Thank you Fred. i have enjoyed reading this!
Mr. Kevmo, you never did demonstrate that you know the difference between a watt and a joule. As a degreed (two!) electrical engineer I am qualified to debunk this nonsense. Be so kind as to answer some questions:
A 100 watt light bulb is operated for one hour at 120 V AC
1) What was the current?
2) What is the bulb’s resistance
3) How much energy was consumed?
Mr. Kevmo, you never did demonstrate that you know the difference between a watt and a joule.
***Well, to be candid, I demonstrated that I knew the difference between an Amp and a Watt, which, since you’re backing up the poster who didn’t know the difference... it would appear that you have not demonstrated that you know the difference. I am qualified to debunk your nonsense.
Be so kind as to answer some questions:
***Since you’re the one who demonstrated ignorance about the difference between an amp and a Watt, you will need to go first, Mr. 2 degrees.
1) Care to explain the 14,000 times that the PF Anomalous Heat Event has been REPLICATED?
2) Same hypothetical as above: What is 1Watt + 1Watt?
3) Same hypothetical as above: You have a resistor to measure. Electricity in, heat out. 100Watts in, 99 Watts of heat out. You verify the measurement for 6 continuous days.
Then someone hands you a black box resistor. You measure 100Watts electrical in, 150Watts heat out. You measure the volume, and if it were to have been filled with ANY Chemical (Like gasoline), it would burn out within 2 minutes, but you’re seeing the heat out for 20,000 minutes. You look for extra wires, external sources and find none. You invite 6 other colleagues to find them, to no avail.
What is the Energy Density of the first resistor compared to the second one?
