Your saying that x=x+1 you cannot interpret any problem that way (I hope 10 years as a registered mech engineer qualifies me to discuss this with you) Please clarify what you are trying to say here, your grammar has lost me a bit. da_ripper: I'm not sure exactly which form of the argument and/or it...

I wanna see Pearl Jam and U2.

Seconded

I'm going with the wheel thing. That's what the question looks like to me. As I've said before the problem is poorly stated and far too broad. I googled it a bit and saw much better and 'more solvable' versions of it elsewhere. If you "solve" this question with my method (using perfect pa...

"The belt compensates for the rotation of the wheels in reverse" It is not the conveyor belt moves backward at the speed of the airplane, but at the speed of the wheel rotation. Thus, you cannot say the wheels will just turn twice as fast, as it is causing the cb to speed up as well... <<...

Maybe this will help? Replace the conveyor belt with an infinitely long , flat sheet of ice in the sea and replace the wheels of the plane with skates...<snip> err, no. :roll: Why so stubborn? If the flat sheet of ice were to move backwards relative to the plane, it would be the same as with the co...

Maybe this will help? Replace the conveyor belt with an infinitely long, flat sheet of ice in the sea and replace the wheels of the plane with skates. Position the plane on the sheet of ice and a boat in the sea alongside the plane. The boat holds station relative to the earth. Imagine the sheet of ...

Fact is that ladies are pre programmed by nature to seek out the stronger, more resourceful males in the pack to farther their young………………sorry nice guys.

But D3 runs fine on ultra with only the odd parts with noticible lag. the classic mod lags almost all the time...?even on high detail.

Tried that, thanks anyway.

Busy playing Classic Doom from this months CD but im getting serious lag on high and ultra detail and after I quit the game there is an exclamation icon in the tray saying that the system has run out of virtual memory. Anybody else have this problem, or know how to fix it? My system runs Doom 3 on h...

Will give it a try, Thanks guys.

So…..you're prepared to sell a perfectly good mouse for R300 and then buy the exact same mouse with a different coloured piece of plastic on top for R600? It staggers the imagination.

Yep…… VWSA has managed to convince a large portion of the South African public that a badly built, decades old design car is cool. Its marketing genius..........

ST1R , dont go and get nasty... its a discussion... ok Kankuro, fair enough... So if I go and eat a boat load of baked beans and sit and fart on the bicycle I will start moving forward as well? My problem with the theory that the wheels are unnecesary is that : You are basically saying that you can...

Ok... So you are saying the plane will start moving forward on the conveyor belt and the wheels just spinning faster? Now, the theory says that the conveyor belt will also pick up speed to move at EXACTLY the same speed as the wheels... I know it is the engines pushing the aircraft forward.... Howe...

Thrust is thrust, it is not dependant on the speed of the wheels. The plane will move forward as normal but the wheels will be spinning twice as fast. The conveyor belt will have to be the length of a normal runway though.

No offence bro, but I think you are taking this a little too personally. The price bracket that you are looking at in any reasonable area in Gauteng is probably one of the most competitive in Africa. The trick is to be at the front of the line, get the papers as soon as they are delivered to the gar...

Sell it – add the 1000 bucks you get for it to your 40000 and then go and buy a real life size car.
