I've always loved the Orders of magnitude articles on wikipedia. There is one for acceleration too

comment Another Inclined plane question
What is $N$? At first, normal force came to mind. But if N is the normal force, and $\mu$ is the coefficient of friction and thus dimension-less, how can $N=10\mu$?

comment Why is the void devoid of an electric field?
Okay so let it require an infinte ammount of energy. I still wonder if its possible to deduce the opposite from maxwell's equations allone.

I see. So electrostatics allone won't settle the issue. Do you think a similiar result can be obtained using just maxwell's equations?

comment Modeling a bar magnet's magnetic flux inside a coil
@john Yes, flux through the coil as a function of distance between coil and magnet. As this is different from the field's strength (which does not take the area i.e. the number of turns and cross section into account) and I don't know to what extend the two functions differ, I stated my question in it's current from--just to be sure to get a precise answer.

comment How far would you need to displace your eyes to get meaningful depth perception of the stars?
Great, so we may begin producing 3D images of the sky, now that the voyager probes reach the frontiers of our sole system.
