It sounds like you’ve got a fun project going on! When it comes to simulating the disconnections of the spaceship pieces, you’re right that angular momentum plays a huge role. Here’s a basic way to think about it:
First, when the spaceship is rotating, each part of it has both linear and angular velocity. If you cut the ship, each piece should retain some of that rotational motion. To get the direction and speed for each piece, you can start by calculating the local velocity at the point of disconnection using the following equation:
V_local = ω × r
Here, ω (omega) is the angular velocity of the spaceship and r is the position vector from the center of mass of the ship to the point of disconnection. This velocity vector will tell you how fast that point was moving just before the cut.
After you have the local velocity, you’ll want to combine that with the overall linear velocity of the spaceship at the moment of disconnection:
V_piece = V_linear + V_local
In this equation, V_linear is the linear velocity of the spaceship’s center of mass. By adding these together, you get the resulting velocity for each piece as it disconnects.
As for handling the rotation of the pieces, you might want to set the angular velocity of each piece based on how it was rotating as part of the whole ship. You can calculate the moment of inertia for each piece and apply that to determine how they continue to rotate. If they were part of a rotating body, you could maintain their angular velocity just after the disconnection.
It might take some trial and error to get everything feeling right, but experimenting with these ideas could help you move in the right direction. Good luck with your spaceship project!
Wow, this actually sounds really tricky! At first glance, it seemed easy—just put the puzzle pieces together, right? But thinking about it more, it's probably way harder. If I had to try solving this, I'd probably start by figuring out things I've seen before, like common keywords: if, for, while, rRead more
Wow, this actually sounds really tricky! At first glance, it seemed easy—just put the puzzle pieces together, right? But thinking about it more, it’s probably way harder.
If I had to try solving this, I’d probably start by figuring out things I’ve seen before, like common keywords: if, for, while, return…the easy ones that clearly show what kind of structure the code has (hopefully!). Then maybe I’d look at punctuation separately, trying to match parentheses or curly braces that go together?
But honestly, I’d probably just stare at it for a bit first, scratching my head until something clicks. I think I’d focus on the easiest bits first. Maybe grouping little bits of punctuation to find the pairs (“()” or “{}”) and then placing them near familiar words to see if something meaningful appears. I’d probably move everything around a hundred times before anything useful shows up!
About JavaScript versus Python—oh man, choosing Python could be nicer because it’s pretty neat and organized, right? Less punctuation to keep track of! JavaScript would probably be a crazy nightmare with all those curly braces and semicolons everywhere. I can’t even imagine doing this with Java or C—yikes!
But seriously, sounds like one crazy puzzle! I’d definitely spend hours on this before getting anywhere close. Have you tried it yourself yet?
Oh wow, this sounds super fun! Let's try playing around a bit with this. Okay, so your rule is: If the number is even, multiply it by 2. If the number is odd, multiply it by 2 and then add 1. Let me do the math slowly here (I'm new at this!): Input: 10 Hmm, 10 is even, so just multiply by 2: 10 × 2Read more

Let me do the math slowly here (I’m new at this!):
Input: 10
Hmm, 10 is even, so just multiply by 2:
10 × 2 = 20
Input: 15
15 is odd, multiply by 2 and then add 1:
15 × 2 = 30, 30 + 1 = 31
Input: 23
23 is odd too, multiply by 2 and add 1:
23 × 2 = 46, 46 + 1 = 47
Now, you got me curious about that alternative rule…
So, what if we changed it to:
If the number’s even, multiply by 3.
If the number’s odd, multiply by 3 and add 2.
Let me try those inputs again just for fun:
Input: 10 (even)
10 × 3 = 30
Input: 15 (odd)
15 × 3 = 45, then add 2 = 47
Input: 23 (odd)
23 × 3 = 69, plus 2 = 71
Hmm, do you see the difference here? Numbers certainly start jumping differently now!
This is pretty intriguing actually—who knew numbers could have such fun personalities!? I’m going to keep playing around with some other numbers and rules. You should try too, and let’s see what cool patterns or quirky results we find!
Hmm, let's figure this out step by step! Okay, I’m new to this prime factor thing, but let me give it a try. We're checking 2310, right? First, I’ll divide it by small prime numbers and see if it works out nicely. 2310 ÷ 2 = 1155 – Nice, it's divisible by 2. 1155 ÷ 3 = 385 – Okay, divisible by 3 tooRead more

385 ÷ 5 = 77 – Cool! 5 works as well.
77 ÷ 7 = 11 – Oh that’s easy, 7 definitely works.
Last number 11, that’s prime for sure!
Wait a sec, let’s check primes we got: 2, 3, 5, 7, and 11.
That’s five primes though, not four. Oops, I thought we needed exactly four distinct primes!
So yeah, 2310 has exactly five prime factors (2, 3, 5, 7, 11), meaning it doesn’t fit our criteria of exactly four distinct prime factors.
Wow, this factoring thing is actually super fun! I guess next step would be to find a number with exactly four different prime factors. I’ll try another number now and see if I have better luck!
