    I have to disagree with you on this one. From the way you describe quantum tunneling, and I do know a thing or two about quantum physics, the matter tunneling through would simply teleport onto the other side of said wall or bad guy as opposed to moving at a constant speed through the space between the two. Along with the fact that quantum physics typically only applies to members of the quantum realm. (rip Mrs Pym)
    I can however pose a different theory. The amount of space both between atoms in molecular structures, as well as within atoms themselves, is massive. There is more empty space in an atom than actual atom parts. The reason that atoms can't move between these spaces, and why we can't walk through walls, is the negative change in electrons; and yes, I do know you touched upon this. The negative charges, while very weak, are like two magnets aimed negative sides at each other. It's hard to touch the two together. However... if you disabled the negative charge, there would be no problem at all moving through a solid object.
    But wait! The negative charges are actually what keep atoms together... and they bond molecules... so... if you disable the charges then the entire structure would basically atomize into nothingness... not fun unless you're a villain from James Bond.
    So here is the possibility. What if instead of fully cutting off the charge, they just have the ability to reduce it? Lower the electron charge constant within themselves to a perfect balance... right between weak enough to phase through, and strong enough to still hold the molecules together?
    Finding this balance would allow the physics of phase shifting to work perfectly.

    • @julekmeister

      How about this: he vibrates very, very fast - every particle in his body occupy many different spaces in a very short time. Wouldn't that somehow increase the wavelength of their probability wave? If so wouldn't that mean that those particles had much greater chance to be on the other side of the wall thanks to quantum tunneling?

    • @LutzHerting
      @LutzHerting 6 років тому +3

      Of course it is. It's even hinted at in the book: The book states that for the drive to work you need to calculate the exact probability that the ship is currently at the point you want to reach and once you switch the drive off, you are there. So in quantum-physics terms you would say that you calculate a non-local wave-function spanning the whole universe and then collapse it towards your target value.

    • @LutzHerting
      @LutzHerting 6 років тому +4

      And as a little bit of trivia: As I heard the story, the improbability drive wasn't in the book at first. But in the scene when Ford and Arthur are thrown out of an airlock, Douglas Adams was stuck. For days he couldn't think of ANY way how to save them from that. At some point - just for fun - he tried to calculate how improbable it would be for them to be rescued - and voila - the heart of gold was born and became one of the most important things in the whole series.

    Another problem with being able to walk through walls is you would also just fall through the floor and ground the moment you attempt to go through a wall since you activated your body to be able to pass through any solid you’d also pass through the ground as well since you can’t really just tell your atoms to only pass through the solid wall but not the solid ground. So in order to successfully be able to just walk through walls you’d also have to have the ability to levitate or fly, so when you turn on the ability to pass through solids you also hover a inch or two off the ground at the same time then move forward.

    Would the hammer keep falling through the floor until it hit the bottom (or the center of the earth)?
    Would it just keep floating in mid air (since no one worthy has moved it?

      Evan Duggan The gaps between atoms? THE GAPS BETWEEN ATOMS? If the whole reason Kitty can phase through walls is because she moves between atoms then anyone could do that by pressing up against a wall and moving a little.
      And about the Vision. What's the point of making it look like you're phasing through walls? He's clearly a smart guy. He probably understands the uselessness of doing that. The only reason he (or any other mental powered individuals) would realistically do that is to make himself appear more powerful, not to invade Scarlet Witch's bedroom.
      The Flash's well known form of phasing is vibration which is why it is explored in the video. I've never heard of him doing what you say he's doing.
      About Flash's clothes. If he's phasing through atoms why wouldn't his clothes come off? He's superpowered not his suit. There's also still space between him and his suit. If he vibrated at those high speeds he would not only get super chafed but his suit would get destroyed.
      Go back to your Legos.

He's running pretty much at the same normal speed as a human. So he must be able to change his mass, or weight, in order to be unstoppable when running at full speed. I can't fully remember so correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Mjölnir used against the Hulk to try and pacify him on that huge floating aircraft carrier in Avengers Assemble? Pretty sure if Mjölnir can lay the smack down on Hulk, it'll take more than just Juggernaut's velocity to be moved.

    "Do you know how fast electrons (which is why 2 solids don't pass through each other in the first place), do you know how fast electrons wiggle? They wiggle fast enough to circle the Earth in 13 seconds. They already twerk this hard and they aren't passing through objects. I'm not passing through other objects. So, what do you think increasing your speed a little bit is gonna do, Barry?"
    Barry can, theoretically, move his electrons faster than that. The idea is that there exists a moment where particles are positioned in such a way that Barry's atoms can fit between (and move through) them. The heat/energy created by his vibrations essentially pushing him forward and disrupting the atomic structure of the object he's moving through. Going through objects is usually a slower process (very rarely does he go through something quickly, and it's kind of luck) in order to "fit" through these gaps.
    As for why clothes doesn't come off - the speed force creates an energy around him that protects him. It's the reason people don't burn up when he carries them out of a burning building, or why he doesn't die from coming to complete stops after running at such high speeds and his brain bounces off of his skull.

    3:40 a better understanding I've developed reading Flash all these years is this: Barry constantly gets into trouble with altering time, jumping in and out of dimensions, phasing into a different reality in general (going to another universe), which is all technically due to vibrations. Theoretically, by string theory, Barry actually CAN shift the vibrations of the strings in his atoms, allowing him to momentarily shift out of phase with the reality he is in, and reappear on the other side of the space at the same frequency of the universe.

    Regarding Cyclops, his sight and glasses - the Marvel Comics Wiki (which contains information that is all OFFICIALLY released) covers how his visor and glasses work.
    Basic gist is: The ruby quartz lenses filter out and block the energy beams (from the pocket dimension hidden behind and access through his eyes) whilst letting him see the world around him safely, just with a red tint to everything. The visor has a panel of the ruby quartz that is angled up (visor open) or down (visor closed) by small motors controlled by touching the ear cups on either side, with springs to provide positive pressure and keep the panel down (fail-safe shutoff if the motors stop working for whatever reason).

    In answer to the Cyclops question, Scott's eye-beams are blasts of force that come through wormholes in his eyes. The glasses contain quartz crystals that act as a filter to only let in certain frequencies of light. The wormholes only open in response to certain frequencies of light, so all the glasses have to do is filter out those frequencies in order to "turn off" Cyclops' powers. In other words, he can see because the glasses only filter out certain colors while allowing others to pass through. So what he sees through them is strangely colored (in the comics it looks kind of yellow or orange) but still plenty clear enough to allow him to go through everyday life.

    If I may offer an explanation as to why Juggernaut can't lift Thor's Hammer:
    Juggernaut isn't the brightest bulb, I think, assuming his powers are graviton based, he wouldn't realize he had such gravitational powers, because it happens so innately for him whenever he's on the move. So yes, he may have gravitation powers, but since he's always used them to, well, be the Juggernaut, he'd never think to apply them in any other fashion, because he doesn't have the frame of mind to even realize that his powers function so.

    • @mordirit8727

    • @keimori6006
      @keimori6006 8 років тому +1

      Thiago Freitas
      True, but I think what Kyle was getting at is that once the "worthiness" detector was activated by Juggernaut's "unworth", as Mjolnir increases it's local gravity to make itself heavier, if Juggernaut could control gravitons, then he could combat Mjolnir but decreasing the gravity around it by an equal amount, thus canceling out both forces and therefore Mjolnir would become a simple hunk of metal on a stick, and thus be lifted and wielded by him.
      That would work; however, I'm arguing that it's not whiten Juggernaut's nature to realize that his powers are gravity based,(if they are) and therefore, he wouldn't think up the aforementioned solution, nor would he have the mental focus to constantly fight Mjolnir in order to bypass its security feature and wield it in battle.

    • @mordirit8727
      @mordirit8727 8 років тому

      Keimori that is still assuming the hammer's threshold of power is smaller than the Juggernaut's, which is unknown. Considering some of the beings that have failed to lift it, it's pretty safe to assume the hammer's potential to alter it's gravitational field is infinite, whereas almost no mutant has "infinite" power. Even if the Juggernaut keeps altering the gravity around it, the hammer could just counter it, right?

    • @keimori6006
      @keimori6006 8 років тому +1

  • @callmev3531
    @callmev3531 6 років тому

    In Visions case, his body act like it’s fully material. He has shown himself to completely ignore momentum and have sudden inertia to be immovable and indestructible. When he’s phasing, like like his body is somehow becoming like an energy or a particle, but since he seems to have such control over the physical forces around his body, he doesn’t fall through the floor, since he also appears to control his own weight. In a way he could also work like Thor’s hammer supposedly does, manipulating particle that control forces.
    As for the Flash, his powers allow him to break the laws of physics through his connection to the extra dimensional Speed Force. In a way he’s not fully a part of this universe when using his powers, but he doesn’t seem to be able to do this all of the time as it might harm him somehow if he keeps disassociating himself with reality. The old Justice League cartoons even showed that Flash could be completely merged into the Speed Force and essentially be lost forever if he used his powers to the extremes.

    Kitty pride (hopefully spelled right) says that she could move her atoms through the spaces between other atoms
    So, what if she could debond every single atom in her body for a moment (in case they dont expand and move around to just vaporise her), so her atoms can pass other atom structures? I dont know if there is enough space inside atom structures to move every atom through it, but she has to be able to control the movement of her atoms, so they dont hit other atoms (its really rare, but its possible)

    The thing that always gets me about mutants, etc. phasing through solid objects is how do they not fall into the ground? While Kitty Pride is running through walls she should also go through the floor. And when she phased Juggernaut into the floor and left him stuck there, shouldn't that have killed him - getting concrete, rebar, etc. merged with the atoms of his body?

    I always just figured kitty pride changed her quarks to, instead of up and down, a 'left and right' charged (non-existent charge type). Ones that had no attraction or repulsion to any other matter except her own. What this would mean? Essentially her body would become neutrinos to the rest of the universe but to her own body (or someone she chooses to phase with) the forces holding the quarks into atoms wouldn't have noticed a single difference.

      Even then, no matter how fast he vibrates his body, it's still impossible for him to phase through stuff. He was giving that example because he's telling you how fast electrons are basically doing what The Flash does, and yet they still don't phase through each other. He wasn't saying The Flash wasn't fast enough.

      @handlefornate 7 років тому +6

      The point is, the Flash is not made of neutrinos- the particle that can pass through matter. Therefore, The Flash cannot pass through matter because he is not made of neutrinos. He is made up of the normal matter that neutrinos go through.
      Neutrinos are particles with a mass close to zero that rarely react to normal matter, the Flash is made of normal matter which has significantly greater mass, and interacts with other normal matter on a regular basis.
      "so technically as neutrinos are passing thru his matter the Flash he would be partly made up of neutrinos" Not how that works. If that was the case he would be traveling at speeds almost exactly the speed of light (speed at which neutrinos move) when he phases.

  • @raymondbrasuell2564
    @raymondbrasuell2564 6 років тому

    You and the CW show used the old explanation for how Flash phases. The new explanation makes a lot more sense, and ties into how he can travel to other dimensions. He changes the vibrational patterns of his stings(strings as in string theory, not thread)so that he's phasing partly out of one reality and into another one without the obstacle he's going through.

      Going 'faster' then light speed would send you back in time, not make you move faster. If you were moving fast enough to effect the electrons in an object you interact with so dramatically, the electrons in your body would be completely destroyed first. This show is about science, bro.
