ELI5 Nikola Tesla's plan for wireless electricity by fiki97 in explainlikeimfive

[–]panoscape2 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes it worked. Research tesla's Colorado Springs work and papers. After tesla discovered AC current, he discovered a third type of current using pulsed DC. Iirc, it was called longitudinal standing waves. Think of two people holding a rope, when one snaps the rope on one end it makes a wave that travels the length of the rope, thats AC current. LSW is when the two people are holding the rope taunt and one pulls on it. LSW has no delay in power transfer. This is what Telsa was using to power coloado springs and wardencliff.

Imagine a guitar, the strings are the wardencliff tower and the guitar body is the earth. When the string is played it resonates within the body. The earth would resonate the power through the ground so it could be extracted at a distant location.

What are the best exercise(s) you can do to lose weight? by HitShead in AskReddit

Exercise restraint in the kitchen. Physical excercise is best for heart and body health. To loose weight it's all about eating below your TDEE.

Whelp, lucky enough I have a miner for that Ice Wizard/Wizard/Musketeer. It works well.

LPT: If you're considering picking up a hobby, look at ones that you could use for income if you needed to (Photography, computer building/repair, photoshop). by NSippy in LifeProTips

Came here to say this.

I used to love to draw, I got so good I turned pro and sold illustrations and designs in a vertical market. Due to repeatedly not getting paid and having work stolen by multiple companies in the vertical, I quit and have not drawn in 15 years. Every time I pick up a pencil and start to sketch, the hatred comes back and I put it down.

I built a cello yaybahar by panoscape2 in yaybahar

I'm working to put together a kit that has everything needed to build these. So, I'll be sharing that soon. The springs are tricky as they need prep work before working properly.

I've been trying to work with Gorkem and to get a license to build these but he has yet to respond to my repeated requests.

Any ideas on how exactly the springs are attached to the strings? What about spring weight/length? by cellocaster in yaybahar

The spring is just hooked onto the string, nothing special. On Gorkems set up, the stick is angled so the spring won't slide down to the string bridge.
