The Moon

[GUNWOUNDS]

Eh... You can find oxygen in water (not that from H₂O) How else do you think sea life can live? They don't break apart water molecules, but they filter out the oxygen of the water, like we filter out oxygen from the air. The reason why we can't breath underwater is because our lungs aren't designed for it.

i know this timenn .. lol...

[Timenn]

Ok, good that we agree with that then... ;)

[drahgoon]

Q/ Is the Moon moving away from the Earth?

A/ yes about 3.8 centimeters per year.

holy shit! the moon is moving away ???

[fremfedeliteNIAC]

holy shit! the moon is moving away ???

Quickly go get it back dhragoon, before its too late! its getting away!

[TMA_1]

the moon is moving away from earth slowly, but it will eventually be really really far away, that will take awhile though.lol

People are not sure if the moon is hollow or not. Many have said it might be because it is relatively "light" for a body of that size.

What is fairly certain though is that the core is inactive, so it is really just one big lump of rock in a sense.

no the moon wont be invisible by that time, though that time probably wont come.lol It has a pretty high albido so it would look like a bright star probably.

Also sadly to say gunwoudns is right, there is a little air in the airtight cartridge. No the igniting of the gunpowder would not take the air from water molecules, as chemcial reactions dont work that way. the heat would just cause water vapor, but would probably not split enough water molecules to make enough oxygen to fuel the fire. It would use the oxygen already in the cartridge.

although if you add a car battery, andd you take it under water, you can create O² and H bubbles, and by that you can evenm light a fire under water... bet you didn't know that.

what are you smoking? .. i want some

My guess is he means that when the battery gets water into it and you take it out of the water it can catch fire.

If the battery pack floods during the dive, the battery could overheat later while above water and catch fire.

There have been three cases of the battery catching fire up to several days after flooding.

oh i see so draghoon just has his wires crossed and didnt understand what he read.

Hehe... wires crossed. good one  :D

[nemafakei]

You do know that in the absence of ions, if you try to electrolyse some water, you will in fact separate the water into Hydrogen and Oxygen. Put a droplet of water on a plate, take two wires from a 9V battery (or higher, but I know 9v works), and touch the droplet from both ends with the two wires. The droplet then bubbles.

Theoretically, if you can get the bubbles big enough to fit a match and some rough paper inside, you could light a match inside one. There's not much point, though.

[shygirl4]

I know its not the Moon, but I just read this and thourt it was quite interesting ill quote "you can fit Earth inside the planet Saturn 764 times, but if you could plunge Saturn in to water it would float.

Shy  ::)

p.s.guess we will never know for sure though  :)

[Dante]

Well Saturn is mostly gas so it would float above the water... But it's kind of silly since Saturn's gravity is so great that the water would just be sucked up into it...

One theory is than all of the gaseous planets have a liquid core, since the gases there are under so much pressure.

[TMA_1]

well there is so much pressure in the core of those planets that it is pretty probable that the matter enter into exotic states, like plasma, and even a super-metalic state. It is weird to imagine metalic hydrogen.lol

[Dunenewt]

I think they are super-metallic at the core, Saturn and Jupiter that is.

[drahgoon]

??? what is super-metallic???

[fremfedeliteNIAC]

Probly somthing with really really metal properties, ie. the opposite to a metalloid (a few elements away from the line that separates the metals from non-metals on the periodic table)

Somthing like Iron, as a guess.

[drahgoon]

i still dont get it...

[exatreide]

liquid iron,silver,steal,gold,copper,dimonds, and other heavy elements... if i remmeber right. They have thought for awhile that Jupiter might have a solid dimond core.

[drahgoon]

oh now i get it... i think...

[Dunenewt]

No Jupiter has a metallic hydrogen core I think...has anyone seen the film The Core?

Is it loosely based on fact?

[fremfedeliteNIAC]

Yeah I think your right Dunenewt, I think somthing funky happens to hydrogen when under high pressure, like when in the center of a big fat planet

Also Tony steel isnt an element... also diamond is carbon(which isnt really a heavy element, nor is it a metal but it does show metallic properties when in the graphite structure(not diamond), ie it conducts electricity)... and how does making iron liquid make it heavier lol, as i mentioned iron before. Unless by that you mean that the quarks in each of the irons hadrons have more energy, being that its hotter, and so the higher energy particles would therefore have a higher density, cause mass is energy. but this would only change the density by a very, *very* small level. Not that you meant that in the first place  :P

[Dante]

Liquid iron isn't really different in mass from solid iron. The difference is that the liquid iron at the core of a planet (such as Earth is supposed to have) would also be under intense pressure. So the same volume (eg, a cubic metre) of liquid iron at the core would in fact contain more iron than ordinary solid iron (or ordinary liquid iron) because it would have more iron in the same space.

Actually so long as the liquid iron is hotter than the solid iron it will be denser, whether or not its under pressure.

The mass of a particle can be defined by the amount of energy it has and vice versa (ever heard of E=mc^2? E is energy and m is mass (c is the speed of light)). Notice that the energy given out by somthing that isnt very massive is huge (hence the atomic bomb). So by giving enough heat to iron so that it changes to a liquid also gives it density, but the amount of energy given to it is obviously not as much as the energy given out in an atomic bomb explotion, so  it only increases the density of the iron by a fraction of a gazzilionth of a gram (I cant be arsed to figrue it out). You can also from matter from pure energy as well, which is in effect a nuke or the sun going in reverse (btw if there was complete annihilation of the nucleons in an atomic bomb or the sun the energy release would be *insanly* more). in physics a long while ago we found out that half a gram of matter when it annihilates completely is easily enough to send a super tanker, fully laden with oil, into orbit (an orbit of like a thousand years or somthing)

Anyway my point is that simply eneergy is matter and matter is energy, there is not much difference, you heat somthing and it will get denser, if you annihilate somthing with its anti-matter equivilent then you get energy.
