When eddy current sensors approach carbon steel it's impedance increases unlike Al or Cu. Does this difference vanish at high frequency?

Literatures suggest that unlike non-ferromagnetic materials that lead to a decrease in impedance of the eddy current sensor, ferromagnetic materials lead to an increase in impedance of the coil....

Energy, I believe, existed before TIME (beginning of change). Time is a result of the Second Law of Thermodynamics that was imposed on Energy. Right?

If what I am thinking is right, then Energy should be the fundamental dimension in physics, not Time

I am trying to condense gasoline vapors from air having ratio 1:99. would I have to go in cryogenic temperature range for that?

the available works by SAE talk of upto 1:20 ratio that suggest that about 70% of gasoline present in air in 1:20 ratio would condense at upto 0 degree centigrade
