I need to know the resistvity value of copper, please people. I have two figures in front of me and I need to decide... NOW.

Don't worry I'm not just doing this for the fun of it, it's for Physics.

Cheers

Meh. Didn't help that for my other subjects I was doing English Lit and Computer Studies. They didn't exactly fit together very well.

Heh. I know how you feel; no-one told me that A-Level Natural Geography was just Physics and Chemistry with added trees.

This reminds me of my college years. I really do wish, looking back, that I had figured out I was rubbish at Physics before choosing to study it as one of my A-Levels. :-s

Have you seen Bad Boys 2?

Woo-saaaah

Heh. Sorry, but I just never get tired of seeing Forest tie himself in knots and run screaming from having to think. Always makes me smile.

As opposed to the scientific calculation that went into the answer "God made everything in 7 days"? Could you show the working out for that one please dear boy?

Or maybe you'd like to explain just how you worked out the age of the earth? Because, y'know, adding together the ages of everyone in the Bible is a method that simple reeks of science.

Oh, and you never did bother to explain what you think the definition of a closed system was. After all, you banged on about the 2nd Law for long enough. I would have thought you'd be delighted to show your expertise on the matter by stating why this little planet of ours is a closed system under the 2nd Law. In your own time my cowardly little friend...

I don't fancy one much either. But hey, all I wanted to find out was the resistivity value of copper.

I'm not sure my blood pressure would survive another one of these.

Not really. There's still no science involved in that answer.

Sorry;

Fifteen billion two hundred and fifty seven million nine hundred and forty three thousand eight hundred and twelve years ago.

Better?
