I want to electrocute water and test its conductivity at different temperatures. What equipment would I need to measure the voltage? Is this project feasible? Is there a container that could contain the electricity safely?
They gave you only one day to make this??
For a good permanent repair, you need to solder in a coupling. Cut out the section with the hole in it on the damaged pipe. Cut close on both sides of the hole to minimize the amount of pipe being cut out. Grab some sand paper and clean both tips on both halves of the pipe. Also clean the inside of the coupling. Apply flux to all the sanded areas that will be joined. Slip the coupling onto both halves of the pipe, and apply heat from a propane torch to the fitting. Once it gets hot enough, apply solder to the seam on both sides of the coupling. The solder will be drawn into the fitting creating a permanent seal. This is easiest if you have play in the pipe and can easily move it. It may be anchored down. If so, remove the anchors to give yourself play to join the pipes together. Remember, you're making the pipe slightly shorter since your are cutting out a small piece. That's why you need to cut close to the hole.
