Question by Emma: please read!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! why?
sorry for the wrong catorgory, but this one gets more answers.
Could i have borderline personality disorder or bipolar disorder? or just nothing?
well i was depressed for like 6 months. i’m not super happy now, but i can go for more than 3 minutes without fantazing about suicide so i’ll take that as improvement. actually right now i’m kind of apathetic. i can sort of hide my emotions during the day when i’m around people, but like at night i can’t really. i can just cry for an hour and feel hopeless. i did the wait thing. but i don’t really get the point. because my happiest i’m still sad. and i realized that life is pointless, and it only has meaning if u make it, and i can’t make it. i found one thing to hold onto, music. and for the BPD thing i have anger outbursts that are reallly extreme. and i have the hate love thing. but i also have people i just don’t care about period. so i don’t hate them. i also had the self hurt problem. but it’s not a big deal because it’s not enough to die. and i never touch my right wrist so even if it did go too deep i wouldn’t die. yea i have a note but it’s really $hitty. but yea i don’t want to do anything now, but it’s not like i want to be alive. so why should i try not to when i want to die? and for the BP thing, i don’t think i have it. but sometimes i just feel like on top of the world and everything is amazingly funny, but it never lasts for long. and then i just feel a lot worse afterwords. so do i maybe have one? are they even real? or just things doctors say cuz they want to make more money by giving u useless therapy and drugs. so yea or is it just normal cuz im a teenager and thats what ppl say and like its a lil common for teenagers to kill themselves. but i always act so happy around ppl its weird. im also really paranoid. i dont know if that has to do with anything. sorry for so much writing
no i dont believe in god. hes not real, and neither is heaven or hell. so those of u who waste ur life’s praying or at church will find out when u die. actually u won’t find out because after death there is nothing

Answer by Akon Lova
You need a companion of some sort.
I would suggest a dog or another human whom you can relate to or share your feelings with.

Music is always good, I love listening to it when I am exercising, so you should keep doing that. Maybe try a new genre like R&B because depressing music could have possibly made your condition worsen.

I don’t understand why you would want to kill yourself though, you haven’t even met the love of your life yet. And even if you did kill yourself where would you go after that? Do you think you would go to heaven or would it just end? Either way why not experience life on this earth for as long as you can because there are so many pleasures that you have yet to enjoy

Answer by Roz
First cut out ALL SALT. A good substitute for salt is dill weed Not the seeds. Just a little sprinkle will do.
Keep your legs elevated as often and as long as possible. Ice pack them while they are elevated. (A bag of frozen peas makes a good I pack.) When you go to bed, put pillows under your feet and calves to elevate them through the nite. Your Dr. should be giving you potassium tablets for the K drop. Knock off the fatty food, I use weight watchers cook book. great stuff and simple to use. Have you been checked for Hyperglycemia? If you are dangerously obese, most insurance will pay for gastric bye pass surgery. You do have to consult with several doctors to have this including a Psychiatrist. That is just to get you to the mind set for the surgery not because of a mental problem. Check with your doctor and ask him about the bye pass, usually they won’t suggest it unless you ask.
Hope this helps.
Good luck

Solar Sail problem physics please help?

November 24th, 2010
Comments Off

Question by illdieskating83: Solar Sail problem physics please help?
given info:
A solar sail allows a spacecraft to use radiation pressure for propulsion, similar to the way wind propels a sailboat. The sails of such spacecraft are made out of enormous reflecting panels. The area of the panels is maximized to catch the largest number of incident photons, thus maximizing the momentum transfer from the incident radiation.
For such spacecraft to work, the force from the radiation pressure exerted by the photons must be greater than the gravitational attraction to the star emitting the photons. The critical parameter is the area density (mass per unit area) of the sail.

Part A asks for the magnitude of the force due to the radiation pressure of the sunlight on the mirror. The answer for this part is (2(Intensity)(area))/speed of light (c).

Part B: Suppose that the mirror described in Part A is initially at rest a distance R away from the sun. What is the critical value of area density for the mirror at which the radiation pressure exactly cancels out the gravitational attraction from the sun?

Express your answer numerically, to two significant figures, in units of kilograms per meter squared.

To solve the second part of this problem you will need to know the following:

-the mass of the sun, M= 2*10^3 kg,
-the intensity of sunlight as a function of the distance R from the sun,
I(R)=3.2*10^25 (1/R^2) (W/m^2),
-the gravitational constant G=6.67*10^-11 (m^3/(kg*s^2) .

I cannot figure out how to find this last part as to where the pressure and area density are coming from what would this answer be? please help
I know that the area density is M/A so i need to figure out the Area that would cancel out the gravitational force and dont know how to do this. Im guessing that F=(2 (I(R))(A))/c which would give unknowns of distance R and the area A.

Best answer:

Answer by billrussell42
I disagree with your premise: “For such spacecraft to work, the force from the radiation pressure exerted by the photons must be greater than the gravitational attraction to the star emitting the photons.”

The spacecraft would start out in orbit around the sun, so the gravitational attraction of the sun is not relevant. It would spiral out to the destination, presumably another planet.

If the spacecraft had to directly oppose the gravity of the sun, it would need more force than a Saturn V rocket, not even remotely possible for a solar sail.

Please explain Law of Conservation of Energy?

July 24th, 2010

I understand that energy is converted from one form to another and that the law of conservation of energy states that energy is not created or destroyed. However, I do not understand how energy is conserved if it seems to eventually dissipate. For example, when a top spins kinetic energy is not lost because it is transformed into thermal energy due to friction. When the top eventually stops and when the ground “cools” and everything seems to have reverted back to what it was before, how is energy still conserved?
