What is the sign in front of a building called?
Building signs help you stand out from your surroundings and the competition. Incorporating logos, colors and graphics into building signs that match your message and brand identity are important. There are several types of high-visibility signs that make it easy for people to find you such as dimensional letters, dimensional logos, building directories, monument signs and name plates.

How do you get to the Washington monument in Fallout 3?
it is in the middle of the DC ruins, if you go to GNR and take the back way, then go through the metro eventually you will get to the mall and you will see it from there :D
Why does the Washington monument change color?
The Washington Monument changes color because of the different types of building material used. Construction of the monument was stopped for about 20 years. When contruction resumed, a different shade of mable/granite was used.
It takes 70 seconds for the elevator to ascend 500 feet (152 meters) from the lobby to the observation level of the Washington Monument. That equals 1 minute 10 seconds.

Why is the marble on the Washington Monument two different colors?
Because when the construction was halted the marble was shipped from different quarries.
Does the Washington Monument go underground?
The Washington Monument is built on a solid foundation. There are no underground areas.
Why did the construction of the Washington monument come to a halt at 150 ft?
It came to halt because of the lack of funds they had.
Ignoring resistance, integrate a(t)=-32 ft/sec2. Should get V(t)=-32t+C1
The initial Velocity is the velocity of the object at time t=0. If we plug t=0 into V(t) the result is V(0)=C1 which is what we want to find. We will need to integrate a second time to find the position function x(t). The result should be x(t)=-16t2+C1t+C2. We are given an inital position of zero since the object is thrown from the ground, therefore,
x(0)=0 which implies C2=0. So our position function is x(t)=-16t2+C1t. We want to know C1 when x(t)=550. This gives the resulting equation 550=-16t2+C1t. Now the original question asked the initial velocity needed to reach a height of 550. Since we are not concerned about throwing it higher than 550 ft we can assume that we are looking for the highest point or maximum height the object will reach. The max value of a quadratic function occurs at its vertex when leading coeff. is negative. In Calculus we say this point is when the functions "slope" or derivative is equal to zero. So set x(t)'s derivative (which is V(t)) equal to zero. You should now have 0=-32t+C1. This equation is true when t=C1/32. This is the time when the function is at its maximum. We still need to find C1 so plug your expression for t into 550=-16t2+C1t. Skipping a couple algebra steps you should get to 550=(-C12+2C12)/64 which gives C12=35200 and C1=187.6. Which we already showed was equal to the initial Velocity.
... integration haha
its easy you go acceleration<--->velocity<--->distance or height
having in mind 32 and 550 you have:
-16t2+ 550
solve for t and you get 5.86 rounding
then you plug in 5.86 into
-16(5.86)2+ v(5.86)
and you get 187.617 rounding
Is a one dollar bill with a picture of the Washington monument on the front worth anything?
This answer assumes it's a modern green-seal bill:
It's worth $1. It's an ordinary $1 bill altered by a private company that pasted a picture of the monument over top of George Washington. You should be able to peel it off or if you can't, you might be able to see George's portrait if you hold the bill up to a strong light.
It's the same as the "Santa Claus", "Easter Bunny", "Elvis", "George Bush" bills and others that are available in novelty shops. Technically the practice is considered defacing US currency but the government doesn't bother to enforce the law unless someone creates a bill with the intent to deceive someone. Most of the time they're just treated as curiosities.
What is the purpose of the reflecting pool?
The Washington monument reflecting pool is to symbolize the deep thought and consideration that our leaders use to govern our country.
