What would cause power lines to send out a shower of sparks then break in half? Happened outside my house this morning. No car accident. No bad weather. No branch falling on them.

Then, the power went out in our house (and, apparently, in the whole neighborhood). When I went outside, the two upper wires strung between the utility poles were dangling down, broken in the middle. The other wires on the utility pole were just fine. The poles were standing up straight. No other damage anywhere that I could see. Power surge? Weakened wire (on both wires at the same point)? Crazy squirrel stunt gone bad?

Like measure the amount of time it takes to run it down or something and have the meter recognize that... I dunno. Help!

What type of power boat is required to cross the Atlantic of the Pacific? I know you can sail across the Atlantic or Pacific in a 30-40foot sailboat and many people have done it in much smaller craft. My Question is: How about a power boat?

What's the difference between torque and power? Generally, I've had answers along the lines of "Torque is the 'turning power' of the engine", but what does that mean? Why isn't the max 'turning power' of the engine at the point of max power? If a given engine delivers max torque at say 3500 revs and max power at say 7000 revs, where would I want to keep the revs to get maximum acceleration? Why?

Where online can I buy a solar power panel that can charge up a simple car battery to full charge? I am building a sun-power generator for a remote encampment/retreat!

How are different AC generators linked in a power grid? I've often wondered this. When you have two or more AC generators (say two different power plants) produce power, it seems like it would be impossible to be sure the two are in phase with each other.
