Medium motor has .12 Newton meters of force, 1 Newton can in a frictionless environment can move .225 pounds. A semi truck fully loaded can be 80,000lbs. 80,000lbs/.225= 355,555 newton's of force needed. 1.1bill x .12newtons of the motor is 132 million newton's. Or 371x the force needed.
Totally amazing! Amazing that we are so near of the unlimited world! Out of physics, we are in philosophy with this simple machinery: 10 exponent 144!This deserves to be in a museum of science. Great!
When using worm gears, I've noticed they always have a little bit of play back and forth on the axle, like they're a tiny bit shorter than two units. That means when a worm gear spins, rather than transmitting torque right away, it has to screw itself up the spur gear maybe a millimeter, until it hits the barrier, and only then can it start driving the next pair. Given the exponential growth of the ratios, the amount of rotations needed to clear this gap also increases. Until every single worm reaches it's "locked up" position, the car can not start moving. How long would it take for the car to start moving in the extreme case where every single worm gear is as far back as possible from it's locked up position?
That problem should be fixed because I've used an axle with a stopper and the worm drive is pressed against that stopper using the 8 tooth gear. For the last few cars I just assumed there are "no tolerances"
so if you can go that slow and it would take a life time (most likely I would be near my death by it moves like a MM) so if it can do that why not reverse witch way the motor gets inputted meaning speed of light?
Interesting idea, but sadly there's a pretty simple reason why it doesn't work: Having an 8:1 reduction makes the output 8x as strong, but an 1:8 transmission reduces the strength 8x. In other words, there would be no force strong enough to power that car. Especially because screws are designed that they can't be driven backwards.
In theory these forces should definitely be big enough, since every transmission 8x-es the strenght. It still wouldn't move anyways though, that's why I've purposefully ignored wear and "wiggle room" in the video.
@@in1 yeah all fine can happen I just thought when I saw the velocity looks little bit more like only two times 😂 if it would be possible to spin it that direction be careful not that universe explodes when you reach 20 times light speed 😂
Oh, that's a good point. But I guess that's also the case for the top, and I can't really put it into the center. Thanks for the feedback tho, I will try to put it a bit higher
3:47 If the speed would be 6 000 000 000 m/s it would actually be 20x the speed of light since the speed of light c≈300 000 000 m/s. 2 * 300 000 000 = 600 000 000, ten times less than the value you claim.
@@in1 You could try making a super beefed up chasis and add some weight on it (to prevent the wheels from slipping) and see how much weight a single motor could pull with extremely high gear ratios.
Well I've asked for feedback, but I don't think removing the music would make it less boring. Still waiting for that multi language audio feature to roll out for all creators, then that problem should be solvable.

That is probably almost enough torque to pull a semi trailer if the parts could survive. XD
If the parts, connections and ground grip were infinitely strong, it would definitely be able to do that. Just very slowly.

It can move anything, just ad 1000, and i think u can move planets or stars but not practical at all...

I built a similar setup, but without the motor, and it achieved a complete standstill. So very slow indeed! ;)

Hello, fello Randall Munroe fan!

Going into deep physics is not what I expected. I thought that you would calculate out the limit where these additive friction forces overcome torque.
In theory these forces should definitely be big enough, since every transmission 8x-es the strenght. It still wouldn't move anyways though, that's why I've purposefully ignored wear and "wiggle room" in the video.
At 3:44 is a mistake. Light speed is 300 000 000 m/s if the speed in the box is correct it’s 20 times the speed of light and not only 2 times
You're totally right, I was pretty tired when I wrote those boxes. The image is correct, but both the gear ratio and speed have an extra "0"

Imagine the torque of those things
This is very frustrating; The premise is: how slow can a Lego car go; yet this isn’t demonstrated until The very end !
Thats a lot of torque, you should test how much it can pull.
That would probably simply make the wheel slip, axles bend or gears break
