So, am I reading this right? The answer doesn't have to be right, it just has to be closest to 9pm? Sounds good to me.

Edit for spelling.

All right, to increase the BS level here I am going to post a contest. The first one to post their answer closest to 9:00 pm (2100 hrs) after the hour today, Wednesday, 07 Mar 2007 will win a three pack of dog rockets!!

The question is: (drum roll please)!!

What is the exponent of the reduced Planck's constant in electron volts*second units??

One guess and only pass members can play. Also, I am the judge and my answer cannot be challenged. The contest ends at midnight today. Good luck and let the games begin!! :laugh:

EST?

On Woot it's Central!

Pardon my unclear command of the Queens English!! It has to be the correct answer that is posted closest to after 9pm. I hope that sound clearer!! It must be that Johnny Walker I was drinking.

ROTFLMAO!! :laugh: Talk about ambiguity!! Yes, the intent was EST. That would be 8pm Central, 7pm Mountain, 6pm Pacific, 2am the next day in Zulu land, etc. If you are posting from the moon than that would be Lunation 453.95867392.

I like that with that loony contest question the only clarification requested was on the time zone.

Well, besides newbs, we're also all electrical engineers.

Time zone EST. It is rather an interesting question!

-16

The reduce Planck's constant is also known as Dirac's constant I believe.






































OK, I had no idea what it was but googled it. Just wanted to sound smart.

 

[smellysell]

Whoops, hit the wrong button.

-16

Is this legal?

And the winner is smellysell!! Good going!! For a link to the answer you can find it at Reduced Planck's Constant :thumbs:

 

[tomthirtysix]

Nice job. :thumbs:

Sometimes it is called Dirac's constant but that usage has fallen. Planck discovered the number and Dirac just divided it by 2pi.
And the google works for me!!! That is where I got the data from. :thumbs:

-15

Hey tomthirtysix, you were just one number off!! You almost had it. :thumbs:

Yeah, the wikipedia page I was looking at had both... I forget exactly what the -15 was, but I saw that -16 was up, so I figured what the hell, may as well put it up there just in case.
