cruising for burgers Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 we breath through only one of our nostrils at a time, and the nostril we breath through changes during the course of the day. We breath through the right nostril when using the left-side of the brain and vice-versa. you're trolling right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruising for burgers Posted May 21, 2012 Share Posted May 21, 2012 "Investigators have demonstrated that, in a normally functioning nose, while one nasal fossa is congested, its ciliary beating slows in frequency or even ceases, in order for moisture to accumulate in preparation for resuming the nasal functions when that side decongests as the other side congests. Physiologically speaking, a human has two noses (making necessary two nostrils) that work in concert to provide constant humidification, filtering, and warming. The turbinates also slow the flow of air through the nose by causing turbulence, allowing more time for these functions to take place." oh ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruising for burgers Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 In this ordinary universe, there is freedom of motion for masses and energies in space. Motion (momentum) is through three axes of space. Flow through time, however is restricted to a single linear dimension with three locations (position) ; past, present, and future. There is freedom in motion through space, and no freedom in motion through time, objectively. Space is on the outside, and each entity moves through space. Time is on the inside, and time moves through each entity.In a black hole, matters are reversed. Inside a black hole, time and space mathematically switch places. Instead of an entity being locked in a linear motion through time, in a black hole, travel through time is possible. Past, present, and future are all available axes of motion. Motion through space, however, is restricted to a linear one dimension as the point of the singularity moves through the three axes of ordinary space. All times are available to be at along that line of travel. All points on a line are potential nodes. Citation has that something to do with the idea of time travel being possible but only as an observer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goiter Sanchez Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 The Pistol shrimp (measuring 1-2 inches in length) dispatches it's prey by sneaking up on them and using the hinge mechanism of it's proportionately huge claws to fire a 'cavitation bubble'. This bubble moves at 60 miles per hour and releases a sound reaching 218 decibels (among the loudest sounds produced by an animal). As the bubble collapses it produces a sonoluminescent flash and reaches temperatures nearly as hot as the surface of the sun (5,000 °C). All of this lasts approximately 1 millisecond. Needless to say the shock of this attack is enough to kill prey larger than itself if need be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmanyo Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Not a fact, but: What if there were a disease that got worse the more you thought about it? that's called depression ha, nice one Ok how about this one: mathematics is never actually physically present in the fabric of space, it only manifests itself onto physical objects This one is questionable. What if math is the very foundation of our universe? That the smallest "particles" are essentially just values operating on mathematical principles? As far as I've seen quantum physics seems to show that that is very possible. Also very related, a Josephson Junction works to reduce electricity in a system by reflecting electrons against walls, and some of the electrons will appear on the outside of the wall. Without ever interacting with it, or damaging the wall. They don't go "through" the wall, they just appear on the other side, because apparently the electron existed as a wave and didn't have to exist as a particle until it made it outside. edit: also this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_physics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
