How come my arrow keys no longer work to move cells in an excel worksheet?

Saturday, October 31st, 2009

I used to be able to press the up, down, left, and right arrows in order to navigate individual cells in an Microsoft Excel worksheet. Now, however, the arrow keys merely move my view of the worksheet; the highlighted cell remains static.

Any ideas? Thanks.

You probably accidentally hit the "Scroll Lock" key on you keyboard. Try turning it off.

What are the products of an addition reaction of 2bromobutane with sodium methoxide?

Saturday, October 31st, 2009

We havn’t covered addition reactions without double bonds and its in the assignment. Any help would be much appreciated thanks!
thats why i can’t work it out. its the third question with the same reactants…i’v already done elimination and nucleophilic substitution

Seems like it would be an elimination reaction instead. Methoxide is a strong base, so it would deprotonate 2-bromobutane.

The two possible products are trans-2-butene and 1-butene.

What fraction of the total kinetic energy is the rotational kinetic energy of the wheels on a bike?

Saturday, October 31st, 2009

A bicycle has wheels of radius 0.23 m. Each wheel has a rotational inertia of 0.093 kg ยท m2 about its axle. The total mass of the bicycle including the wheels and the rider is 72 kg. When coasting at constant speed, what fraction of the total kinetic energy of the bicycle (including rider) is the rotational kinetic energy of the wheels?

The TOTAL kinetic energy is the sum of translational AND rotational kinetic energy.

So (after much substitution, rearrangment and cancellation)

%rot = (2*I/r**2) / ( 2*I/r**2 + m)

where:
I = mass moment of inertia for the wheels = .093 kg*m**2
r = radius of wheels = .23 m
m = total mass of cycle and rider = 72 kg

%rot = [2*.093/.23**2] / { [2*.093/.23**2] + 72 }*100
= (3.52)/(3.52 + 72) *100
= 4.66 %

How do you mutiply fractions by a number?

How do you mutiply fractions by a number?

Such as 8(3/4)
or -14(5/8)

How exactly do you complete this? Without a calculator? Most explanitive gets 10pts :] And no it’s not for homework.

you take the whole number and put it over 1 as denominator and then multiply the problem nominator x nominator /denominator x denominator and you should get either a fraction or a whole number. it depends which one you are given

Where can I find worksheets to help with my kids self estem?

Saturday, October 31st, 2009

Looking for a website with worksheets or maybe someone has some they can e-mail me.

Worksheets do not help with a child’s self-esteem.

Spend some time learning about how a child’s self-esteem is built up–by reading books on it yourself–and then take action. There’s no quick fix, and definitely no worksheets for a child. The worksheets might say they help, but building self-esteem in a child is not about giving them a few worksheets and they’re "fixed"; it’s about the day-in, day-out of how people treat them and how they view themselves.

You can do a search online and will find things:

How do you convert 75 degrees into a radians fraction with pi in the numerator?

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

I need the answer in radians in fraction form, and I have the use of a basic calculator.

75? = (75?/180) radians

=5?/12

Is it possible to automatically sync the worksheets within an Excel document?

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

I have a spreadsheet in Excel which contains of four worksheets. One of the worksheets is a compilation of all the information in the other three sheets.

My question is: is there an option somewhere that will allow the information in the other worksheets to be automatically synced should I choose to add or update information in one of the sheets?

To link the data between worksheets you have to reference from one to the other.

So in Sheet4 A1 put
=SUM(Sheet1!A1,Sheet2!A1,Sheet3!A1)

You can drag this formula down and across to create a complete total sheet which always stays up to date.

In algebra, what is the difference between rule and roster?

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

In algebra, the definition of rule is a description identifying the members of a set. The definition of a roster is how you specify a set when listing all members of a set. I kind of get the gist of this, but do you think you could explain it in greater detail and/or give examples? I’m kind of confused on how to identify this (aka, if I take a quiz over it sometime. Which may be in the near future. Like tomorrow.) Help is appreciated!

In roster form, you actually list all the elements.
A = {a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, y, z} is in roster form.

The rule for this set is that A is the letters of the alphabet.

worksheets?

Monday, October 26th, 2009

does anyone know where i can find easy and free ”missing picture” printouts. these are for 6 year olds with disabilitys so they have to be easy. example: a picture of an elephant with its trunk missing.

Im not sure, but if you dont have any luck, maybe you can make your own! Take a picture, and with Paint, you can erase something from it! … Good luck!

I am doing division and multiplication homework. Its asking what a commutative property is…And i dont know what it is. PLEASE HELP ME OUT HERE PEOPLE!!!

commutative property is where:
