That under certain conditions water will boil. Just thought Id share that little tidbit of information with you. ;D
-
And under certain conditions it won't, like when it's under enough pressure (takes a lot, and I am talking non-nuclear sources of heat)
Mike ( my 2 cents)
-
Its fun when its in a vaccuum.
-
I really think helium at 10 degrees Kelvin is more fun (maintaining old parametric amplifiers in the '70s used in satellite communications)...catch a frog at 5 feet and watch him freeze..solid..shatter...we were cruel then..but it was Clark AB, on a mid shift (SATCOM site was out by the POL for those who know..and those that remember the furniture factory burning down...damn, your as old as me)....

:lol: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: We used to do the same thing refilling LOX bottles when i was in the AF. ;D But we used liquid O2 in stead of nitrogen.
Nitrogen was much more fun (and stable ::)) you could freeze old tools and shatter them as well.

Damn, did we get away with alot then....and there was "Yes sir, Cap'n, you bring that plane back, we'll fix it!!!"
:lol: :rofl: :rofl: :lol:

:thumbsup: :goodpost: :lol: :rofl: :rofl: The funny thing is. Now you could NOT, get me to throw anything in LOX ,justfor the fact i know the potential for a huge explosion is so great. Just as i did then.
Guess that shows you what 20 years does to your judgment. ;)
Aaah the blissfull ignorance of youth. :)

..or that under the right conditions water evaporates. ;D
and before anyone else tries

:iamwithstupid:
beat ya to it
-
Also, under the right conditions, water will form a supercritical fluid! ;D
-
And in the right locations water will flow counter-clockwise down a drain.
-
Its also neat when it goes from ice to vapor or vice versa.
-
Ahhh, the triple point of water, where most thermocouples are referenced at.

Sublime, absolutely sublime... ;)
-
Yes yes I know. though if I put "I like sublimation" it probably wouldn't have made sense to that many people.
-
Figured, with the name of Iceman... it is a pretty bad groaner of a pun - one of those forced science geek type ones...
-
Did you know that....
drinking water before bed will prevent a hangover???
AMAZING !!

Will it really?

And placing a hand in warm water after bed will produce urine. ;)

Put frozen water on parts of my body and I get instant headlights.
Hey I can't compeat with the geeky ones so I have to twist it my way!
-
You and my gf would get along well, Alien.
-
...twist it my way!
Snicker.You are SOO naughty.

*SIGH* yeah I know . . . but they do warm up some and don't hurt as much after a little bit! :D
