  • Maths/Physics HELP!!?

    I have had a problem set for me to solve. Trouble is, I don't know the EQUATIONS to solve the problem. I cannot find them anywhere. Even google seems to be getting confused by what it is I'm looking for. Below is the problem. Can anyone help me by letting me know the equations for each part. The answers I'm hoping to arrive at by myself (otherwise I'm being lazy, and I do want to learn!)

    A pedestrian is hit on a pedestrian crossing. Measurements show that the pedestrian had walked 4m from the start of the crossing before being struck by a car. (Assume the pedestrian's walking speed was 1.2m/s)

    Police measurements show that the car skidded 20.4m before hitting the pedestrian, and came to rest a further 25.6m beyond the point of impact. The driver claims that he was travelling at less than 50mph (80km/h), and that the pedestrian came out of no where.

    Using that above information, calculate whether the vehicle was travelling less than 50mph, and investigate the driver's claim that the pedestrian came out of nowhere.

    Any help on this would be MUCH appreciated! Thank you!

  • How can I transfer my achievement points from a deleted Xbox profile to another, new profile?

    I set up XBox Live for the first time recently, and in doing so created a new profile on my XBox (I don't know why it didn;t offer to use the one I already had..) Because itwas getting annoying signing in and out of profiles when I went from single player and signed onto the Live account, I deleted my original profile - it wasn't set up with Live anyway, and didn't serve a purpose - except for all the achievements and the associated points, and game saves etc..

    How can I get all those achievements and game saves to show up on the newly created profile.

    Its the same XBox, the same games, and its still me - I just cannot figure it out!

  • how do i connect my xbox 360 to an HD tv? I've tried but there's no sound?

    I've put the green, blue and red HD cables into the back of the tv - the picture is amazing, but there's no sound.. Any clues?

    The sound works perfectly well when I use the scart lead instead..

  • Should I stay with my girlfriend or not? Opinions please!?

    I have been with my girlfriend for nearly 9 months. I am in love with her. However, for the last 2 or 3 months we have been having more and more frequent arguments, and it has come to the stage where despite my love for her (and I know she loves me), where I wonder if we are right for each other. I'm no longer sure if she is the one.

    I'm not stupid. I'm a 22 year old man. But I feel I need other people's thoughts and opinions on this one. Its beginning to really get me down.

    Should I wait and see if things improve, or should I cut and run, knowing I'll hurt her (and myself) in the process? I'm so confused about it all.

    Thanks

  • I'm going to an Army Careers office tomorrow...?(UK only)?

    And I wondered - should I address the guy who's running it by his rank and last name (as I already know it) or should I just leave that bit out when introducing myself.

    "Hello Sergeant Baker I'm Oliver.."

    OR

    "Hello, I'm Oliver.."

    I am a civilian and have an application being processed..

    What do you think?

  • Laptop battery/charging problems?

    I have a Toshiba laptop. Just recently it's been unable to maintain a mains power connection and switches to battery source, even if all the wires are plugged in. If I continually unplug and plug back in the wire into the back of my laptop, every now and then it'll start charging again for 5 minutes or so, and then just flick back to wearing down the battery.

    Anyone have any ideas what this means, and what can be done to fix it?

    Thanks for your help!

  • Why do countries such as North Korea and Iran feel the need to develop nuclear bombs?

    The majority of the counties in the world have peace treaties, and aren't at war. Why is it, that countries such as Iran and North Korea feel the need to develop nuclear bombs, when there is no threat posed to them from anyone else?

    I understand that having nuclear bombs is a form of defence: a last resort to wipe out another nation before they wipe you out. But if in this day and age no country poses the threat of nuclear action or war against your own country, why is there a need to go nuclear?

    It is my belief that North Korea and Iran could well be threatening the very delicate stability of the world with their actions, which is unnecessary.

    Are their actions purely to be up to scratch with the rest of the world, or do their actions have a sinister reason to them?

    Are their actions to improve defence, or add another element to a possible attack?

    What are your thoughts on this serious matter?

  • Am I Bisexual, or merely curious?

    I'm 20 years old. I've slept with 14 women. But sometimes I wonder what being with a man would be like. I'm naturally a bit camp anyway, but not gay. I'm definately into women! The idea of being with man doesn't bother me. Could go through with it if the opportunity arose I think. I've always felt like this: since the age of 15.

    Am I merely curious, or could I actually be Bi?
