Nonso23: I don try ooo . If I write again It might still be the same brouhaha.

I agree with Matthew of course. Many constraints makes his model unsuitable.
1) Being inability to run on a fairly smooth surface compared to train tracks
2) Air interference.
3) Uneven speed and acceleration giving the air molecules stored inertia even while the bus is no longer accelerating.
4) A bus is fairly small and dampers on the wheels still pass on inertia that in the normal direction of travel of the bus.

We are over looking the assumptions of the initial post.
Large train
Inside (closed to external interferences)
uniform speed (450mph)
Etc.

In real life his model will hold but optimizing with the assumption supplied it ceases to hold

Ahh I understand now

Nonso23: man= stone fragments/ tiny pieces Stone = train Net = Spacetime 'held' by Earth. Warped Net = New spacetime of stone. It's the simplest model I could come up with

Your simple is complex. I won't mind tethering to your brain I think the problem is that you're forgetting you aren't explaining this to a Science major. Use layman terms biko nna


Btw do you agree with MatthewBriggs?

Nonso23: Chai! This aspect is sort of like conceptual physics. You model with mental pictures. Unless maybe nairaland can tether our brains together

For the space time continuum warping. Think of a mosquito net in 3D then imagine throwing a stone at it whilst assuming the mosquito net gives way as soon as the stone touches it but doesn't tear oo. It just keeps giving way at the front elastically while mending at the back of the stone. ice the separated strands glue back behind the stone sort of. I don't think I'm making sense sef

Ok. I get the image but not the relationship. Establish a relationship between the mosquito net/stone, the Earth's surface/man and the train/man

Nonso23: More English Kwa...
Na how I Sabi explain am be this o

Draw me a picture then. Or give me a mental image with something I can relate with? I need visual aid to learn anything

Oh I'm reading up this theory of relativity on the web sha. Maybe it will help somewhat

Nonso23: Relativity is quite complex in itself.
okay, recall that in euclidean geometry we have three axes. x,y,z. In relativity we have four. x,y,z,t. Where t= time, This last addition was made by Einstein after he discovered the speed limit of the universe - light's speed. He found out that 2 seconds aboard a moving mass wasn't 2 seconds anymore on the ground. In short, all the theory says is that time is not constant as classical/newtonian physics propagates and so far he's right. Take out time to research this field of physics. It's interesting.

And your room is moving at about 66000mph in space around the sun in an elliptical orbit. you land on the same spot when you jump because you are on earth's space time continuum.

All we do practically can also be theoretically modeled. The problem is that in practice we can work around the minute variables with little adjustments while in theory we cannot model all variables due to the 'chaos theory' limitation.

Honey I like your posts, I really do. But you need to start speaking more English here, and less science so that more Artsy minds like mine won't have to paint a mental picture 90% of the time

tomiobj: . Look @ ur sentence and say what's wrong*modified* What's good news about an American wanting to run for 'us'?


*u.s

"fragments, consider revising"
You lost me there. What's your point again?

What's good news about an American wanting to run for us?

Last I checked, beauty was subjective.

I don't know about you LB. Perhaps the weather made you crappy, but it had the opposite effect on me.
My day was beautiful even with the rain

It's been a beautiful day

How hard is it to sight a moon? I mean it's the regular moon, right?

saintneo: Aang lived for 112years plus any other years he had after defeating the phoenix king ozzai. that's like 182years.

I wouldn't call being frozen at the bottom of the ocean for a hundred years living.

Our dog kills chickens and eats them! It's crazy because we don't feed him raw meat. Then he went on to teach his surrogate daughter(well, Brandy cheated on him ) the same nasty habit.
Eventually we had to sell them.

Our new dog doesn't kill anything....not even rats. On the contrary he plays around with Lizards rats--traps them by the tail and dies some funny stuff--and eventually lets them off. He allows chicks share his food, but chases the big 'uns away. Oh but he'll kill hawks that try to carry off the chicks if he manages to hold one down long enough.
Such a sweet soul

I heard Mr Osewa still lives with his folks too. How true?

Liamm: lol. We're saying the same thing.

We were saying the same thing.
Thankfully you realize that now. Good day

Liamm: she's not the one putting on the jeans. Glance at the pix again. The guy is actually wearing the jeans

You need to read my post again

Very touchy people here. Someone asks a question and all you can do is turn it into a battle of the sexes.

I've never had a problem picking an outfit before. It's something my brain is automatically conditioned to do before I even get out of bed

texanomaly: My nickname Tex (+) anomaly cuz I'm one of a kind.

An anomaly from Texas?

solomityo: its corrected in 8.1
it was general for all wp8.0

Thank God. Thanks

godG: Guys be saying good traits like say them fit marry a lady with a nauseating physiognomy.

On FP today, no be one dude say hin wife bobby don flat finish? That is for you to know that beauty is very important. That is what you see before anything. Why do you think ladies invest in make up? Even the inwardly beautiful ones do so to enhance marketability.

Remember, if your shop is unkempt, no one would want to patronize you.

Uh huh

First two letters for Uju, and the other word apparently has nothing to do with my personality

Ceasar1: [color=#000030]
Hmm. Would you be OK to live the rest of your life with someone whose appearance doesn't please you? [/color]

Good question


It's actually a bit of both for me. The looks starts the process and the character seals it. One without the other really doesn't work for me
Say I might like a guy I haven't yet met(character at work) and then I meet him(looks) and the zing just flat out dies
On the plus side, one doesn't have to be drop dead gorgeous to get my attention...the basic's just fine
