  1. Quote This is exactly what I'm looking to do.
  2. Quote exit on belly. Not really going to need to factor that in though. I'm just going to take an average drag coefficient. I'm not the rope totin charlie Bronson wanna be that's getting us fucking lost.
  3. Yeah I would like to use both.. If you got it that'd be great I can check it with what I have so far. Gonna try and plot it now and see what I get. I'm not the rope totin charlie Bronson wanna be that's getting us fucking lost.
  4. ok so I'm thinking this is a better way to do it. Any input on how I can graph this using state variables in matlab. I'm not the rope totin charlie Bronson wanna be that's getting us fucking lost.
  5. Quote oops I was changing my units around and missed that. I'm not the rope totin charlie Bronson wanna be that's getting us fucking lost.
  6. I'm going to ignore that since the value I'm looking for is only during the first 0-3 seconds or so. I'm not the rope totin charlie Bronson wanna be that's getting us fucking lost.
  7. Hey all, I'm doing a project for Dynamic systems of modeling. I'm trying to plot the distance a jumper will be away from the plane after exit at a given time using matlab or similar program. Assumptions: Plane Velocity 100 mph Altitude 13.5 K gravity 32.2 (m/s^2) I've come up with a few equations. Y(t) = -.5 *g * t^2 +Vo*t + Yo Y(t)=altitude wrt to time g-gravity t-time Vo initial velocity Yo-initial altitude But this is just assuming the objects initial velocity is 0 which isn't true.. So delving a little deeper. using drag coefficient m * dv/dt = .5 * rho *Cd * A * V^2 -m*g rho- density of air at 13.5k Cd- drag coefficient A - surface area V- Velocity m-mass g-gravity. but my goal is not to find terminal velocity or velocity wrt to time. I want to find distance away from plane after x seconds. If you got any ideas I'd appreciate it. I'm trying to get this project done so I can study for finals on Mon.
  8. Thanks for all the votes and input. For some reason when I watch a thread it doesn't always tell me when I got posts.. And JD does that mean it's my suit now. I'm not the rope totin charlie Bronson wanna be that's getting us fucking lost.
  9. Fell free to expand. If you got custom design, stock, etc.. I'm not the rope totin charlie Bronson wanna be that's getting us fucking lost.
  10. whorah.. Dallas is a Great DZ.. not to the point of the Yanks DZ of SDC but it'll do for the south. I'm not the rope totin charlie Bronson wanna be that's getting us fucking lost.
  11. Sure if it was homework, but it's an example I was trying to figure out. Which I finally did. I'm not the rope totin charlie Bronson wanna be that's getting us fucking lost.
  12. you jump out of airplanes...you are not fucked.
  13. How'd I fucking know you would be the response. Hey desperate times call for desp.. Oh wait I'm doing Thermo on a Fri night Life will come after my degree. or at least the boogie. I partied enough for 2 lifetimes that's why I'm fucked now. I'm not the rope totin charlie Bronson wanna be that's getting us fucking lost.
  14. If anybody is savvy in Thermodynamics can you hit me up. A steam power plant operates on the cycle shown in Fig. 10-5 If the isentopic efficency of the tubine is 87 percent and the isentropic efficiency of the pump is 85% determine A/ the thermal efficiency of the cycle and b) the net power output of the plant for a mass flow rate of 15 kg/s. w,turb,out=n(thermal efficenty) * w,s,turb,out = nT(h5-h6s) = .87(3583.1-2115.3) edit to add: I could scan the example if it would help. just don't know where to find the h6s- being the true enthalpy value.

  15. cool deal.... jackass! Im not jackass! Txflier is jackass! BTW ask him how good he is at risk Mr. Jackass. And what is your win ratio in our 1 on 1's I'm not the rope totin charlie Bronson wanna be that's getting us fucking lost.
  16. And if they don't know you by Sunday, they'll be able to spot you by the ass-shaped skin prints on the windshield of your car. The Kilted C*cksmen have retribution for those who insist on using the "s"-word. Look I have no problem with you girly men wearing SKIRTS, thats your thing......, but you shouldn't rub your asses on the ride that my friend is bringing me in..........now the friend that is taking me home will have a great laugh with me as we think about our other friend having to look at your ass prints..... insecurity is not a good look on you two! See you soon I think the rental car contract states that only the rentee may leave ASS prints on the vehicle per section. 3.1.5 I'm not the rope totin charlie Bronson wanna be that's getting us fucking lost.
  17. Quote Hmmm didn't read all the posts, but why would a kid seeing a gun be a bad thing. IMO they should be taught about firearms. what if they come across one at some point and accidentally shoot somebody cause they don't know how to handle one. http://www.notsoboringlife.com/ramblings/top-10-causes-of-accidental-death/ Plus it's not the legal carries that went through proper channels to obtain and carry a gun I would be worried about, but the ones you don't see that the criminals are carrying.

  19. snicker>>> Schlitterbahn Schlitterbahn is a German word meaning "slippery road", which represents the water slides in the water parks. German immigrants were a large segment of the pioneers who settled Texas, and their influence is still seen in such names. "Norm here" thank you Cliff Claven I'm not the rope totin charlie Bronson wanna be that's getting us fucking lost.
  20. I should be able to bring my two 10x10 popups and the old yellow PD tent down as well. Just need a sledge hammer and someone willing to swing it, cause I aint. Be careful where you put your popups... If Im lucky they will get blown away! We may want to consider putting bright orange flags on top of all tents and pop ups so that people can see them when coming in the land. Ok somebody help me out, where is the post on hotel info?? I cant find it, saw it a week ago or so and now I'm lost. Can someone send me a link? uggh! Thank you! Looks like that info was on the very first post.

  21. Oh, brrrr! It got really cold at night last year. Bring your thermals! Colder than Zhills over Christmas??? If so, I think I need to pull my name off the list.... This doesn't look bad at all. Nothing a few shots and a warm body can't take care of. March Normal High: 70°F Normal Low: 47°F Normal Average: 58°F I'm not the rope totin charlie Bronson wanna be that's getting us fucking lost.
  22. Mmmmm liquor and fruit can't go wrong there. I think I'll have to make some watermelon ones for the boogie.
  23. It's Mister Jackass to you sally-boy I'm not the rope totin charlie Bronson wanna be that's getting us fucking lost.
