  • Someone please please help me find this Chinese music video.?

    Okay so in the video this guy with really bad teeth is going to war and it shows the with waiting with the son at home for many seasons. When the guy comes home there are another two or three kids there and his son is full grown, but still in a diaper. Then it shows two men fighting over the course of a year or so. One of the men has a big bushy beard. At the end of the fight, the one guy cuts all the hair of the other's face, and it turns out to be the wife from the beginning of the video. It's really ridiculous and funny, but I cant find it.

  • If the waves have a frequency of 60.0 kHz, what would be the required slit separation for observing the fourth?

    A way to detect termites inside wooden structures has been developed at the University of Minnesota. A detector perceives the high-frequency sound waves produced by the termites’ chewing. These waves are then converted into electromagnetic signals. Suppose these signals are at “long” radio wavelengths and that a giant double-slit apparatus has been built to observe interference of these radio waves.

    If the waves have a frequency of 60.0 kHz, what would be the required slit separation for observing the fourth-order maximum at 52.0°?

  • Which of the following events does not happen in the passage?

    Early that morning, a young, blue-eyed detective in a beige coat stood in the open doorway of the motel room, closing an umbrella. A policeman friend had secretly allowed the detective to enter the room with the understanding that nothing would be touched. Though this restriction made the job more difficult, the confident detective knew that well-trained eyes could find a lot of clues on their own. Suddenly, the detective was nearly knocked off balance by a muddy dog chasing a black cat into the room. By the time the cat and dog ran outside, the detective knew that there was an embarrassing phone call to make. The day was off to a bad start.

    Which of the following events does not happen in the passage?

    A. A black cat is chased by a muddy dog.

    B. A detective looks for clues in a motel room.

    C. A detective is nearly knocked off balance.

    D. A police officer gives a detective permission to look around.

    I've read this repeatedly, but I'm having trouble with it.

  • Where does this story take place?

    The air was cool, warmed only by a brilliant sun that stood high in the sky. The bare branches of the trees swelled with leaves that were about to emerge. Green spikes were thrusting through the earth in the flower beds. In sunny spots in the yard, the yellow buds of daffodils were practically open, and hyacinth clusters were changing from green to pink or white. Although it was only the middle of March, spring was coming to Atlanta, Georgia.

    A. in a backyard in Atlanta, Georgia

    B. in a park in Atlanta, Georgia
