Mirror-Polished Japanese Foil Ball Challenge Crushed in a Hydraulic Press-What's Inside?

  • In this video I make a Japanese polished foil ball by using aluminum foil and pounding with a hammer and then polishing until it becomes a solid metal polished ball! These polished foil balls started with a Japanese jeweler who made one that appeared to have no purpose, but the nation became obsessed with it and everyone started making them! You can see what's inside an aluminum foil ball when I crush it in my hydraulic press and see if the density increases or not.

    This takes me back. In elementary school on burger day in the cafeteria we'd take foil wrappers and make balls. Then at lunch recess we'd play a game like baseball but with our hands as bats. We eventually found out rubbing them on the concrete would fuse together all the gaps. They usually ended up pretty square though lol. This video even managed to remind of how the burgers tasted.

    @michaelslater6839 2 роки тому +31

    Love your video. However, I have a suggestion to maximize the density. When you put a post in the ground you start tamping (compacting) the dirt around the post long before you fill the hole to the top. you tamp The very first you start tamping after the first or second shovel full of dirt. Then you repeat the process until the area around the post is full of compressed dirt. If you were to wait until the hole was full of dirt you won’t be able to fully compress the dirt bottom.
    I suggest that you try tapping/compressing the ball when it was much smaller if you wanted to get it close to the density of aluminum. And then with each layer.

    • @toonybrain
      @toonybrain 2 роки тому +3

      Indeed.
      When I saw the volume, I was thinking that the ball looked solid but was actually honeycombed inside: full of pockets of air, because the hammer looked to be effective but wasn’t fully effective in achieving compaction.
      As such, I wasn’t surprised when the ball crumbled under the hydraulic press.

    Me and my sister used to do this, we have biscuits covered in chocolate! And we use the foil it’s covered by. We save around 32 peices of foil and we make it into 12 balls, and polish them and hand some out to our friends and keep 3 balls each to keep. Our dad is usually the one polishing it but we do the rest like pounding it down to shape. It was so fun to make!

      Alex Olsson You are able to watch this video because knowledge about physics has been applied to engineer your device and the information network that connects it to many other devices. So actually you are witnessing the fruit of "physics from school" all the time without even knowing it.

    • @donovangunther4538
      @donovangunther4538 6 років тому +3

      Ever seen fire before? The air around the source of heat has the electron levels jumping due to the energy, as a result when they go back down a level they emit light causing the orange glow or even other colours it you were to put the appropriate oxidised metals in (as seen in basic chem classes). There ya go high school level quantum physics irl. Want more? K
      Ya know that sound when fast cars, planes or other similar things go by. Yeah the ‘neeeewoooo’ sorta sound. That’s a result of red and blue shifts in wave motion from the sound of the vehicle and it’s velocity (fun fact: same applies for light but because C is so much greater than anything realistically achievable (besides observations in astrophysics with the fabric of space-time pulling stars away from us)). There ya go some high school level wave physics. More?! K
      Have you ever not moved in a straight line, like turned or something. I’ll disregard how so much as walking or functioning in everyday life is impossible without friction but given how famous Newton is for being the smartest man to ever walk the Earth I’ll assume you know this but just forgot because it’s so natural. Back to the topic at hand, it’s actually impossible to so much as turn without centripetal force so it’s pretty safe to assume that that aspect of physics is present at every single point of your life. Do I need to continue?
      TL:DR PHYSICS IS IRL FFS!

      Well, since what happens in our nervous system is a physical process we witness the consequences of "physics from school" in every thought and perception we have during every second of our existence.
      Now from that premise I could go way further than that but I'll leave it at that, original commenter is probably just a schoolkid bored by physics class, I don't want to cause an existential crysis so soon in life.

      I don't care for school in particular, wheter you learn something at school or at a library or through the web doesn't matter.
      However I deeply care for education and everything it offers us. The potential that knowledge gives to our life is limitless once we embrace it. It doesn't necessarily make us happier but once we get at least a broad understanding of various fields it certainly makes us wiser and able to influence the variables in our life in the best interest of ourselves and of the people around us.
