    8:28 - the most important part of video, this show that sound comes from switching domains NOT from magnet flying around the coil ( thus it also generate changeable magnetic flux which generate small current). It means that flux change rate is the greatest when domains are switching inside iron bar...

      I would dispute (or prove) that actually. I would make a test with just the coils without the Iron bar inside, and subtract that noise from the experiment. The result would be mostly the same, but it would also shut up all the smartasses talking about magnetic induction (me included).

      Another to totally agree. At first I wasn’t convinced, it seemed like you were just creating electrical current as the magnet waved across the coiled wire, but as soon as you showed the part about approaching the end with one pole, then repeating it with no noise, and then flipping it and the noise returned. Super cool experiment!

      @@antonk.653 i don't think we can easily subtract that noise, because the coil with and without iron bar have different inductive reactance, it means the noise from the inductive current of the coil with iron bar still different from the noise without iron bar we can't just subtract it.

It just proves that solid materials and generally matter, can have properties that we don't know or easily understand, a good example is quantum spin, that is the way matter interacts with electromagnetism.

    Wouldn't the sound heard simply be the electricity being generated?
    Like when the polarity of the one side of the magnet comes close to the iron bar - the elections of the iron are pulled in one direction to align. As the electrons in the iron shift/flip polarity towards the magnet - each flip causes a short spike in electricity - this is the "clicks" of static heard.
    This is the 1st flow/pulse of electricity. Once the magnet is flipped it causes the reversal of the electrons in the opposite direction & static is heard once more. This is the 2nd flow/pulse of electricity.

    Also found out that a reverse-biased transistor makes a constant white noise through an amplifier, might be interesting to do a video on that, I think it's avalanche breakdown or something? It was really useful for sound design since you could modulate it to make percussive sound effects or jet engines or something, but now days we have free software for that

    That demonstration also explains why condenser microphones are better than traditional microphones, of course the noise is extremely quiet but still noticeable

    Isn't this also related to how am radio works? Radio waves induce a changing magnetic field in the am antenna which the electronics then convert to sound

    • @YSPACElabs

      No, the antenna picks up radio waves (light at very low frequencies) and because of the photoelectric effect, this causes electrons to move around. That signal is then amplified and demodulated (or demodulated and amplified by electronics. I am pretty sure that this is correct.

      Yes, it is Only the magnetic field flips orientation hundreds of times a second. Domains in a regular iron bar would not be able to react so quickly, so a special material is used. But tbe principle is the zame.

      Depends, a radio can really off the induced magnetic field using a ferrite core antenna or a the electromagnetic waves with an iron antenna

      If I understand antennas well they react to electric fields and not magnetic fields

    I found this effect many years ago, but I did not know the correct cause; at the time I had thought that it's was just the amp reacting badly to the generated DC voltage which was likely above it's designed input range. Thanks for explaining the real reason for this.

    If you have an electric guitar you can try this out with no effort :) The pickups are both the magnet and the coil, just wiggle around a piece of iron around them. May need to crank the volume up a bit though.

    As a musician I should probably know the answer to this but isn't that the basic stuff behind how guitar pickups work? Really cool!

    I did this back in 1970 with a telephone pickup coil and a little reel-to-reel tape recorder as a amp. Worked really well. Of course, I did not know what it was really back then.

    When you move the magnet towards the coil, it detects a change in magnetic flux of the permanent magnet as the magnetic fieldlines are inducing current to the coil and it gets amplified by the guitar amplifier.
