I watched a home video about the Tesla coil and saw the electric bolts...i thought the guy was standing kinda close to this thing but never got struck. Is there a limit to how far away the bolts of electricity can go from the coil? They looked pretty random.
So as you can see, the drawing I've attached shows two bolts through those 3 plates. There are the shown forces acting on the plates, and the maximum allowed shear stress is given to be 110 MPa. You're supposed to determine the minimum diameter required for the bolts. Also, the forces are...
Can the electron avalanches like in lightning bolts be sustained using extremely high voltage AC current?
Man-made bolts are much more "wild" and short than the lightning hitting the Earth from the sky. Why is it so? Is this because the electric field in the clouds is less divergent?
What is exact assembling accessories for pyrotechnic bolts(explosive bolts)...How they work?...
What is main source of procurement of these explosive bolts?
Does anyone know of any good problem solving books on strings, branes and/or loop quantum qravity? I am looking for something that has a lot of actual solved problems, something in the spirit of Schaum's Outline Series, Zetteli's book on QM, or Peskin and Schroeder's book on QFT. Any...
