Well, I haven't lived a perfect life. Made plenty mistakes. Got my share of regrets. But there's on thing of which I'm proud. One stand on which I've never wavered. When someone calls my phone. It makes a goddamn ringing sound.

Response to: Is death by arrow from width alone? Posted February 2nd, 2009 in General

Velocity is a factor too. It's known that a jet of water can cut through steel if it's propelled fast enough.

Pressure equals force over area. So the bigger the contact area, the larger the pressure. Since the contact area is minuscule, the pressure will be relatively high with a certain force. So all you need is a way to produce a force great enough to produce a pressure too large for the skin to bear.

So in summary: if you find a way to propel a hair to speeds high enough to generate a force equal or larger than the force required to penetrate the skull, you could be able to shoot someone through the head with a hair.

Now the other thing we need to find out is how and what sort of damage is done. Now, I'm no expert. However, I do think that the the damage done will be roughly conical. I also think the minuscule vacuum at the end will suck some more brains out. So a fairly large amount of damage can be done, especially when you see what the 'arrow' is.

Another thing to keep in mind is where you shot the person. As said by Zerok, a shot in the brain stem is most likely fatal, whereas a hit in the frontal lobes can be survived.

Next to all of this, there are the secondary effects: blood gushing out of the wound into the open and into the brain, infections, (lack of )decent treatment... All of these factors can lead to a kill with an arrow of just a hair's width.

Response to: Dividing by zero... Posted February 1st, 2009 in General

When dividing by zero, you actually get infinity. Think of it this way: when the nominator increases, the solution decreases. When the nominator decreases, the solution increases. So when the nominator is infinitely small, the solution will be infinitely big. However, when you divide by zero, the solution will always be infinite. This does not combine with the elementary thought that maths is unambiguous and therefore, mathematicians have decided to make it impossible.

At 2/1/09 03:24 PM, Jin wrote: Dividing by 2 is to split the pizza into 2. Dividing by zero is to split the pizza into 0, and you can't split a pizza into zero pieces. Even if you divide the pizza by infinite, you get infinite pieces of pizza, but you just can't divide by zero. YOU JUST CAN'T.

So dividing a pizza by 0.5, will give you two pizzas. Now that is science.

Response to: Expanded Insults/Comments! Posted January 31st, 2009 in General

Gravitational mass is identical to inertial mass. That is, the amount of inertia something has and the amount of gravity it has are effectively the same. What's interesting is that there doesn't seem to be any reason this should be true. One could imagine an extremely large object with lots of resistance to force and no gravity (or vice versa), but this is never observed. You know what? I'm just gonna skip the rest of the build-up and say it: Yo mama's fat.

Whoops, discussing illegal activities is a bannable offence here on Newgrounds:
"Discussing illegal activities - including, but not limited to: ROMs, cracks, warez and hacking." - NGBBS rules

And I highly doubt nobody's going to notice that there's something going on on the parking lot of your school. Then there's the question of vandalism. When you gather a lot of people, they will do stupid things. Among those things will be vandalism. Another thing is that there might be security cameras in the vicinity. If so, prepare to be busted.
