Um, are you just making up the variables in those equations? In Physics A=Acceleration and F=Force, and a weird looking greek U=Coefficient of Friction.

ok i guess this forums hijacked but hey who the hell cares we got a MONTY PYTHON FEST going on here :headbang:

ps my BP's name is MONTY after that group

"so how do u know shes a witch?"(my favorite scene)

"she turned me into a newt!!!!!!!!!.....i got better"

way too many people name pythons "Monty"......

True, but has there ever been a funnier comedy troupe? I think not!

"Bring us ... a shrubbery!"

"Help! Help! I'm being oppressed!"

"Always look on the bright side of life (doo doo da doo da doo da doo)"

"Does she go, eh? Does she go?"

"That ... is an ex-parrot!"

"On Wednesdays I go shoppin' and have buttered scones for tea."

"Your mother is a hamster and your father smells of elderberries!"

This Monty Python review has been brought to you by the letter P and my first cup of coffee.

to continue from where marla left off....

"I'm a lumber jack and I'm OK..."

"Would you like to go upstairs?"

"Hello, I'de like to have an argument.."

"NNNOOOO one excpects an inquzition!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Bring out the comfy chair!!!!!"

"I...like....Chineeeeeeese"

Now see - clearly you are too intelligent to need any of us to spoonfeed you a weather forecast.



NI!

yeah... i know.....

"where.... is... the fissshhhhhh???"
"this parrot has ceased.... to exist!"

i'm a fan as well.. but waaayyyy tooo many people name their bp's Monty.... Monty & Jake. If you're gonna use a Monty Python refference go with something like............. Tim :D

"Lets not arrgue and bicker about who killed who, this is suppose to be a HAPPY occasion!"

"how long has it been?"
"thats a rather personal question!"
"shut up shut up u ruined it...start over"
"how long has it been?"
"3 days sir"
"have we started again?"
"shut up ohhhh start again"
"HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN?"

Here is the answer

Assuming the bird is a European swallow, it will probably flap its wings about 15 times per second and travel at a rate of 0.22 meters per beat. One method to determine the air speed velocity is to plug these values into the following equation:

U=3fA,

where f is the number of times the swallow flaps its wings per second and A is how far it travels per flap. Insert our values for f and A into the equation, and you have:

U=3*15*0.22=9.9m/sec

Hence, the air speed velocity of an unladen European swallow is about 9.9 meters per second.


Haha, I get to cross the bridge right?

LOL!

The first thing I thought, when I read the post title "I need help" was, "so do I..."
