tweetybird Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Here's how the game is played. Post a dollar amount you honestly think the rate will be. No comments needed just a dollar amount. When at least 50 have posted, I'll post the rate..It is actually a pretty accurate formula. I'll go first. $2.70..The price I just payed for a gallon of gas. 5.29 Here's how the game is played. Post a dollar amount you honestly think the rate will be.

WHAT DO WE WIN IF WE HIT IT ON THE DOT I HAD A DREAM IT WAS GOING TO HIT AT $5.29 HOPE THAT IT'S RIGHT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zantac Posted October 31, 2010 Report Share Posted October 31, 2010 FORMULA, TRY THIS Canola Oil, for example made from rapeseed, is the formula is C3H5O6C(CnH(2n+x))3 where, n = 15, 17, 19 or 21 x= plus or minus 1. -3, or -5 FORMULA 2 "I perceive the Universe as a single equation, and it is so simple..." --LT Barclay in STAR TREK TNG: "The Nth Degree" Posting was light the past week, but some work got done. Today we'll return to the subject of Planck units. Max Planck started as a conservative physicist studying atomic spectra. The ultraviolet catastrophe led him to a "act of desperation," the quantum value h. Planck was also instrumental in getting a patent clerk's first papers published in 1905. If not for Planck, the world might have taken decades to hear of Einstein. Planck noted that combinations of h, c and G led to this "universal" system of units. At the time he had no way of knowing whether h or c were constant. Some science types get lazy and say that h = c = G =1. They are not equal, or they could be used interchangeably. We'll use Planck's units to express something more useful. A basic principle states that scale R of the Universe is its age, a timelike separation from the "Big Bang." R and t are related by factor c, the "speed of light." R = ct This equation (1) caused the Big Bang. As t increases, the Universe expands. R/l_pl = ct/l_pl Now l_pl = ct_pl, so: R/l_pl = t/t_pl Expressed in Planck units, equation (1) becomes: R = t We can simply express that size of the Universe is related to its age. This may appear more palatable to those used to thinking that c is constant. The Universe can't expand at the same rate forever, for Mass and Gravity slow it down. We do some calculations, and c is further related to t by: GM = tc^3 Expressing equation (2) in Planck units: M/t = c^3/G = m_pl/t_pl M/m_pl = t/t_pl The Planckian expression of GM=tc^3 was also noted by bloggers Thomas Dent and Lubos Motl. Using Planck units can be misleading, because they are not all constant. Now we can state both equations (1) and (2) in a single line: M = R = t Repeat: This must be the simplest equation ever! It relates everything you want to know about the Universe but were afraid to ask: Mass M, size R, age t, expansion rate and how it slows with time. This shows just how powerful mathematics can be. According to STAR TREK, one line may explain an entire Universe. Planck is not the only one who started as a conservative physicist. When these equations are worked out, the appeal is hard to deny even for the conservative. Arriving at a simple solution makes all the challenges of science worthwhile. The simplicity may someday be noticed by physicists, possibly in the 24th century. This may be an equation far ahead of its time.
