this is like a 1950s porno

This is really good, well explained science but the old-timey sexism is laughable. I don't know if this suitable for schools.

How come poor Betty didn't get any PPE? And how come they didn't take a torch to magnesium powder?

[nannytenerife]

awsome video, love the girls with common garage tools in their hands and dressed with everyday clothes.

[NamesROverated]

By garage you mean kitchen, and by tools you mean stove.

Thanks for posting this! Why don't we use magnesium shells as heatsinks in laptops? According to this video, the only way they will catch fire is if the entire magnesium shell is heated.

POST MORE!

Magnesium is actually used in some laptops, but it's pretty heavy. Other metals are lighter and conduct heat better.

[Venling]

I'm pretty sure magnesium is 1/3 lighter than aluminum.

[ARVash]

not enough volume available for heat dispersion.

In a F1 crash, in 1970, the car had chassis built iwith magnsesiun, and the car got fire after crash, and magnesiun also ignited. The heaatd was so much that a tree near the car burnet without contact.
