  1. Past hour
  2. Nothing inherently wrong with Pres Trump selling Bibles...but considering his history (Grab'em by the what?) the optics of it are not good.
  3. I like your user name... If you saw my closet and dresser, you would think that is why I do what I do.
  4. Me too. Got out of cc debt in 2018 and went entirely to debit cards.
  5. I have a few very wealthy relatives ... 30- 50 million dollar wealthy .... my net worth is between 2-3 million .... my house and land is worth at least 1.5 million ....
  6. Just lie after lie about the jobs, ehh Meathead @BarryLaverty ....
  7. A well off man once told me that "Money begats money. Poor people work for their money...rich peoples money works for them".
  8. And those 5.5 million jobd were not real supply and demand private sector jobs ....
  9. How's everyone looking on the diamond?
  10. Let’s not forget that 5.5 million out of those 5.5 million jobs, they were all illegals who took them.
  11. Raiders got one hitting 24+ mph? Got one them cats that can outrun Tyreek Hill?
  12. Are you going to back the Ponzi scheme comment? I’m not going down any rabbit hole with you on anything else til then. No point.
  13. The wealthiest people I know use the banks money and not their own. I am low on investment incomes which is fine by me. But there is something to be said about people who make tons of money by leveraging the banks money for assets that pay for themselves. Requires a ton of discipline, some risk and sound decisions. 40 years of banking stability has made a lot of people rich. Due to government regulations the banks terms that the wealthy get are not the same that a guy starting out would get. Another way that our government has hamstringed our growth as an economy.
  14. Today
  15. I heard a Raider showed out in the 100. Let’s see if the Roughnecks verify it. LOL!
  16. Still have not heard or seen anything yet
  17. WHAT IS ELECTROMAGNETIC INDUCTION? Electromagnetic induction, is a fundamental principle that describes the generation of an electromotive force (EMF) across an electrical conductor in a changing magnetic field. This principle is central to much of modern technology, particularly in the generation and transmission of electrical power. What does this mean? Electromagnetic induction is the process by which a voltage can be induced in a conductor by changing the magnetic field around the conductor. This phenomenon was discovered independently by Michael Faraday in 1831 and Joseph Henry around the same time, leading to the formulation of Faraday's Law of Induction. This law states that the induced electromotive force in any closed circuit is equal to the negative of the time rate of change of the magnetic flux enclosed by the circuit. How it Occurs: There are two primary scenarios in which electromagnetic induction occurs: 1. Relative motion between a conductor and a magnetic field If a conductor moves through a magnetic field, or if a magnetic field moves around a stationary conductor, the change in magnetic flux over time through the surface bounded by the conductor induces a voltage in the conductor. 2. Changing the intensity of a magnetic field A time-varying magnetic field through a stationary conductor loop induces a voltage in the loop. This change can be achieved by altering the magnitude or direction of the magnetic field. The direction of the induced EMF and current (if the circuit is closed) is given by Lenz's Law, which states that the direction of the induced current will be such that it opposes the change in magnetic flux that produced it. This is a manifestation of the conservation of energy. Where can we take advantage of this? Electromagnetic induction has a myriad of applications in both consumer electronics and industrial machinery Electric Generators: Mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy by rotating a coil within a magnetic field, inducing a current in the coil. Transformers: These devices use electromagnetic induction to increase or decrease voltage levels, enabling efficient long-distance power transmission. Induction Motors: Widely used in industry, these motors operate without direct electrical connections to the rotor, instead using electromagnetic induction from the magnetic field of the stator winding. Wireless Charging: Devices such as smartphones and electric toothbrushes can be charged without wires by inducing an electric current in the device through a changing magnetic field. Inductive Heating: Utilized in industrial processes and cooking appliances, it involves generating heat in a metal object by inducing electric currents within the material, which resistively heat due to their internal resistance. Other aspects Energy Efficiency The efficiency of devices that use electromagnetic induction, such as transformers and motors, is a critical area of research and development. Improvements can lead to significant energy savings and reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Magnetic Materials The properties of materials used in the core of coils (e.g., soft iron) are crucial because they affect the efficiency of induction by minimizing energy loss. Safety Considerations In high-power applications, the strong magnetic fields used can pose risks to humans and sensitive electronics if not properly managed. Summary Electromagnetic induction is a cornerstone of modern electrical engineering and physics, enabling the generation, manipulation, and application of electrical energy across a broad spectrum of technologies. From the basic principles laid out by Faraday and Henry to contemporary advances in materials science and electronic engineering, the study and utilization of electromagnetic induction continue to drive innovation and improve the efficiency and functionality of electrical devices and systems.
