A funnel clouds will be 4 miles east of me in 30 mins and it is heading in our direction. Should we take cover now they turned on the sirens outside already for about 5 minutes. Do we still have a little time or should we take cover now.

Approximately: 282201568539770880000 cubic feet
282 Quintillion (rounded)
weighing
approximately 11288062741590835200 pounds! :-)
11.3 Quintillion (rounded)

I first determined the "approximate" weight of the atmosphere by calculating the average surface area of the earth: surface area = 4 x pi x r^2 = 4 x 3.1415 x (3900^2) = 191128860^2 miles
to square inches
191128860 x 4014489600 (square inches in a square mile) = 767284820729856000 sq/in of earth's surface
x 14.7 lbs (weight of atmosphere per square inch.) = 11279086864728883200 pounds
/ .04 pounds per cubic foot (to get the cubic feet of the atmosphere) *This is an averaged weight from sea level to vacuum of space = 281977171618222080000 cubic feet.

These numbers are slightly different than the ones above due to my use of pi.

I know the current attitude of today's world.Is that we should not judge ourselves,we shouldnt correct ourselves,we shouldnt do anything that indicates that our thinking and action are in err.What God says is exactly what that scripture says.If we would judge ourselves we should not be judged.If we would judge ourselves justly,right and true, we would see that there's something wrong with some of the things we do.When we get to the judgement, where God will judge us,not man, not woman, not anyone in this world, but God Himself.God will not have to judge us as harshly if we would honestly judge ourselves now.

Psalms fourteen:one-The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

I need to be able to figure out the two congruent side lengths of an isosceles triangle. The two figures I will know is the base and the vertex angle. The base is always going to be 1.75. But the vertex angle can change. Its easy to find out the two congruent angles by simply taking 180 - vertex angle and divide by 2. So I now have all three angles, and the base lenght of 1.75.

Now how do I find the lengths of the two congruent sides (I forgot the math since I have been out of school for some many years). If it makes it easier you can cut the Isosceles into 2 right triangles. If you break it into two right triangles I will need to know the math to get the hypotenuse of the right triangle. If it helps you can use the following numbers for the isosceles... Vertex angle = 80, congruent angles = 50, and base is 1.75".

Thanks in advance!!!

We sometimes see movies with people valiantly hanging on during an explosive decompression in a spacecraft. Is that really possible? I want to know how fast the air is moving. It seems that it would be impossible to hang on, and that your lungs would immediately rupture. In any case, my real question is the initial airspeed. Is it 500 kph? 1000 kph? I know it will decrease very fast, depending on the size of the craft, and aperture size will count.

I'm not asking, "was water made of hydrogen & oxygen and was dirt made of rocks & decaying leaves, roots, dead bugs, etc when the dinosaurs were on the Earth?" Of course it was...

What I'm asking is, does the natural biological purification of water return it to its original condition or are there traces of "history" remaining in the water (similar to DNA)?

Is there permanent change to the molecular structure of water?

If there is permanent change, is that beneficial or harmful?

Please explain your reasoning and add sources, if available.

Thank you. ☺
