Reversing aging is stupid. We already live abnormally long lives. Old humans die so that new humans can take their place and progress can be made.

I beg to differ.

its not dragging light, light just constantly flows and is constantly messed with (direction changed) by the water.

It remains at the same speed.

>>8548547
What if the water current is laminar and there is no turbulence?

>>8548557
same exact thing
its movement in one direction is independent of the other.

Get off 4chan and start doing problems.

>>8548033
just fucking drop out. why the hell did you wait this long to start preparing? did you even go to class and do the homework?

>>8548044
I went to class and halfheartedly did the homework but I need to have all the formulas and shit memorized for tomorrow. I would like to have an excellent theoretical understanding where I can see the formulas derived from the differential equations and eigenfunctions but I haven't found anything like this yet.

What do you suck at

1. Read/watch other people do math. Learn how they do it.
1a. If you can, try and find multiple people doing the same problem in different ways. This prevents you from 'overspecializing' in one particular approach and finding yourself helpless if it fails.
1b. This is going to be more controversial, but if you can find people doing [math]bad[/math] math, do so. (By which I mean relying on faulty or non-rigorous reasoning.) If you can explain why they're incorrect, or where their errors come from, it will increase your understanding of the topic. 4chan is actually pretty good for this, if nothing else because of the lack of avenues for you to learn from mistakes.

2. Practice. You've probably heard this one before: start by copying what you've seen in (1.), then try and tackle some problems on your own. If you often find yourself unsure of how to proceed, or making too many mistakes, go back to (1.) and do more of (1a-1b.).

3. Make your own notes, or better yet try and explain the topic to someone else. You know you've internalized and understood it if you can explain it in a simple manner.

>>8547883
There's nothing in particular that I'm "bad" at per say, it's just that my knowledge is very basic. I've never had an active interest in math until recently, but I'm roughly on a high school
civics senior level.

I wouldn't mind revising everything I was taught in high school in order to improve my foundation because usually I'll just compensate for my shaky math knowledge with logical thinking, basically by doing what >>8547909 called bad math
>1b. This is going to be more controversial, but if you can find people doing bad math

I find math interesting and physics even more so; especially algebra and I'd rather try my luck and improve rather than feel handicapped without attempting to get gud.

So rather than improving in a specific field, basic guidelines that aren't too apparent would be really helpful. I guess if there's anything specific I'd like to get better at then it would be linear functions.

What c++ is this? 2011 2013?

>>8547607
The book is from 2003 (I talk about that in both videos)

>>8547614

Why the fuck would anyone want to learn old and outdated C++?

>every physicist is a mathematician
lmao no they're not

>>8547452
Yes, they are. This is basic logic, so it is expected that basic people like you struggle with it.

>>8547457
>This is basic logic, so it is expected that basic people like you struggle with it.
Wouldn't that imply that I would grasp it? If the logic is simple, and I am simple?

Dark Universe.

A universe that exists within our universe that you cannot see and mirrors us.

>What will they think of next? And will it start with Dark?
Trouble with trib, errr, I mean theories
? Just prepend "Dark" and you are now the established capacity in the field.

I'd just like to point out that the fallacy here is assuming that a structure needs to melted in order to fail.

>>8547148
The only question was can thermate melt steel.
Draw your own conclusions for everything else.

>>8547140
Who said it couldn't?

It seems like you're just another mindless drone repeating what the lobby tries to propagate. Your "reasearch" probably consits of reading 2 pages on wikipedia after watching some video from Reddit.
I hope you're just a naive 18 year old freshman and not literally retarded.

>>8546878
Wow. Very helpful. Do you have any data too back up that smug attitude or are you just being a faggot for fun?

What type of movements make a car driver experience g forces?

>>8545728
The reaction force from your inertia acting on the plane's body when it accelerates. Like a centrifuge, which is why they use them to train pilots.

>>8545728

imagine you are going one direction at a specific velocity

it takes a force to change your direction (or accelerate). Without a force acting upon you, nothing would ever stop you from moving in that one direction at that one velocity. G forces are just those forces that cause the pilot to change his direction or velocity.

Also imagine being in the middle of empty space with no gravity: if you throw a ball it will just go on forever at whatever velocity it is at after it leaves your hand it in a straight line.
