    Math Help

    Glorious Math guru's, please shower me with your superior intellect. A ball is thrown down at 20ms^-1 speed from the top of a building. The building is 125 meters tall. The distance travelled before it reaches the ground is as follows: S=U0t + 1/2gt^2 U0 = 20ms^-1 g = 10ms^-2 t= time a) Find the time for the ball to drop a fifth of the height of the building b) Find the time for the ball to reach the ground Now, i feel fairly confident that i have solved this myself. Having converted this into a quadratic equation i have: a) t = 1s B) t = 3.385s However, when checking my answer against an online caluclator (https://www.calculatorsoup.com/calculators/physics/displacement_v_a_t.php) it states the answer is a complex conjugate. Now, i'm struggling to see how they have come up with a complex number here (i thought for it to be a complex number, the number you find the square root of (#^2- 4ac) had to be negative ie J = -1) but part of the course i am doing does involve complex numbers and i'm slightly worried they are trying to catch you out a bit. Any help for a dunce would be appreciated.
  2. TC was sound. Come back TC
  3. Got to agree with via. You can booze in all weathers. Go and get your knee down!

  5. Not a fan of Motea since they f**ked me over for some levers however whilst on their site i did notice a rather tidy bike stand similar to the Abba Skylift with the difference being that the Motea one is electric. https://www.motea.com/en/epower-electric-motorcycle-central-lift-incl-adapter-plate-and-wheels-949794-0
  6. Well done Beefy! Just ordered one.
  7. my non fault claim had no affect on my insurance . Same here.
  8. Yeh you can literally shave some off a pencil and coat the key in it. *Minus the wood shavings
  9. What is all this bollocks? Wear the f**king patch for f**k sake. Oooooh, They “don’t like it...” Wonderful. Anyone griefs you just call the Police. Simple.
  10. British Gas Homecare. Let them pay for it.
  11. I hate filtering behind guys with these on. Out of principle they wont effing move out of the way end end up with a queue of 15 odd bikes behind. I’m obviously more important than you lot so moooooove over!!!
  12. Check your expansion tank, on most modern combi boilers its behind the boiler but it can be a separate unit either next to or above the boiler, sometimes in the loft. If the expansion vessel bladder has ruptured or the air side has lost its charge, hot water cant expand into it and it will lift the PRV causing the system to lose water.

    jury duty

    Done it once. On the first day (this was a time before iPhones - 2006 i think as i had some right pony Nokia) got the hump waiting around all day to be picked. Next day went to the doctor and got a weeks sick note, rang the Jury service number and the court to let them know. Court said no problem just bring the sick note next week. Great! When i went back the next week got put on a ridiculous drug dealing case that we found not guilty and that was it. Went back to work who were none the wiser that i’d blown a sickie for a week as far as i could tell. My advice: go sick and have a free week off work.
  14. Works well at night with a Dark Smoke visor.
  15. Whats goes in spicy, comes out spicy. And watery.
  16. Merry Xmas all and a happy new year. Here’s to speedy dry winter and the on set of Spring, woooooooooh!
  17. Netflix normally give a free trial, as do Prime so could try both?
  18. Legendary. Well done mate.
  19. Fair play to the copper for staying calm. I’d have been swinging the baton as soon as the mong on left opened his mouth. Would have tasered his mate too for ‘resisting’. “I’m gonna enjoy this” Cock.
  20. Appreciate this may have been done to death but need some quick advice. Bought a new Helmet, a Bell Race Star. Feels quite tight on temples too the point that if i clench my jaw my temples hurt slightly. Too small? Or will it give over time?
  21. How can you not love this guy... ...Under your front wheel.
  22. Silk inner gloves seem to be doing the business. I’d rather lose my hand then pay £200 for heated gloves/battery/charger. RST track tech evo’s keep my feet warm just fine on their own. Don’t even need padded socks or anything. Standard thermal inners on textile kit work nicely, nothing required below on trousers. Jacket i find a t shirt and hoodie is enough.
