I think thinking is faster than the speed of light, maybe someday I can creat a technology to use thinking to travel to another star anywhere in the big bang within less than a second. What do you think?

A small block with mass m rests on a frictionless horizontal tabletop a distance r from a hole in the center of the table (the figure ). A string tied to the small block passes down through the hole, and a larger block with mass M is suspended from the free end of the string. The small block is set into uniform circular motion with radius r and speed v.What must v be if the large block is to remain motionless when released?Express your answer in terms of the variables r,M ,m , and g.

When an electron moves from one orbit to another a it get wiggled.And emit radiations.................

Now the question is....... How this radiations produce?

We're doing an experiment and it's hard to derive the relationship between a metal's density and its ability to conduct heat... Is there such a relationship or does the metal's ability to conduct heat based solely on atomic structure?

I know that certain forms of household and industrial waste can be recycled, paper, glass and aluminium for example.

Whilst I know that after a certain point recycling stops being an efficient use of resources. I was curious as to how far recycling could be taken as a technology.

For example, would it be more cost effective at some point in the future to mine rubbish dumps for the resources they contain as opposed to mining the raw matreials.

I'm not sure but I vaguely recollect something about "energy" used in recycling versus that used in refining and that at some point theres a trade-off between the two.
