      @@asterix45 I've always felt that there are lots of young people interested in science, it's just not a career that's pushed very much in schools (at least not when I went). Often times the careers that pop up as options that are STEM oriented focus mostly on the TEM part, not so much the S part. At least when I was a kid, I always thought that science is something that is reserved for the true geniuses of our world, so I didn't get into it because I felt like I don't have the inherent "talent" required to become a scientist, even though science and math were my favorite subjects in school (ended up going into accounting because I was told "that's math" - it isn't).
      Turns out, you don't have to be a genius - all it takes is for you to be competent enough to be able to grasp the concept after you study, and passionate enough to actually study. Had I known that I would probably pursue it.

      It blows minds to this day, magnetism is (to my knowledge) the only fundamental force that science hasn't identified the unique particle which causes it. If I could study anything at all it would be magnetism, likely the final piece of the standard model puzzle.

    • @gownerjones1450
      @gownerjones1450 ปีที่แล้ว +35

      ​@@Ixidora Magnetism is one effect of the elctromagnetic force which is caused by all subatomic particles that carry electric charge. These come in two flavors, elementary particles and composite particles (also called hadrons). I'll list some of them for you here:
      Elementary:
      Electrons, positrons, all quarks and anti-quarks
      Hadrons:
      Protons, anti-protons (these consist of two up-quarks and one down-quark / two anti-up-quarks and one anti-down-quark respectively), pions, kaons (these consist of combinations of quarks as well).
      There are some particles that we do in fact not know about yet. A few years ago, we found one of them, the Higgs boson which is the carrier of the gravitational force. Now, we are on the hunt for dark matter. There is a predicted particle we are still trying to find called the axion which could explain the phenomenon.
      Disclaimer: I am not a physicist, I just read a lot about the topic because of personal interest. I might still be very wrong.

    About 10 years ago I worked at a company that made high speed, fiberoptic magnetic field sensors. Those sensors were taken to this facility in Florida for calibration. Since it was very time consuming to do these calibrations on all new sensor designs, I built a pulsed magnetic system to test the new designs. My system achieved pulses of about 12T in a 2 cubic inch central volume and saved the company a lot of money during R&D. It is great to see this video and it brings back some good memories.

For a lot of things in experimental physics (most powerful laser, high pressure, coldest temp recorded, most precise atomic clock etc) the record holder is many orders of magnitude larger than the off the shelf stuff. You have to respect how much work is put to get from 10 T to 20 T, and from 20 T to 40 T.

    Just a detail: one needs to be careful if you want to correctly measure the temperature of a metallic plate with a thermo camera (like done in the video).
    The temperature reading does in fact change when the plate is falling even if the temperature of the plate does not change. The reason lies in the principle how the camera works. It collects heat radiation from the plate. However since the plate is also reflecting light from the surrounding like a mirror, the camera collects heat radiation from different bodies in the room as the plate falls. An example is the reflection of the hot body of his companion that you can see. In addition, different bodies need different measurement calibration values in the camera. So, it’s not so easy to determine small temperature changes and say that the reading in fact shows a small change of the plate temperature. It might be an systematic measurement error.
    Better use a thermistor or something similar.

    • @Jinjukei
      @Jinjukei ปีที่แล้ว +6

      ​@@runnergo1398 Good thought. However, the falling plate would still reflect the thermal radiation of the walls that are painted pitch black. Painting a wall in pitch black color does not prevent the wall from emitting thermal radiation. Counterintuitively it becomes a better, actually a very good thermal radiator. How well it radiates depends on its temperature (described by the law from Max Planck). In principle, as Samuel K wrote, you could cool down the room to drastically reduce the radiation (it reduces with the fourth power of the temperature, a rule that is actually used to calibrate the thermo camera). Coolinig down the whole room wouldn’t be very practical though.
      A better solution would be to paint the plate pitch black so that it does not reflect any light from the surrounding.

    Hi! At minute 9:52 you want to show the heat produced by the eddy currents with a thermocamera. You can't see that on a aluminium sheet, because that sheet is like a mirror for the ir radiations, so you will see the temperature of the objects reflected on it and not the temperature of the object itself. If you want to see the temperature of an aluminium sheet you must cover it with pvc insulating tape. It is thin enough to reach the same temperature of the aluminium sheet but it has an emission coefficent near to 0.98 so that it can emit the ir radiations and you can see them with the thermocamera.

    Hi Veritasium, at 9:39 I do not think you were measuring the sheet temperature. I have been playing with a thermal imager for a month and noticed most metal (even non polished ones) becomes mirror like in Thermal. So what you were measuring was the ceiling reflection not the sheet itself. Note: you can see the thermal reflection of the person holding the sheet at some point.
    Example of unpolished metal turning mirror in IR found at home: kitchen sink, an unpolished canadian dollar, the brushed metal of our oven, etc.

BC. The second one was the place from where magnetism took its name. There is still a city holding almost the ancient name, Manisa.

    Hey Derek, a small correction. Type 2 superconductors (i.e. all which undergo the transition with liquid nitrogen) actually don't float due to the Meissner effect, since the forces that the superconductor experiences in that case don't allow a local stable minimum (hence it can't float). The levitation effect is cause by the flux pinning, since the type 2 superconduction kind of "freeze" the spatial distribution of the external field.

      That's really interesting! I had no idea that the Meissner effect alone couldn't explain the levitation of type 2 superconductors. Could you explain a bit more about flux pinning and how it allows for levitation? From my understanding, it's the trapping of magnetic flux lines within the superconductor that prevents it from moving or falling, but I'd love to hear your perspective.

      **TLDR: Read the summary at the bottom of the text if you are in a hurry
      Type 2 superconductors are materials that can conduct electricity with zero resistance when cooled to very low temperatures, typically with liquid nitrogen. When a superconductor is cooled down, it experiences a phenomenon called the Meissner effect, which causes it to expel any external magnetic field. This effect alone, however, cannot explain why type 2 superconductors levitate when placed above a magnet.
      The levitation of type 2 superconductors is actually caused by a different phenomenon called flux pinning. This occurs when the superconductor traps the magnetic field lines of a magnet, effectively "freezing" them in place. The trapped magnetic field lines create a stable equilibrium that allows the superconductor to levitate in mid-air above the magnet.
      **So, in summary, while the Meissner effect explains why a superconductor expels magnetic fields, it is flux pinning that allows for levitation of type 2 superconductors above a magnet.**

    Strong magnets are amazing. I did my machinist/mechanical desing work career in university physics facility over 40 years. Researchers used very strong ceramic magnets for various purposes in physics experiments. I remember one time in early 90s two magnets were brought to mechanical workshop, one at a time in their boxes and the last one through different door far enough from the table where first magnet was brought.
    When the researcher guy entered the room with second magnet the first one started to move in its box and made tapping sound against box walls.
    Distance between them was about 15 metres.
    The guy warned us not to keep our ATM cards in wallet that day and reminded to leave wristwatches in cupboard.
    It was quite a job to measure the magnets diameter, the measuring caliper was like glued to the magnet.
