Nope. Try removing me as an RO (so I don't get explicit write access) as I have 1 to.
Jul 8, 2017 17:59
Dennis the minace mod told me that it would get deleted. I don't know why it isn't done still now.
Jul 8, 2017 17:58
But it should...
Jul 8, 2017 17:57
Hi @EriktheOutgolfer any idea why ?
Jul 8, 2017 17:56
It automatically gets removed.
Jul 8, 2017 17:55
Super super weird - I can't add RO too.
Jul 8, 2017 17:54
I should contact a mod, not very sure to bother them or not.
Jul 8, 2017 17:53
@EriktheOutgolfer @SimplyBeautifulArt This is the weirdest thing : I have no main account yet I have a chat account !

Random destructions with game, and terminals or something like that
Jul 8, 2017 09:53
Why it's called "eleven" ?
Jul 8, 2017 09:50
What does that mean ?
Jul 8, 2017 09:49
(Also, what does the "eleven" means, in your chat description eh ?)
Jul 8, 2017 09:49
(Also erm are you a kid ? Your profile picture is ... erm... suspicious hehe )
Jul 8, 2017 09:47
@Dennis so my chat account would be deleted too, I hope ?
Jul 8, 2017 09:40
@Dennis Are you here now ? If you read this later, I just wanna say that for focusing on some exams, I have scheduled to delete all my SE account - will the chat account be deleted too ? (I want that)

@JohnRennie OK, I will conduct an experiment today afternoon and ping you later.
Jul 7, 2017 08:53
@Justwinbaby I removed because I thought orientation was wrong.
Jul 7, 2017 08:53
Blocks and cars and ships and helicopters and toy wagons all are same - a spherical cow.
Jul 7, 2017 08:49
Yeah, I could roughly undestand both - but what happens in real life - where if you pull a car hard enough with a rope, it moves, but you don't move.
Jul 7, 2017 08:47
:38624484 Yeah, heard it (like everyone) since childhood, and never understood it properly. That's why I'm asking here.
Jul 7, 2017 08:46
No, the box is a movable block, take a four wheeler car for example.
Jul 7, 2017 08:45
I think in (b), same thing happens, but the friction is acting equally and oposite to your movement, so you don't move, right ?
Jul 7, 2017 08:42
Both cases. In (a) frictionless floor, I guess you will be pulled at the block too, like two trains crashing at each other (Is this correct ?) in (b), the confusion the appearing.
Jul 7, 2017 08:40
@JohnRennie Nah, you are standing and pulling a block with a rope. On the other side of the rope, there's a block.
Jul 7, 2017 08:38
Yeah, I was trying to tell that, not the contradiction of it. (Actually, by second question, I was referring to this)
Jul 7, 2017 08:36
Yeah, that's what I was trying to prove with thought experiment.
Jul 7, 2017 08:35
Yeah, both fixed to the floor. Red box to give support to the spring.

I am in 11th grade, one year before graduating from highschool, whatever that you call in your country.
Jul 7, 2017 08:33
Jul 7, 2017 08:29
Oh yeah now I realize it's full of nonsense. What about my ohte question ?
Jul 7, 2017 08:29
@Kenshin Why ?
Jul 7, 2017 08:28
A block is there. And you are turning the handle. What's the opposing force here ?
Jul 7, 2017 08:28
Jul 7, 2017 08:28
Also, suppose in one end of the rope in this:
Jul 7, 2017 08:27
oh, and it this thought experiment correct ?:
Jul 7, 2017 08:25
@JohnRennie In both cases, (movable and constant), the block pushes at you with equal force, so why the block goes at one case, and remains constant in another ?
Jul 7, 2017 08:11
Let me think a bit on what you told earlier first.
Jul 7, 2017 08:10
Oh sorry @JohnRennie internet connection was lost for half an hour. Are you here now ?
Jul 7, 2017 07:40
No (But I heard it's mass x velocity). And applying analogous reasoning for case (a), this means when I push a house wall standing on an ice floor, I just get pushed back from the wall ?
Jul 7, 2017 07:38
Nope, but I heard of it.
Jul 7, 2017 07:37
Oh. So if I sit on a ice floor, and on the floor is a carom board, if strike the striker, I also get pushed back, albeit with very low velocity ?
Jul 7, 2017 07:35
I couldn't understand the "you also move away from the block" portion, as when I push the carom striker with my finger, my hand doesn't gets pushed back.
Jul 7, 2017 07:30
When I hit the block, in case (a), I could understand that the block pushes back at me at exactly the same force I pushed it (except for ridiculously high forces which breaks it and then reduces it to case (b) ), but for (b), I don't understand how the third law applies.
Jul 7, 2017 07:30
Imagine a cubical block lying in a frictionless place, and (a) When the block is cemented to the floor (b) When the block is just placed above the floor (i.e what happens normally).
Jul 7, 2017 07:29
Okay.
Jul 7, 2017 07:27
@JohnRennie can I ask here a (simple) mechanics question ike I did two days before ?
Jul 7, 2017 05:51
Anybody here so I can ask one of my confusion regarding basic Newton Ian physics ?

Okay, it is either $\sqrt{e}$ or $\frac{\pi^2}{6}$; but for very large I can see it oscillating (but you can show by trivial arguement that it never exceeds $2$ ), I think it's for C's handling of int.
