Your problem there is that not all the converted mass becomes heat - some escapes as gamma rays. Also, the heat capacities aren't known anywhere near as accurately as they'd need to be! Nice idea though
Due to how our units are defined, c is fixed - its only dependence is the rate of ground-state Cs-133 hyperfine transitions. In trying to measure the speed of light, you're actually measuring how long a metre is!
Light travels 299792458m exactly (ignoring QED) in a vacuum, per second.

c is known exactly, as the metre is defined in terms of c and the second (which is defined in terms of the rate of hyperfine transitions in caesium-133 atoms).
c = 299792458 m/s exactly.
c can't be "measured" as such, as we know it exactly - when we "measure" the speed of light, we're...
lol yeah :D I've never blown a capacitor before, but had my fair share of transistors before I learned to bias them properly! Theyre boring though, they just stop working... no explosion.
All transistors should contain a little gelignite to let you know when you've messed up!
Amps are proportional to the amount of electrons flowing per seconds (charge unit
s per second)
Volts are related to the amount of energy each electron carries (energy per charge unit)
A normal PP3 (9V) battery:
connect the positive and negative terminals together and the positive will...
May be useful
This may be helpful, it may be completely wrong... you presumably understand it better than I do!
I've never been taught Fourier transforms, but I've read about them and used them occasionally - I can't quite make sense of you're data, but here's my basic understanding of FFT &...
Hi. I'm not actually doing an electronics course (Maths & Physics), but I have just finished building a 140W BJT guitar power amplifier and cabinet. I'm looking to build a FET-FET cascode preamplifier now, but am not too familiar with JFETs - So far, I've got:
