Help with this physics question? Four children playing in a field....?
You shouldn't have difficulty really. Just go over each one in turn. Start with D . Doesn't the person on the outside have to run pretty fast? so D is wrong. Now from that you consider B if the person on the outside has a high speed i.e runs fast then the closer you get to the middle the lower is the linear speed. So B is correct. Now you must consider A and C They can't both be right. Do they all complete one turn in the same time? If so then their ANGULAR velocity and their ANGULAR acceleration must be identical. C is right and A is wrong.
In your opinion, who are the greatest players who never played for a team that won a championship, in the NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL?
Going to throw you a curve ball on this one. Going to give you a player who was fantastic but never won a championship because there wasn't a professional league for this player at the time.Who is it?None other than Cheryl MillerWho's that? Indiana Pacers legend Reggie Miller’s sister.Cheryl was and still is regarded by some as the greatest women's basketball player of all time. She set and still holds numerous records in points scored, rebounds, free throws made and steals. She played for the USC Trojans and was named player of the year at least twice in her 4 year career and was a 4 time all American. When she graduated, she was drafted by a men's professional league, not the NBA mind you but kind of a sub league in which players could reach the NBA from.Cheryl was on a whole other level when it came to women's hoops. In high school and college she was consistently better than most men who played the game. In high school, she averaged a double double, unheard of in women's hoops at the time. She was a phenomenal basketball player and a true athlete.In fact, she continually beat her younger brother Reggie when they were growing up. Don't believe me? Check out ESPN’s 40 for 40 Reggie Miller vs the New York Knicks. One of the best episodes of that show, it spends a good portion of time focusing on the sibling rilvary had between Cheryl and Reggie. It's a fantastic segment.Sadly, Cheryl never won a professional championship because the professional women's version of her sport didn't come into existence until 1996, although she did win a gold medal playing for team USA and a silver I believe as well. She's spent some time in coaching, both college and WNBA and although her teams had good runs, still never won a championship.Actually, now that I think about it, neither her nor her brother Reggie won professional championships. Still, championships, when they played, did't define a player nearly as much as they do now. Both were incredible basketball players and sure maybe I'm a little biased being that I grew up in Indiana and was a Pacers fan. I grew up watching Reggie Miller in market square arena knock down 3’s and humiliate teams trying to play defense against him. But still, point is, Cheryl was an incredible player and probably would've won multiple championships had her sport had a professional league at the time she played.
Why are so many billionaires Jewish?
One historical reason is that, hundreds of years ago in Europe, the Church forbade usury--the charging of interest by money lenders--so people had to borrow money from Jews instead of Christians. We often find that ethnic groups in different parts of the world who are considered to be different, who are often discriminated against and persecuted, whose property has been confiscated, who have been through seriously hard times again and again, who value education and help each other out in good times, often work a little harder at saving and investing money. When other folks save for a rainy day, they make sure they have enough money to buy an umbrella if they need one. They like to have money, but they value other things more. So they go into debt to get their own apartment and a new car when they graduate from college, go out for a beer every now and again, instead of staying at home and investing the extra money they make. I used to work with someone who was not Jewish, by the way. She bragged that after she had attended college on financial aid--grants and scholarships--she had some money saved up because she did not spend it all. I had just finished college, and although I lived very modestly compared to some of my friends, I certainly had not saved any money from my financial aid. One day in the restroom, I saw a note taped to the sanitary napkin dispenser in which my co-worker said that she had lost a quarter in the machine, and could someone please return it to her. Now, if I'd lost a quarter there, I would not have taped a note to the machine with my name on it. I would have just thrown that quarter away, because some things are more important to me than money. And that's why I'm not a billionaire.
Who is Germany's best player going into the World Cup?
I grew up watching Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrand. These were a class of midfielders who would just maybe hardly play around a handful of touches and just roam around in the midfield, pulling back at times and then going up again without much productivity in their wildest days, still their presence in the field is what matters the most. If pulled out, the entire team collapses. Some teams are just like so, built around a central figure whose just presence in the field matters, who could dictate the play as they want and are equally and unquestionably respected by their fellow teammates as well as the manager.In recent day football, Toni Kroos is the best example I find, and you will be surprised to see that just after he swapped sides to Real from Bayern, the success meter also changed for both teams. One of the key players in Real’s Cl triumph is Kroos, mostly the unsung hero, just pull him out-I am cent percent sure Real would not retain the crown another year. So obviously Kroos is the best right now.
Is it true that Hollywood is run by Jewish people?
It's not run by them in a conspiratorial sort of way, but it would be ignorant to say that 1. it wasn't founded by Jewish people and predominantly ran by Jewish people for most of the 20th Century; and 2. That Jewish people aren't still the most influential group in Hollywood. Throughout the 2000's it seems most of the studio exec jobs have been held by Jewish people. Start Googling the ethnic heritage of actors, producers and directors to be amazed by how much success Jewish people have had in Hollywood. For instance, check out Nicolas Cage's family. Pretty cool stuff.Here's a good article from the L.A. Times: Who runs Hollywood? C'monThat being said, it makes sense that the culture of Hollywood has never been very sympathetic to the faith beliefs and moral values shared by a large section of the American population. Even if many of the Jewish people in Hollywood are not religiously observant Jews, you can't expect them to have much sympathy for a faith that is foreign to them and their heritage. Hollywood is certainly pro-America, but it tends to not be keen on the faith beliefs shared by the majority of the American population (Christianity).That shouldn't be shocking. It's sociology 101. I only bring it up because, as the article points out, there is a fear that if you point out that Jewish people have a lot of influence in Hollywood and that Hollywood is out of touch with many families' moral and religious values, that people may become anti-semitic. But I think the solution isn't hiding an obvious truth (that Jewish people happen to have enormous influence in Hollywood). It's being honest and having an open, understanding dialogue. Hiding it only amplifies conspiracy theorists' fears. And, as the article's author points out, it robs Jewish people of a pretty noteworthy accomplishment: the creation and stewarding of one of the most successful industries of our time.
