gedou Rinne Tensei Uchiha Madara with the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan (which is capable of Enton Amaterasu, Izanagi, Izanami and the Tsyukuyomi Genjutsu), his two original Rinnegan (which grant him Chikushōdō, Shuradō, Tendō, Ningendō, Jigokudō, Gakidō, Gedō, Banshō Ten’in, Chibaku Tensei, Shinra Tensei, Tengai Shinsei and Banbutsu Sōzō) and a third Tomoe Rinnegan on his forehead, capable of using Katon, Fūton, Raiton, Doton, Suiton, Mokuton, Ranton, Inton, Yōton and even Onmyōton Jutsu, equipped with his Gunbai(capable of using Uchihagaeshi) and a Shakujō because he is a master in kenjutsu and taijutsu, a perfect Susano’o (that can use Yasaka no Magatama ), control of both the Juubi and the Gedou Mazou, with Hashirama Senju’s DNA and face implanted on his chest, his four Rinbo Hengoku Clones guarding him and nine Gudōdama floating behind him AFTER he absorbed Senjutsu from the First Hokage, entered Rikudō Senjutsu Mode, cast Mugen Tsukuyomi on everybody and used Shin: Jukai Kōtan so he can use their Chakra while they are under Genjutsu. I'm talking about sagemode sage of the six paths Juubi Jinchuuriki Gedou Rinne Tensei Legendary Super Saiyan 4 Uchiha Madara with the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, Rinnegan, Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, and Geass doujutsus, equipped with his Shining Trapezohedron while casting Super Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann as his Susanoo, having become the original vampire after having absorbed Alucard as well as a God Hand, able to tap into the speedforce, wearing the Kamen Rider Black RX suit, with Kryptonian DNA implanted in him and having eaten Popeye's spinach while possessing quantum powers like Dr. Manhattan and having mastered Hokuto Shinken.

Yes in classical physics this is definitely possible. Just solve for the equation of motion of each car, then the difference between the two functions is the distance between the two cars. This can then be differentiated to get the velocity and acceleration of the new car traveling toward a wall. It gets more complicated at high speeds and high accelerations because relativity needs to be taken into account, and each car will have their own perspective that may not agree with the other about what they are "feeling" during the motion.

Volume: It's a cylinder, so use the formula [math]V=\pi r^2 h.[/math]

Density: Divide the mass by the volume.
