    My calculations say this slingshot is 110,850 joules, the energy is about the same as a cannon and the kinetic energy of Joerg's truck at 34 km/h (he stated the weight of it in another video). Very powerful.
    EDIT: sorry made a miscalculation don't what it was but this cannon is actually around 6,000 joules

      Smithy0013 Look in the description, 200 kg force on 80 mm steel ball accelerating for 10 metres is how I got the velocity, and the weight of the ball is easily calculated using the density of steel

    • @Hack3r91
      @Hack3r91 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      ***** I think there is something out of place though. Perhaps I am not using the data correctly but here's what I get.
      If 200 Kg (2000 N) of force is the AVERAGE force acting on the ball, then the energy delivered amounts to F·ds = 2000 N * 3 m = 6000 J, no matter what the projectile is.
      Now for the velocity. As you said, you can find the mass using the radius of the ball and the density of steel. The density of steel is something between 7.75 to 8.05 g/cm3 according to Teh Googlez, I shall average it to 7.9 for the calculations.
      The ball has a 4cm radius, the mass turns out to be about 2.1 kg. The starting velocity is then given by √(2E/m)
      which is about 74m/s or 268km/h (holy flying monkey shit). This sounds like a bit of an overshoot to me, to be honest.

    • @Hack3r91
      @Hack3r91 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      ***** If however we take the MAXIMUM force to be 200 kg (2000 N), and suppose that Hooke's law applies, we have exactly half the energy calculated before: 3000 J
      This still translates to a fairly fast 53 m/s = 192 km/h of starting speed for the 80mm ball.

I proudly and responsibly own dozens of them and thoroughly enjoy shooting them. This gentleman brings to light several clever means by which to approximate the challenge and thrill of shooting sports for folks in those repressive parts of the world where the individual's right to bear arms is infringed upon by cowards, bureaucrats and the otherwise, tragically stupid. Three cheers for this fellow! Long live this übermensch!

    • @reconnaisancesapper
      @reconnaisancesapper 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I was not surprised that the steel balls didn't knock holes into the car. The balls may have been heavy but due to the lack of velocity, there was not enough kinetic energy to achieve this. Mind you, if that had hit a person, the person wouldn't be alive to tell the story of how painful it was. The result may not have been a hole but would have wreaked havoc on say, the chest area.

    after watching one of his newest videos then coming back here, I've noticed, over the years he's gained both weight and muscle, and oddly enough, his accent seems to have become stronger despite having been using english so often in his videos. In these older videos he seemed more like he was doing this for fun alone, now he does it for both fun and a living, all in all, I think the quality of his builds has increased greatly, and he's gotten a little more entertaining, he's aged well these past 5 years.
