Extending the shelf life of Acetic Acid battery

AI Thread Summary
Acetic acid batteries have a limited power duration primarily due to their capacity, which is determined by the amount of electrode material present. Unlike capacitors, which are defined by capacitance, batteries rely on the chemical reactions occurring within to store and release energy. The specific reactions that enable acetic acid batteries to function involve the interaction of acetic acid with the electrodes. Increasing the quantity of electrode material can enhance the battery's capacity and potentially extend its shelf life. Understanding these factors is crucial for improving the performance and longevity of acetic acid batteries.

Why do Acetic Acid Battery power devices only for short periods of time? Does it have to do with Capacitance?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Capacitance is a property of a capacitor, not battery. In the case of battery we speak about its capacity. Basically the more electrode material inside the battery, the higher the capacity.

What is the acetic acid battery? What is the reaction responsible for its working? What are the amounts of electrode materials present?
 

Thread 'The Physics of unloading sand from a barge'

I think it's easist first to watch a short vidio clip I find these videos very relaxing to watch .. I got to thinking is this being done in the most efficient way? The sand has to be suspended in the water to move it to the outlet ... The faster the water , the more turbulance and the sand stays suspended, so it seems to me the rule of thumb is the hose be aimed towards the outlet at all times .. Many times the workers hit the sand directly which will greatly reduce the water...
