      I think people tend to use words inaccurately without thinking about exactly what they are saying.

Tried fingers, tweezers, and a number of other things, but they just started going farther up his nose. Looking back, now that he's safe, watching his egotistical impressiveness devolve slowly into anxious panic was actual morbidly hilarious.

Even if it did work forever, it wouldn’t generate infinite energy. It would only just perfectly store the energy it uses to keep moving. That could maybe have some practical use as a long-term battery. Idk, I’m not a physicist.

Good luck making a vacuum with exactly 0 particles in it, but even if you did, it would lose energy other ways e.g. gravitational waves (suuuuper slowly but still at a non-zero rate). There are things that do continue moving without losing energy: superfluids. Just like how in superconductors, the electrons can move without resistance, superfluids flow without resistance. If you cool, for example, liquid helium below its "lambda point" (about 2K) it becomes a superfluid. You can create vortices in it that (unless something is done to stop them) never stop spinning.... If you keep them cold forever, which, as you pointed out, is not a simple task without using energy to cool it.

    • @frog1405
      @frog1405 4 роки тому +3

      @@Theoq99 I think there's also the problem that it only started spinning when he messed with it. I'm fairly sure for it to be considered perpetual motion, it has to be moving without an outside force acting on it. Basically something like, if you grab the thing and hold it in place and then slowly let go and it never starts to move again unless you mess with it, then it wouldn't be perpetual motion because it needs an initial force or something like that, while if you slowly let it go and it starts moving again on its own, then that is considered perpetual motion because there was no initiating force. Or something like that, I vaguely remember reading something along those lines a while ago at least, but that may not have been correct.

    Edit: I thought about this a little more. You could have a system of tubes feeding liquid nitrogen to beds of magnets along rails or in the ground, sort of like how liquid cooling works in computers.

    Very nice explanation, correctly describing the physics of quantum locking (which mind you the vast majority of UA-camrs get wrong!). One thing that's wrong though, is your description at around 13:00. Flux pinning and the Meissner effect are two distinctively different effects. At transition, a type-2 SC specifically does NOT go into the Meissner state, it only does at very low magnetic fields. (and also has nothing to do at all with impurities) It instead lets these flux lines through as you very nicely described before. They are in a basic, homogenous situation free within the sample. Flux pinning/locking is specifically when you have those locations in the material where it's favourable for such a vortex to exist, like impurities or grain boundaries, with mostly the latter in the case of a piece of bulk ReBCO like you have. It takes energy to move them and hence they are "locked" of "pinned" in space.

If your gap is just right for your specific magnet, it'll "stick" to the plexi-glass about as firmly as a fridge magnet would stick to the steel.

    This was very cool, thank you. I made my own 123 superconductor (as we called them in the old days) as a high school science project back in 1990. I made it in the metalwork shop using the electric furnace and then oxygen from the oxy acetylene welding blown over it during the cool down phase. The floating magnet was the only way I could prove what I made was actually a superconductor I seem to remember getting the magnet from the local university (who supplied the chemicals) as rare earth magnets were, well, rare back then. Liquid nitrogen I used to get from the uni as well in a thermos with a cork in the top with a hole drilled though it for the reasons you mention at the end of your film. I remember going home on the bus (was too young to drive then) and clouds of vapour shooting out the top when the bus went over bumps. I also remember writing to Paul Chu to tell him about my project and him sending back a signed photo of himself!

    @kylehill. I worked at a facility that made cryogenic pressure and storage vessels for all areas of industry. We even made the dewer you had in your video. You were mostly correct in your description of the vessel with a few exceptions.
    1: The port on the side that is covered with a black shiny flexible plastic cover, is not a relief valve. It is the vacuum pump down the port. Which is capped with a small stainless steel puck that has a single o-ring in it. The back of this plug is has a female thread cut into it to aid in installation. The sticky grease inside that port is silicone-based and helps the o-ring maintain its seal. Fun fact: there is nothing holding that plugin other than atmospheric pressure and the slight amount of frictions from the press-fit of the o-ring inside the smooth bore of the port. (The internal vessel has a heater inserted into it during pump out to aid in removing moisture and air. The plugs are inside the nozzle of the hose that pulls a vacuum and is released after the vacuum was pulled. The plug has a chamfer on the inside that it stops on in the port.
    2. Not all cryogenic storage vessels are open to the atmosphere. There are vessels that maintain a pressure that can range up to 220psi, which is maintained with calibrated relief valves. almost always in pairs. One(1) for the operating pressure and one (1) at a higher fail-safe pressure [usually 300 psi]. These are very common and are used by hospitals and restaurants everywhere. The CO2 for your tasty beverage at a restaurant comes from a pressure vessel of the same design.
    These pressure vessels also using a soldered copper coil, that is bonded to the outer shell inside the vacuum space. This is used to vaporize the liquid and generate gas from the vaporization of the cryogenic liquid. CO2 being liquid under pressure means it doesn't explicitly need to use the system to work, but the expansion of the liquid to gas still requires energy so it helps with efficiency.
    Another fun fact is: each tank is rated by its NER (Natural Evaporation Rate). It is the percentage of liquid lost by mass in 1 day if the vessel is not operated or opened. Almost all tanks have a rate of less than 1% but there are some that go as high as 1.29%. I would say yours is about 0.7% Larger tanks have a lower NER because the surface area doesn't increase at the same rate as the volume. Plus the main area of thermal transfer doesn't increase all that much.
    As you said, no matter where that vessel is, you cant stop the transfer of energy into the liquid inside. But you can mitigate it.
    The first way to mitigate thermal transfer is by reducing how much area can conduct heat to the inner vessel. We do this with the vacuum around it. This leaves only the neck as that sole point of contact that can transfer energy directly to the inner vessel, and yes you read that right. The neck is the only thing connecting the two walls. All that weight even on some of the larger tanks is supported solely by the neck. There are only a few non-structural foam spacers that sit under the inner vessel to provide some stabilization to the neck and don't stop excessive lateral force
    The second is protecting the inner vessel from radiation of all kinds. This is done by wrapping the inner vessel in fiberglass and aluminum foil strips, about 5-12 layers thick. Thich helps protect from infrared radiation and some others, but other forms of EM radiation can still penetrate the vessel or interact with its surface and transfer energy.
    Love your show, new and old, and enjoy all the topics you bring up.
    Enjoy the info dump everyone else ^^ and sorry I'm late to this.

    @12:00 I want to stress how dangerous magnets can be with a real life story that happened to teacher when I was in high school. The teacher had a stack of powerful magnets in his pocket which he intended to have a class use to make electric motors with coated copper wiring and a AA battery. He made a mistake of putting his wallet in the same pocket with the magnets and now all the cards that had magnetic strips are now erased, this was also proven on Mythbusters.

    Hi Kyle, it’s even cooler when you build a Möbius strip from the permanent magnets and a shuttle of polystyrene with the super conductor inside. You can then push the shuttle along the track and the quantum locking will have the shuttle travelling even upside down proving the effect is not just simple magnetic repulsion.
