"theorized", eh? no woman on the planet has any experience at all with moron,
so moron claims it is only "theory"?

So it seems.



Then Pat is living a sheltered life..... for it has been theorized in many
ports the vessel Overproof has frequented... that the Captain must be a
great lover!

| | | | You sail directly East for 14 hours,
| | | | then South for 14 hours,
| | | | and then West for 14 hours,
| | | | and then North again for 14 hours.
| | | |
| | | | Now if you draw a vector between your starting
| | | | position and your final position. What would you
| | | | call that vector?

Heh Einstein....

Vector - a quantity, force or velocity made up of components of both
direction and magnitude

Just in case you were confused..... again! ;-)

CM



"JAXAshby" wrote in message
...
| Of course the vector could be 0 degrees T. ;-)
|
| no such vector exists. *that* is a direction, moron.

yeah, it is an appropriate classroom exercise for 10th or 11th graders.

high school

ok I give up then. What would the resultant look like if starting and ending
points are both point A?
or, do you suppose Bart is tricking us with some other movement, such as
that caused by the rotation of the planet, etc.?

scout, it is not a cake or a rocket ship or a waltz either.

yes I know, that information was lacking was the very first thing I said.

Scout

no it wasn't the point. the point was the question lacked sufficient

data
to
form an answer.

btw, a point is not a vector either.

a dot is not a vector.

He's phasing in & out of reality.... it's the idiot savant thing. He's
hoping that you might construe his babbling as a form of higher
intelligence.

Jaxxies couldn't "talk down" to even a cockroach...... on any subject.

moron, "quantity" is a scalar and "force" is a scalar, while "velocity" is a
vector.

you have had to much to drink today, moron, and the sun has not yet set. go
sleep it off.

Bwahahahahahahahaaaaa....... you mean you really don't know!!!????

I'll give you a hint my little mensa candidate... it's as constant as it is
obvious.

Now grab your pencil and paper and run along.

Sheesh!

Sorry I should have known that your idea of a vector would include metaphor.

sorry, nav, a figure of speech. I forgot you don't have the capacity to

A cat is not a vector.

speed is a scalar, velocity is a vector. rather different breeds of cats.

so, moron, wanna tell us what the magnitude of 0 degrees T is?

you have had too much to drink today, moron, and the sun has not yet gone over
the horizon. go sleep it off.
