The decimal number above consist of only 1's and 0's to the right of the decimal point . The first 1 is followed by one 0, the second 1 is followed two 0's, the third 1 is followed by three 0's, and so on. What is teh total number of 0's between the 98th and the 101st 1 in this decimal nuber?

I'll appreciate an explanation on how to solve it. Thanks a lot!!

i really need this for school.our teacher asked us and i have to know as many math trivias as i can use because i was hoping to joing a math trivia contest. i tried searchin the net but the trivias are not that cool. you know..just normal..i just need help so badly

If you converting from cubic inches to cubic meters. Do you charge the answer you got for cubic inches into cubic meters? or Do you have to actually charge all the data you used to calalulate inches into meters. Then calaluated into cubic meters?

This is problem one on my worksheet, and all the rest I've found to be easy, so I'm thinking I'm missing something here:

A vertical cylinder fitted with a frictionless piston contains air at 100C The piston has an unknown m and a diameter of .150mm, and the ambient pressure outside the cylinder is 101kPa. If the cylinder volume is 500 liters and the mass of the air is 5kg, what is the piston mass, m?

I calculated the pressure inside the cylinder and it is huge. That means the piston would accelerate upwards. Since the sum of the forces on the piston must equal its mass times acceleration, I used something like (AFTER i had obtained the inner pressure):

p(sys)*a(piston) - p(ambient)*a(piston) - mass(piston)*gravity = mass(piston)*acceleration(piston)

The trouble is, is that i know neither the acceleration or the mass of the piston.

Can someone tell me how to complete the square on an expression that starts with an integer? For example:

6 - 3x - x^2

thanks!

on a predetermined path determined by the geometry of a super sized extra dimension or dimensions? if our universe could be seen as a ripple in this dimension, what would come before and after this ripple? this question was motivated by the depletion in our supply of munchies and someone's anal desire for neatness and order. so don't get too pedantic and hot, just speculate.

if a donkey and a beaver got it on and say they could, would the beaver be the more dominait in the babies or the donky? and could the donevear or beavankey still swim and build damns or would it be a pasture animial and would this creature be able to live of eatting tree bark and leaves or would you think it would eat grass? and what would happen if you fed it a whole lot of marijiuana? would it get the muncies too? sound out, i wanna see how you peolple think and could you help out my donkey beaver genetic reaserch.

I try to keep an open mind with the evolution issue, and there's some fascinating stuff to it. But when we are talking about one skull from a supposed 3.2 million years ago, isn't is, I dunno, a little unsafe for the scientists to just openly state "...she is the origin of mankind"?

I mean, we're talking about a really old skull, that might be a human descendent.... or might just be a monkey's skull. Isn't there a LOT of theorizing and guesswork here, a lot of which could be very wrong? (considering the huge gap in time?)

I'm just not sold, but I'm not weighing in one way or the other. Reading this article, and isn't it somewhat dangerous to just accept that "this is how it happened" and not just leave it in the realm of conjecture? (e.g. "what if...")?

As I understand it (and I am not an expert by any means) the equator is a hypothetical line that separates the north and southern hemispheres.

My question is how 'wide' is the equator and therefore does the area included within this band constitute the north or south?

Just curious an when I was in Africa last year we supposedly 'crossed' the equator.
