Trapshooter117 Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 OK i have been given the task of building a launcher with a 1 farad capacitor the launcher will launch a .25 inch by .5 inch steel rod. now i wonder if i made a barrel and in the ignition chamber of the launcher i filled it with a couple of ml of pure H and ran the electrodes into the water all in this sealed chamber. would the capacitor have enough power to split the water and then ignite it to launch the rod? or would i be better off with using the electrodes connected to just make heat to boil the water and launch the rod any input would be much appreciated thank you in advance for your help.
