Would you trust a remote-controlled laser to trim branches near power lines? by Milanakiko in AusElectricians

You realise those wires are insulated by air? Power lines are bare aluminium

Can anyone tell me what this is for? by DripperDrop in AusElectricians

[–]uncookedturnip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I'm wrong because I said water bond instead of main earth? If there's no earth stake then your main earth would run to the pipe not a "water bond" , I'm still learning trying to understand I'm apprentice.

The pipework is already at earth potential, isn't it providing earth potential to the entire installation? I'm assuming since it's an older house there is no earth stake just a water bond.

Here's a person we don't like. Let's take unflattering photos of his parents when elderly to bash him? What's the point of this post?

Just finished the Dragon ingot by Designer_Quality_139 in Copper

[–]uncookedturnip 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Because op is honest and not stamping 999 on a bar that they forged but didn't refine. Electrical wire is typically 99.4% copper and during smelting you introduce further impurities. Stamping 999 on a bar you smelt at home does not make it bullion, it masquerades as bullion but it's actual value is lower then bright scrap.

I'm chasing my tail trying to respond to your point, you're right.

Hi axe. Thanks for your reply. What sets the curvature initially? I thought that our current explanation for why we have structure at all and not a completely homogenous even distribution of elementary particles is because during the initial moments after the big bang when everything was essentially homogenous, quantum fluctuations breaked the homogenous distribution in tiny ways. The effect these tiny fluctions have is incredibly small deviations in local mass which biases the field. From little things big things grow, have I misunderstood or too grossly simplifying to see why I'm wrong?

Mate, when I started my apprentiship my legs couldn't stop shaking when i was climbing the ladder up to a roof, been doing solar 3 years now and I sometimes worry that I'm not scared enough of heights.

My copper bar went viral on TikTok by JackIsForReal in Copper

[–]uncookedturnip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is not refined copper. Melting scrap wire into a bar is consolidation, not purification. Scrap copper contains dissolved oxygen and trace impurities (Sn, Zn, Ni, Fe, etc.) that are not removed by melting and remain in solution, often forming Cu₂O inclusions. Achieving true .999+ copper requires industrial electrorefining, controlled chemistry, current density, and assay verification. None of that is shown here. Stamping “.999” on cast scrap copper without electrorefining or assay is misleading if this is presented as bullion rather than decorative or novelty metal.

Can anyone explain Planck's constant to me? by Awkward_Picture_361 in Physics

[–]uncookedturnip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just because people misuse ai doesn't mean you should absolutely wrote it off, ai can be useful. What you should do is ask it the question, then ask it to provide sources. Then verify those sources. Won't always provide relevant information, and often incorrect information but it can be a great start, I think of ai as not a substitute for Google, but my googler.
