I think it referred to its impulse rather than momentum, aka v*m. The cartoon might be a bit flawed though, as the car is stationary (or at least we can assume it is) relative to the spectator, so the impulse would be 0 and mass irrelevant. PS: Not a quantumphysicist, not even a normal physicist or even remotely related to the field.
It depends on the kind. There are groups that would prefer to see human presence reduced to a speck so nature can thrive. There are groups that somehow care for one single bog or meadow but fail to see the bigger picture. There are also those that simply want to protect everything and do support large projects provided they fulfill a lot of regulations. There are also people such as myself who have given themselves to Realpolitik: Local environmentalism is pointless if global protection fails (some drama added for effect)
I mean, I can understand the reaction. But wtf is this post, glorifying vigilantism. On a minor note: wtf is this post, the text colour, the caption, the needless emoji, the weird … hastag-like things at the end.
Something to remember: thicker filaments, while they do last longer, worsen the ratio of light to heat.
They’d … switch to metric?
You could put at least some effort into - you know - looking it up?!?
Finally, the Apache attack helicopter-joke makes sense. U.S. conservative commenters can now rest in peace.
How is mainstream media?
Gave you some upvotes to hopefully brighten your mood. It can be rough, have a great day.
Now I am confused. Mind bearing with me for a sec?
I was referring to the chlorine present in NaCl, that should in fact be chloride due to it’s anionic nature, should it not? I mean sure it’s pedantic, but I’d still like to know where I went wrong with that thought :D .
I think they meant chlorine, as in Cl2 (g). Certainly not edible, thus the joke.
Horrible at chemistry, but I’m 98% sure it is chloride - the chlorine is present as an anion, and as such is called chloride. Even if you refer to it as an individual component, you still observe Cl-, not Cl (or rather Cl2).
Well, they had me there. Fair point.
I always wondered how people could talk or think about burning books and not consider themselves to be a villain. Wth, I probably wouldn’t even burn Mein Kampf or Mao’s red book and you want to burn novels you’ve enjoyed because the writer endorses a politician.
A child born into winter will experience summer soon enough unless something bad happens. I’m certainly not an expert on babies and their development, but I’d think it matters little. A more interesting topic might be the pregnancy - fetal development sets the course for the next few years or even decades, I’m thinking about epigenetic imprinting. That would certainly have an influence, but since we do not have mating seasons (well, spring and december maybe) I’d wager the impact is comparably low.
It’s going to be very hard having the same opinion for all of these (somewhat abstract) instances - considering how wildly incompatible some of these are.
EDIT: Also, wrong (but arguably original) use of template.
Well, alright thanks for clearing that up. I understand the meme now, although I still struggle with the … unusual use of terminology. But yes, it very much makes sense to show teosinte then!
EDIT: OP cleared up the confusion, thanks for that I … what? This is such a gigantic leap, going from Teosinte to modern day mazie and calling it a GMO, what is it even suppoed to mean? We shouldn’t use domesticated plant? I am seriously scared by the lack of what I consider to be general knowledge of breeding in the general population, have people stopped going to school in the last 5 years?
No, that can’t be right, Black Flag released just a few years ago … I remember it like it’s yesterday …
