Does antimatter produce electromagnetic radiation? Posted: 21 Nov 2015 06:40 AM PST If so, how does it differ from electromagnetic radiation produced by traditional matter? submitted by ForTheMission [link] [2 comments]

What in quantum entanglement convinces scientists that the particle (and it's corresponding particle) state is only set during the moment of measurement? Posted: 21 Nov 2015 01:03 AM PST I'm trying to wrap my head around quantum entanglement phenomena, like that when you measure one of two far-away particles, they both are said to collapse the moment just one becomes measured. Is this true? Some explanations on Reddit used the metaphor of there being two hats in boxes, one green and one red, so if you took the two boxes far apart, then opened one of them, you immediately know the other hat's color. Yet in that metaphor, clearly the hats didn't just fall into that color state during the moment of opening, they were always that color (we just didn't know).

If I keep betting the same number in a lottery, do I have more chances at winning than if I choose different numbers each time? Posted: 21 Nov 2015 05:01 AM PST If the winning numbers are random, and my betting numbers are also random, then there are two random variables, meaning that there are fewer chances for me to win. However, if I keep betting the same number over an over, there is one fewer random variable in the equations, giving me more chances to win. Is this right? submitted by firelow [link] [13 comments]

Is it possible to encapsulate flame retardants like one can encapsulate lead or asbestos? Posted: 20 Nov 2015 06:51 PM PST For example, flame retardants in a polyurethane cushion used in furniture. submitted by clumsyfork [link] [2 comments]

What makes certain types of cancer more common? Posted: 20 Nov 2015 06:39 AM PST http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-q11yTxaH8z8/Uh-hfVrOVXI/AAAAAAAACIY/gY_0HbSWwVc/s1600/figure1_tcm77-289849.png Source:http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/rel/cancer-unit/cancer-incidence-and-mortality/2008-2010/stb-cancer-incidence-and-mortality-in-the-united-kindom--2008-2010.html I was checking out that statistic and started wondering why cancer in small body parts like the prostate,rectum or the lips are diagnosed more often than, let's say, liver or stomach cancer which are much bigger organs. Does this relate to biases of the statistic (like smoking increasing the risk of lung cancer) or are there actual biological reasons for this? submitted by ProvingWrong [link] [13 comments]

In what form (or forms) are the thoughts of people who have congenital deafness? Are they purely visual? How is thought constructed? Posted: 20 Nov 2015 07:03 PM PST As a hearing person, I have an inner monologue in my own voice and in the imagined voices of others, but I wonder: what is going on in the heads of those who have never heard language? I am fascinated by the notion of this sensory experience of the world, visual, felt on the skin and in the bones (in gesture and proprioceptively). I also wonder: how do people with congenital deafness or profound hearing loss from infancy learn to read? submitted by 1CosMcCray [link] [5 comments]

What does a rocket trail look like when it transitions from atmosphere to space? What does a rocket exhaust even look like in space? Posted: 20 Nov 2015 03:14 PM PST The smoke and gas that exits a rocket as it launches towards space is distinctive; what happens and what does it look like at that point where it transitions out of the atmosphere into space? Does it just become a trail of mist? Hell what would a rocket engine look like firing in space? It struck me the other day that I have never seen a picture of this anywhere except in movies and well I assume they are wrong. submitted by JJMcGee83 [link] [4 comments]

Does conservation of momentum violate the conservation of energy? Posted: 20 Nov 2015 11:43 PM PST assume that object 1 and object 2 are about to collide in ideal conditions; Object 1; Mass= 2 kG Velocity= 5 ms^-1 Momentum= 10 kgms^-1 Kinetic Energy= 25 J Object 2; Mass= 5 kG Velocity= -2 ms^-1 Momentum= -10 kGms^-1 Kinetic Energy= 10 J so after the collision the combined mass will be 7 kG, but what will the velocity be? 0 ms-1 due to momentum or root(10) do to Energy? where have I miscalculated? submitted by shadowz749 [link] [7 comments]

Is there anything (disease, condition, poison, etc) that can prevent hemoglobin from unloading its oxygen? Posted: 20 Nov 2015 09:06 AM PST Just learned how oxygen and carbon dioxide get transferred into/out of blood and wondered if a person could pass out or die from their oxygen not being unloaded into their cells. Not all oxygen is released from hemoglobin and I'm wondering if something can go wrong to prevent any oxygen from being released. (Maybe related) I learned that acidic conditions (caused by lactic acid in exercising muscles or the H+ ion provided by carbonic acid) can make hemoglobin release its oxygen more easily, so would alkaline conditions cause hemoglobin to hold onto its oxygen? Could this be so severe that very little oxygen is released? submitted by RhoBautRawk [link] [6 comments]

Can you encrypt a message securely using only insertions? Posted: 20 Nov 2015 10:03 AM PST Most ciphers use complicated substitutions to render a message of the same length that is undecipherable (012345 + key= 343297 -> DDF1BE) Could you make a cipher only by inserting random length strings of random letters (no substutions)? ((012345 + key= 343297 +random plaintext =85B8497E87856E497349C02A94FD9395A32280F341474A56D22BBACD98F5B8CA D990274F251E0A3BE8F47E62426939C3B6AD482C11B866A42E87984EA3D3FC1C -> 085B184972E8738546E497349C502A94FD Would it be decipherable and could it be strong? submitted by Beelzebubs-Barrister [link] [11 comments]

Twins Paradox from the perspective of the standing twin - My twin makes a round trip to Proxima Centauri at light speed. It would take about 8.5 years for light to PC travel to and back to Earth. Will the remaining twin be 8.5 years older than the travelling one? Posted: 20 Nov 2015 07:33 AM PST Most time I see people talking about light speed travel, they mention it from the perspective of the traveler. "The entire time of the universe will have gone by in 1s in light speed", or something like that. But the way I see it, if such travel was possible, no time at all would have passed to the traveler, while the time light would take to make the trip would have passed to the twin that stayed at home. This means near-light speed is basically travelling to the future? submitted by Calljengarmed [link] [12 comments]

How do bacteria share resistance? Posted: 20 Nov 2015 06:29 AM PST I saw a diagram in the news today - one bacterium became connected to another and a plasmid moved between them. It was cute Is the transfer itself really this simple? Two bacterium bump into eachother, and boom - multidrug resistance. What dictates the movement of DNA from one to another? How do they know they're getting the good stuff, and not some crappy gene mutation making them less resistant. submitted by idontlikeyonge [link] [6 comments]
