September 29, 2024Tomorrow on September 30, 2024, Britains last coal running powerplant shuts down for good. Its closure will mark the end of Britain’s 142-year reliance on the fossil fuel, and make Britain the first G7 country to phase out coal power.

could_use_a_snack on September 29, 2024 7:18 pm Tungsten is so weirdly heavy. If you ever get to interact with some you’ll know what I mean.

matavelhos on September 29, 2024 7:36 pm So, 1kg of magnesium is heavy than 1kg of tungsten!! It’s a joke, ok!?

Incredible
Plus a little bit of potassium
This is why they used magnesium for wheels.

And that is equivalent to how many bananas?
v. a pound of bananas . . .
“Get tungsten cubed, idiot!”
But is it heavier than 1kg of feathers?

Tungsten literally means heavy (tung) rock (sten)

Can we get 1kg of banana?
This is why all recipes should be measured in grams!
Perfect example of mass versus weight
In norwegian:
Tung = Heavy
Sten = Rock
1kg of bananas for scale ??
