it's past BSA of marquette going towards marquette mountain theres a trail on the side of the road and it cuts off to the left and theres a buncha hills back there and you go over a hill and back down it and then keep on going straight and you come to a little spot out in the woods, looks like it's quite popular because theres a fire pit and it's pretty sandy like it's been walked around in alot..it's not goose lake because that's on the other side of 480 back past sands planes so if someone would PLEASSEE get back to me with this answer i'de appreciate it and it's not lake superior because that's on the other side of 553...

If we all jumped simultaneously, at the exact same time. Not like 5:00 pm for everyone, but, different time zones for eeryone, but like say, in exactly in 2 minutes, where ever you are.

If the above is true, it proves that Einstein was wrong...something actually does travel faster than the speed of light. And in fact, the speed of light has been proven not to be constant, after all!

I have to do a project in college (Going for Game Software Development) where I need to recreate an old crappy Superman game (Superman 64). I want to impliment the ability to run fast enough to go over water, but I don't know if that speed would be so fast that actually running it would make the game unplayable in a *to-scale* Metroplis.

vaccum can store the energy since there is no medium and the energy cannot be tranferred. why the sun can tranmit heat and energy to the earch if the space is vaccum?

A friend of yours who is a science fiction fan hears you talk about the fact that astronomers now believe that the mechanism for the large energy output of quasars involves a supermassive black hole. He challenges you, saying something like "Oh come on, every science fiction fan knows that nothing, not even light, can escape from a black hole! How can a black hole be an energy source!?" How would you respond to his objection?

For the clever engineers...its obviously to design transistor/amplifier circuits with complex math tools (Spice, matrix equations, etc)

Is there a drastically simpler way to do this?

What I had in mind is a more intuitive approach and just building it up piece by piece without resorting to complex full circuit analysis.

I often see these extremely complex circuits (eg like the inside of an Op Amp) and think, how could I break this up and figure it out in a few minutes without some horrendous difficulty?

What might a simple approach look like? Im not adverse to a little math...but something drastically simpler.

Thanks for any intuitive insights.
