Title: Here's the Deal
Post by: Knight Templar on September 26, 2002, 09:49:46 pm
For biology, i have what my teacher kindly calls "the year long project"

bassically its a no limits study of something of our choice as long as it follows a few guidelines, and so forth (i.e.  i must answer 5 specific questions about my topic.) I'm going to need to start soon, at least know what i am going to do and right my  proposal to him for the project in the next week or two.

So i was wondering if you had any ideas. bassically anytihng you can think of that is appropriate. More intresting things would be nice. Feedback is A-1 supar. oh yes one more thing, i need to have a "mentor" (an adult who knows what they are talking about on the subject i choose. ) so it needs to be realistic along that axis too.

Human Reproduction and the pheromones related to it.

The effects of narcotics (or alcohol, whichever is easier) on the human sensory system.

The effects of masturbation on intelligence..... err... realistic? not my forte :p

Does it have to be related to biology? I had to do something like this in chemistry class but it was spread out over two years and could be related to any field of science.

biology yes, so having to realte to anything remotely biological, includes physchological i beleive.

Go on, do a topic about FreeSpace. You know you want to.

Eh? What's that? Biology? Meh...

*bump*

"More fire power colloussus, we're almost there!"

well if i don't do it about narcotics.. i could always do something on HLP.

Like "How do different people who have never physically known each other, act as a community"

Objectively, would this be plausible to science teachers. do ya think?

Hmm... How's your access to magnetron capacitators out where you live? Need a license or a microwave serial number in your state? Can you afford a box of fifty?;)

Well, I could sorta be tied in with biology. More of an evil plot, but death rays are kinda a catch-all.

The effects of low-frequency electro-magnetic radiation on living tissue. Basically your end of year presentation thingy could be cooking the class a big-ass serloin steak. And also, you'd get to death-ray cats.

Yeah, just watch out for those metal desks. Those scorch marks may not LOOK too bad, but the whole feedback thing screws up a microwave array faster than anything else.

Also, electro-magnetic = EM induction = Big-ass electricity sparks when aimed at metal = Instant manslaughter charge. Although you could always turn it on the cops when they showed up to Rodney King yer ass.

Try http://surf.to/theforum for plans for a death-ray. I seem to remember someone making one a while back.

"An electrified conductive fluid is ejected from a gun at high velocity, making contact with stationary or moving targets. The single stream of fluid delivers a high-voltage pulse capable of delivering a shock even through thick protective clothing."

"The wireless stun gun delivers a high-pressure saline solution with additives to minimize the breakup of the beam into droplets, thereby maximizing range. Ranges of up to 20 feet have been demonstrated, while ranges of up to 100 feet or more are believed to be feasible with improved nozzles and fluids."

"A high-voltage electrical signal with low current is generated in a compact electronic package with 9-volt batteries. The impedance of the water stream is sufficiently low that it cannot be relied on to limit current to sure-safe levels; consequently current-limiting resistors are used to limit currents to sure-safe levels. A single stream is used to deliver the current. The return path from the target is through the capacitive impedance between the gun and the target."

hmm this could work, but i would most assuredly be expelled for brining any of these to even just biology class, much less trying to make them or brirnign them to school. Perhaps for something to try over christmas vacation.. :devil:

Bleh. Electrical weapons are unreliable. I tried making a lightning generator a while ago- really inefficient and way too dangerous. You'll hurt yourself more than anyone else. AND they're useless near metal surfaces. Stick with the microwave array cannon.
