Can somebody help me with this physics problem?
A solid bowling ball of radius R and mass M is released from the hand of a bowler, at floor-level, with linear speed V but angular speed omega=0. There is a coefficient of kinetic friction of mu between the ball and the floor. How much time and distance is required for the ball to begin rolling without slipping? what is V and omega at that time? You should notice something very interesting. Please don't just give the answer and show how it was solved! Thank you.

2 AnswersMathematics9 years agoDoes this sound like I got roofied?
Ok so.. I know this usually does not happen to guys. Basically I was at my friend's college partying and we had liquor and we were like we need a chaser. I don't remember how it came to be but somehow we ended up with a 2 liter sprite in our hands it was like 11pm.. Next we left the party after finishing the captain and sprite, went back to my friend's dorm, got more alcohol, and returned. We drank and eventually some stuff went down and they kicked everyone out, it was about 12 am at this time. We were walking laughing having a good time because my friend stole their orange juice so we could use it as chaser =]. So basically the next thing I know it's 5:30 am, and it was like one of those how did I get here drunk wake ups, except I was awake. It felt as if I'd been in a hypnotic state zoned out and I returned to reality I was just staring at the floor by some building like 6 blocks from my car and I was like wtf where is everyone how did I get here. My friend who didn't drink that sprite and did not experience this was wondering why my friend and I were acting so weird he said I was not talking and I was walking 30 feet ahead of everyone with my head down. But yeah what kind of drug erases all memory and puts you into a hypnotic state without knocking you out? I've been drunk many many many many times and I have NEVER experienced that. It was like my soul reentering my body it was so trippy!
3 AnswersBeer, Wine & Spirits10 years agoWhat is the point of spreading the gospel?
Ok to start off I am an Agnostic but I have a question regarding the spreading of the gospel. A lady at my school came up to me and started preaching religion so I asked her about tribes who have never heard of it and she said they're ok because they haven't been taught...
BUT wouldn't that mean that spreading the gospel would do no good but only harm? It would just keep the "enlightened" people who accept it where they were to begin with and condemn the people who reject it... and if ignorance of the gospel is not ok then that would be even more unfair because you'd be screwed just based on how you're raised...
23 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoDo I have a possible case to sue?
Ok so here's what happened. My friend and I got a Deferred Entry of Judgment for 2 counts of felony burglary at the age of 15. Our names were put in the newspaper AND they said we were convicted. Do we have a case against the newspaper for putting our names in as minors AND saying we were convicted? This was in San Bernardino County in California in case you need that information. Also, I was informed that I have 2 years to sue from the day I turn 18 and we are in that time frame. Thanks!

1 AnswerCorporations1 decade agoDoes this seem fair to you guys?
So, my best friend and I got taken to our first party like a year ago by my older brother. I found out now that he told my friend that he doesn't want me coming to parties with him anymore just because he thinks its awkward for me to be around his friends, because I'm his little brother. Isn't just kind of messed up that he still invites my friend though, shouldn't it be like, I don't hang out with your friends you don't hang out with mine? I just think it's messed up to completely exclude me like that for such a dumb reason...
2 AnswersFriends1 decade agoWould you forgive your friend?
Alright so here's the story...
My friend, has a friend, who is a girl, who I am also friends with, but had never met until this last week. He knew her because he's an actor and she worked on a show with him. Anyways, she came up to his apartment and we were all supposed to hang out. So I have been known to get a little wild when I'm drunk, more than normal, but I have calmed down. So he invites my brother over instead of me, thinking that him, her, and I would do the same thing the next day. He didn't want me over because it might get too crazy. Now, he thought I'd get mad if he told me, so him, my brother, and the girl all created a story, saying how my friend and the girl didn't do anything, and my brother was never even there. All three lied to me. So, I knew something was up because I saw facebook posts about drinking and ****, and people becoming friends that shouldn't know each other, so I asked what was up and they still continued to lie about it. I eventually texted a guy that was there and was slick and he forgot I wasn't supposed to know. So, I confronted my friend and he told me he was sorry, but that the only reason he did it was because I'm known to not take no for an answer, so basically, ignorance is bliss. Do you guys think that is justification to lie to me about this? I want to forgive him but I just can't get passed the lying. What do you guys think?
Also, this is my best friend I'm talking about, not just a friend, We've been friends since we were 10.
2 AnswersFriends1 decade agoWhat do I do about having sex with my friend?
So I this girl I've known since Freshman year and I had sex. She left my school in 10th grade but we talked on the phone a lot. I had to go pick up my brother because he was drunk, and she was drunk, and I hadn't seen her since 10th grade. So I went to her house and she got in my car. Things just kind of got out of hand and we ended up in the backseat... Now it's really awkward and we've hardly talked. What can I do to fix this? I always thought of her as a good friend and I let my urges get the better of me.
3 AnswersFriends1 decade agoWould this be a good way to induce a lucid dream?
So I had an idea. Make a recording of myself talking in a different voice. It would go something like this. "Ethan, I need to you listen to me. Rub your hands together while I tell you. You are dreaming right now if you are hearing me say this. Enjoy." I could put it on my iPod and have it at a somewhat low volume so I don't wake up from the noise. I could have the recording be like 6 hours of silence before hand so that it would do it while I'm in the deep stages of sleep. I've had two full on full control lucid dreams and I find them quite amazing. I wanted to know what experience lucid dreamers thought of this idea.

6 AnswersBeer, Wine & Spirits1 decade agoWould my friend be allowed to bring an electronic cigarette to Grad Nite at Disneyland?
We want to bring an electronic cigarette. It does not use tobacco, but nicotine solution, which is vaporized. The vapor produced not does linger, and does not smell, except when smelled coming out of the persons mouth. Do you think we would be allowed to bring this in? It has no adverse health effects as far as studies have shown, and it can't be used to do weed so that isn't an issue.
