Is it the most complex of arithmetic operations?

>>7645347
No, it is an extension of multiplication, in the same way subtraction is the addition of negative numbers (addition of inverse quantities), division is multiplication by inverse quantities.

Cosmology noob here.


Since we have observable and documented evidence that galaxies, including our own, are rapidly moving away from each other, has there been any attempt by scientists to plot the exact location in 3-dimensional space where the "big bang" actually occurred?

>>7645278
Since every galaxy is moving away from every other galaxy, the only realistic answer to "where did the big bang happen" is where ever you are observing from.
>>
>>7645278
I suppose it's possible, but why?
There's no real reason to figure that out.
I imagine the computing power required would alone make the task nigh impossible.
>>
>>7645278
Everywhere. It's not an explosion, its a rapidly expanding point.

Your question is like blowing up a balloon and asking "what us the exact location of the balloon when it was less inflated?

Why do I post a spaceship from Rouge System instead of an actual picture of the behemoth?

Because according to what everyone was stoked for we should have reactionless FLUX drives like the ship in pic related.

Why don't we take 1 billion from every country and build a fuckhuge fuckpowerful collider around the circumference of the earth that collides particles at joules of energy?

Completely wrong. Even if you consider high energy physics experiments useless, only the construction and development of the LHC provided us a lot of new technology.

Genuinely curious, what new technologies came from it?

I know, I know, I'm late. I don't have a trained eye either. Does the consumption of processed meats increase your risk of cancer? Have the reports been exaggerated?

If not, what does the world health organization have to gain?

Oh, gee, bacon isn't good for you. What a fucking surprise. It must be a conspiracy.
>>
>>7644995
It does increase your risk of cancer. However, based on the given numbers, it's not that much of a big deal. If you ate bacon every day, it would only give you an extra 0.4% chance of dying of cancer you wouldn't otherwise have gotten.

This works out to a lifetime of bacon-eating costing you, on average, maybe three weeks of your life, or about one minute per serving. You probably lost that much time out of your life cooking it in the first place.

Why haven't we evolved into a Type I Civilization yet? Why must we cut funding for science and halt progression to joint pointless wars over black gold?
56 posts and 5 images submitted.
>>
Only correct answer is bc hitler didnt win
>>
>>7644956
Because you can't throw money at scientific progress. It requires a special mind to solve issues that are currently unsolvable. To go into Type I civilization you need to solve nuclear fusion and create a network of fusion plants to power the planet. Also the black gold is dying. Cheap oil is running out, and a lot of countries are changing to natural gas or fission power. The latter is becoming important in China and India. Two countries that consume a lot of oil.

africa and india havn't modernized yet and are going to go through a massive period of growth

people seem to ignore this but the world's electricity consumtion is going to more than triple very soon and this will most likely be run through coal and gas.
It's ironic that pro-environment hippies basically fucked up the world more than anybody else by giving into anti-nuclear fear campaigns

If you drilled a hole pole to pole and you descended through it with no brakes and hypothetically you don't die from the inhospitable conditions, would you stop accelerating once you reach the core of the Earth? Or would you be able to pass through the core and reach the other side?
39 posts and 3 images submitted.
>>
It's an old question and barring all the relevant rules of physics you'd come out in the other end 42 minutes after you entered the hole.
>>
>>7644907
Gravitational acceleration is higher as you get further down, but without brakes you would have enough acceleration that as you passed the centre, you would start shooting away toward the other pole albeit with less energy
>>
>>7644907
Your acceleration would decrease as you approached the center, you'd pass right through the other side, and you'd keep slowing down as you rose until you emerged exactly on the other side of the Earth about 42.2 minutes later. Then you'd fall back down again, and neglecting air resistance, keep oscillating forever.

Fun fact: If you ignore friction and the Earth's rotation, then a gravity-powered ride (say a rolling ball or something) down *any* straight hole drilled between two points on Earth's surface will reach the other end in about 42.2 minutes. The reduced rate of acceleration is exactly canceled out by the reduced distance.

>>7644509
I'd say more people would be able to recognise the Shuttle than the Saturn V, mainly because it's just more unique in appearance
>>
>>7644509
Shuttle is more iconic. Saturn V is more archetypal.
>>
Space shuttle is by far more recognizable. The shuttles were more unique in name and appearance, had more flights, and had more recent high profile incidents.
