Ok, I have another hypothetical orbit-related question, I do apologise, heh. Assuming all other factors were the same, what would happen if the orbit of the Earth around the sun was circular rather than elliptical? Thanks!

I live in northern California and see honeybees all the time. Are they wild? And if so, is there a way to find their bee tree so I can experience wild honey? If I find one, is there a safe way to extract the honey?

Two trains move at right angle to each other, at equal speeds v1=v2=v. Pwo passenges, one on each train fire photonic blast guns in horizontal directions perpendicular to their tracks.
As it turns out both photonic blasts went in the same direction.

What is speed v?

If f(x) = ln(x) - 1, 1 <= x <= 4, evaluate the Rienmann sum, taking sample points to be left endpoints. Answer should be correct to six decimal points.
oh and <= "means less than or equal to"...
10 points for the CORRECT answer!!
thank you!

I see many movies like star wars, aliens, star trek, etc... just to name a few, traveling into deep space from one star to the other. They allways look clean, free of ice, is this true or would these space ship be covered in a thick layer of ice?, since they are so far away from any external heat source.
Don't know if space ships need to generate heat on the out side to make them look like in the movies.
I know the space shuttle has to rotate towards the sun in order to keep the shuttle from freezing on the dark side.

Lets divide 2 liters of space into two interwoven regions of two equal volumes, and fill the regions with one liter of oil (ρ = 0.9g/ml) and one liter of water.

Force of buoyancy acting on water is equal to the weight of displaced oil, that is 0.9kg.
Force of buoyancy acting on oil is equal to the weight of displaced water, that is 1.0kg.
But according to 3rd law of Newton the two forces must be equal.
