Honest men make mistakes sometimes.Priests never make mistakes. They speak with absolute certainty about things you will never know to be wrong.
But the opposite should be called conmen.
It's not an equilibrium when the energy transfer into the system is larger than the energy transfer out from the system.Except for the case of "dynamic equilibrium". A small volume of material can be heated almost uniformly by ionising radiation or microwaves, and even in the common (and remarkably complicated) case of an egg in boiling water we can define the temperature any depth and any point in time, which is why we use roasting thermometers and variable-temperature ovens to determine the final state of food.
The article I quoted disagrees.Then it was clearly written by someone who knows nothing of electrodynamics, or is unable to evaluate his own equations
Imagine someone in early 20th century complained about the inadequacy of gas stations with his new car, so he wanted to go back with horse cart.The first practical passenger cars were electric but it quickly transpired that buying a gallon of gasoline (then a waste product of the oil industry) from a pharmacy was a lot quicker and easier than charging a battery from the nonexistent mains supply. And the same applies today.
Consider also the potential for the future, like wireless charging in Tesla's Cyber cab. You can't use it with gasoline or hydrogen.You don't need to since it only takes a couple of minutes to fill up from a 40 - 100 MW pump.
Where do they park?In the street. Or hadn't you noticed?
Is 1 mm/s realistic for you?See reply #451 above.
It uses conventional current, as if we didn't know about electron yet.All classical electrodynamics uses conventional current. Some conductors use hole mobility, so the classic sign convention just gives us consistent models. And in my book 0.1 mm/s is a good as stationary compared with c.
You found a method where the temperature difference between ingoing and outbound was essentially constant.Actually not the case. We delivered electrical energy or ionising radiation into a multi-layer graphite/vacuum calorimeter and measured the time it took for the sensing thermistor in the middle to change by 1 milliohm. The clever bit was designing a bridge that reproducibly offset by 0.001 ohm to +/- 0.1%.
You can charge in your own garageMost people don't have a garage
at night and drive your car to and from work.if (a) you don't have a life (b) you like sitting in rush-hour traffic jams and (c) your employer has provided a car park.
What would have happened instead if it were hydrogen or gasoline powered car?It wouldn't have taken so long to get there.
There's a standard FM radio with 100 MHz base frequency. Is there any physical constraints that prevent me from increasing the frequency by 1 nanoHertz?No.
