If I were stranded in space, could I propel myself throwing rocks? Posted: 07 Apr 2016 08:47 PM PDT Imagine I'm floating in space, trying to reach a space station 20 km away. Lets assume I have unlimited water, food and oxygen supply thanks to the unobtanium reactor in my backpack. I have a bag of rocks, samples from my mission. Could I reach the station throwing rocks in the opposite direction? if so, how many rocks would be required? Edit: grammar and such. [link] [comments] |

What would happen if you mixed blood and mercury? Posted: 08 Apr 2016 01:02 AM PDT human blood. and of course outside of the human body in an appropriate container. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 07 Apr 2016 07:32 PM PDT Artificial sweeteners like Splenda are said to be hundreds or thousands of times sweeter than real sugar. How do they measure this? And why is it that a teaspoon of splenda in one of those little packets tastes exactly as sweet as a teaspoon of sugar? Shouldn't my mind be absolutely blown by how sweet it is? [link] [comments] |
Which is more important for keeping solids solid: Coulomb Repulsion or Electron Degeneracy Pressure? Posted: 08 Apr 2016 04:43 AM PDT I've seen it claimed that the electrostatic repulsion of atomic electrons is less important than the Pauli repulsion involved with overlapping electron orbitals when it comes to why solids can't pass through each other. Is there a well understood answer to this phenonmenon? [link] [comments] |

Posted: 07 Apr 2016 07:26 PM PDT To add further clarification is, lets say, the 5th dimension the magnetic field. Also how the field of gravity permeates these 'first' 4 dimensions. are the other dimensions the fields we observe in science such as the quantum field and so forth. [link] [comments] |
What makes the spark mechanism in a safety lighter work? Posted: 08 Apr 2016 01:57 AM PDT Have you ever taken apart one of those long safety lighters, inside there is a button with wires running to it, which generates a spark when the button's pressed down. How does this work? I've searched for this before, but I've never found out how it actually works. http://i.imgur.com/KKOy4AA.jpg I couldn't find a picture of what I'm talking about... am I the only one that's taken one of these apart?

What makes the gas around Jupiter and Saturn part of the planet and not the atmosphere? Posted: 07 Apr 2016 12:00 PM PDT or is it just a really thick atmosphere? Sorry if it's a silly question. [link] [comments] |
Why does my shower curtain blow inwards while water is running? Posted: 07 Apr 2016 12:09 PM PDT All I want to do is have a shower without the curtain constantly sticking to various body parts. [link] [comments] |

How does General Relativity explain Moon tidal forces ? Posted: 08 Apr 2016 05:21 AM PDT If in General Relativity, gravity is nothing more than spacetime curvature ( aka bowling ball on a mattress ), how are the Moon's tidal 'forces' accounted for in terms of spacetime curvature ?

Could the accretion disk of a black hole emit enough energy to create a habitable zone? Posted: 07 Apr 2016 10:41 PM PDT Hello, recently I've thought about some kind of scenario where a black hole could be the center of a solar system. I've read that the accretion disk of large black holes (quasars for example, though these don't quite fit the solar system approach) gets pretty hot due to friction, so could this possibly generate enough heat to create an habitable zone where a planet with living beings could exist?

Can RADAR be used to detect smaller objects, like bullets? Posted: 08 Apr 2016 04:38 AM PDT I was wondering since RADAR can be used for imaging and detecting fast moving aircraft. Can a radar be used in lets say a Smaller military base to detect incoming bullet fire and where it came from/trajectory? If so, why is it not so common? Any information is much appreciated. Further reading on the subject would also be great, I'm really interested in the capabilities of this technology. [link] [comments] |
