2 AnswersReptiles10 years agoWhat to do with my girlfriends mom?
My girlfriends mom is a tad over controlling, and its getting to be about prom time. Her mom told her that it the girl picks out the corsage and bootenneer, and the boy pays. I asked if i could go with them and they said it was alright. I showed up 5 minutes late and they had both picked out already and expected me to just go with it. I just said that i didn't like yellow and it turned out to be a huge deal... My mom pays for both flowers, and we leave. My girlfriend and her mom go to lunch and gossip about how big of a fit i threw. What should i tell my girlfriend. If it helps you understand the situation better we have been dating for 2 years.

6 AnswersComputer Networking1 decade agoWhat math program is this?
Today my teacher was telling me about a program that she recommends to her students and i can not remember the name of it. All i can remember is the program cost about $150-160. It covered math 3 through pre-cal/trig and it was kinda like a video but i think it had some interactive elements. She showed me a preview and it looked like a flash video with lined paper for the background and would go back and forth between writing and a calculator. I was told that it is orated by a Harvard grad. She also told me that she has been recommending it to students for a long time so its not new. If i could just get the name of this that would be great, but a link to the website would be better!

4 AnswersGreen Living1 decade agoCan a teacher get fired for running an experiment on her students?
I am in 10th grade Pre-Ap Biology. In my school there is two pre-ap classes for this course. It just worked out that one of these classes was all girls and one mixed. Our teacher thought it was a good idea to run an experiment on the girls to see which class will learn more. She shows obvious bias in that the teaching lessons are completely different, but still claims that the other class is doing better. I have confronted her on the subject and she said that the other class is way ahead of us but my girlfriend who is in the other class said she doesn't understand or have ever had our home work. Is this legal or moral? If not how do I confront my administrators.

2 AnswersProgramming & Design1 decade agoHow could you get multiple bursts of high voltage electrical energy?
Could i get lots of volts into a electromagnet in quick bursts such as 50 a second?
How would i do this?
My initial thought is caps but they take to long to charge.
I would also like to include a micro-controller to get an exact number of bursts.
2 AnswersEngineering1 decade agoWould there be any problem with rapidly turning on an off electromagnet with capacitors and transistors?
Say you charged some caps in a parallel circuit and you discharged them rapidly into a electromagnet over and over in succession?
Say 10 caps where charged and you discharged the first one then the second... so on
If you controlled these with a micro controller how fast could you get it to work?
