      This guy reminds me of my high school chemistry and physics teacher from the early 90's. Both great educators and my senior year my teacher was scheduled to retire and had a bunch of stuff no longer allowed in schools in his lab. He handed me and my buddy a copy of chapter 4 of "the anarchist's cookbook" titled bombs and booby-traps and a list of items that were banned then sent us to take "inventory" of the lab just to make sure he didn't have anything illegal back there. We blew so much stuff up that summer I'm surprised we survived.

    Ive been impatiently waiting for the next video so i've done a bit of research myself on this :P. It seems like the effectiveness of shaped charges comes from the detonation velocity and brisance of the explosive. From what i've read increasing the pressure of a hydrogen oxygen mix does not raise the detonation velocity very much. However at 20 atmospheres thats 20x the combustion products to act on the liner, but were still only realistically looking at ~15 grams of explosive in the tube. PS the paper i was reading planned to test initial pressures up to 10,000 PSI but the mixture spontaneously exploded at 4,500 PSI, so dont do that ;)

      @TechIngredients  Před 4 lety +110

      Your research mirrors mine. The pre detonation pressure is limited to the containment of the plastic pipe. The hemispherical liner we're using is thin at 1.5 mm in order to lower its inertia, but this why we experiment...we don't know what will happen.

    For those wondering: the reason molecules don’t make a sonic boom although traveling well beyond supersonic levels. Is because you can imagine that they’re basically too small and traveling through a vacuum, they’re bumping into each other and in every direction instead of one direction in a front, and a sonic boom we hear is just the byproduct of an object jostling these air molecules so fast in the concentrated direction so the energy travels as that shockwave we feel see and hear

    I am 80 years old and in 1964 I was the foreman / superintendent worked at Yuma Proving Ground ( YPG ) Yuma, Az. We built the gun referred to as the BIG GUN 16 inch bore at 119 feet 6 inches long and it would put a Messel fired with 750 pounds of black powder 86 miles at 88 degrees. Stepped up to 1000 pounds of black powder it just kipped going. So I appreciate the sounds of detonation we would rattle windows up to 50 miles away and in Yuma, Az. This project was called ( HARP ) High Altitude Research Project. I was 20 years old at the time The site Engineer was Roy Kelly and the Design Engineer was Gerald Bull. HBO Movie Who Killed Gerald Bull ( the Israelis ) did because they hired him to build a bigger gun for them and their Engineers told their government israel it would never work so they refused to pay him the 3 Million for engineering. Gerald bull put the project on the market to the highest bidder and Iraq ( Sadat Husain ) said we will take it. when the first stage of the project was successful fired down range 120 miles 36 inch round and landed 20 feet of the target. Figure it out watch 4 clips from 60 Minutes. And HBO movie who killed Gerald bull. He was the fastest made citizen in the United States. 10 minutes in front of Congress to get the project rolling so he had dual citizenship U.S. and Canada. He was a professor at Mc Gill University in Canada. He was a friendly and nice person to work with to bad Israel took that position if you hire someone pay them instead of kill them.

      Honestly why not enrich the fuel mixture of a csr useing a hydrogen sprayer in the injection system or carborator. Think about it. If we used an electrolosus tank near the rear of the car that was run directly off the alternator it would theoretically split the hydrogen and oxygen from distilled water and create hydrogen and oxygen in two seperate tanks. Therefore we just mix them in the injection system and allow the car to get a constant fuel boost to help with fuel cutting fuel consumption. This would save a lot of money and energy in the long run. Its kinda like in video games when your driveing a car and somehow the nitrous just recharges out of thin air. But instead its hydrogen and oxygen being split and recombined in the engine block as it gets sparked into releasing its potential energy. Just as he said a 50 50 and a spark will work just fine.

This was the 4th of July and there was a thick cloud cover around 1000 feet up. The resulting explosion wasn't what alerted the cops, it was the echoing of the blast between the cloud cover and ground that spread outward and outward and outward for miles that got their attention. They showed up within minutes because his property was the only place around with lights blazing from arc lamps in the yard. He was honest and admitted to the blast leaving out some details and they left after he said that he was done for the night. The noise was incredible and it just went on and on and on

    you are obviously a very knowledgeable and effective teacher of sciences. I'm so surprised I haven't found this channel before. You explain the basics of chemistry in a way that is still extremely engaging!

    The detail and maturity of your explanation is a reflection of the depth of your study and knowledge.
    Keep going prof!

      You mean hydroxic acid?! That stuff can act as the vector for a lot of carcinogens. It can turn harmless CO2 into an acid on contact AND its the largest component of cobra venom.

      @Loli4lyf Yes. Just not yet. There may be a slight delay of roughly 90 years from birth (give or take roughly 10 years). Make the most of your life while you can, 'cos it won't last forever.

    Really fantastic an interesting stuff, especially around the interactions involving shock waves and flame fronts. The stoichiometric vs. optimal mixture was particularly informative. Thanks for producing great content!

    Before you said, you have to smile about this, I was already smiling. The big explosion at 27 minutes absolutely was a ear to ear smile, and I had to watch it about 3 times maybe 4. Thank you for the enjoyment you gave me. I've always loved playing with fireworks and I bet when you were a kid you played with fireworks also. Thank you again
