I'm desperate. I'm willing to pay large sums of money for help with this. (Dramatization...but I'm ALMOST that desperate)

Does anyone here know how to find orbital periods?? They give me the formula (R cubed/Tē=K of the sun) and I have the R (7.18 x 10 to the 7th) WHAT THE HELL IS K??? *sigh* I do not know how to do this. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Instead of sitting here daydreaming and posting you should've paid more attention to the lesson when it was been taught:D

Unless I'm greatly mistaken, I doubt Kayla was sitting in Physics class with her laptop just posting away while the teacher was teaching the lesson. I don't think she's that stupid.

Maybe she just doesn't get it? Physics is a hard class.

tru dat, the only stuff I understood in physics was kentic and potential energy, but if you ask me a question now I couldnt answer...I barely got a B in an honors class, opps

If you think about it it's also useless. When you go for a job they don't ask you any of the stuff you burned your brain with. Unless you are going to work for NASA...and even there I don't think so

Just help her ALREADY! She only asked about ONE problem. It's not like she asked you to do her homework. :rolleyes:

I wish I could be of help, but I never took physics in HS :(

:lol:

I graduated from HS last spring. Science & math were my worst subjects. :o

:lol: I'm not even in Physics yet. I don't take that until senior yr, if I decide to take it at all :o

sorry Kayla, I'm in Algebra-Based Physics, and that's a killer...looks like physics is the worst class known to man...

Wish I could help :(

Thanks everyone. Karly, you aren't mistaken...I have 6 and a half pages of notes from this chapter alone. I wasn't spacing off...physics is hard. I'm also in trig, which everyone says is harder. So, why did it take me 10 minutes to do trig, and 4 and a half hours to do physics? :rolleyes:

There has been no "daydreaming" for quite awhile, thanks. I was asking for help, not criticism, I'maDESIlover. Thanks, anyway though, for making me seem like a slacker when I work hard for that 4.0.

By the way...I finally got the answer. I can't remember it now, but at about 12 last night, I had this breakthrough haha. Got an 84% on the test today, too, so I can't being doing ALL that bad.

Thanks for the support!

We all need some kind of SIMON support sometimes :cool:

She already told you she was paying attention, Jesus, you don't have to jump to conclusions about things...

I don't know what it is like to be in a long-term relationship because the right guy hasn't come along and plus I love and cherish my freedom, independence, & privacy but hope to have a husband and kids in the future. My biological clock is "ticking" and I will be the BIG 3-0 October 3rd!!

Don't be in a hurry; just because your clock' s ticking doesnt mean you have to jump in the first train that comes around your station:D
