    if thats the sound of the bubble collapsing can you imagine a whole human disappearing and reappearing somewhere else. As in teleportation. It would leave such a big bubble that the sound of it collapsing would probably be defining. So if teleportation would ever be a thing people would have to deteriorate at a speed slower than sound and give it enough time for the air to slowly close around you. Crazy facts. I love them.

      That is ridiculous, if you did this at human scale it wouldn’t move you, it would just make your eardrums instantly explode and maybe even damage your organs from overpressure and then vacuum. The bubble is just vacuum, that would mess you up bad but your body wouldn’t necessarily move.

    speed of sound is nothing important to the crack of a whip, if anything, just a coincidence.
    The reason I say this is because the sonic boom generated by a mach jet is due to the engine sound waves catching up, building up, whereas a whips feather makes no noise as it moves. It is the collapsing atmosphere around the cavitation vacuum that makes a huge bang

    • @cussyutube
      @cussyutube Рік тому

      The noise demonstrated as he whirls the whip is due to wind resistance generated by the thick part of the whip, not the feather. Point is that a feather does not produce sound to get to high speed. This is not a sonic boom, it is a brief hole in the atmosphere which is quickly fixed by the weight of the surrounding atmosphere reclaiming that vaccuum...nature abhorres a vaccuum.

  • @robbygregg4391
    @robbygregg4391 5 років тому +2

    you forgot to mention the effect of the decreasing diameter of the whip from the handle to the end. The decreasing diameter makes the (cumulative) mass distribution along the whip length from start to end to be non-linear, which, combined with the conservation of energy, further contributes to the speed of the tip. I believe even the varying stiffness of the whip from handle to end also contributes to this. But this is just my $0.02 ...

    • @azgarogly
      @azgarogly 5 років тому

      I am pretty sure the decreasing of the diameter (and mass per length) is a most important factor here.

      @dragoncurveenthusiast 5 років тому +1

      Judging from my experiences: no.
      if two people are in a pool and one says something while making a wave, the sound will have arrived long before the wave.
      I think one is a longitudinal wave (sound), the other a transverse wave (water ripple). Moreover, the amplitudes are on a completely different scale.

    • @johnpetersen5341
      @johnpetersen5341 5 років тому

      The speed of sound in water is much faster than in air, more than four times as fast! The denser the medium, the higher the speed of sound. Basically, it's based on the time it takes for each particle to travel to the next one it interacts with. (The interaction itself is very short, in time and distance, compared to the transit.)

      I did too, and I'm having trouble finding anything on cavitation bubbles in air. Every search result is about the bubble containing air and not the medium itself. Subtract 'pump' and 'water' and you start seeing diesel, gelatin, etc.

    • @azgarogly
      @azgarogly 5 років тому

      Well, "cavitation" itself is an event where the bubble is produced by an object moving so fast the medium won't have time to fill the volume it displaced. (sound wave can be that virtual object also). Then the medium moves in, the bubble collapses and the inertia of the matter coming in makes a pressure jump high in the volume. Creating a shock wave. Which usually produces secondary effect which makes us notice the cavitation. Like damaging pipelines or screw blades or layer of dirt on top of nuts and bolts in ultrasound cleaning bath.
