    4:17 Actually, you *can* discover what the mixture of gasses is. You just need to get a spectrophotometer and to look at the graph. Because each gas emits a different wavelength of light, you'll be able to tell what the mixture of gasses is to an extent. I'm fairly sure that Brainiac75 did an experiment similar to this

      A simple collimator and prism will do for many gases. Their main emission lines usually are clear, intense and easily distinguished with the help of spectra available easily on the internet.

      No. issue is that Ar, Kr, Xe are all much heavier gases which don't get as excited as lighter gases which causes them to emit light. The ions on the lighter gases are traveling much faster since it requires much less force to accelerate them compared to heavier gases. He driving all of the tubes from the same power supply. Perhaps if he used two power supplies with the second driving the heavier gases at much higher voltages they could be brighter.

      Nah, the beauty of Fahrenheit is that it annoys metric snobs to no end! :)
      The reason why the US still uses it because our industrial base was never destroyed during all those european wars. Europe was able to retool all its factories when they had to replace them. The US largely continue to use old factory equipment that was built prewar or during the war. Plus the US was very busy producing the goods Europe & Asia needed after the war to rebuild.No body wants to spend the billions to convert over to metric. However if Europe is willing to pay the costs to retool everything over to metric America will be glad to switch over. Deal?
      Using your logic, How come every European & Asian nation hasn't adopted English as the official language? it would make everything a lot easier right? Should the French, Spanish, Germans, Italians all abandon their native languages and just teach & speak English?

Then I licked it and the sparks jumped to the tip of my tongue! I got so scared of getting cancer or so, so I put it away.
    I've also opened it apart and there was a green lamp that had no electrical wires on it but it gave light when the lamp was on, and back then I just couldn't understand it.

      No. ICE engine efficiency is depended on compression, temperature difference, and friction. Diesel engines operate near 50% efficient do to the much higher compression. There are limits for compression ratio with gasoline because it will self-ignite at high pressures, far below the pressures that diesel will self-ignite.

      two ways:
      1. TIG torch probably the simplest method which can get up to about 11,000F\6000C. You need use a argon shield gas to avoid oxidiation
      2. Tube furnace as long as your alloy melting temp is below the melting point of the heating element (NiCr). 3200F/1800C
