Imagine finding and playing with a superconductor in the middle ages, and then being declared a witch because you caused some shiny rock to levitate.
Jesus ur early.
Justin Y. hello justin.
Then you get burned alive because of the lack of scientific knowledge of the humans.
Oh..i thougt ur dead lol
I don't think there was that much liquid nitrogen in the middle ages
I just found out through my parents something really cool. So I've been watching you since 2014-ish. I loved the stuff I learned so interesting that I showed my parents. Apparently, they know you. Do you possibly remember the McCoy's? Justin and Monica McCoy?
Cool
Doxxed
maju oh cmon
Mentioning people's real IDs on the interweb is a bad move my guy.
@@Geolaminar In general you're right. I think the original poster giving his parents' name is pretty harmless for a channel like this, although he should have maybe just supplied their first or last names, which would have sufficed.
DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE,its second time that when teacher explains something in school,you upload video with exact same topic
He probably knows your teacher
I also find very interesting that it doesn't "compress" like springs do.
Considering basically 0 friction it would be an amazing tech for smth like trains or delivery.
but it'd have to be super cold
A lack of sufficient friction is actually the bigger problem on trains. The reason trains have so many wheels is because trains can't get sufficient traction on the rails to move their massive weight. And if you had an alternative means of propelling the train and you wanted to do so at such a speed that friction with tracks would be a problem, it'd basically be flying at that point anyway.
Although it's very expensive, needs a lotta energy to cool down and so doesn't beat the modern magnet trains
@@2Cerealbox How about this: normal frictional wheels when gaining or reducing speed which then lift off the track, replaced by superconducting magnets when cruising?
Wow you discovered bullet trains
When I think about it, I'm just watching how someone makes levitating cup of salt and I don't even think it's weird. CZcams is very interesting place.

As soon as he said quantum I stopped trying to understand
BRUH
Chili Plays why are you geh?
Never "stop trying to understand". Always be curious.
You should try
It's not exactly hard, it's counter intuitive mostly, yes, but it makes sense
The math is weird, yes but we did no math
I think it might be a reference but not sure
I got startled when the salt fell. Time for even more coffee
Random being: "so how many times can you say crazy?"
The Action Lab dude: yes
"look at that"
The salt waste tho
You mean the action lab says "that's a crazy question"

It's absolutely phenomenal with what you can do with basic chemistry
More physic than chemistry, you could even call it metallurgy (to be fair, in a way they are all the same thing)
This is not chemistry and this is not basic physics

Hey
When it was hanging
You pushed it a bit and it started rotating but why did it rotate backwards again as if it was tied to a rope
Why did it happen?
Hope you understand my question
Nice observation.
I wonder what happens if it continues to be forced in one direction. Will it gain resistance until the pinning effect is broken?
I think this is also part of the process that occurs on the Sun leading to coronal Mass ejections and such.
I may (probably) be wrong, but I think this is because of the quantum locking itself, the conductor wants to stay in the same position it is, so as he rotates it, it builds up resistance that creates rotation on the backwards direction
Crazy! Time for your *Superconductor Swing!!*
Amazing, best video you've had yet.. really thinking outside the box for new content, yet keeping the experiment very interesting, and something most of us have probably wondered about. Thank you.
Cool, fun experiment. Superconductivity is awesome, hence why I'll do my thesis in it. And my internship coming April at CERN. On this experiment; if you would do this with a known field, like with a solonoid, you could make an approximation to the pinning force inside the conductor.
Congrats for getting the internship!
"That is crazy" is my new SMS sound btw
"look at that!"
@@Ray-lc8lz what do you mean!??😁❤
It's is the real way to teach physics to teenagers or any age group of people
Why don't you just push/pull it down with a force sensor? Then you won't have to deal with the puck cooling or the cup falling and you can get a more accurate reading.
No video material there lol
today in my PE class, we played floor hockey, and I wondered what would happen if we played hockey with a superconductor instead of a puck (assuming the entire floor was made of neodymium magnets and the superconductor puck had already been cooled down). There would be almost no friction, so the puck would be moving really fast, right?
Some type of inverse square law involved... My bet was far more than just that cannisters of salt!
Not really, the magnetic field is mostly uniform in front of a square magnet .... till it's not, it's complicated but it's certainly not an inverse square
Usually the inverse square law applies when the field spreads radially (away from, kinda like how you used to draw sunrays in preschool drawings) from a sphere or point however even a spherical magnet will not create an inverse square field because the magnetic field lines aren't radial (they go from one pole to the next)
Always fun to see your work.
This great mind not thinking of just using heavy cubes and not outbalancing the superconductor
He wanted to get a precise value of weight

Well thats true
The platform that magnet is propelled from is the earthgrid/paved road. The magnet is car. Radio frequency emitted with the transitioning of housed electrons within a programmed trinity laser will ascend the vehicle. The trinity laser, while housing electrons, will also allow for a halogent-road to be projected under the vehicle causing it to rise where certain sections of the physical road emits lower electromagnetic frequency. The trinity laser will also project a pathway, similar to gps without a sat comm & have the capability to sense for objects with an electron force field to prevent vehicular accidents with singulairity cpu drive.
Love how excited he gets
Thank you for the awesome content ♥️
Love your videos
wow that is way cool! loved it
5:01 This laugh is like a verification of him!😂
Thats SO COOL!
Very interesting video.
Try locking the puck above one of those prinyed magnets. U know the one that has a couple of north and south poles on one side. They have more strenght with a smaller surface and a smaller gap.
I think that's one of the neatest experiments I've seen in a long time
Awesome video .
I wounded if super conductors would work in hover cars. And yes I know that replacing roads with massive magnets would oppose to major problems but its still fun to think about.
Yes, they work in hover trains already
its comin
I love quanton locking super conductors.
Cool video as usual and Metatron's cube shirt
This is awesome. This is what I watch when the “trending” section of CZcams is all about the outbreak. 🥴
So much bad luck taken to perform a science experiment.
Probably my most favorite video ever. I love the concept, i see potential here. But i keep replaying the part when you spill the salt twice.
Awesome 👍
Police hear rumors and raid The Action Lab: "What the heck?"
I'd love to make a rail system like what you have but hide it in the top of a bar. Put a drink on a sled of some sort, then slide a drink down the bar to someone! I know there is a little more that that to it but that's the basic idea. I really wish you were my neighbor, I'd be knocking on your door all the time! Another super cool video!
I first heard about superconductors many years ago in Beyond 2000 ( it was Aussie tv show if i remember it right), where they demonstrated that these can actually serve even as replacement for axle bearings in cars with obvious advantage being zero effective friction, however also making somewhat rocky ride in the process as you cannot use traditional spring dampening system in this application.
Is it possible to create a tower of quantum locked pucks? Like stacking magnets over the puck and then another puck on top of that one and so on...?
Not exactly sure it would be possible to place new magnets on top without interfering, though I'd really like to see if it works or what appens otherwise
That’s pretty gnarly
If you could scale the experiment large enough, what would the human body experience if crawled in the gap
I would presume that everything would be normal for the human, except the wow factor...
I'm not a physicist though.
Nothing. Otherwise MRI (which has fields 2 to 3 times higher) wouldn't be safe enough for use in a hospital
@@WouterVerbruggen agree. did I state otherwise? or did you miss-tagged me?
@@Not.Your.Business yeah, my bad. It was a response on Doug IT MAN's comment ;)
Cold air
Wolfe your vid’s mate, where can I buy a superconductor like this one? Appreciate any help cheers and keep making excellent videos!
As the cup tipped over something randomly made a noise in my room lol
Nice 👍
You should cool the magnet too in LN and handle SC and magnet with thermally insulating oven gloves or something. Result will be stronger.
Excellent 👏👍👌😍🌹💋💕
Dude, your making David Copperfield look bad now with your spooky floating disc thingamajig, pretty cool stuff man.
Was hoping for comments about official lab results of superconducting forces and how they compare to your results.
That is crazy!
Does quantum locking work on electromagnets ? Will quantum locking react differently if the superconductor is placed in between 2 magnets (set-up A magnets facing with opposite poles, set-up B/C magnets facing with same poles) and are fixed with both at a distance that barely attracts/repel each other
I think there is one thing I would like to suggest in this experiment. Every time before you add a new weight, you should try to cool the superconductor once again. As you showed in a previous video, there is a time limit to the superconductor's floating ability. So I think that this was very pronounced when you were trying to hang a weight from the superconductor. You had to keep removing some salt again and again, but where as few seconds before it could carry the salt which you had just removed.
How far away can you still get the puck to hover? Towards the end there (around 10:26), it looked like you had it floating about ~6 inches away. I'd be curious to know the maximum distance it would still hover from.
Cool video, as always =) But couldn't you just put the magnets on a scale and start pushing on the superconductor, to read the weight when it starts moving or touching the magnets? Or would it just move, without changing the scale?
You should put the whole system on a weight scale, I know it wouldn't be anything new, but it would be fun to watch, particularly to people that don't study physics and so on
I wonder if it holds less hanging because the more strain that’s put on it the further it’s pulled from the magnet and thus the weaker the field, whereas when it’s being pushed down it’s getting closer to the magnet and the field is stronger.
Edit: 10:55 lol he ends up saying the exact same thing.
I saw this on fb, do you happen to have a parts list/where to buy list of the puck magnet and the track you used in this video? Or did you build the track yourself?
I got your book for Christmas... I'm 36!! haha. I'm going through the experiments with my kids.
With a specific type of element/salt the magnetism could make the particles of the substance start to climb, not sure if it requires a vibration of some sort to make it focused though :(
is the streg=ngth of the lock affected by the magnet?
That is soooo cool
What music plays at 9:30? Its a theme I hear during surreal little super fascinating science bits on this channel quite often. I love the ambience of it.
Whenever I watch your quantum locking videos I imagine this technology being used to make a friction-less form of train travel. Could possibly employ a constant cooling system to maintain low temp of superconductors along the bottom. Probably utilizing a material to trap the coolant like the foam you use.
Or imagine using quantum locking to make a roller coaster. Constant cooling of the superconductors may not be necessary for this.
Bullet trains in China, Korea and Japan do use maglev technology using electro magnets which is far easier and controllable than using superconductors
Is it possible to make different magnet track designs? specifically figure 8s and tracks that overlap where one or multiple parts of the track go through each other?
When he finally got the puck to Quantum Lock level, I felt a huge feeling of relief flood my being. 😅
Salt: falls
James: oh
Have you done any experiments related to music or musical instruments? Just some inspiration for future video ideas.
Can you make a vid about Ansible communication?
Just because we can make something and it's better than it's predecessor in numerous ways doesn't mean that we can just launch it. With something incredible comes along maintenance and fixation . What we cannot fix we cannot maintain and what we cannot maintain won't last .
Cool experiment. I wonder though, would the strength of the magnet itself change the overall load it could carry? Stronger magnet = more weight?
Yes! Look up flux pinning, the wikipedia page has a lot of info about the relationship between both the strength of a magnetic field and the area of the super conductor and how that affects the strength of the pinning
So, because of gravity pulling in one direction, and pushing in the other, if the same weight in the cup were used both above and below the magnet, it is closer above the cup and farther away under the cup. It strikes me that earths elliptical orbit COULD arguably be following similar phenomenon, and so we are a little closer, and a little farther way from the sun...could this be partly explaining the elliptical orbit around the sun? Great video.
10:24 Amazing how low you could hang the puck below the magnet.
3:00 Are the vapers from the liquid nitrogen moving from the superconductor moving to the lower neodymium , I seen them moving when the magnitizem where changing then they go back to same downdraft when it is stable . Is that a form of gravity ?
The only aspect which is holding back the superconductivity concept is requirement of insanely lower temperature to work.
This effect can be achieved in normal temperature then this word will be full of hoverboards
Where can I buy one of these pucks. I know where to buy a 'puck' of solid YBCO through and through, but its not a several-nanometer thin layer deposited on aluminum or a synthetic sapphire (because it conducts heat really well) like I believe you to be using here.
Here in brazil, in Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Me and other 5 friends make a Short travel (500 meters) on a levitation train which uses this tipe of super conductors. This projetc is called Maglev Cobra. It was realy, realy cool.
All things communicate with ansible.
Now an experiment to try, and forgive me if you have, I've only watched about 30 videos so far, would be seeing if you could do a double levitation! Another magnet on top of the superconductor. And if so, how many layers of levitation could you make? 4, 5? Since the weight still gets added to the layers, idk how much would be too much
If you filled the cup with liquid nitrogen (maybe using a metal cup?), it would float for even longer! It's crazy to think the same effect makes maglev trains possible!
Hey, when the superconductor and salt are quantum locked above the magnet. Is the weight transferred to the bottom magnet? That would be cool if the superconductor could cancel out the weight of the salt and its self!
Can you please provide links to the source of the superconducting puck ?
Imagine a quantum-locked roller coaster
As your super good doctor cools what is the differential between temperature drop versus weight the salt? Quantum locking is very intriguing but again it starts with expelling energy from the nitrogen so everything after that waist of energy is a formula that is based on expelling energy to achieve the desired results.
Pretty sure you gotta cool down the ceramic superconductor *while* it's on top of the magnet to get proper flux pinning and prevent it from tilting.
Interesting hypothesis. Depends on the physical reason for the tilt. I'd say the tilt is due to the pinning centre's distribution, which has nothing to do with how it was cooled down. Or more likely, the gradient in the magnetic field.
Metatron cube shirt tho 💯💯💯
how long does it last? so does it lose its conductivity as it gets warmer?
i think u can set the magnet and the puck when it levitate on the scale and then set it to 0. So u can scale the salt. Maybe idk
What will happen if you boil water almost to 100c (steel liquid) and take the van der graff machine activate it and try to spread electrons with scissors, love you vids 🔥🔥🔥
Wow! Applications for fusion reactors?
But repulsive force depends a lot on strength of magnet... So it is magnet that holds it
Conductor: I can define gravity
Gravity: am I a joke to you
I found it intersting that as you added weight there did not seem to be a change in th gap between the magnet and the superconductor. That wold seem to indicate that there is a governing system acting between the magnet and the super conductor. A sort of equilibrium which has to exist. How would you go about measuring the changes which seemingly must take place between the magnet and the super conductor. Also I dont think salt weighs very much so I would like to see something like a spring being used instead of the feild.
You should do a test on how a strong electromagmet influences the superconductors behaviour.
If schools were to change their curriculum to make science this fun, the world would be a better place.
Hi, good viedeo
Quantum mechanics is my favorite topic of all time.
But do you understand it?
@@raahimhadi4905 yes 😁 . It's concept is very easy.
@@quantuamlovers8587 yah
Being a near perfect conductor of the flux shouldn't it act just like another magnet with like poles facing divided by 2 as the it's not generating its own field? oh it's only a thin bit on the bottom..but am i on the right idea?
I know this video is old but hopefully you see this comment. You should keep the magnet (super conductor locked on it) on the scale and check if if the weight increase when you put salt in the cup.....
