In a sense he gave the people of the world the key to the doors of Armageddon. He did not turn the key but he forged it and handed it to the people that had the power to turn his creation into the most destructive force that man has ever controlled, the nuclear bomb.

He lived long enough to witness the destruction that his brain-child brought down on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and saw the tests carried out by the United States, beyond the point of being able to stop it.

Think of what he must have felt...
Think of the guilt.

suppose u r told that the linear size of everything in this universe has been doubled overnight.

Can u test this statement by measuring sizes with a metre stick ?

Can u test it by using the fact that the speed of light is universal constant and has not changed?

What will happen if all the clocks in the universe will aso start running at half the speed.

Ok. If a child was born on a boat, in international waters, where would its technical birthplace be? I'm NOT talking about citizenship, I know it would be whatever the parents are. I mean, what would it say on the birth certificate for birthplace?

the metre is defined as the distance travelled by light in 1 / 299,792,458 th of a second.

why did'nt people choose some easier no. such as 1/300000000 th of a second or why not even 1 second ?

I know that the rise in sea level will be about 7 meters or 21 feet. I also know that this might displace about 20% of the world population and take about 1000 years, but how much land in square miles will be lost due to the risen sea level?

I notice that a solution can be given by x=x(min)+sqrt(-f(xmin))
this is where x(min) is the value of x where the function reaches its minimun value and f(xmin) is the function evaluated in xmin
and sqrt mean the square root of
can anyone turn this into the feneral formula for solving second order equation? (10points in it)
and by the way can anyone quote a demontration for the above?

would it be cold enough to keep your body preserved... with out power or machinery? I want to be buried in space so that I might be found, revived, and have what ever killed me fixed in the future...

how much would this cost?

Antarctica and Australia are clearly stand alone land masses. North America and South America are joined, but can still count as two because Central America is a thin land mass connecting the two. Africa is joined to Europe and Asia in the Middle East, but the Mediterranean Sea separates it from much of Europe, and the Indian Ocean from much of Asia.

If a continent is a large stand-alone land mass, there are four: (1) Antarctica, (2) Australia, (3) the Americas, and (4) Europe-Asia-Africa.

If you say they can be connected by a narrow land mass, there are six: (1) Antarctica, (2) Australia, (3) North America, (3) South America, (5) Africa, and (6) Europe-Asia.

What Separates Europe from Asia?

I don't mean how do you solve it, or look a differential equation up in a book, I mean how do you formulate one from scratch? Please give an example of how you wold do this.
