If you connect thousands of miles of extension cords and then plug, say, a blender into one end, what happens?

ciabatta asked:


Would it take a few minutes for the electricity to reach the blender, so it wouldn’t turn on right away? Or, would there be too much electricity, and the blender would explode? Or would it never reach it? If you plug a TV into it, with only an antenna, would it get the channels from where the TV is plugged in, or where the TV actually is?

What do you think?
