101 ways of using a microwave oven:
#01 : Creating lighting arcs with 2 simple steps..
step 1: Place a metallic object with sharp corners into the microwave oven.
step 2: Close the oven, turn on the heat and stay clear.
Explanation: The high frequency of the microwaves provides an alternating electric field that changes it's direction billions of time per second, not only causing the internal energy of the metallic atoms ( which has a partial charge due to the delocalisation of the electron cloud around the atom... something to do with the Uncertainty Principle ) to increase due to the vibrations induced, and causing the sea of electrons to go berserk. Sharp corners in the object allows the accumulation of charges to the extent that air is no longer able to insulate, and thus the electron will be pull across the air towards the wall of the microwave oven, causing a mini lighting arc
CAUTION : Either get a very good stain remover to scrub the burnt mark, or prepare the money to buy a new microwave oven..
decided to stop playing bball for a while... until i think my knee gets better.. hopefully it'll juz take a few days.. meanwhile think i'll kill my time with more of this lame entries ..
hahaha =)
