what is the difference between the down hill and super G ?
88802
Super-G stands for super giant slalom and is a cross between the downhill and the giant slalom events. It marries the wide, long turns of giant slalom to the steep slopes of downhill. For this reason it's often nicknamed the slow downhill or fast giant slalom. The top skiers almost glide through the long turns without losing any momentum. \n\n\nRules\nOne run, fastest down the mountain wins. Just like the giant slalom you get disqualified if you don't stay within the gates marking the course. \n\n\nHistory\nSuper-G is a modern concept in Alpine racing and only became part of the FIS World Cup circuit in 1985. The discipline became an Olympic event in 1988. \n\n\nRandom fact\nThe course is shorter than downhill but longer than a giant slalom course. At Olympic level any piste must have a minimum of 35 changes of direction for the men's race and at least 30 changes of direction for the women. \n\n\nThe lowdown \nIt's one of the most technical Alpine disciplines demanding precise, technical turns at very high speeds. \nSuper-G is often raced without any training runs. The competitors just get to inspect the piste on race day. \nMarcus Wasmeiner won the first men's overall super-G title in 1986. \nItaly's Daniela Ceccarelli is the current Olympic women's champion, while Norway's Kjetil Andre Aamodt holds the men's title.

They come from different sources .Going down like a lead balloon means crashing,going down well means satisfying,digestible,like good food.The other going down phrase means oral sex.

gravity is stronger, leave it down

Aloft.  Or, if you are looking for a word with "terrain" in it, you could use the prefixes "super-" or "supra-", both of which mean "above."\n\ni.e.  supraterranean or superterranean.

It would really be greatly helpful if you would post links so that we don't have to go looking for each one individually, but I can basically tell you that there is little difference between most of them, they all use the 7900GS, so any differences would be minimal.

the terrain is very natural.  They don't groom much of it.  The lifts are old and slow, there's a nasty hike to get to the ski area.  It's certainly not my favorite.  HOWEVER, that being said, Mtn. High and Bear are very groomed and very big...they are much easier.  Baldy offers beautiful scenery, but for someone with bad knees, the terrain is much too unpredictable.  Baldy is also not nearly as crowded.\nHonestly, you can't REALLY compare the three.

i know some of them use atomics, which are some of the best skiis you can get. the type depends on what kind of race it is, moguls take shorter skis for faster turning, races like the downhill and super g take longer skis for more speed

The simplest answer is balance.\n\nIt isn't energy - you expend the same whether you're pedalling or walking to achieve the difference in altitude.\n\nHowever, the cadence (rate at which you spin the pedals), and the gearing between your foot speed and the (rear) wheel speed  is a factor in the how fast the wheels move ... and therefore in how good a gyroscope you have. Faster feet (and faster wheel speed) means better balance.\n\nClimbing a hill, you trade off mechanical advantage for foot speed, at the expense of wheel speed. The amount of strength expended to keep the bike upright (by tweaking with your upper body) increases after a certain foot/wheel combination is achieved. Thus it becomes "harder" to do.\n\nThe other point of balance has been referred to earlier by another answerer; if the center of gravity (of the system, which includes both the rider and the bike) advances too far forward, there's a loss of balance. The same occurs if it moves too far rearward. At intermediate points, it requires more concentration and percieved effort to keep everything "rubber side down" ... thus it appears harder to accomplish some maneuvers on the bike.

Well you don't say what kind of information you are looking for, but the only difference between a ball rolling down the half pipe and a slippery object sliding down the same half pipe is that some of the energy goes into the rotation of the ball as it rolls down the slope so it will accelerate a little more slowly than the sliding object would. For example bobsled sliding down an icy track will get to the bottom a little faster than a bowling ball rolling down the same track when it is dry in the summer.

Maybe. I liked both, but they are different films. I guess it depends on what you didn't like about Godford Park. If it was the pacing and amount of characters than you will not like PHC. However, if you didn't like the "stuffy" British aspects of GP then maybe you will like the southern charm of the characters in PHC. I think that PHC was very funny but also a deeply personal film from one of my favorite filmmakers.

both are diff pls refer any Univ which will help u to know better

The UTG is a longer lasting rifle, as in it maintains it's FPS...forever, basically. But the Super 9 starts with an incredible FPS, but wears down over a year or two. Hope this helps.\n\nEDIT: Replacing internals can often cost more than a new rifle, however, so if you're going to airsoft for more than a year, go with UTG, if it's just a phase, go for Super 9.

Gravity states that if you drop 2 things at the same time, regardless of weight they would hit at the same time. Yet a larger mass rolling down a hill will gain more speed. Just watch the difference in speed from the skeleton & bobsled teams.

It is possible that the "down slope" is only an optical illusion and in reality the slope is upwards. This optical illusion can be brought about by the surrounding features of the environment. There are at least two places here in the Philippines that I know that have the same "down slope" illusion effect. In a place called "magnetic hill", a part of Mt. Makiling, cars seems to be dragged upwards, which people thought to be caused by a strong magnetic field. But a scientific study, presented in a national physics congress, proved that the slope is actually upwards and only the surrounding made the optical illusion.

First I'll assume this isn't a trick question, i.e., that the balls start with the same speed and have equal densities. They are rigid and roll on a rigid surface. What slows them down? Air resistance and going uphill. Not friction because they are rolling, not sliding. \nWith the same initial velocity, they have the same translational momentum per unit mass. However, another factor is the angular momentum due to rolling. Let ball 1 have a radius r=1 and a mass m=1, and ball 2 have r=2 and consequently m=8. If each ball has an initial velocity of 1, ball 1's angular rate w=1 rad/sec and ball 2's w=0.5 rad/sec. The moment of inertia I of a solid sphere = k*m*r^2 (k=0.4), or I=k for ball 1 and I=32*k for ball 2. The angular momentum = I*w, thus I=k for ball 1 and I=16*k for ball 2. While both balls have the same translational momentum per unit mass, ball 2 has twice the angular momentum per unit mass and therefore a greater total momentum per unit mass, which means a greater force * time per unit mass is needed to stop it. Going uphill provides the same force per unit mass on each ball, so ball 2 goes further uphill. Air resistance per unit mass is greater for ball 1 since air resistance depends on area, and ball 1's area/mass ratio is 1 vs. ball 2's ratio of 0.5. Again, ball 2 goes farther.\nEDIT: The balls have different momentum per unit mass but the same energy per unit mass, so my argument above about uphill travel is wrong; they go the same distance uphill. But air resistance still favors the larger ball. So answer 5 is the best answer so far. Another real-life factor would be: suppose the balls are on a rough surface or face an effective drag of a surface such as a rug. A larger ball wins on both. The larger radius means smaller vertical motions for a given scale of roughness (e.g., gravel size), so less energy wasted per unit mass. And you can visualize how a deep-pile rug would stop a rolling golf ball much faster than a bowling ball.

Jean-Claude Killy won gold medals in all 3 alpine events, downhill, slalom, giant slalom at Grenoble in 1968. Super G was not on the program until 1988.

Giant is a pretty good ride along with Trek & Specialized. Some of the Gary Fishers aren't too bad either. Set your budget for the bike. For the most part, all the manufactures will have something at that price point plus or minus. Look at all the specs (fork, shifters etc) on the bike to see what gives you the best bang for the buck. Consumer Reports had something recently on bicycles, you may check their best bike buys. Also hit the bike shops to ask questions, get catalogs & actually test ride the bikes.
