the most annoying kids in washington

reposting again, because I am JUST that cool...

terrain park physics? that'd be a pretty weak senior project rowen.

everything follows a parabolic trajectory, with an initial given angle. Foward horizontal velocity is a constant, while vertical velocity follows the equation V=Vo+At where Vo is the initial vertical velocity, and A is the acceleration (-9.8 meters/second squared in this case). Those two velocities, can easily be calculated from the angle of trajectory. The vertical initial velocity is equal to the total initial velocity, say Vt, multiplied by the cosine of the angle, and logically, the horizontal velocity is just Vt times the sine of that angle.

Distance travelled can be calculated, by finding how long it will take for the skier to go up then down using the integral of the above equation for the vertical velocity, the integral will of course give you the position. You solve that for zero, to get the time in the air. Multiply that by the intergral of the horizontal velocity, and you get distance travelled.

As far as tricks go, all rotation takes place around the skiers center of gravity, and that is the point that follows the parabolic path. For all considerations, you can assume that all of the skiers weight acts at that single point (somewhere in your belly). By twisted your body above your CG before taking of, but having your feet on the ground, you incure a moment about your center of gravity, and once in the air, you continue to rotate until you land, in which the opposite happens, and your feet incure in effect a negative moment opposing your rotation.

Bam, your senior project is done.

click this one too

its wierd how it screw up like that and makes the signature the link, meh! this is also from orbital mechanics.

I never knew this, Alpental opened in 1967, and that year Warren Miller's movie was called 'Alpental' and was all about the mountain!

(yes, in fact I AM bored at work, if you were wondering!)

The word Alpental is German for Alpine Valley, neat eh?

And originally, the chairs at alpental, before they were whatever they are now, and before they were chair 1, 2, 3, etc. They were simply eins, vei, drei (however you spell it in german). And the lodge was called 'Unterhaus'

AND, aparently, when Booth Creek bought everything back in 1998 (seems wierd eh? just like 5 years ago, it was still Ski Acres.... those were the days, eh?) on some paper work, Alpental was misspelled 'Alpenthal', and it was almost permanently renamed that, that would've been so lame. TECHNICALLY, when Booth Creek bought everything, they changed all the names... Hyak became Summit West, Ski Acres became Summit Central, Snoqualmie became Summit West, and Alpental became....this is so lame... Alpental at the Summit. Hahahaha. But aparently like nobody buys any merchandise with that on it, only stuff with just Alpental.

um, i was thinking more of jump construction in terms of physics, like the angle and velocity needed to clear a table, ect. Im going to miss that bridge.

all of what you need is explained above rowen.... like speed needed to clear a table? you know length of table i assume, just switch the equations around and solve for the initial velocity. its just kinematics.

Ok, you are the biggest physics nerd in WA state.

agreed. And physics sucks too.

If humans and dolphins are the only mammals on the earth that have sex for pleasure, do dolphins masturbate themselves like humans do?

The 10 Commandments can in fact be narrowed down to only two:

1) Thou shalt be honest and truthfull to the one who gives you nookie

2) Thou shalt not kill unless the invisible god you worship is different than the invisible god they worship

physics is easy, physics is fun. its linear algebra that can bite my left thumb. what?

seriously, physics is the best. beats chemistry, at least you can USE physics.

i think what sean is trying to say here is that he is a gay pimp, who likes to puke

you know me all too well.

I want cindy home. now. look what is happeneing to me!!!!!

While at work here today, I noticed a list of names on a piece of paper on Tracy's desk. The list struck me as very very odd, so I thought I would put it here. It is by far the most random and illogical list of names I have ever seen in my life. The list, as it appears on the piece of paper, is as follows:

Queen Elizabeth

The Cat in the Hat

Malcolm in the Middle

Hillary Duff

Michael Jordon

Mary Kate Olson

(Louis - crossed out) Ren Stevens

SquigWorth

President Bush

MRS. Claus

Bill Gates

Frosty the SNowman

Also, scribbled out on the side, is something like 'AK Nathan' or something.

I'm perplexed and intrigued.

they're all famous. maybe its in order of who she wants to have sex with.

whats funny is that cindy has been skiing longer than davis or chris has been alive. haha.

-------------------

be aware, ski with care
 
i also find the fact that cindy and davis have a big thing in common. they both like cock. (no insult to cindy dont know who u are. just hope u dont like davis)

 
hahahahaha, very good. i officially like you now.

cindy is my girlfriend/fiance.

SquigWorth?

did she mean 'squidward' ? as in the squid guy on spongebob? and ren stevens is louis stevens sister! DUH! on even stevens, its a show on the disney channel! DUH! like totally!!

Where's the fire?

Powderdayz= 'He seemed cool but he freaked!'

 
so I come in to work for Kevin's sorry ass today, and when I walk in, theres some people downstairs, and Kevin, sitting in the office, goes 'Hey, the airplane guy is here!'

and these kids downstairs are like 'The airplane guy?! MOM! MOM!!! The airplane guy is here!!!!' aparently I am cooler than the ice cream man now, I like that. I like that a lot.

So they come up, and this kid is like 6 yrs old, and all awe-struck at my presence. I don't remember his name.... what an ass I am. So I introduced myself, and shook his hand. And then invited him in to the office to show him how to make a plane. I couldn't think of a simple one, so I just showed him how to make the one I always make, its pretty complicated. His sister came in too, she was a little older (like 8 maybe?) and made one.

So they made their planes, and although they only flew kinda well, man they had so much fun with them!

Typically I hate most children. I don't plan on having kids ever, neither does Cindy. There's too many people in the world as it is, and kids are very very annoying.

But this kid was just soooo cute.

I asked him why he liked airplanes so much, and with huge eyes he said 'They are SOOOO cool!!!!'

Hehe, I thought that was really neat! I told him to come visit anytime!

Dont worry, its a controlled slide.
 
hahah d lite said ' chris sad cindy is fat ugly slut hoE bich' yah yah what, i lob you d lizzle

always leave the bitches hanging, the lure of the donkey dizzle is enought to wrangle them back

cause its like a year old and irrelevant?

that, and i've moved on to german ladies.

oh god. rowen. go home. all you do is bring back threads from the 80s. let them rest in peace!!!

that makes your velocities shiza high
