How Do You Calculate Static Thrust from Fan Specifications?
To strive: Since kinetic energy is 1/2 mass * velocity^2, shouldn't power be 1/2 mass flow * velocity^2- bkiag

Graduate Why do two wires with currents in the same direction attract?
Thanks for the response! Like charges repel, no? I'm not sure if my question was stated clearly. Maybe if I give an analogy... Two cars are driving down the highway next to each other. Each car represents a current and each car has a positive charge. If you're sitting in one of...- bkiag

Why Is One Side of a Diode Heavily Doped?
Then you don't have to worry about depletion on the heavily doped side, i.e. it's negligible- bkiag

Graduate Why do two wires with currents in the same direction attract?
I understand that using F = qv x B and the fact that positive currents generate counter clockwise magnetic fields, it can be concluded that two parallel wires carrying currents in the same direction attract. But what about when you think about it in the frame of reference of the charges in...- bkiag
