256bits replied to the thread Winch rope force to pull back a folding canopy.Edited Post #7 thanks. -
256bits replied to the thread Construction How do I fix a hedgehog enclosure that keeps getting too humid.Clean its poop bed every day. Could be the reason its smelling funky. And lots of bedding. -

The video stated that at the surface, water was de-aerated and ice was formed using the triple point of water principle. It even showed... -

Informative.
I think what they were doing was subjecting water to high vacum , this would first de gas the water and then cause it to boil , even... -

It's sure been a wild ride this year! Between some AI missteps and breaking LaTeX for a good portion of the year (at least we got dark... -
256bits replied to the thread Winch rope force to pull back a folding canopy.No there will not be. A toggle joint cannot support vertical forces transmitted through the joint. Any vertical force put at the... -
256bits replied to the thread High School Does acceleration affect impact energy vs constant velocity?.All the answers given are really quite good to point you in the right direction, especially noting that the consequences of including an... -
