Re: newbie inquiry:what kills
I think that there is a difference between those who have been struck directly by a lightning flash (now deceased!) and those who have been in the close vicinity of a strike! I find it just about

Re: Demonizing Hackers
Well, I just meant that both of us know where the other stand on the issue. Plus, I got out what I wanted to say. So, being done with that issue, I'm back in the mode of listening to the jabber of

Re: Digest Number 140
The electric field is just as easy to observe/quantify as the magnetic field. Both field exert a physical force. The physical force is measured as movement against a calibrated spring. The D'arsnval

Re: Capacitor - Charge- Energy
Mike, The Electric Field is a result of the charge difference on the two plates, simular to the Magnetic field between N and S magnetic poles. A magnetic field is the attraction between a N pole and a

Re: Capacitor - Charge- Energy
Sunantoro, I'm not so sure this is the case. I'm now leaning towards no electrons stored on the plates, but the "charge" is stored in the field, which is then able to induce a current in the plates

Re: Digest Number 140
d, I think it would depend on where this center plate is connected in relation to the voltage applied to the outer plates. If this center plate has no reference to these outer plates it should have no

Re: Digest Number 140
d, The theory books tell us that the field in a capacitor is electrostatic. Unlike the field around a coil that can be demonstrated to be magnetic, the field in a capacitor is difficult to test as far

Re: Digest Number 140
Sunan, I mean the field between the two plates. Magnetic fields induce current flow and current flow creates magnetic fields. Doesn't the field between the two plates have to be magnetic? -Mike
