I see so many ad posts on lemmy now… They have to do something about it. This one is particular bad tho…

Fuck snow! Need more warming! /s

Doesn’t matter what Ukraine is doing - Russia should just fuck off and go home.

Unfortunately your explanation is wrong: the reason why satellites in low earth orbit fall back to earth is, that in those heights (about 500km above earths surface) the thin remaining atmosphere creates drag and slow the satellites down.

About gravity: gravity is the reason, why satellites even stay in orbit and keep circling the earth. Without gravity, all the satellites would just fly away.

The actual unit is lower case, the multiplier is uppercase.

Wouldn’t agree with that… There are many different units and multipliers. the letter being uppercase or lowercase has nothing to do with it.

Examples:

letters for prefixes/multipliers being uppercase and lowercase: P, T, G, M, k, h, da, d, c, m, u, n (trillion, billion, million, thousand, hundred, ten, one tenth, one hundredth, one thousandth, one millionth, one billionth)

Letters for units being uppercase and lowercase: s, m, g, N, W, J, A, K, V, h, Hz (seconds, meter, gram, Newton, Watt, Joule, Ampere, Kelvin, Volt, hour, Hertz) (just recognised, that most units, which are named after scientists, are written with capital letters…)

km = thousand meters/kilometer

K = Kelvin (unit for temperature)

M = Mega (prefix for one million)

kJ = thousand joules

s = second

ms = millisecond (one thousandth)

S = siemens (electrical conductivity)

mS = milli siemens

mm = millimeter (one thousandth of a meter)

Mm = megameter (one million meters or thousand kilometers)

The map does not make any mistake!

I remember it like this:

Finals - 1 match - 2 participants

Semifinals - 2 matches - 4 participants

Quarterfinals - 4 matches - 8 participants

Round of 16 - 8 matches - 16 participants

Round of 32 - 16 matches - 32 participants

In every round, half of the participants are eliminated and the other half moves on. Also the number of matches is reduced by a half every round.

Make purple yellow and one of the reds purple.
