    Here's a list of questions answered in this video:
    1. Can you boil hot water with ice?
    2. Does tonic water that contains Quinine glow under a black light?
    3. Does a shot glass prevent water from spilling out of a water bottle?
    4. Does a cold tennis ball bounce higher than a warm tennis ball?
    5. Does a tangerine with a peel float, while a tangerine without a peel sinks?
    6. Does a shriveled up dry pine cone expand when placed in water?
    7. Can soap propel a leaf across the surface of water?
    8. Does maple syrup make a squishy egg after you soak the egg in vinegar?

      To be fair I've seen the soap boat trick. Essentially the leaf is riding the boundary between the water and soapy water as it expands

      The reason candle flames are hollow is that the reaction is caused by a mixture of oxygen and fuel. Near the candle any oxygen that could get there was used already used up. Far from the candle the fuel will have burned already. With the hot air rising it creates this beautiful "flame" shape we all know and love on its boundry

    The dish soap can be used for a cool party bet too. You pour some pepper in a bowl of water and bet people to get all the pepper out of the middle, they can use anything in the house. They go for spoons, paper towels, cups, but no one ever thinks of dish soap. Just coat your finger in a bit of the dish soap and stick it in the middle of the bowl, all the pepper is pushed away from the middle just like the boat is propelled forward.

    First one I got totally wrong. That light thing didn't look right to me, and I thought something else was added to pull off that effect. Massive props to whoever thought of putting it next to regular water to make it look fake. The second one I thought everything was legit. Not only did I feel ike we were due for a clip where everything was legit, the logic behind the tennis ball sounded kinda legit to me, I had heard of the pinecone thing before, and I felt like I was able to logic the tangerine one to me.
    At least I got round 3 right. But I feel like round 3 is the "Throw them a bone" round at this point.

  • @lethaldumpster2699
    @lethaldumpster2699 Před rokem

    Atmospheric pressure? Sure, but I would more call it to be the pressure from within the bottle. In ez explanation, you need air to replace the water inside the bottle, for the water to spill out. But the air can't get under the bottle opening to float up, because its blocked by the cup of water. Gravity is pulling down on the water, causing a negative pressure within the bottle which will keep the water sucked in unless the water can be replaced with air. It's like taking an empty cup and pushing it into water upside down. The cup will still be full of air because it can't get around to the outside of the cup to let water replace it.

    The tennis ball thing is not about the stiffer material, but about the reduced air pressure inside.

    • @Jwellsuhhuh
      @Jwellsuhhuh Před 11 měsíci +1

      Yeah a stiffer material would mean less KE converted to deformation energy and hence a more elastic collision that will bounce it higher

  • @pixelhavoc4950
    @pixelhavoc4950 Před rokem

    I immediately knew the tennis ball clip was fake. Elasticity is achieved by a balance of flexibility and rigidity. Ping Pong balls are completely rigid, but bounce because they're lightweight and hollow, meaning that they usually take more of the force than the thing they're impacting (because they're working on hard surfaces). Tennis Balls are designed for use outside in the grass and dirt which is much softer and have to go a lot further, so they're made of rubber, a material which is decently rigid and flexible, and then pumped with air, which means that they have to maintain a certain size. This means that the balls can squash when they initially hit the ground, but then the compression force causes a pulling force on the outside, causing the ball to compress in the other direction, thus launching it back off the ground.

    Round 1: a) true, but not sure why, b) true (peanut butter also looks cool under black light), c) false, there'd need to be a way for air to get into the bottle for that to happen
    Round 2:
    a) false, increased stiffness will make it bounce *less* because it deforms less, so can return less energy in the bounce
    b) true, I think, probably because there's air in the cells (holes, not plant cells) of the skin
    c) I dunno, seems true because all open pinecones I've seen are dry and all closed ones are on the tree still, so maybe?
    Round 3: a) true, similar to the soap on a plate full of milk trick, b) false, that's just a fidget toy, c) true
    Edit: nice!

    Round 1: I _think_ A might be fake. I honestly have no idea. C does feel right, though. (I had to fucking say it, didn't I? The only one I was certain was real was the fake one. This is why I got a C in thermodynamics and fluid mechanics).
    Round 2: From what I recall, the polymers in the tennis ball should in fact stiffen when chilled. This will prevent the ball from deforming, which would absorb some of the energy, and thus the cold ball will bounce higher. I'm less certain about the pine cone, but I do believe that the openness of a pine cone depends on moisture, so that also sounds right. The tangerine, however, is still mostly water, so should retain its buoyancy. So I'm guessing B is fake. (I'm just... I don't... how does that work?)
    Round 3: Both A and B feel too fake to be fake, and I don't know what to believe. C actually sounds reasonable, though. So I'm gonna vote E, both A and B are fake, with utter confidence that I am wrong. (I'll take half credit!)

      Water is THE thing microwaves are designed to heat (we make them to produce a particular size of microwave which water absorbs really well, they could technically be made to heat any chemical). That's why they fail to heat ceramic plates and other things with a low water content.
