Damn Work and School
I guess my journal's going to stay very boring, because my life is pretty boring. Work and school - school and work. I went to school today from 9 to 10am, and paid a speeding ticket from 10:15 to 11am (my sixth speeding ticket in my commuter car - I am yet to get one on my baby (my Trans Am)).So I paid my ticket, went to work, and worked from 11:15am to 8:45pm. Now I get to do my physics homework - I'm two chapters behind on the standard homework, and my weekly lab write-up is due tomorrow morning. This is the part of this entry I'm sure no one wants to read: I'm stuck on this one stupid issue... I found that there is a linear relationship between the hanging mass and the angular acceleration of a frictionless pulley system pulling on a small torque wheel fixed to steel disks... so anyway, yeah - the equation that relates them is:I need to explain why the relationship between m and alpha (angular acceleration) is linear... So everything in the equation is a constant except for the acceleration, which increases as the mass (small m) increases... It doesn't look like a linear equation, but it has a linear relationship, because everything else is constants. One of my employees (a mechanical engineering major) and I tried to freaking algebraically convert this thing to slope-intercept form all day, and we kept getting this wack-ass intercept (but an accurate slope)... That's due tomorrow, so I hope I figure it out by then.Oh yeah and besides work and school, my boyfriend puts me to work as his webmaster for www.lightsabercrew.com. I get to maintain an ungodly amount of user art pages and what not, as well as help him mod the forums there. Tonight one user sent me 23 megs of images that he wants added to his user art page, so I get to do that, in addition to all my homework... Good thing I'm wasting time making this worthless entry first.Damn my life is exciting... Wish you were me?
