Can you cook only using 75 watts?
 
This is just a question about energy usage. How would you make it work?

AndChiefs 04-06-2013 02:57 PM

Cook? I eat everything raw.

You need the new easy bake oven led edition

Stewie 04-06-2013 02:59 PM

Easy-bake is 100 watts and inefficient.

No, you need a minimum of 1.21 gigawatts to do anything worthwhile.

OP didnt say anything about a meal, you're making up the rules as you go along. :harumph:

Hmmm... didn't know that. Cooking now with 75 watts and it smells delicious.

I'd start a fire. :D

How many watts is a fire?

This was just an exercise for people to understand power vs. cooking food.

I can make the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs.

Isn't parsecs a unit of distance?

Use your car engine.

It is.

From what I understand, the Kessel run is an asteroid laden gauntlet. Han is bragging about being able to weave in between the obstacles, shortening the total distance of the run, rather than taking a wide berth around the field.

Pilsner 04-06-2013 06:03 PM

Upon further investigation, my nerd card needs to be revoked.

Quote:

Han Solo claimed that his Millennium Falcon "made the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs". A parsec was a unit of distance, not time. Solo was not referring directly to his ship's speed when he made this claim. Instead, he was referring to the shorter route he was able to travel by skirting the nearby Maw black hole cluster, thus making the run in under the standard distance. By moving closer to the black holes, Solo managed to cut the distance down to about 11.5 parsecs.
Black holes. Not asteroids.

Dude. It was a joke on Blue Harvest, Family Guy.

HAVE YOU EVER MADE THE KESSEL RUN?

I often shock my servants with less than 75 watts and they cook with urgency. but in fairness is it the low watttage that does that, or is it the threat of higher wattage?

DaFace 04-07-2013 09:31 AM

Probably depends on what you're trying to cook.

Not sure about cooking in a 75-watt range, but I do know you can operate a phased plasma rifle in the 40-watt range.

Fish 04-07-2013 09:47 AM

Yeah, what did you have in mind to cook, and what would you be cooking it in?

Would you have 75W total, or is that just your maximum line wattage? If you could have multiple 75W outputs, that would help a bunch.

A single 75W source could only output up to 256BTU/hr. That's not much. Your average open flame stove burner can output around 30,000BTU. So that should show you how little energy you have to work with.

http://www.rapidtables.com/convert/p...att_to_BTU.htm

You can then convert that BTU rating to the area you're cooking in. You want 75-100 BTU per square inch, to cook most food. So you could successfully heat an area the size of a few square inches with with a single 75W source.

Fair enough. What do you expect? This planet has two suns and no women. I've got some..............anxiety.

There is always a hotdog with a Bic Lighter.

BlackHelicopters 04-07-2013 09:54 AM

YOU can't cook with 75 watts, but Chuck Norris can.

Imon Yourside 04-07-2013 09:57 AM

Sunlight and a magnifying glass should do the trick.
