    In this video I show you on odd phenomenon in which a paper balloon inflates itself when it seems it should be deflating. How does the Japanese paper ball, the Kamifusen, work? How does it inflate itself?

  • @KalijahAnderson
    @KalijahAnderson 5 років тому +8

    If that was the whole story then quick little hits on the table would inflate it.
    When the ball is moving through the air the air outside is moving faster (from the balls frame of reference) than the air inside. Bernoulli's principle states that fast moving air has lower pressure. While the difference is rather small it's just enough to overcome the weak structure of the tissue paper resulting in air being pulled in through the hole during the entire time it's floating around in the air. The quick taps in the air are also fighting the airs viscosity more as it tries to force it it out the small hole thus reducing the air loss even further. If you have a far enough drop you would inflate the ball just from dropping it. I've done this myself as part of a physics demonstration in school as we tackled this little "paradox" in physics class.

    • @pumpkinhill4570
      @pumpkinhill4570 2 роки тому

  • @Audio_Simon
    @Audio_Simon 5 років тому +3

    I think Helmholtz resonance helps this principle. The hole will create a reasonably high frequency fundamentals resonance. Above resonance (steep impulse attack response of a hit) air flow will be attenuated, however as the paper regains its shape slowly the air draw will be below resonance and can flow unrestricted.
    Just my hypothesis

    Yes, only so much air can flow through the hole. There is a max flow. So even though the hot pressure was harder the bounce, or recoil pressure was longer sucking in more air than on the hit pressure expelled.

  • @Snakebite420
    @Snakebite420 5 років тому +2

    The hole will also collect air, the initial hit may push some air out, but the mass is so light it starts to move, cupping up air through the hole as it travels around, more so than the amount that came out on the subsequent hits.
    Just my initial guess while watching.
    Edit: subsequent

  • @wallstreetoneil
    @wallstreetoneil 5 років тому

    You didn't mention the 2nd'ary effect that a faster moving fluid creates less lateral pressure. So as the ball, with an open hole, is flying through the air, the air outside the ball is moving by the hole creating a lower pressure zone, which further 'sucks out the air' - like opening the window in your car at highway speed. So this longer low pressure interval is also fighting that effect as well.

Yes I know there are valves in there but they can't work on their own without pulses of pressure however brief they are.

    Every time you hit it and air leaves, the hole in the balloon temporarily expands a tiny bit which allows for more air to flood in and block the air from escaping, is what I believe.

    I'm surprised you didn't mention that it also has to do with the shape. It's going to want to take the ball shape because of the compound curves that pieces of paper take. When you cut the ball open, you still didn't break those compound curves. You should have made many slits, so it could lay flat, and then wadded it up. I bet it wouldn't come open near as much.

    Hey action lab, you should put a gyroscope in a vacuum chamber and see if the axis changes after an hour of spinning because the earth is spinning

    My ball does it by mistake how.
    There is a very small hole made by tearing it (rubber ball) and it does same thing like this ball even if it turn into a flat ball then also after some it get inflated again and in this video i got to know how this happens.
