How Many?

[90019]

How many class 89s were there in the UK as of 06/05/06?

 

[me123]

1. There only ever was one, and it was made back in 1989.

Of course, there is the odd classification for preserved vehicles; that number is at 60 so the 60+Avocet=61?

 

[90019]

Exactly

It's for preserved diesel and elecric locos that are registered to run on the mainline
It is an odd one though

One has been scrapped, and another 6 have been withdrawn and are in storage.

How many years did the hundred years war last?

 

[Phoenix]

Yep

How many years did the hundred years war last?

A Vague answer but over 100 years

But the actual answer as far as I know is 1337 to 1453

 

[90019]

so, how many years?

you gotta work it out

 

[Ilove165's]

I'll have a stab at 124 years....

Sam

 

[90019]

Not quite

 

[Coxster]

If the dates in Phoenix's answer are indeed correct, it'd be 116.

116?

 

[90019]

Yes, it's 116 (although some say 117)

[heart-of-wessex]

degrees in pi? errrrrr no idea....40?

 

[90019]

[me123]

[90019]

Exactly

ok, how many cumecs in every m³/s of water flowing in a river?

 

[mbonwick]

Cumec is short for Cubic Metres per Second

 

[90019]

Correct

How many litres in 12 dm³?

 

[mbonwick]

12

1 decimeter cubed = l litre

 

[90019]

hmm, methinks i need to find something a little more difficult.

 

[me123]

How about molar concentrations?

 

[Ilove165's]

How about molar concentrations?

What the...?

Sam

 

[90019]

How about molar concentrations?

cba with them, i stopped chemistry last year for a reason


How many inches in a Spanish pie? (approximate, dont bother with decimals)

 

[me123]

What the...?

Sam

Chemical molar concentrations; ie how many molecules in a 5.4mol solution of Potassium Hydrogencarbonate and other nice things like that; much more challenging

 

[90019]

Chemical molar concentrations; ie how many molecules in a 5.4mol solution of Potassium Hydrogencarbonate and other nice things like that; much more challenging

That pretty much sums up why I gave up chemistry last year.
mind you, i do still have my Q=IT, etc. calcuations thing made with sticky notes up on my wall, along with all the other random crap (including bits of my old phone )

 

[mbonwick]

Well in a mole of any substance there will always be 6.02 x10^23 atoms..
