spark cannon

thats just a fancy name for an air-assisted coilgun. that fires charged cap's.

now, to those of you that care, using the speed of light as the speed of a pulse in water (or wave.) we get a freq. of 786.67 Megahertz, taking into account the slowered down speed of light in water (refraction index). Without the index, considering an electron will travel through water faster than a photon will, we get 1.046 Gigahertz. So i now have a range to play with, between 700 and 1000 megahertz, using the whole bondlength of a liquid water molecule with assymetric stretch between the atoms (the majority of the molecules in a non-perfect environment having assymetric stretch). (yawn/sigh). Halving the bond length effectively doubles the freq, meaning about 1.5 to 2 Ghz. Now this is all based on the idea that i was using the correct speed of a pulse/wave through water, considering i didn't know what that meant and assumed speed of light or an electron. i should probably still take the next 50$ i get and double check with the local physics club.

Thats turning something on and off between 1.5 and 2 billion times a second, with the appropriately spaced electrodes hoping to help things along a little bit.

thats gonna be.....not fun. 555 timers, anyone? LOL sounds like i should go back to the electronics forum and ask how they would do it. a few months break tends to....break ones memory down a little. whoops.

yawn. that and i'm also doing part four (final part) of the golden angel story arc, which means i'll probably be up for a while and/or wait to finish it tommorow. Goody! Wait til you see what happens man, boo yeah.
