    Well its the weeks before finals for me! horray....

    And my physics teacher decided that it would be fun to give us a nice worksheet over the weekend...i am getting most of it but there are a few that are driving me crazy... lets see :)

    A 1.70xa0^2-g piece of lead is heated in boiling water {100.0 C}. The lead is then plunged into 1.00x10^2-g of water at 20.0 C. The equilibrium temperature of the water and lead is 22.1 C. Calculate the specific heat of lead. Assume that no heat is lost or gained by the surroundings.

    Hope you listened...i did but i still dont get it

    I know the answer to that!!!!That's easy...first take the standard derivative of pie. then from the chart on page 15,872 of the owners manual from the Samsung 55"plasma tv you need to divide that from the % of molybdenum in the ocean. Then take the temperature of the sun on the second sunday after the winter solstice. Subtract that which is 193 degrees celcius. Almost done... now pay attention for the shortcut-use the a(2)+b(2)=c(2) model and multiply that number by tan(2.852) then subtract it from 82.772.
    There, see how easy it is!!!
    I think I skipped that day when the teacher was going over that topic. I vaguely remember purchasing a couple Turbo snails that day or was it a metal halide light fixture?
    Well I think i'll go back and finish my Dr.Seuss book"One Foot, Two Foot, Red Foot Blue Foot.
    best of luck!!!
    Hey if you need any more anvice or help doing your homework, let me know...

    Hmm lets see. School? I seem to remember a time where I went to this place everyday for awhile. But as far as I can remember it was to hunt for girls. School? Nope doesn't ring a bell.;D
