Where is the potential energy saved? If you increase the h (=height), potential energy will be increased given by U=mgh.  Where does the energy go, into atoms?
What is potential energy truly? I have a problematic question for which I have been unable to attain a satisfactory answer. What is  truly?   -  I have read about how potential energy can be seen as the "highering" of an object within a field, be it gravitational, electromagnetic, etc.   In a way, an object is lifted to a higher position, and when it eventually falls down again energy is released back.  The object does not even have to be "lifted" beforehand, as with the case of asteroids.   However, since energy cannot be destroyed, it must somehow be stored, yet how does energy truly store itself within a field? It seems hard for me to grasp that energy can physically be stored within the positioning of an object?  I can't really get my head around how a field conserves energy within it. Kinetic energy on the other hand, can be, for me, intuitively understood, as the object really is "moving" and energy manifests itself through motion.  Can anyone elaborate on this, perhaps give reasoning as to why a field can in fact "store" energy? Please point out any fallacious or naive views I seem to hold.
A teacher wants to randomly form two teams of 5 students from a group of 5 girls and 5 boys for a sports activity. A teacher wants to randomly form two teams of 5 students from a group   of 5 girls and 5 boys for a sports activity. Two of the girls, Ann and   Alice, are selected as team leaders. Find the probability that one   team has exactly 3 girls.   If i do this way $$\dfrac{{3 \choose 2}{5\choose 2}{1\choose 1}{3\choose 3} \times 2!}{{8 \choose 4}{4 \choose 4}} = \dfrac{6}{7}$$  Which turns out to tally with the answer. But i got one big question, is my way correct. Do i really need to times $2$ here? Please see my link below to my previous question cause the previous question make me doubt if i should times $2$. Implications of parity violation for molecular biology In biology, the concept of parity emerges in the context of chiral molecules, where two molecules exist with the same structure but opposite parity. Interestingly, one enantiomer often strongly predominates over the other in natural biological systems (e.g. D-glucose is ubiquitous, L-glucose is rare in nature).  In physics, it has been established that weak interactions violate parity, which (if I understand correctly) implies a physical difference between left- and right-handed systems.  This suggests to me the following questions: Does parity violation in physics affect the physical or chemical properties of chiral molecules? And does this have any implications for our understanding of biological homochirality? I love the game Terraria for PC and played it for ages. Now I saw Terraria on the PS3-Store and gave it a shot. After some wandering around I saw something like a snow-biome and realised later on, that I was on a floating Island. I haven't played much of Terraria the last months, but this stuff seems kind of new. In addition I haven't found the (current) differences between the PC and the Consoleversion. Is there just one (upcoming?) Patch missing on the PC? What's included or - like the title said - what are the current differences (besides the splitscreen-feature of course)? I've used a number of different *nix-based systems of the years, and it seems like every flavor of Bash I use has a different algorithm for deciding which startup scripts to run.  For the purposes of tasks like setting up environment variables and aliases and printing startup messages (e.g. MOTDs), which startup script is the appropriate place to do these?  What's the difference between putting things in .bashrc, .bash_profile, and .environment?  I've also seen other files such as .login, .bash_login, and .profile; are these ever relevant?  What are the differences in which ones get run when logging in physically, logging in remotely via ssh, and opening a new terminal window?  Are there any significant differences across platforms (including Mac OS X (and its Terminal.app) and Cygwin Bash)? Script to convert filenames to lowercase depending on extension $E$ is a measurable set of finite measure and $1 \le p_{1} &lt; p_{2} &lt; \infty$. Consider the linear space $L^{p_{2}}(E)$ normed by $||.||_{p_{1}}$. Is this space Banach? How do I set up a shipping condition that accesses the value of a specific field in product? I have a term reference field in product called "Weight" with values "Light", "Medium" &amp; "heavy". I am using flat rate shipping service and trying to check the value of "Weight" field in Calculation rules.I know that I need to expose it by using "entity has field" but I end up having  commerce-line-item:order:commerce-line-items:0 commerce-line-item:order:commerce-line-items:1 commerce-line-item:order:commerce-line-items:2 commerce-line-item:order:commerce-line-items:3 commerce-line-item:order:commerce-line-items:0... commerce-line-item:order:commerce-line-items:1... commerce-line-item:order:commerce-line-items:2... commerce-line-item:order:commerce-line-items:3...    I was able to get to the weight field by using any of them and then did a Data Comparison  commerce-line-item:order:commerce-line-items:0:commerce-product:field-product-weight   this condition worked ok first time but not after that. can anyone please help me on this or if you think of another solution please let me know.

If we look at light as a collection of little particles, we can say that dimmer light has its photons more spread out.  But if we look at light as a wave, then there no gaps unless specifically placed there on purpose.  So how can one interpret the formation of gaps between the photons? How do I cd into a directory in the home folder? Add 'Page' above page numbers in Table of Contents Stop Edit/Rollback Wars: Limit Number Of Edits/Rollbacks Per User Per Post Per Day I came up with an idea for how to begin putting an end to the edit/rollback wars and then the ensuing comments battle...   What if you are only allowed to edit a post (not the author) once a day. What if you are also only allowed to rollback one edit to your post a day. There would not be a overall limit on the users ability to edit other posts other than the one edit per post per day. There would also not be a limit on the number of times a single post could be edited or rolledback (multiple users), but each edit/rollback would trigger the 24 hour wait... There is currently some threshold in place that allows a post to be edited after it is posted without calling it an edit.  This same threshold could apply to the edit in case a mistake is made (fat fingered, mis-tagged, etc.) which would allow the editor a window of time to correct a mistake before getting locked out.     If either the editor or rollerbacker feel that the current state of the post is not acceptable and they are out of mods for the day, then a moderator can get flagged through the current process. What is the pressure at the center of the Earth? (Or a neutron star) The  has microgravity and is thought to be solid and almost 6000 degrees hot. What is the pressure like there? The confusing thing, for the common man I suppose, is that there's no gravity there, but lots of matter around it which does gravitate towards the center. How does that add up? Is the center just a gas cloud or is it highly compressed?  And I could add the aside question about what it is like in the microgravity center of a  or a black hole, but I don't expect anyone to know about that. SharePoint online REST: Get users profile properties I'm looking for some help with a REST call I'm attempting to make in SharePoint Online.  I'm doing an add-in that gives me the name, birhday and photo property of all user in user profiles    I tried with this code   var siteUrl = _spPageContextInfo.siteAbsoluteUrl;     Console.log(siteUrl);     $.ajax({         url: siteUrl + "/_api/SP.UserProfiles.PeopleManager/GetMyProperties",         method: "GET",         headers: { "Accept": "application/json; odata=verbose" },         success: function (data) {             console.log(data);         },         error: function(error) {             console.log(error);         }     });   but I only get current user profile properties, what I need is all user profiles properties for all users, how can i achieve that?  Thanks in advance! How Triangle Law and Parallelogram law of addition of Vectors are different?Ain't they.  Please don't tell me the things written in book......give me the appropriate reason.And how do i distinguish between the two while adding vectors,what am i trying to say is i get really confused where to use parallelogram law and where triangle law  P.s:my basics are really weak though!May be the question might not be right After discussion with colleagues regarding the use of the 'var' keyword in C# 3 I wondered what people's opinions were on the appropriate uses of type inference via var?  For example I rather lazily used var in questionable circumstances, e.g.:-  foreach(var item in someList) { // ... } // Type of 'item' not clear. var something = someObject.SomeProperty; // Type of 'something' not clear. var something = someMethod(); // Type of 'something' not clear.   More legitimate uses of var are as follows:-  var l = new List&lt;string&gt;(); // Obvious what l will be. var s = new SomeClass(); // Obvious what s will be.   Interestingly LINQ seems to be a bit of a grey area, e.g.:-  var results = from r in dataContext.SomeTable               select r; // Not *entirely clear* what results will be here.   It's clear what results will be in that it will be a type which implements IEnumerable, however it isn't entirely obvious in the same way a var declaring a new object is.  It's even worse when it comes to LINQ to objects, e.g.:-  var results = from item in someList               where item != 3               select item;   This is no better than the equivilent foreach(var item in someList) { // ... } equivilent.  There is a real concern about type safety here - for example if we were to place the results of that query into an overloaded method that accepted IEnumerable&lt;int&gt; and IEnumerable&lt;double&gt; the caller might inadvertently pass in the wrong type.  var does maintain strong typing but the question is really whether it's dangerous for the type to not be immediately apparent on definition, something which is magnified when overloads mean compiler errors might not be issued when you unintentionally pass the wrong type to a method. When should I use "a" versus "an" in front of a word beginning with the letter h? Cannot favorite once up voted I'm not sure whether this is exactly the same bug as  or whether this is a new bug.  If you up vote a question and then attempt to add it to favorites too you get Question is already favorited:    This also happens if you up vote on the web site and then try to favorite it from Android. If you don't up vote or if you favorite it first and then up vote it appears to work fine.
