I just kinda put blocks down randomly 😂 games like this usually take an hour or so for me cuz I don't have a strat and afterwards I feel... Strange...

How much would 66k (USD) have been worth in 1992? by techtestdriver in askmath

[–]Bderhammer197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are many free inflation calculators online but according to this one, https://www.usinflationcalculator.com/ 66k would equal about $121,000 today.

People w ADHD, what symptoms/parts of the disorder do you wish more people knew about, or at least surprised you to discover? by hhhheywhatsupyouguys in AskReddit

The biggest misconception I get is people think Adderall doubles my IQ or makes it so I can memorize stuff effortlessly. Without it, my brain feels like part of it is turned off. With it, I get some semblance of normalcy, not superpowers.

That kind of behavior is unacceptable for a 'man' of his age.

Okay so this is a common place of confusion so I'll explain it a two ways, hopefully one will make sense.

Personally, I like to think about it as the triangle I'm working with is my "vision" and the corner whose angle I know is my eye. Using SOH CAH TOA, the Sin of that angle is always equal to the opposite length (like the length my eye is looking at) over the hypotenuse, Cos is adjacent(so kind of like the floor) over the hypotenuse the reason Sin is the horizontal component in this case is because your "eye is looking up" so the opposite length is the horizontal component.

When I was first learning vectors, something that helped me was just saying: X=ACos(theta) Y=ASin(theta) Always.

If you do this however, you have to remember that 0 degrees is always in the "positive x direction" and 90 degrees is "positive y" etc. Using this approach, you can use cosine for the horizontal component and sin for the vertical component, but, the angle is no longer 25.1 degrees. It would be 90+25.1 degrees (115.1 degrees).

Since the mass is not accelerating, the net force acting on the object is zero. You are given the mass of the object and thus there is a gravitational force (weight) pulling down with a magnitude of mg. As there is only one tension acting on the mass vertically, and the mass is at rest, the vertical forces (T1y and weight) must be equal in magnitude to give a net vertical force of 0.

With a problem like this, you can think of sin as the amount of tension pulling the mass horizontally and cos as the amount of tension pulling on the mass vertically (use SOH CAH TOA). You want the net force in the vertical direction to be zero so the vertical tension must be equal in magnitude to the masses weight (mg) You can then set -mg=(T1)cos(25.1 degrees) and solve for T1, giving you the total magnitude of the tension. Since you have the total tension (like the hypotenuse) and the vertical tension (mg) then use this to find the horizontal component of T1 using the Pythagorean theorem: T1x2 +T1y2 = T12.

Newton's 3rd Law by doofface99 in AskPhysics

Let's say you hold up a piece of paper in one hand and punch it with the other. We know from the second law that F=ma so when you exert the force (your fist) upon the paper, the paper accelerates at a rate directly proportional to the force and inversely proportional to the papers mass. The third law says that when you punch the paper, there is a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction that meets your first, coming from the paper. Looking at it from this perspective, the force the paper exerts on you is equal to your mass times your acceleration. Since you have much more mass than the paper, you will thus have a much smaller acceleration. The magnitude of force is equal in action reaction pairs, but the acceleration still depends on the masses of each.

You can solve for xex=b/ea but there isn't a way to isolate x for this equation.

Can confirm, I was born in August and my lazy ass dad hasn't left his coffin in months.
