I spent the better part of my childhood attempting to make magnetic levitation . and the closest I got was 2 neodymium rings on a pencil. turns out all I needed was a type 2 superconductor and some liquid nitrogen. what I would've given to have this guy as a science teacher as a kid. fascinating stuff man!!! thank you for this, I genuinely feel a small part of me was never going to be satisfied until I could see it happen. p.s. the bread reminded me of superman for some reason and I got a chuckle out of that
This is really showing how cool magnetic fields are, more than how cool superconductors are. The way they all sum together in that circle, and couple into one big field with a smooth shape.
So the shift to using the cool term, 'Quantum', also describes the *Basics of magnets? I'm confused. What is 'Quantum' here? Seems pretty straight forward as far as magnets go.

Wooden boards are mostly just a bunch of tangled complex carbohydrates holding some arbitrary amount of water... It therefore can be argued that, by definition, bread is a form of squishy, man-made wood, and the fact that a slice of bread is a cut section of the greater whole means that a slice of bread could be defined as a board.
I'm guessing the superconductor was re-cooled a few times during this demonstration. That's the downside to superconductors - they need to be kept cold or the superconductivity goes away. IF they could come up with a room temperature superconductor made of inexpensive and commonly found materials, all our lives would become different. Power sources, electronics, communication, transportation and more would all change drastically.

3 роки тому+2
I caught this. And yes, it is all relative. While watching, I was vaguely thinking about how this worked at the much larger scale of the quantum locking demonstrated in the video. That wasn't just a few nanometers. The effect on the whole object was happening at several centimeters, to be sure. I didn't really quite grasp how the electron couplets related to the effect at such distance. Maybe I just didn't get where each electron of the couplet "lived". Surely one is not in the magnet and the other in the superconductor. There is certainly more to be "grokked" here...
@ the two electrons are in the superconductor. The pair thing only happens to get the electrons in a lower quantum state so they require a specific energy to get scattered on bumping into anything(nothing less). Now because the temp is low the atoms don't have that specific energy to scatter so the electron pair keeps moving
Well, for a no quantum background and a high-school physics background I grasped the basic idea of it but honestly the best part of the video is you laughing at the experiment. I was laughing too and this is what's needed in education. A magic show that can actually be explained through the laws of cosmos. Thanks for the video.

Ha! I think about that and wonder if I'd be able to teach history. Seriously. Then the vastness of my ignorance becomes more clear than anything else and I take a nap.
The word "quantum" always makes everything more complicated than it should be. Learning physics: no problem Learning quantum physics: brain overheating
I always feel I skipped a degree or two when I try to learn quantum physics. Its like trying to understand how a place flies when you don't even know what a force is. When you understand something you often "see" its relation to other things you already know; quantum stuff its like the rules from a totally different universe.
@@screab stop it you're giving me flashbacks to these kinds of conversations Me: "But sir, how does this work?" Professor: "because of this" Me: "but... How though?"
Quantum simply means tiny. Quantum physics is the study of how tiny particles like protons, neutrons, and electrons behave and interact. It only sounds complicated.

@@nigerianking5870 umm nope. Exactly the opposite, infact. Black holes, stars, almost the whole universe itself exists the way we know it due to gravity.
You might be able to do it if it got huge momentum, but it would be a/some magnets to pull it, similar to a roller coaster launcher. It would have to get higher in conductivity to have the right pull, I would probably use electromagnets to do it.
We did this in the late 80's in high school. We ordered a kit from a Science supplier. The local news came out and did a story. I guess we were a bit ahead of our time. Our teacher was great.
This guy... 🤯 I have a degree in astrophysics and I swear every other Action Lab video is a completely new phenomenon I've never heard of, and is amazingly, earth-bendingly, world changingly awesome.
"It has to come in discrete packets" is a good definition of "quantum." It is basically how Einstein described it in 1905 in his paper on the photoelectric effect, one of the first papers ever to describe a quantum mechanical system. That's what won him the Nobel Prize, not relativity.
That's kinda bad. General relativity is was a lot more remarkable and revolutionary than the description of photoelectric effect. Not saying photoelectric effect is bad but Einstein is remembered because of relativity in the general public and scientific community. If anyone knows why he wasn't given the Nobel prize for relativity I'd like to know.
@@manan-543 He was kinda pissed about it. Their practice at the time was to award the prize for applied, not theoretical physics. They eventually decided the Photoelectric effect was practical enough, many years after everyone else thought he should have won. He decided not to go to Stockholm and accepted the award at a themepark in Gothenberg instead. A little petty, but kind of funny.
A glove + liquid nitrogen... is not a good idea. A cold puck + glove...is a good idea. Here's a guy dipping his hand into liquid nitrogen. ua-cam.com/video/KRUN2vzVpa8/v-deo.html Small amounts of Liquid nitrogen will roll off your skin harmlessly due to the Leidenfrost effect. But it will stick to clothing more easily (e.g. a glove), freeze it and then the clothing freezes your skin. It's probably safest to be completely naked when dealing with liquid nitrogen😅 (to a point).
I don't know what you did but my cat was absolutely fascinated by this video! He is literally sitting right on front of the TV watching the video. Even your explanation of how it works, and keeps looking back at me like "You got that?" Should I have called him Schrodinger instead of Biscuits?
Fascinating. Going into this I knew about superconductors and their behavior, but didn't understand how they actually worked. No idea how your channel hasn't come up in my feed previously but subscribed after watching this.
There is something to this action. Could you pass electric into it to make it even stronger? How big can you go with this experiment? How far can you get away from the magnets, if it’s even stronger? There’s a lot more questions to this awesome and groundbreaking experiment. How far are we away from using the Earth itself as a magnet? This changes a great many things.
@@Brandonjdwright A lot of professors don't know what they're talking about either so they just bullshit around it. I had this happen quite often in my physics classes.
Liquid nitrogen doesnt seem to be hard to aquire if you browse the internet. I'm pretty sure you can arrive at the facility and ask some in your thermos for a fee. Liquid nitrogen is a common "material"
The science is: Super conductors conduct almost perfectly, with near- or absolute-zero. The superconductivity allows a current to pass through it with no resistance... And ALSO allows the magnetic field of these strong magnets to penetrate them in much the same manner. They neither attract nor repel, but became caught on the magnetic field. It's a very cool phenomenon.
Clarke's three laws From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws. 1. When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong. 2. The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible. 3. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
I just learned a little bit about superconductors last week in my physics II class. It’s amazing how the quantum locking looks like! Thank you very much!
@@lanceeeee1 Actually, it would still be impossible to have a frictionless flow due to the nature of Quantum Locking itself. Not to say that it would violate the laws of thermodynamics.

I wish our school teachers were as enthusiastic as this man is about teaching.
This man is not burdened with baby-sitting (and not failing) uninterested students, keeping up with an externally imposed curriculum that gets new topics added every year without eliminating any old topics, or being evaluated by student performance on multiple choice tests incapable of testing if the students actually understand anything they are being required to parrot.

The word "quantum" always makes everything more complicated than it should be.
Learning physics: no problem
Learning quantum physics: brain overheating
I always feel I skipped a degree or two when I try to learn quantum physics. Its like trying to understand how a place flies when you don't even know what a force is. When you understand something you often "see" its relation to other things you already know; quantum stuff its like the rules from a totally different universe.
Superconducting brains will allow us to avoid the overheating because there will be no resistance.

Imagine giving this thing a track, with ramps, jumps, and other stuff...
Or as someone else said, make it go vertical....
Superconductors can't really go off the neodymium tracks, so you would have to make it go extremely fast
You're talking hotwheels man..
U cant actually jump, cuz it is locked...
You might be able to do it if it got huge momentum, but it would be a/some magnets to pull it, similar to a roller coaster launcher. It would have to get higher in conductivity to have the right pull, I would probably use electromagnets to do it.
We did this in the late 80's in high school. We ordered a kit from a Science supplier. The local news came out and did a story. I guess we were a bit ahead of our time. Our teacher was great.

"It has to come in discrete packets" is a good definition of "quantum." It is basically how Einstein described it in 1905 in his paper on the photoelectric effect, one of the first papers ever to describe a quantum mechanical system.
That's what won him the Nobel Prize, not relativity.
Quantum is similar in meaning to quantity, as in order for something to be quantifiable it has to be in separate bits.
I say big words I am smort yes?
@@quacktheduck3652 lol that's not even big words. It's pretty basic and far from complex physics terminology.
That's kinda bad. General relativity is was a lot more remarkable and revolutionary than the description of photoelectric effect. Not saying photoelectric effect is bad but Einstein is remembered because of relativity in the general public and scientific community. If anyone knows why he wasn't given the Nobel prize for relativity I'd like to know.
@@manan-543 He was kinda pissed about it. Their practice at the time was to award the prize for applied, not theoretical physics. They eventually decided the Photoelectric effect was practical enough, many years after everyone else thought he should have won.
He decided not to go to Stockholm and accepted the award at a themepark in Gothenberg instead. A little petty, but kind of funny.

3:50: Finally elects to wear a glove while dealing with liquid nitrogen
Yeah, I wondered about that.
A glove + liquid nitrogen... is not a good idea.
A cold puck + glove...is a good idea.
Here's a guy dipping his hand into liquid nitrogen. ua-cam.com/video/KRUN2vzVpa8/v-deo.html
Small amounts of Liquid nitrogen will roll off your skin harmlessly due to the Leidenfrost effect.
But it will stick to clothing more easily (e.g. a glove), freeze it and then the clothing freezes your skin.
It's probably safest to be completely naked when dealing with liquid nitrogen😅 (to a point).

There is something to this action. Could you pass electric into it to make it even stronger? How big can you go with this experiment? How far can you get away from the magnets, if it’s even stronger? There’s a lot more questions to this awesome and groundbreaking experiment. How far are we away from using the Earth itself as a magnet? This changes a great many things.
This principle is used in modern high-speed trains, and it's highly effective. They can safely exceed 300mph, about 2/3 the speed of a plane.

Does this look like magic to you? It's actually science.
Let me explain the science: It's magic.
The science is: Super conductors conduct almost perfectly, with near- or absolute-zero.
The superconductivity allows a current to pass through it with no resistance... And ALSO allows the magnetic field of these strong magnets to penetrate them in much the same manner.
They neither attract nor repel, but became caught on the magnetic field.
It's a very cool phenomenon.
@@thereprehensible435 Ha! "Cool" phenomenon.
Clarke's three laws
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws.
1. When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.
2. The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible.
3. Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
