A light inextensible string is fastened at one end to a point on the ceiling. It then passes under a smooth movable pulley P of mass 4kg, then over a smooth, light fixed pulley. a second particle Q, of mass 6kg, hangs freely from the other end of the string. All parts of the string which are not in contact with the pulleys are vertical.
If P moves up a distance x metres while Q moves down a distance y, explain why y=2x. - ?? why ???
Hence show that the acceleration of Q is twice that of P. - ??? . Find the acceleration of each mass and the tension in the string ...... I don't understand these movable pulley questions at all !

Fie Nay Prithee, John
Do not quarrel man
Let's be merry and
Drink a bout
************************
You're a rogue
You cheated me
I swear before this company
I caren't a farthing, sir, for you
You are so stout!
*******************************
Sir, you lie
I scorn your word
Or any man who wears a sword
For all your huff, who cares a fig
And who cares for you!!!
************************************
It sounds like Sir John!!
Does anyone know who wrote the words?
It says that Purcell wrote the music, and calls it a 'catch' ... but in fact it is a round.

Just in celebration of Shakespeare...

because he owes money and we don't have it to pay. We have only beem married for 4 months and both filing single. Will this effect me? and what will happen if he doesn't file? I was going to file for an extension but it said that all monies owed had to be in by April 17th which is stupid...I mean why else would you file for an extension? I'm just worried. what do we do? He filed his taxes and he was owed like $500 and then it came back and said the IRS rejected it and now he OWES $900. He did it on turbo tax. Thanks!!

music & loud conversation & every once in awhile the lights would turn off.Each time the lights would go out,the place would erupt into cheers.However,when the revelers saw the nun,the room went dead silent.She walked up to the bartender & asked,"May I please use the restroom?"
The bartender replied,"OK,but I should warn you that there is a statue of a man in there wearing only a fig leaf." "Well, in that case I'll just look the other way,"said the nun.So the bartender showed the nun to the back of the restroom.
After a few minutes,she came back out,& the whole place stopped long enough to give the nun a round of applause.She went to the bartender & said,"Sir,I don't understand.Why did they applaud me because I went to the restroom?" "Well, now they know you're one of us,"said the bartender."Would you like a drink?" "But I still don't understand,"said the nun.
"You see," laughed the bartender, "everytime someone lifts the leaf the lights go out.Now,how about that drink?"

My husband and I are about to move into a new home. We are going to be downsizing from 3 bedrooms to 2 and our two daughters will have to share a room. They are ages 3 and 2. The room that they will be sharing is kind of small and I was wondering if they are too young to sleep in bunk beds. They both stay in their beds very well. I just don't know if they are too young and if I should wait at least on more year.

We've been together for 19 months, things have been tough lately. She has become distant etc. Today she told me she is not as serious about us as she used to be, she said she still loves me, but she just doesn;t take things as seriously anymore. Where do we go from here? We are meeting up to talk it through later on - but what can I say? I know one thing for sure...I really don't wanna lose her. Serious answers only pls :)

so sensitive on yahoo answers...............two violations I have had....the first for answering a question with "keep taking the pills". Which is obviously a joke, as I dont know if they take pills or not. The other violation for asking a question that related to a report from Reuters about immigration....

Is it me or are some people in here tooooo sensitive?
