Everyone has experienced something that doesn't make a lick of God damn sense and no matter how hard we try, we still don't get it. What shit don't make sense to you?

The Welsh Language. I'm forced to "learn" it at school, and I hate it. All of it. I've never had a knack for languages bar English.

Thankfully, however, I'm off to Sixth Form next year, and don't have to partake in any further Welsh lessons.

Think about it.
We learn the German language for two years, with clubs for it.
You have extended German as a choice for GCSE's and A levels, and in history, EVERYTHING for the past couple of years has been about the German's. From the German's point of view.

Get over them already!

People that can't conjegate do not make much sense to me.

Yes it was a cheap shot but it had to be done.

[Put 2 eq'ns of motion together]
[Sub in average speed somewhere near the end]
[v values cancel]

1 = 2.

I've been informed there is a reason for this, but I'm not clever enough to figure it out.

Half of Starship Troopers the book.
There is a book? And you say only a half? How would you describe the other half?

OT: Using a COM port and Telnet to try and format a damn PS3 Dev Kit. It's a mess.

I'd be interested to see the math if you have it on hand.

The other half is pretty cool, being hard science fiction and all. Starship Troopers the book has Space Marines with Powered Armour and it's deemed responsible for largely starting up the SM genre (by the people who actually know it). It has no cardboard armour soldiers and little battles.

I'd recommend it to you.

Well its probably better then hearing about the German's from the perspective of everyone who hates them. I'm really tired of reading Holocaust books for English class.

I'd prefer to just learn something cool, like the Egyptions or Aztects.

right...

v = u + at and s = ut + 1/2 at^2 and v = s/t

v = final velocity
u = inital velocity
a = acceleration
t = time
s = displacement (distance)

Assume an object begins from rest - so u = 0
That means:

v = at and s = 1/2at^2

a = v/t and a = 2s/t^2 ...... (make a independent of both terms)

v/t = 2s/t^2

v = 2s/t ......... (multiply by t)

v = 2v ............ (v = s/t)

1 = 2 ......... (divide by v)
------------------------------------------

Maybe it's to do with the fact that the first v is instantaneous, and the second v is average. But wouldn't that mean that v(i) = 2v(a)? That definatly doesn't make sense.

Me too, I'd much rather learn about Ancient Greece or something than British or German history...

OT: Uh...I don't know, I don't trouble myself over things that confuse me, I usually just make a note to learn more about it later and ignore it. So I can't think of anything.

Yeah, it's to do with the fact that one of the v's is instantaneous velocity at the end and the other v is average velocity.
Since there is constant acceleration, it makes sense that the average velocity would be the velocity of the object when it's half way through. The velocity of the object half way through would be half of the instantaneous velocity at the end.

I hope that's clear, but it's probably not.
