Short tubes that are 4 feet in length typically have two pronges on each end of the tube. This kind you grab the bulb and rotate it a 1/4 turn and it will come our of it's socket and into your hands freely. Typically 8 ft long tubes only have one prong on each end and one end is spring loaded. By pushing the bulb one direct or the other towards the end directions the sring loaded end will colapse and allow the other end to come free.

If a tube of hydrogen gas is placed above a test tube of air why would the tube of air give a positive test for hydrogen after a few seconds?

the hydrogen would likely begin bonding with the oxygen in the test tube, and become heavier. As this product falls out, it would pull more hydrogen to the end of the tube, putting more hydrogen in contact with the oxygen, much the same way as an oil lamp pulls the oil fumes from the base of the lamp to the flame.

How do you fix a Hose leak from the rear of the motor on a 89 Buick regal?

There is a long steel tube that runs from the heater core to the engine. This tube tends to rust through in which case you should replace it. The tube itself is not that expensive, but it's tricky to replace. You'll need to remove the alternator and the dog bone engine mounts. Rock the engine as far forward as possible and replace the tube. Russtech67

How do you Test Polaroid projector lamp?

I'm assuming that you're talking about a LCD projection TV. Since it's a mercury vapor gas discharge lamp, it can't be tested with any type of continuity tester to see if the filament is burned out. So let me ask you a couple of questions to help you make a determination. 1.) Does the "LAMP" light on the front of the set blink after the set's turned on? (Yes? Replace the lamp.) 2.) Does the TV come on and display a picture for a few minutes and then go out for a few before coming on again? (Yes? Replace the lamp.) 3.) Does the lamp not come on at all, but if you listen carefully, you hear three snapping sounds like high voltage arcing somewhere near the lamp's installation door? (Yes? Replace the lamp.) 4.) Are you able to remove the lamp and look at it? Is it shattered inside? (Yes? replace the lamp.) 5.) Are you able to remove the lamp and look at it? Does it have a rather large bulge at the base of the tube? (Yes? Replace the lamp.) 6.) Can you borrow a a lamp of the same type from a friend that has the same type of TV and it works OK? (Yes? Replace the lamp.) Other reasons for a lamp not coming on: 1.) The lamp door switch isn't properly closed (safety switch) usually from removing the cover and not properly replacing it. 2.) The lamps' ballast unit has gone bad. (Especially if the door switch is properly in place and you don't hear the three clicking noises as it tries to ignite the lamp). There's other possible causes, but in most cases it's either the lamp itself or the ballast.
