AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on a video demonstrating how to distinguish between a raw and a boiled egg through spinning. One participant critiques the reliability of the method shown in the video, suggesting a more effective technique involves briefly halting the spin to observe the fluid dynamics inside a raw egg. Concerns are raised about the safety of the video link, with one user reporting that it crashed their computer. Despite the warnings, another user confirms the link works for them. The conversation highlights skepticism about the original post's intent and the potential risks associated with the shared link.

Speed and duration of spin? That looks pretty unreliable.. a better way is to spin the egg then briefly halt it's motion. The raw egg will resume its spin, because the fluid inside has not stopped.
 
Actually I knew about this, raw eggs are MUCH harder to keep spinning at a high rate.
 
Warning, clicking the link crashed my computer just now. Wonder what would motivate someone to join a forum just to make one post, about a link that crashes people's computers...
 
Link works for me...
 

Thread 'Why can't Solar panels be hemispherical, or a curved strip type?'

comparing a flat solar panel of area 2π r² and a hemisphere of the same area, the hemispherical solar panel would only occupy the area π r² of while the flat panel would occupy an entire 2π r² of land. wouldn't the hemispherical version have the same area of panel exposed to the sun, occupy less land space and can therefore increase the number of panels one land can have fitted? this would increase the power output proportionally as well. when I searched it up I wasn't satisfied with...

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...
