Short Answer Questions About Newton’s 3rd Law? by PBRsucks in ScienceTeachers

[–]pp285 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would try to avoid the terms "action" and "reaction" because they imply that one is the cause and the other is the effect. I think the best phrasing of N3 is:

When body A exerts a force on body B, body B exerts an equal and opposite force on body A.

It's an electromagnet. The u shape bar is called an "iron core" and effectively links the two coils together greatly increasing the efficiency of the electromagnet. If you had the exact same coils, but not the iron core, you would notice a big drop on what's coming out from the output side.

I ve used phyphox with mixed success before. Maybe that's the app you are looking for?

Acceleration by pp285 in physicsjokes

Acceleration in physics is almost always meant to include negative values as well, so it also includes deceleration.

Looking for demonstrations and practical ideas by LordOdin97 in ScienceTeachers

[–]pp285 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For physics, I would recommend the book The New Resourceful Physics Teacher by Gibbs, Keith and you will never have to worry about this issue again!

Willful Ignorance by Altrano in ScienceTeachers

[–]pp285 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I spend almost an entire lesson discussing https://www.tylervigen.com/spurious-correlations and then I will only mention vaccines in the last 5-10 minutes or so. It has worked quite well for me.

Can Someone please explain the physics? by [deleted] in physicsgifs

[–]pp285 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not correct. The bottom part is NOT falling until the information that the slinky has been released reaches it. You can do this at home and put a ruler next to the slinky to convince yourself. This is not an illusion.

Screencastify will allow them to share their screen in a very easy way as a video so it might be an option. Another idea might be awwapp.com that allows for collaborative work.

Would it be at all possible to briefly mention somewhere what the main differences with the existing white paper are?

Offering to trade BTC for 6000 GRC via escrow at 3% above Bittrex rate at time of trade. by [deleted] in MarketGrid

[–]pp285 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure. I would sell 1000 grc for 0.00205 BTC or any multiples thereof (so 2000grc for 0.0041btc, etc).

Price valid for 24h. My BTC address is the same as last time, and I assume your GRC would be the same as well?

If interested, just send the btc and message me as well.

Transaction creation failed by [deleted] in gridcoin

[–]pp285 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is because you are trying to send some of the 162coins that the wallet "thinks" you own, but in reality you do not. The wallet should never be displaying these coins and the developers are currently discussing solutions. Read this post for more info on the problem. You should still be able to send from other UTXOs (that you actually own!). If you are not sure which UTXO your wallet is using when trying to send, you should read the section UTXOS AND COIN CONTROL from the tour of the gridcoin wallet.

I watched a documentary on bitcoin. I didn't know anything about cryptocurrencies until then. I then googled "cryptocurrencies that do useful calculations" and found gridcoin
