The first correct answer will win a nice prize courtesy of your friends at Hondacuraworld :)

What does this equation represent?
rvehock
The circumference of an atom?
nightguy
Combustion ?
Warzau
HMMM knowing Tim it has something to do with soundwaves or radio? Or how to transmit radio waves?

The force necessary to split an atom.
hondacuraworld
None of the above.

What does this equation represent? A zero on my mid-term! :D

I don't know but this is interesting...

What if an electron were the size of an apple....

Well, the classical radius of an electron (this is the 'electo-magnetic field' type of radius - nobody has actually measured the exact radius of an electron.) is about 2.82 x 10-15 m. An average size of an apple is about 4 cm or 0.04 m in radius (at least the apples I just got today from the supermarket:-).

So the scalling factor is just: radius of the apple / radius of the electron which is: 4 x 10-2 m / 2.82 x 10-15 m = 1.42 x 1013

This means that in the universe where the electron is as big as an apple in ours everything will be bigger by a factor of 1.42 x 1013 or 14,200,000,000,000 (fourteen trillion and two hundred billion times bigger.)

So now you can calculate how big would the human be: for example I am 6 ft (1.83 m) tall so in your apple-sized-electron universe I would be: 1.83 m x 1.42 x 1013 = 2.6 x 1013 m tall! Just to give you an idea how tall I would be: it would take light a full day to travel from my toes to my nose! (and it only takes about 8 minutes for light to travel from the Sun to the Earth.) Also, I would be about 3.5 times taller than the diameter of our Solar System (farthest reaches of the Pluto orbit are at about 7.37 x 1012 m.)

Hawking's new theory on black holes ?

It definitely looks like some sort of energy balancing equation and without wave functions it doesn't look like anything related to string theory.

It must have something to do with Quantales.

Dammit!

but if ng's answer isn't specific enough, it's the amount of energy that leaks from a black hole. Or something like that.
hondacuraworld
Nope! :)

Hawking now believes that black holes do not destroy information, previously he said that black holes start losing mass by radiating energy. This "Hawking radiation" contains no information about the matter inside the black hole and once the black hole evaporates, all information is lost.
Warzau
How about the radiation emmited by a solar flare?

How about some hints on the X variables?

Has to do with Microsoft's recent patent for using the human body as a bus to transmit data and/or sound waves.

The measurement of time in the space time continum, and the amount of gigawatts needed to travel.

Finally Continum, relates to Continuosly Variable Transmission, hence CVT.

Hey Warzau-

You know that any Flux Capacitor must be equated with a Silicone Rectifier before it can be placed in the "D". What's the matter with you?

I still would like a hint on the X variables.

It appears to be related to "momentum" The first portion of the calculation (x0 ^2 + x1^2 +…) is associated with 4 vector momentum.

How about one of the manifolds that are used to illustrate Super String Theory??

Manifolds are a topological space that is used to represent normal Euclidean space.

I am not a regular member here, so I won't say what the answer is, but I will give a clue to help a regular win the prize. Think exhaust.....

BTW, the prize is a pic of Tim in a speedo, so you might want to reconsider winning this contest.

I am a member of MENSA - and I couldn't figure it out :1: . Being a member of MENSA means you can score well on IQ tests, it doesn't mean you know everything - which my wife tells me all the time anyway!! :2:

I only know Super-String theory from studying GPB at school. The entire upper school at my school takes a month off of normal school and studies something in depth. I did Emerging Technologies this year in which we took a trip to So Cal, spent 2 days at Northrop Grumman, 2 days at Stanford (one day and the GPB lab, the other at SLAC) SeaLaunch...etc. It was awesome. So...that is how I knew it. :)
