The conductance of a wire varies directly as the square of the wire's diameter and inversely as its length. Fifty meters of wire with a diameter 2 mm has a conductance of 0.12 ohms. If a wire of the same material has length of 75 m and diameter of 2.5 mm, what is its conductance?

Ok... I am 17 and I have been shaving for about a 2 year now. If i dont shave inside 3-4 days, i start to get stubble... but it grows back quicker in some places than others. For example under then chin more than sideburns etc. I want to grow my sideburns... but the hair grows quicker on one side more than the other! Have any of you fellas got this problem, or how could i mend it (if possible)?

I am afraid that I am a diehard Colonialist but will be unbiased in my opinion here, and expect all answers to do the same.

Of course I am young, and no expert, but as I see it, many (certainly not all) of the African states have gone rapidly downhill since the Europeans, and white Africans, left or were kicked out. I am speaking chiefly in terms of economy and infrastructure.

I am not even sure that the native populations, or whatever the politcally correct term is, have any more freedom now that their rulers are black instead of white European. Corruption, death and brutality are just as high as the old days but added to this the road, rail and air networks have rotted away and schooling and medicinal aid have suffered greatly.

Am I correct in my assumptions, and note I do not claim that the old ways went unflawed- but what can be done to reverse this process once more- realistically? 'Re-Colonisation?!?!?!'

Thanks for all serious and open-minded answers

my brother has been going through really hard times, and it's getting really difficult for him to get over a few hours of good sleep a night. He has this recurring dream about a snake slithering from behind and biting him in the foot. Do you have a clue as for what this means?
He also dreamt he had a scorpion under his nail, and managed to pull it all out ....weird, huh?

My brother has been going out with this girl for about 3 years now, and it looks like its getting pretty serious. god bless his soul, she treats him very good and they seem genuinely in love with each other.

However, I am embarassed for him and am afraid that most of his budget (he doesn't make much money) will be spent on feeding her, expensive dinners, microwave foods, etc. etc. She also will have health problems later in life and he will be burdened if she becomes bed ridden. The girlfriend is about 50lbs overweight, but I think she will balloon up to 500lbs based on her diet (she even eats those hotdogs with the cheese in the middle)

The question is, how do I break them up? I was thinking about framing her by having my friends call and leaving naughty messages. How do I get my brother to dump this fat b*tch and date a skinny hot chick?

I have previously owned a small business, it was very successful but one of our trucks completely died and the other kept needing repairs that the company we leased the truck through was supposed to fix for us. They never fixed the problems so we gave the truck back. Unfortunately now that is considered a repossession and I declared bankruptcy due to never incorporating my business. I have the opportunity to get started again, and I still have my major contract. I can provide additional information to anyone interested. I just don't know where to look. This is my life dream, if i had even 5,000$ last time I could have fixed my truck and never went bankrupt. I want to do this right, and be successful. I am a hard worker and until the problems with that truck my credit was immaculate.

I had one of the wierdest dreams ever last night... I'm not going to into the details but I couldn't figure out how to interpret it. I went to dreammoods, and couldn't really find much. Okay, here are the basic "standouts" in my dream...

I was swimming in a kiddie pool that had a little pond scum and lilly pads in it. It was brown water too, and there was a lochness monster under the water, trying to get me. I think I got away though.

Then, there were strange looking bugs, and I kept trying to kill them. There was a black snail, that had spots on its back that would light up right before it attacked, and a wierd looking crab that bit me before I smooshed it. And the wierdest bug, wasn't really a bug- it was a plastic man's head, with a tophat, and he had spider's legs. I trying to smoosh him with a huge book. Thanks for your help if you read all of this! :)

I always take it at 6am. I set an alarm clock. But now, it's 7:30pm and I'm not sure if I've taken it today or not. Should I take it now?

Last night I went to bed very late and slept till noon. I don't remember if I set the clock or not.

I don't feel particularly depressed now (not worse than everyday), but I've got a strange feeling in my head, and earlier today I was feeling so annoyed at everything in the world (which btw did make sense to some extent).

It's a 75mg capsule.

I thought I v grown up, emotionally,

but I found myself still discriminating PEOPLE according to their looks.

In my office there are two employees,

Suznan has kind hearted looking, I dont konw her personally but it seems to me she is really nice and kind.

Jenny has ugly and naughty looking , I dont know her personally either, but it seems to me she is really picky ,fickle , and mean.

So even though I dont know them well I treat suzan with bigger kindness , I smile to her more often.

Sometimes I cant even stand Jennys face.

Then I realized its wrong, but I cant help it.

Today I asked Jenny a little help but she replied "no" with hysterical voice.

I asked the same help to Suzne ,she replied "yes" with warm smile.

Good Lord, why people act as they look?

my discrimination can be justified?
