Freemanan:The holy Grail? |

Teempakguy:Yessir... It's a phenomena I wanted to uncover but it's already been uncovered... It fascinates me.. |

1. My favourite book is Google.  by google. I don't care whether its a book or not , it is one of the best out there  2. 1. Nikola Tesla 2. John Goodenough 3. Max Planck 4. William Shockley 5. Perhaps, all German physicist 3. 1. Victor Frankenstein 2. Sherlock Holmes 4. 1. The wings 2. The transistor 3. Internet 4. The electric generator 5. Computers 5. That would be when I invent a machine that's over 100% efficient 6. When I found out that wearing glasses even for years wouldn't correct the fu.ckin eye defect 7. 1. Nobel prize 2. Scientific god 8. 1. Gravity battery 2. The sun (well I guess nature has already taken care of that) |

Hi guys! I want you guys to help me with a li2 probability question. The question goes thus: if we are to choose two person from 4 boys nd 5 girls. What is the probability of choosing a girl? |
| Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by Nobody: 10:26pm On Jun 27, 2015 |
LOC1:chai  and this is my weak point. Anyways, sha. Lemme try.Add the whole thing. You get 9 people. The next logical course of action would be to divide the number of girls on the team by the number above. Getting 5/9 which would be your final answer. @ er . . . queed. |

Teempakguy: 1. Inventors and Inventions... not a textbook tho 2. I. Darwin II. Einstein III. Newton IV. Marie Curie V. Georgi Mendel 3. I. Reed Richards[fanstatic four #cartoon] II. Dr. Ken [evolution #cartoon]... learned osmosis and little abt evolution[darwin's theory] from this dude III. Bruce Banner[HULK] IV. Dr. Doom 4. Helicopter/airplane Electricity Light bulb Fire Musical Instruments 5. when i plotted a coordinate graph for the first time.... Maths teacher just came in, wrote "coordinates" on the board, gave 2D coordinates, rough sketched a 2D coordinate system and said "first test"... we haven't done any kind of graphs so when i got all right, you can imagine the shout[abi scream  ]6. when i just don't understand chemistry, gonna keep trying tho 7. Nobel Prize A statue in my honour, side by side with the statue of liberty 8. artificial eyes; i.e a system that converts video format from a camera into neuron-signals and sends them to the brain via electromagnetic waves or through the optic nerves.... turns out some multimillion dollar company is already working on it[i think].....

LOC1:two person? and choosing a girl as what? first, second, both choices? plz come clarify |
| Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by Queed: 7:38am On Jun 28, 2015 |
Teempakguy: We shouldn't kill ourselves becos we want to solve mathematics g = 5 b = 4 total = 9 If we have to choose a girl then p(G) = 5/9 since the condition attached to it is 'choosing a girl' we have one less person to shoose from from the sample space (9-1 =  , also the number of girls has been reduced by one (5-1=4)Now e can pick a boy, or pick a girl. so we would have a girl or a boy 4/8 + 4/8 = 1 possible outcome (1 ) decide by the total outcome( =1/85/9 * 1/8 5/72 |

Teempakguy:sorry I came in late bro...firstly m' a biologist not a chemist but I think we can work together because we have similar research interest...I' m an aspiring environmental biotechnologist with research focus on phytoremediation so I think we can mk a good team and also share ideas.Thanks |

Hello guys can we discuss the mechanism we think was likely used to build the great pyramids. Cc. Teempakguys help invite others, you know their monikers more than i do

**yawns**
some guy mentioned me like i knew how they built the pyramids....
**stretches and coils back in bed** |

Teempakguy:invitation accepted! |
| Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by johnydon22(m): 8:37pm On Jun 28, 2015 |
RobinHez: That is why we are here. . . scientific inclined individuals solves problems scientifically. . . so since you don't or any of us know, we are here to postulate and tender plausible hypothesis on possible ways it could have been done |

Teempakguy:(1)I think my favorite textbook is New School Physics by Dr. M. W. Anyakoha...it simplified o'level physics to me. (2)In no order Thomas Edison Albert Einstein Isaac Newton Marie Curie Micheal Faraday (3)Not much into this. (4)Computer Airplane/helicopter Piano Electricity and electrical appliances Robots (5)Being able to independently solve some knotty physics and mathematics questions. (6)Not getting the accurate answer after so many rough work...it's damn annoying! Lol (7)Emeritus Professor of Computer Science. ( Cannot think of any right now...laterCheers! 1 Like 1 Share |

johnydon22:you know, the biggest wonder for me here is how on earth they figured out how to calculate the area of a pyramid. Considering the wheel had not even been invented then. |
| Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by RobinHez(m): 8:49pm On Jun 28, 2015 |
johnydon22:hmmm... firstly, i'm not as good as my monicker may suggest like i said twice here,,, this thread will be dominated by Giants, leaving the amateurs to wallow in amazement anyways, the pyramids look like a staircase of some sort, so maybe, those egyptain guys could have been using each base as a 'scaffold' for the next height,, using local pulleys to transport building materials. my own hypothesis.... Lest i forget, the guy who completed the apex of the building may have then jumped down to a large trampoline....i dunno |
| Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by johnydon22(m): 8:56pm On Jun 28, 2015 |
Teempakguy: The great Imhotep did, no wonder Egyptians deified him after death. . . |
| Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by Nobody: 8:59pm On Jun 28, 2015 |
johnydon22:I suspected it was him. Also, there is another aspect. The pyramid is not merely a construction, it is a building with hollow spaces inside. Ingenious support system.  |
| Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by Nobody: 9:02pm On Jun 28, 2015 |
RobinHez:lol, he could have simply climbed down. Also, at the time the pyramid was built, wheels had not yet been invented. So, forget the pulleys Also, the pyramid has hollow spaces inside. So, they did not build it with a scaffold system. |
| Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by Slimzjoe(m): 9:05pm On Jun 28, 2015 |
Honestly, this Thread have made me Realise how Backward I still am in Sciences...... Wat did I even learn in Sec.Skul ?  What am I learning now too?? Lol |
| Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by johnydon22(m): 9:10pm On Jun 28, 2015 |
Teempakguy: The pyramids were built with large stone stacks bound together, i think my best guest is that the inner chambers (Pharaoh's burial chamber and the queen's burial chamber) were carved out after the main construction, going by the hidden doors, steep and narrow passage ways, and one of the chamber going down past the pyramid foundation into the ground below |
| Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by johnydon22(m): 9:12pm On Jun 28, 2015 |
Slimzjoe: Lol. . .Nigerian secondary schools even universities are disasters when it comes to scientific studies. . Read independently, scientific materials and independent study |
| Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by Nobody: 9:12pm On Jun 28, 2015 |
johnydon22:Was there metal at that period? Check if that was the bronze or iron age. It takes iron to accomplish what you are suggesting. |
| Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by RobinHez(m): 9:13pm On Jun 28, 2015 |
Teempakguy:dat would be more stressful and less fun... hmmm....dats unusual...no wonder its one of the wonders of the world. ok,,,lemme do a quick research on it and i'd be back.  |
| Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by Nobody: 9:15pm On Jun 28, 2015 |
RobinHez:fun ke? It was a job for the slaves nah. Nobody cared about how "fun" it was. Only the end product. Which we now appreciate today. |
| Re: The Sciences Discussion Thread. by RobinHez(m): 9:18pm On Jun 28, 2015 |
Teempakguy:ermmm...i had this kind of pulley in mind.... it doesnt have to be wheeled, it just needs enough man power to drag the stones up
