Hi everyone, i'm a mechanical engineer student from italy!
my physics professor during one of his lectures gave us the exact same demonstration about the different distribution of charges on smaller radius corners that walter lewin gave in the first 4 minutes of his online lecture "8.02x - lect 6 - high-voltage breakdown, lightning, sparks, st-elmo's fire" (you can find it on yt. he eventually told us at the end of the lecture, that the demonstration is fundamentally incorrect, and that there is a profound conceptual assumption (no wrong calculus) we made that is profoundly false.. but he then said that, despite that wrong assumption, that model works pretty well at explaining why that happens.
he then gave us the task to find the wrong assumption we (and you) what would you say about that?

Engineers find a new metal that is stronger than steel but much lighter. this material is also significantly cheaper than what is currently used for most aircraft, available in large quantities, and easy to manufacture. the engineers are excited because this new material will lower the costs of buying and operating airplanes for companies. what is probably the best step for the engineers to make next?
