and length wise I'd imagine. A load of tosh. Brian -- ----- - This newsgroup posting comes to you directly from... The Sofa of Brian Gaff... Blind user, so no pictures please!

I've even heard a warning that if you stay in your bath too long (indoors at room temperature!) that you can die!

The brakes decelerate each train at the rate of 1.0 m/s2. Is there a collision? What distance do the trains need to allow between them to stop at this deceleration? What deceleration do the two trains need to have to stop in exactly a distance of 938m? |

Ah right, I misread the earlier post and assumes bath to refer to a tub of water. Surely most people refer to it just as "a sauna" or maybe sauna room? Well, a Turkish bath is the same as a sauna, but with 30% humidity instead of 0%. I would assume a Turkish bath/steam room to have a humidity approaching 100%, in fact it's more than an assumption, a quick google search verifies that. Sauna is 100% humidity Wrong - if it was, you would be literally boiled alive. "A sauna is a room made from softwood and incorporates a heater €” either electric or wood-burning €” that is capable of reaching 190° Fahrenheit and up. An average healthy individual can tolerate that kind of heat because it is a dry environment with extremely low humidity." |
