/sci/ - Science & Math

So wait a moment here. Nuclear power is used to heat water. Why don't they build a facility over an active vulcano, and use that to heat the water instead?

Hi /sci/
I'm a bit slow. Well I feel that way because my question I have.
I want to know how magnets work. I looked it up. I repeatedly got magnets are surrounded by magnet fields etc.
I just want answers to 1) what material makes a magnet? 2) how are they made? 3) How do they work?

If you don't think we can and will run out of oil... well you're beyond fucking retarded. There have been plenty like you thought history. Oh by the way how did all of man's blunders and shortcomings work out for you?

Can /sci help me with this ?

With my current math i am working on limits, now me has been told that if you have the situation 0/0 there is a point in the graph which does not exist and that you need to find this point. and the question is how do i do this?

example which leads to 0/0

Lim x² + 2x - 3/ x -1
x ->

hope you can help

im stuck at quest 56. help?

the fuck?

hey guys! I have a question: after googling it several times, I didn't find anything that was satisfying enough. I don't live in the USA, and I wanted to know what was usually studied in calc I, II, III for example, and all the other courses one can take. Is there a place where I could find this kind of information?
Thank you for your time!

Dear Science,
Why?
Sincerely, Fuck You.

Wait, so this body emits waste as solid, liquid AND gas?

Does it do anything besides emit waste?

Since when does engineering fall into a category with philosophy, social studies, and art? In order to progress it's necessary to have engineers to put science into use and it's a respectable course of study. OP confirmed as a pure science major with inflated opinion of himself.

programming noob here. just started using Code::Blocks 10.05 a few hours ago but i have a problem. i'm trying to export a basic console application but every time i try to run it from the folder it's exported to it just closes after a fraction of a second. i can't even get the default hello world to run.

anyone know how to fix this?

Discuss.

Japan is taking moe a little too far. Don't you think? I am open minded, I get that some people like what I don't like, in fact I watch some squid girl and Kaiji (just how is Kaiji so kawaii?), but they seem to be turning everything into a little girl these days.

wtf is this nonsense?
