What does the formation of heavy elements tell us about the age of the solar system?
Q. What does the fact that heavier elements are formed from supernovas tell us about the age of our solar system? Part of my physics project - I need a few pointers as I'm a bit stuck! All I can think of is that it tells us our solar system is ancient because supernovas happen after billions of years of a sun being 'stable'. Is that on the right track? So if these elements are only produced from supernovas, then does that make them virtually non-renewable?

A. In the early days of the universe, all that existed was hydrogen, helium and traces of lithium. That's all. All other element were formed in the core of stars and was liberated when those stars went supernova. The heavier elements enriched the cosmic gas, which can then form solar systems and planets with a higher proportion of those. Therefore, given that our system has a fair amount of heavier elements (oxygen, nitrogen, silicon, iron, etc.) then it has to have formed from gas that had been around quite a bit (actually, estimations are that our sun is a 3rd generation star), therefore cannot be as old as the universe, since it had to wait for those 1st and 2nd generation stars to go supernova to provide the raw material. So, it is a (rela [cont.]

A. First of all, answers to questions of this nature are extremely complex to understand for the general population because one has to have a thorough understanding of the world and regional history. Further more, one must also have an understanding of their regional ethics because they all have their own set of values that sometimes don't quite fit into the thinking mold of popular culture. Finally, in my view, who is right and who is wrong can be decided quite easily by establishing the immigration trend of people from one country to another. So, if every country in the world said people were free to immigrate to any country of their choice, which country do you think will experience the largest wave of people trying to gain entry?

A. I don't know what state you live in, but almost all state have a Fair Housing Board that is governed by the state. You canusuallyy find them in thegovernmentt pages in the front of your phone book. Thirty day notice is the norm. Check out Legal Aid in your county or state also and a lot of states have a listing for renters rights too. If you call one and don't get the answer your looking for ask them who would know or who can help you. Google rental laws for where you live. Good luck. A lot of landlord will takeadvantagee if they can or maybe they don't know whats legal. There are usally firm laws reguarding damage. They cannot make you pay for normal wear and tear and they have to prove the other damages.

How do I go about purchasing a SIM card in the US for use in international European travel?
Q. I'm going to be traveling to Europe in a couple weeks, and I'm trying to get cell phone service while I'm there. I've got my hands on an unlocked GSM phone, but I'm curious how I go about purchasing a SIM card for use in international travel. I know that you can buy SIM cards for one country at a time, but can you buy a SIM card that will work in multiple countries? Are there any companies in the US that sell these SIM cards so that I could buy one before I travel? Thanks!

A. Actually, torskie is somewhat correct. you will need an unlocked quadband gsm phone. Quadband allows you to use it anywhere in the world. But wrong about that you only need the phone. You do need a prepaid SIM card. And it's only possible to buy a SIM card for multiple countries IF that service is availble in that country. I'm posting a link at the bottom that lists a SIM card that will work in multiple countries; I hope this helps you.

How can observations taken at the current time tell us about stellar evolution?
Q. Since individual stars can live for millions or billions of years, how can observations taken at the current time tell us about stellar evolution?
Asked by rascal - Fri Oct 27 20:01:06 2006 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Our understanding of stellar evolution comes from a combination of theory and observation. Theory tells us how stars produce energy through fusion, and how the fusion processes change as the star evolves. Comparing these predictions with observed behavior enables us to understand where a star is in its development. In broad terms the theory fits the observations well, but there are many theoretical details that have been refined by observation. In addition, observations of some of the short-lived processes that occur towards the end of a star's life are hard to come by.

A. I completely agree with you. The only reason people in America complain so much is because they see commercials for nice things all the time, and as soon as they see these, whatever they already have becomes inadequate in their eyes. This is the exact response the companies want from us, because that will make us buy their product. We should all just be grateful that we are fed and clothed, with warm houses and people to love that are still alive. Not everyone gets that.
