Step 1 - Multiply both sides by r squared

Step 2 - Multiple both sides by D cubed

Step 3 - Divide both sides by G

Step 4 - Divide both sides by m

Step 5 - Cube root both sides

Step 6 - r cubed cancels with the cube root to take r outside the brackets

I think ... I've been coding 15 hours straight now ...

"like" :D

I was excellent at art, really useful here - not!!! lol.

I've done the first 10 questions on the link Stephen put up, so far so good. Just over a week to go to better understand it. :-/

I've signed up. Hopefully the maths won't be too bad. I did used to be able to do differential equations many years back, though found it a chore, mainly because it was for engineering and not particularly relevant to what I was doing at the time. I've an interest here, so hopefully, that will spur me on! :)

"Re-arrange the following pile of cakes so that they are proportionally distributed to everyones appetite...."

That would make learning so much easier, and tastier :)

It would be good if we could discuss the course on here. I'm just conscious that:

- the small print suggests the course material should not be disclosed or discussed publically (i can't remember the wording), so is there a way to have an area of EMS which only registered EMS people can see?

- any course-specific discussions might be boring for the rest of the forum users

Any ideas / comments?

You can certainly have interactive chats about it in the chat room if you didn't want to leave a public record like in a thread. :)

In fact, are all the people who are signed up to the course dark site members?

James

Thinking the same, could we have a thread in the darksite members forum? Again assuming all those enrolled are members that is.

I looked through and from those who declared interest in the course only tibblitz wasn't a dark site member, but that could be sorted quite easily :)

sounds good as in the chat room the posts will disappear quickly if you dont happen to


be around.


 


I will just start up a thread and leave it open for anything if that OK with everyone we just need to check


if everyone on the course has dark site access


 


Please let me know

Sheila, could there be a while section temporarily for the course, then different threads could be related to different sections of the course?

For anyone who hasn't yet used the chat room or is unsure how it functions - you can use it to dive off into private chats with any number of invited people - it doesn't all have to be in the main chat room which is open to anyone - though you do have to access private chat through the main room. Could be useful even if threads are used as well. :)

cheers for that Kim, yes i was aware but others may not have been.  Could we have a sort of topic in the darksite area where different threads

can be posted under one heading for different parts of the course, if that makes sense :wacko:  then we have the best of both worlds.  Info

can stay on  the threads for everyone, but specific chats if needed can be CB

Hi Sheila - I saw this request coming and it's been raised with staff for consideration already. We're deciding how best to make provision for it on the forum for you. :)
