My friends new girl friend said she has a major in physics. She only bartends, and when asked why she doesnt do something with her college degree, she says she makes more money bartending. Ive seen where she bartends, it is not a richy place by any means, its more a gothic bar. I think she is full of ****......whats your opinion??

How much would it cost to build a building like the pantheon today? A building with 75 foot high ceilings and a 150 foot dome all made out of stone? I tried to find the cost of other buildings to compare it to, but all I could really find a price on was the Taj Mahal.

From the source I had the Taj Mahal would cost around 500 million dollars. Not that 500 million dollars is cheap, I just thought something like that would cast far more than 500 million dollars.

So does anyone know how you could even aquire the knowledge to make an educated guess at home much a building like the pantheon would cost? I would guess it would cast far more than a modern football stadium, but I don't really know too much about this subject.

If anyone could tell me about how much something like this would cost and how I could find out something like this, that would be great.

Thank you for your time.

The boiling point of water is 100*C. Had it been so, the water evaporated from the sea water would also have had the temperature of 100*C during day time (as it continuously evaporates during day time). But I can very easily play and swim in sea water which is not posibble to do at a temperature of 100*C. Explain this phenomena.

All right, this one has me a little stumped.

There's a parallelogram ABCD. Let point E be the intersection of the diagonals.

Angle AED is 60 degrees.
Angle BAE is 40 degrees.

Is it possible to find Angle CBD, and if so, can someone tell me how?

Thanks!

P.S. This is not homework, just a problem I found on the net, but there's no answer provided :(

What I mean is: Which region of the world has mountains, deserts, forests, snow regions, etc. in the smallest area possible? I know, for example, that California has all those features within its boundaries, but is there a smaller place that features them all?

Hurricane season is here. I live on the MS Gulf Coast. We were badly affected by Katrina. During the past year there has been so many kind people who have come to help the people in the affected area. I just wanted to thank everyone. It really makes you feel good to see all the people that still care in the world. I didn't need the help thankfully but there are so many that did and still do.

Do you have a story to tell? Know of any kinds acts?

This is just an idea that I had that probably has many scientific flaws in it, but just thought if there were any chemistry majors out there, they could help me to answer this question. Liquid oxygen is extremely cold. I had an idea about using it to cool off large areas of ocean that a hurricane would immediately pass through, and as the oxygen dissipated, it could possibly help somewhat with the depletion of the ozone layer by adding oxygen to the atmosphere. I know this sounds like a simplified idea, and it is. Understand that I am an extreme novice with an idea.

Here are some of my concerns:

Would liquid oxygen dissipate too quickly to cool off large areas of water? Would the churning of the ocean just bring warm waters quickly to the surface and negate the liquid oxygen? How much liquid oxygen would it take? Is it possible to make this much? How could it be delivered to an area in mass quantities?

Just an idea. Wanted to see if this has any merit whatsoever.

Like what would it do for us that ordinary trig wouldn't do? Does it simply let us work out angles on non-right-angled-triangles? Wouldn't sine rules be enough for that?

I'm writing a book and want to put in a map of the South East of England to show where Folkestone is. I also want a map of Folkestone to show where a specific part of Folkestone is (Copt Point). I doubt I'll sell many copies of my book though, so I don't want to pay loads for the right to put a couple of maps in it. So does anyone know where to find a map that you don't have to pay to use and won't get sued for using. Thanks

Even in big shopping places free blood pressure systems take your pressure in a cuff which slowly squeezes around your arm and within a minute the numbers show out stating the low and high blood pressure at the time . What is the Physics involved ?
