    This Tungsten Cube is pretty much the heaviest 4” cube you can get here on earth. It’s one of the densest elements which makes it insanely weighty for its size. You literally can’t make sense of it when you see it then try to pick it up haha. We’ve been wanting to KO stuff with it at our drop tower for ages so it was epic to finally get it done!

    The symbol "W" comes from the middle name of Tungsten-> The name "wolfram" (or "volframio") comes from the German Wolf ram, "wolf dirt", because this black mineral reduces the value of the tin veins in which it is present. In today's German, the name Tungsten is also used.

    @culthosmythos 3 ปีที่แล้ว +145

    A serious question for you guys- Does the Gravity Research Centre (by which I mean the building next to the tower you use, which most likely owns it) have a seismometer on site? If so, I think it would be very interesting to look at the readings whenever you make a drop, as technically you would be causing mini earthquakes to occur each time you impact. You could also then literally quantify the force transfered from the impacts (given that the mass of the Earth and distance of detection from the impact would be effectively constant) and determine a scale of energy transference- you could quantify just how hard Brucie can punching the Earth, for example.

    • @Sheridantank
      @Sheridantank 3 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      It’s not a “mini earthquake”. They surely would register on a seismograph though. You could compute the forces Just with basic math without dropping anything. They should get a seismograph to measure the impact though, still a good idea

      There's a formula for that somewhere. I'm not a scientist or a mathematician. It has something to do with force, mass, acceleration and stuff. I only know the limited bit I read from looking into maximum break strength (MBS) of carabiners. I have taken an interest in climbing trees (arboriculture) and I dive down rabbit holes every once in a while. I'm still very ignorant to a lot of the trade though.

    The density of Tungsten is one reason they use it in armor piercing rounds. Depleted Uranium (DP) is slightly less dense. DP is only slightly radioactive. The round used in the A-10 ground attack aircraft uses DP 30mm x 173mm round, at around 4,000 - 6,000 rounds per minute. It can literally stop a tank dead in its tracks.

  • @joshuatilley1887

    Some physics comparison here with a .50 Cal bullet:
    •The energy of the tungsten cube from this height is 9kJ while the .50 cal bullet is 18kJ, bullet wins here
    •The momentum of the tungsten cube is 600Ns vs the .50 cal's 38 Ns, so the cube wins here
    In short, the bullet can break more stuff but the cube sends the shrapnel flying more explosively. It would be interesting to compare the two in destructive power in a video!

  • @jeffsampson5822
    @jeffsampson5822 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    7:05 Basically, you take a long copper pipe and twist it into a coil, and then weld it so there are no gaps, and make a flat piece like this too. Weld it to the bottom. Place this in a vacuum chamber. Then, pump water through the coils, and pass a current through the copper. Turn the current way up so the resistance causes an insane amount of energy loss as heat. Then, put some raw tungsten in there, and let it melt. Once it is liquid, add other metals to make a nice alloy (or keep pure tungsten). Then, pour it into the cube mold, probably made of sand. This is called an electric crucible and is the only way to efficiently melt tungsten, which has a melting point of 6192 degrees Fahrenheit, higher than any other elemental metal.
