    The "bouncing bomb" method works better. IE backspin. How you'd launch them like that though I'm not sure. The physics dictated that back spin generates a high pressure under the item in contact with the water. Forward spin in effect pulls it into the water and increases drag by loads. Bernoulli's principle and Barnes Wallis are the two potential starting points.

    @jacobprogramz 2 роки тому

    So your best option to launch a wheel at high speed is something like a straight road. Warning, the rim will probably dig into it though. The harder the surface, the less likely the oscillations will occur that you saw, but you have to worry about friction. If you dig into the road however, you will gain a lot of frictional force, so sometimes having a small surface area for contact can actually help (which is why spikes on tires exist). Basically, you want it to dig into the surface as much as possible without having said surface create a ramp that will launch it into the air

  • @bog2k3
    @bog2k3 2 роки тому

    You can get the wheel to hover over thw water and go much further if you use a slick tire and a really grippy and smooth launch surface. The wheel must be moving forward without slipping (advance at the same rate as it's spinning) when it hits the water, otherwise it'll just dig into the water. Also it needs to have quite some speed

He would take a 20" bicycle wheel, lock up its axel by tightening it all the way, and loosely, but firmly, fit the axel into a grid-powered drill. The wheel would spin up to full RPM, then the axel would slip from the drill's grip, causing the wheel to launch super fast onto his neighbor's property toward their house. He didn't give a shit, and it was hilarious to witness.

  • @jimr7987
    @jimr7987 2 роки тому

    For the tire to skim across the water, it needs to be going 60+ mph or 100+ kph so that it is hydroplaning. So a greater distance over ground is needed for the tire to come up to full speed and all of extra rotational energy converted into horizontal speed. In the video the tire was still spinning faster than it was traveling across the ground and still kicking up a lot of sand before it reached the water. Once in the water, the horizontal speed was to low and the water just wraps around the tire and absorbs all the rotational energy. The best case would be a smooth tire which would skip over the water. As everyone knows, smooth tires are very dangerous for driving at high speed in the rain. Hit a puddle and the whole car loses contact with the ground and can spin out of control.

    Also, it is skipping over the sand (most likely) because of the fact the sand easily displaces, creating small ramps, the tire shoots up and loses traction. Using a different surface, and making sure there is a small gap between the wheel and that surface on release, will probably give you the highest acceleration and end velocity, and the wheel could go further over the water with a greater horizontal velocity

    I bet big ol mud tires would do the trick which is a similar tread to the V tread you did into the one tire. Also I think slicks would be an interesting tire to try this with.

    A bald tire? As in no tread left. And do you need a differential? Could the hub be mounted directly a drive shaft extension?

    Would a plolaris ranger tire help not blow up? It’s a smaller tire with a four lug pattern and already has that diagonal design already in its tread also it would have lighter rim meaning more revs right??

    Put the tire on the rim backwards
    The tread pattern is designed to pull the tire into the water as to avoid hydroplaning
    If you put the tire in backwards, the tread will instead push the tire away from the water and allow it to skip above the water
