WAY TOO VAGUE

HOW DO YOU MAKE A POTATO GUN!!! plz tell me because i REALLY want to know and i LOVED!!! your video thankyou. plz make a video on how to make a potato gun and send it to me!!! thankyou

@SENTRY000 Actually copper is a better conductor than gold.  The reason gold is used on contact points, is because of it's corrosion properties. When gold oxidizes it'd byproduct is only fractionally less conductive than it's origin. Not the case when copper oxidizes. Copper oxide is orders of magnitude less conductive than it's origin state. So a gold contact maintain resistance more consistently. However copper is the better conductor

What is "Aluminium?" Is that anything like aluminum? 

[sonycoldplay]

@tbed63

IT IS AN METAL AND IT IS KNOWN FOR ITS CONDUCTING QUALITIES.

[ArtistryofDebauchery]

@tbed63 it's the same metal dude, British people add the extra "I"

[MonoMilitiaMusic]

@tbed63 Yes, as in aluminum cans and aluminum foil. He is English and says words with a different accent. "Al um in ee um" is only one example of their different pronunciations

[busybuzzbuzz]

what does he mean "one side off the machine" and "the other side of the machine"?

[MonoMilitiaMusic]

@busybuzzbuzz it is a placeholder instead of drawing another confusing circuit. as in a guitar amp has a DC power supply and an on off switch, but it also has a lot of complex wiring that would just confuse people learning basic circuts

If you are just starting out in the electrical field videos like this would be a good place to start. Be sure to learn about Ohms Law, Current Flow, Resistance, Voltage, Watts, and other stuff. Without it you will get NO PLACE. You might know how to wire a circuit but if you know nothing about Electrical Law HOW CAN YOU KNOW THE CIRCUIT CAN SAFELY CARRY THE CURRENT WITHOUT BURNING UP? If you know nothing about proper grounding DON'T EXPECT YOUR WORK TO BE SAFE.

how does metals conduct electricity???



[sonycoldplay]

@Lightestin

Metal conduct electricity because any substance that requires to conduct electricity needs movable electric

charges . As we know metal contains electron which are movable electric charges so they are able to conduct electricity.

[TheJarBear808]

thanks 4 the info.

[absolutleybrian]

Now that he cleared that up, how does an Ac Power Supply work?

[RaeRae914]

thank u

[MikeyLuvsU4Lyf]

doesn't a machine use electricity, not energy?

[kokoriconz]

@MikeyLuvsU4Lyf

Electricity is a type of energy.....

[BaltoMovie]

@MikeyLuvsU4Lyf electricity IS a form of energy

what did you think electricity was? it one of the rawest forms of energy

[domyaska]

excellent !! thank youuuu

[walkwalkslow]

A solid explanation of something that we all should know!

[dan020350]

I think I see :)

[najames1]

isnt their suppost to be a resistor or else the circuit will short out?

[jonyadegari]

cool

[samisazerahga]

tinks man love for teaching me

[spispider]

Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
