Odd question

[temcgrew]

I once pondered for hours whether my CD-ROM weighed more when it was full too. We should form a geek club.

I nominate you for president!!

I will not seek nor will I accept a nomination for president. The fact that you even responded to may comment though shows a real interest on your part. Maybe we have a winner.

Someone asked me if we take into the account the weight of air in the plane- as in a highly pressurized scenario. Obviously we don't, but do you think there actually is even a small increase in weight if the air inside is denser than out? I would think there would be some, as in a full tank of gas like LP weighs more than an empty.

Thoughts?

Please, for our safety... Step away from the bong...

So if I fart do I weigh more than before the fart?

Gup

We should come up with a list of all these ridiculous aviation related questions. Then when we are non-reving in regular clothes, we can sit next to some poor soul who is commuting to work in uniform and ask him for the answers.

Check!

You all need to get laid.

Yep, just checked that one off-

-BTW-your Mom is a dirty, dirty girl, but damn, she be hot!

I doubt the weight of the press. air significant enough to even amount to anything even approaching that of a dead rat under the floor.

Here's an even more odd one...... How much does the internet weigh? Not the equipment to transmit stuff, but the weight of all the electrons which collectively make it up.

-Hint-
There really is an answer-it is surprising.

OK-I am a nerd-but this was pretty neat!

Okay you homo, I now feel dirty in a geeky sort of way after having read that whole stupid article. There’s 10 minutes of my life I’ll never get back.

For everyone else, the same as a grain of sand.

HA HA!

Incorrect-it is a particular type of grain of sand.... You must read it again! Not all grains are the same size.....

-P.S.- I now have that ten mins that you can never get back! I also have a pic of your Mom's butterfly tatt! Soon I will have your eternal soul.....
I truly am an evil bastard!

Autopilot in the aircraft, reading in flight banned by the company, what’s left to do hour after interminable hour en route other than ponder the imponderables.

As the real Hank Hill (not Kid C) would love to explain, the Lady Propane (C3H8) weighs .00183kg/L in her gaseous state and .5077kg/L in her liquid (LP) state. You would have to compress the crap out air to make it a liquid.

I guess i'm bored to, just not enough to search for "weight of the internet"......Putting that in to the equation, should we figure the moving electrons when calculating the C.G.?[/quote]

Of course that would only apply to the DC circuits...in AC circuits the electrons are not going anywhere, just back and forth.

Sorry, I just could not resist.
