What do you guys know about DNA-adducts?
what causes them, what do they cause and what can they be used for?

What the fuck?

Ok I'm puzzled by a physics question.
A student with mass=50kg bends his legs until his centre of mass drops 20 cm. He then jumps vertically upwards so that his centre of mass is 35 cm higher than normal. What is the force (if you presume the acceleration is constant) on his pelvis.

Nuclear pulse propulsion is a bad idea in the atmosphere of an inhabited planet, mmkay.

Let V be some n-dimensional vectorspace over K and f an endomorphism of V.
Theorem: f is diagonizable iff the minimal polynomial splits over K and has pairwise distinct roots.

Why is that?
I know f is diagonizable iff the characteristic polynomial splits over K and the multiplicities of the roots in the characteristic polynomial coincides with the dimension of the respective eigenspace.

Now I can prove the theorem with the Jordan Normal form, but that's a few calibers too big. I think there's a much more basic proof for this.

Anyone any ideas?
