Can I view full text conversations on my computer?
Is there a program that allows me to view my text conversations on my computer via plugging my phone in to see FULL conversations?
I have an android phone, Nexus 4 on Kit Kat, if it helps.
Thanks!
2 AnswersCell Phones & Plans7 years agoPercent copper in this copper-zinc alloy?
I'm just..confused...
The density of a material made up of two or more different substances will be a weighted average of the substances that make it up. (what is a weighted average?) Suppose you have a block of copper-zinc alloy that has a density of 7.76 g/cm^3. Calculate the percent copper in the alloy. (density of copper = 8.92 g/cm^3 ; density of zinc = 7.16 g/cm^3)
I'm just not sure what to do. Since copper is more dense than zinc, I'm assuming that there is more copper in this alloy than zinc, I just don't know how to calculate the exact percentage.
Any pointers are appreciated! Thanks!
1 AnswerChemistry8 years agoWeight of helium in a balloon?
I need a little guidance for a problem in my class.
Archimedes's principle states that the lifting force (buoyancy) of a balloon is equal to the weight of the air displaced by the balloon. What is the buoyancy force generated by a 30x10^6 ft^3 helium-filled, high-altitude balloon, assuming the air density at 120,000 feet is 1.27x10^-5 slug/ft^3 ?
The weight is around 12,200 pounds.
Now:
What is the weight of the helium from the problem above if the specific gas constant for helium is R = 12,425 (ft lb)(slug degrees Rankine)?
the professor said that this problem was a little tricky and that you should write down the equation of state for both air and helium and compare the two.
so the equation of state is:
pressure = (density)(specific gas constant)(temperature)
I can find the temperature at 120,000 ft with a simple Google search and I know the density of air, as it is given above.
I'm just unsure of how to get helium's weight...
and I know weight = (mass)(gravity)
I'm just a little stuck.
Can one of you show me the way?
1 AnswerPhysics8 years agobouyant force for this problem?
I'm looking to check my work for a problem I had in class.
What is the buoyancy force generated by a 30x10^6 ft^3 helium-filled, high-altitude balloon, assuming the air density at 120,000 feet is 1.27x10^-5 slug/ft^3 ? Archimedes's principle states that the buoyancy of a balloon is equal to the weight of the air displaced by the balloon.
So it looks like I'm given density and a volume, so I can calculate mass. I did and got 371. Is that correct? If not, can someone offer some help?
1 AnswerPhysics8 years agoWhich number is more precise?
How is precision determined with whole numbers? Which number is more precise 10,000 or 12,5000? Or what about 15 and 7? I ask because we're working with significant figures and scientific notation in my chemistry class.
Thanks!
2 AnswersChemistry8 years agoCan someone help me identify a Shakespeare quote about suicide?
In my psychology textbook last year there was a section of the book about suicide. It quoted Shakespeare, but I cannot remember the quote -_- only bits and pieces.
It talked about life being trapped or in a cage and that it would "escape" if it had the chance.

2 AnswersLaptops & Notebooks8 years agoI'm looking for an old cartoon/animated kids film...?
It had something to do with a man and a steam engine or crane, or some other construction/industrial equipment.
I think it was a musical and some of the lyrics of a song, if i remember correctly, went something like "no one wants us... no one needs us..."
I apologize if this little bit of information isn't sufficient, but it's all I've got.
Thanks!

So I have recieved an iphone 3gs with 6.1.3. I cannot downgrade, as I do not have anty shsh blobs and don't really want to try the methods of downgrading that "don't require them."
Do I just have to hold out for an unlocking tutorial or something? I guess jailbreaking and unlocking 6.1.3 is very new, so I should wait yes? I don't want to pay for unlocking.

2 AnswersMathematics9 years agoTo what extent did the Compromise 1850 cause the civil war?
We are writing an essay in my AP U.S. history class this week and I'm a little confused about this prompt. From what I understand, the Compromise of 1850 DELAYED the civil war for a decade. Of course it failed because there was obviously enough tension between the north and south to start a war ten years later (with the help of a few other events that pushed the south toward secession). I'm just a little confused as to how I'm supposed to answer this question. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

So I'm going to be a junior in high school and it's time to take the SAT. I know some people take classes and some people just use those big books. I am thinking about doing both.

Are the Princeton Review prep courses good? Also, which book is better? The College Board or Princeton Review?

I know I'll probably be encouraged not to, but why not? If it has all the rules and stuff, shouldn't this suffice as my "driver's ed?"
