To attain the maximum range, a projectile has to be launched at 45 degrees if the landing spot and the launch spot are at the same height (neglecting air-resistance effects). Explain how the relation between the vertical and the horizontal components of the initial velocity affects the projectile range.

I have been anxious for years. Ive been prescribed zoloft a long time ago and it did absolutley nothing for me. I stoped and tried to go med free. Recently i've noticed I havn't been doing things I would usually do because of the thought "What If" stuck in my head. My doctor prescribed a medication named "Escitalopram aka Lexapro". I am very nervous trying a drug that affects my brain. I feel like god forbid I take it and go crazy and end up in a mental home. I have heard good and bad things about this drug, I heard people go crazy, and I also heard good stories. When I was a 13 I took "Ritalin" for ADHD and had a seizure. I stoped! Doctors say it was from going through puberty, not the Ritalin. I NEVER have seizures, but ive been scared to try anything else. Now im sitting here with this SSRI hesitating to take it because of all these crazy thoughts in my head. Im healthy and i just want my life back. Someone please help, Is this a "OK" drug to be on? Im to scared about everything. Help

What do you find that is similar between the location of volcanoes and the location of earthquakes?



What type of volcanic eruptions seem to occur most often "where plates are crunching together"?



What type of volcanic eruptions seem to occur most often where plates are coming apart or in the middle of a plate"?



Tectonic plates are either oceanic crust or continental crust and when plates collide there are three possible collision scenarios. What are they?

Gravity is not perfect. As far as I understand, some particles are constantly lost to space.

Ok, back in my high school Chemistry course, I was introduced to this rediculous blind speculation called String Theory. See the link below if you need more information on the "theory" itself. It's interesting to note that this "theory" is not only completely untestable, unsupported by any solid evidence, and basically a huge load of crap that some "geniuses" pulled out of their "hats", but there really isn't any foreseeable way for this to ever be tested in the future. How is this science? Who got paid to come up with this junk? Is anybody actually buying it? Who had the nerve to label it a scientific theory and encourage teachers to cover it in class?

I heard it will take sooo long for humanity to reach any habitable place that it is simply impossible. Also, If they wanted to go really fast, their space-craft would melt because of the speed. So is humanity doomed to be dead in 1 mil years one way or another?

In chemistry today, we did a flame test. For the lab report conclusion, there are a few questions that I do not know the answer to. If you can help with any of them, that would be greatly appreciated.

1. Explain the reason potassium was visible when using the cobalt glass.

2. Explain the effect of the nitrate ion in solution on the color emission.

3. Give at leasr two reasons why the flame test is sometimes invalid.

4. What other means of qualitative analysis are used to identify metals?

Here's what I'll buy from your company if you will just be kind enough to start manufacturing them. It probably won't even involve getting a new patent, just remake some things so they work better.

1) Stop making pencils, pens, lipstick, etc. in cylandrical shapes. I am tired of chasing them when they roll off the table.

2) Start making paper shredders with a handle on the top, so that they can be emptied without placing the top on the floor and spilling paper shreds everywhere.

3) I would like a smaller, quieter lawn mower. About the size of a vacuum cleaner.

4) While you're at it, I'd like garden tools for women. No, I don't want pink garden tools, just tools that utilize lower body strength instead of upper body strength. Example: put a foot bar on "the Garden Weasle."

5) Please make a small device whose only functiuon is to chime or beep softly every 15 minutes when motion is not detected. This device can be attached to car keys, remotes, or other stuff I lose.
