One day, Caroline decides to leave her cruel husband and went to stay in a womans reguge close by to Lake Round; so called because it is a perfect circle. However, her husband follows her there . To escape, she takes the only rowing boat and rows to the centre of the lake which is marked with a buoy. Her husband is furious but, knowing she would have to come ashore eventually, decided to wait for her on the edge of the lake. He assumed that because he could run 4 times faster than she could row, it would be simple for him to catch her when she reached the edge of the lake. But Caroline was also giving this some thought. She new she could out-run him when she got ashore so she devised a plan that got her ashore before he could get there.

What was her strategy? You can assume that at all times she new her exact position on the lake.

Relativistic/rest mass of photon in non-vacuum?

A photon has zero rest mass yet positive relativistic mass. This is possible only if v=c. Yet this only holds in vacuum. I can imagine that the energy budget holds if light is seen as waves, but still there should be a solution to this paradox. Is the rest mass positive in non-vacuum?

Charlize Cheron is South African. I call her an African however my Nigerian room-mate says?

you must call her a South African, she is not African. I consider this a racist remark - predudice just because she is white, and as such she can't be identified as an African as any white African's aren't considered 'real' Africans. Your comments
