My wife has place a metal sculpture on an open deck outside of our bedroom. Is it a lightning hazard or is it protected by the house's lightning rod?

In Thermodynamics, Heat and work are path functions. Can you explain how with an example please. I know that path functions depend on the path followed and state functions only on the initial and final states... But what I'm looking for is an explanation. Only serious answers please... Thankyou

What's the answer actually? Zero? Infinity? Undefined?
How do you prove your answer?

How do you check the divisibility of a number by 7,9,11,13,17? Answer if you know atleast one of them. (Ex: Divisiblity by two the no. should end with an even no.)

I'm out of touch from the physics for some years now, I would like to clear my concepts again, is there any site or forum or any type of web resource which would help me do that. Same problem applies on maths too.

Please mention any web resource you can find.

Your help is appreciated.

Thank You.

How do I create and electric shock with a battery, I saw it before where i think a 8v batter had 2 wires connected to it and there was metal clamps on the end snd a remote thingy that controlled how much shock was created ans how many watts were used. Where can i learn to make that for my science fair?

The universe is a big place, therefore probabilty would suggest anything is possible even the impossible, this paradox suits string theory down to a tee. somewhere in the universe is someone or many of you sitting in front of a computer doing exactly what you are doing, at the same time no one except you is sitting in front of a computer reading what you are reading.

As we grow more and more dependent on technology we lose the ability to survive without it. What will happen if we can no longer produce the materials and power required to run our techno-society. This could result from a devastating global war or simply over time as we exhaust our resources and expand our population.

Could any of you survive a nomadic existance? Could you fend for yourselves? Could you fight for your family's survival?

Please share your thoughts.
