    To achieve this level of precision, the clock ticks from the GPS satellites must be known to an accuracy of 20-30 nanoseconds. However, because the satellites are constantly moving relative to observers on the Earth, effects predicted by the Special and General theories of Relativity must be taken into account to achieve the desired 20-30 nanosecond accuracy.

    Because an observer on the ground sees the satellites in motion relative to them, Special Relativity predicts that we should see their clocks ticking more slowly (see the Special Relativity lecture). Special Relativity predicts that the on-board atomic clocks on the satellites should fall behind clocks on the ground by about 7 microseconds per day because of the slower ticking rate due to the time dilation effect of their relative motion.

    Further, the satellites are in orbits high above the Earth, where the curvature of spacetime due to the Earth's mass is less than it is at the Earth's surface. A prediction of General Relativity is that clocks closer to a massive object will seem to tick more slowly than those located further away (see the Black Holes lecture). As such, when viewed from the surface of the Earth, the clocks on the satellites appear to be ticking faster than identical clocks on the ground. A calculation using General Relativity predicts that the clocks in each GPS satellite should get ahead of ground-based clocks by 45 microseconds per day.
    >> Anonymous 11/05/10(Fri)19:58 No.12693128
    >>12693115
    The combination of these two relativitic effects means that the clocks on-board each satellite should tick faster than identical clocks on the ground by about 38 microseconds per day (45-7=38)! This sounds small, but the high-precision required of the GPS system requires nanosecond accuracy, and 38 microseconds is 38,000 nanoseconds. If these effects were not properly taken into account, a navigational fix based on the GPS constellation would be false after only 2 minutes, and errors in global positions would continue to accumulate at a rate of about 10 kilometers each day! The whole system would be utterly worthless for navigation in a very short time. This kind of accumulated error is akin to measuring my location while standing on my front porch in Columbus, Ohio one day, and then making the same measurement a week later and having my GPS receiver tell me that my porch and I are currently about 5000 meters in the air somewhere over Detroit.

    The engineers who designed the GPS system included these relativistic effects when they designed and deployed the system. For example, to counteract the General Relativistic effect once on orbit, they slowed down the ticking frequency of the atomic clocks before they were launched so that once they were in their proper orbit stations their clocks would appear to tick at the correct rate as compared to the reference atomic clocks at the GPS ground stations. Further, each GPS receiver has built into it a microcomputer that (among other things) performs the necessary relativistic calculations when determining the user's location.

    Relativity is not just some abstract mathematical theory: understanding it is absolutely essential for our global navigation system to work properly!

    Electricity is a mystery. No one has ever observed it or heard it or felt it. We can see and feel and hear only what electricity does. We know that it makes light bulbs shine and irons heat up and telephones ring. But we cannot say what electricity itself is like.

    We cannot even say where electricity comes from. Some scientists say that the sun may be the source of most electricity. Other think that the movement of the Earth produces some of it. All anyone knows is that electricity seems to be everywhere and that there are many ways to bring it forth.

    A starship following the designs of Project Orion (one relying on nuclear detonations for propulsion) could reach a theoretical maximum speed of 0.08 to 0.1c. At this speed it would reach the system closest to Sol, Alpha Centauri, in 44 years (minimum). It could reach this speed in 36 days at a more-or-less constant acceleration of 1g. We have had the capability to build such a vessel since about 1960.

    black holes sometimes appear to give off some sort of radiation. which is impossible because once you go past the event horizon nothing can escape including light. stephen hawking theorised that particles pop into existence right on the border with the event horizon, so for example if an electron suddenly popped into existence the positron that would have to pop into existence also would get sucked into the event horizon while the electron escapes to then be detected by us.

    There are two kidneys. Blood is constantly flowing through them, and being cleaned by thousands of filtering capsules irrigated by the small capilliaries from the renal intercostalobular arteries.

    Blood is filtered through the nephron filtering units which I will not go into detail here. Blood is filtered, concentrations are rebalanced and some initially removed substance are readded based on concentration levels of various ions.Undesired products and filtrats and filtered through the minor and major calixes into the renal pelvis. From the renal pevlis, These undesired materials are transported to a storage bladder for later removal from the system.

    There are many different sizes of infinity, each strictly larger than the last.

    Count each whole number from 0 upwards, you will have an infinite number.

    But if you match those 1-to-1 with numbers from 0 upwards including all fractions, the latter will be infinitely larger (you can already map out everything in the earlier infinite with this new in just the space from 0 to 1).

    Also, birth-rates are lower in developed nations. Whether this is because humans naturally breed less in the advanced environment, or because of some other reason, it gives hope for the future. Why? Because it means that those arguing against effective immortality for reasons of over-crowding are incorrect.

    For blood pressure regulation, this is a simple chart that details a few of the major players. This diagram does not include chemoreceptors in the carotids for regulating blood chemistry to the brain.

    By baroreceptors, in this case, they usually mean the ones near the start of the aortic arch, which keeps blood track how hard your heart is pushing blood out....The Cardiac/vagus square is referring to the vagus nerve which specifically regulates impules to the heart. Without this nerve working, the heart would beat at it's own rate, which is faster then resting heart rate, in most people. I'll link a neat image of hear beat regulation in a sec....

    That aside,

    CO refers to the output of blood by the heart per minute.

    SV refers to the volume of blood put out of your left ventricle after a single contraction. The volume is dependent on the amount sent from the right ventricle. SV is also affected by the the amount, pressure and rate, pre-existing before that heart beat... I don't know fluid dynamics very well so I won't talk about that...

    Let me just post more diagrams...

    Wisdom teeth are fine for me, and they do have their use in eating.

    We do use the appendix, it's handy. We can survive without it, but it's not as fun. In a modern society it's use in maintaining bacterial populations is less important as a seed colony when we don't have diarrhea.

    Renin/angiotensin pathway with alot of stuff most people don't really care about.

    Cliffnotes summary:

    Renin is secreted by the kidney in a response to a longterm drop in blood pressure, angiotensin I is converted, thanks to ACE(Angiotensin Converting Enzyme) into Angiotensin II. The presence of Angiotensi II results in increased vasoconstriction (smooth muscles in muscular arteries tighten, increasing tension and blood pressure.)

    Sorry dude, but wisdom teeth don't really have a use in eating. You have to make a concerted effort to use them; and even then you are wasting time because they are so inefficient at that task.

    Wisdom teeth may be useless in a world full of dentists. But as soon as that health care bubble collapses you will be glad if some extra teeth pushing along the jawbone close the gaps in your grin.

    It strikes me as something that would get fouled very quickly if you weren't pouring exclusively fluid down there. Muddy hands crusting it? Soapy streaks running down it?

    It looks pretty in a showroom, but would lose its appeal quickly.
