I need to know....

[Booney]

I need to know why do females ask lots of questions

They in fact know very little and struggle to retain any new information given to them.





Hi A Mum, FC, JAS, Kiwi etc etc...

That's only half right.

I know EVERYTHING but don't tell me anything because I'm a goldfish and will forget it 10 mins later

[Q.]

I need to know why I'm suddenly getting significantly more mileage out of a full tank of fuel in my car. I have a new set of tyres and given that the previous set were literally bald, would the extra centimetre/s (or thereabouts) on the circumference of the new set affect the spin cycle of the input shaft to the odometer OR would the improved traction increase the fuel efficiency?

[Booney]

When you say significant? 30-40kms?

or perhaps these ones are inflated to the correct pressure ?

Yep.

Always keep them well inflated, just didn't want to fork out for a new set until I absolutely had to

Quichy - extra rubber on your tyres (meaning a larger circumference) would result in the odometer running slower for the same distance travelled, not faster.

I reckon your improvement in mileage is a result of the new tyres having less friction and possibly also being better aligned and balanced.

I'm wondering if this should go in the Cricket Forum, but will post here anyway...

I'm taking Mini-Jase to the 20/20 game on the 20th of January, his first ever cricket match, my first one in years... obviously sitting on the hill near the scoreboard would be fraught with danger but if we were closer to the members stand would that be "safe" enough...?

I have delicate ears...

Cheers

Is the family hill still next to the Bradman stand?

[Footy Smart]

Think you will find its next to the members at the catherdral end. No alcohol zone

Excellent, we'll be parking in North Adelaide somewhere so that will be ideal ...

Thanks for the advice...

Okay, I thought there may have been an inverse relationship there, but obviously not!

whilst not explicitly the 'Family' Hill but it is definitely tamer than the scoreboard end

You would actually be travelling slightly further but odometer would still read the same. I think...

[Ian]

??
how could you travel further, the distance from point A to point B doesn't change.

1 revolution of the tyre will still give the same odometer/speedo reading no matter the tyre diameter, the actual distance travelled and speed travelled at will change if the tyre diameter changes.

[Q.]

So, if the odometer mechanism is soley dependent on number of wheel revolutions to count distance travelled,

if you increase the wheel diameter you'll actually be covering more kilometres than your odometer is counting?

Look at it this way;
Current circumference for example 1m, increase the diameter therefore circumference might go up to 1.1m. Odo still counts 1 revolution as 1 metre, but you are actually travelling 1.1m.
