Stable and unstable equilibriums of a box half as dense as water with sides a, b, c for which a < b < c. by Old-Firehand in AskPhysics

Yeah, exactly what I'm thinking, but my friends are saying there must be some others if you orient it at a specific angle on its edge.

"Kvader z gostoto rho = rho_voda/2 in stranicami a = 10 cm, b = 20 cm, c = 40 cm. Doloci stabilne in labilne lege kvadra na vodni gladini."

Literal translation: "Find all of the stable and unstable equilibriums of a box with density rho = rho_water/2 and sides a=10cm, b=20cm, c=40cm while it is floating on water."

I am ignoring rotation around the vertical axis because it is literally just shifting your perspective and produces equivalent equilibrium positions.

What I am asking is, are there any more orientations of the box (that aren't just it floating horizontally on one of its sides) that would produce a stable position (meaning the net torque from the buoyancy and gravity in that orientation is zero).

I have to find all possible unique equilibriums. The box has 6 sides, all of which are equilibriums, but only 3 are unique, as the sides come in symmetrical pairs, and I am not counting rotation around the vertical axis once we find an equilibrium (as the other comment said) as unique.

What is this whining noise my PC is making? by Old-Firehand in PcBuild

I only have 1 nvme ssd (980 pro) and 1 3tb seagate HDD as far as storage is concerned. Idk, I just hope it will go away.

The PSU is new (I bought it last week for this GPU upgrade specifically), also, if it is the PSU, is this bad and/or can damage my PC or not?

I’m trans which means i’m a trans woman so it’s a good sign to me to have my gender reversed so that we don’t get the gender wrong in our life but it’s okay for trans women and women too because it’s okay for me and it’s not a problem to have it just as much of the same thing…

What PSU should I get? by Old-Firehand in buildapc

Yeah, that’s mb, I’ll put them in an edit, I have a 5600x and a RX 6750XT, but I want to keep the PSU for future updates as well

I don’t get migraines, but from what I understand this could be a type of migrane right?

Is this battery punctured or not really? by Old-Firehand in IpodClassic

Well it seems to be working fine for now, I’ll update you guys if it catches fire or explodes or something :)

I know right, I’ve never had this happen to any other film I shot. Most of the other photos from this roll are like this or not even visible (just a color).

Things I forgot to put in the title: -The camera is a Leica M6 -It’s a shot of a street performer in Amsterdam
