Did you learn nothing at school? The beams from Light Emitting Diodes are lighter than the old heavy beams. They don't droop as far. You study at Old School??

smokie36 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 This thread needs a replacement for the word 'global'. Any suggestions? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gandalf12 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 If you take a small area and base your assumption of the world on that then yes it is flat but if you take the entire globe as a single entity of course it isnt. Calculus relies on small sections being able to be considered as flat for the calculations. The earth is round. A sphere is an obvious shape as the pressure both internal and external is balanced with a sphere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pie-eaters got a bit of stuffing in the Challenge Cup: 23-0 at Warrington. When I read that this morning I was tempted to put on my gloves and clap my little paws in triumphant joy, but instead I went out cycling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
