Another update I haven't posted any news in a while, so here goes. I have been working on my physics final project recently, as well as studying for the AP Chemistry exam. Recently I did build a photogate for my calculator though, with a .0001 second accuracy. When it's completely finished, I'll be posting the plans. I also built a Leyden jar and an electroscope so now I can play with static electricity. If I don't like you, do this: Take a piece of aluminum foil as large as will fit on your TV screen (use a big TV). Turn it off, and wait a few minutes. Then put on the sheet of aluminum foil (push it with your sock or something), then turn the TV on, wait 5 seconds, and touch. I did that twice on a 32" :) Re: Another update 15 April 2003 04:58 Nick PeadenMind you... remember the forums about shocks... well... I have another one...My laptop...It builds a huge static field around itself Re: Another update 18 April 2003 16:22 slimey_limeyOld computer monitors (from ~1990 or earlier) also build up a lot of static. Re: Another update 21 April 2003 10:08 YangsterYou're STILL studying for the AP Chem test?! Re: Re: Another update 21 April 2003 23:01 westhebassThe AP Chem test isn't untill the second week of May. And it covers a whole year of college chemistry, so he's probably been studying since last June... |
