This is hands down the best explanation of quantum locking I've seen - I've probably watched close to 100 videos on the subject now and this one absolutely takes the cake
From some of my digging, most of these experiments will use a type 2 semiconductor as these are made to allow some field passage, ie, they are built with flux tubes/passages.
It’s interesting how the diagrams showing the flow of magnetic energy through the flux points on the object look a lot like prison bars or fencing. This is just a random thought.
Fantastic explanation sir, I searched lot of video clips but I couldn't find such a thing like you. Do these kind of videos with animated sir we support you thank you!
Think of it as a piece of paper tacked to the wall. It doesn't require any effort to leave the paper where it is. However, if you try to slide the paper along the wall (perpendicular to the thumb tacks), it takes a lot of effort because the tacks (flux tubes) want to stay where they are. In order to slide the paper relative to the tacks you have to make new holes by either tearing the paper or removing the tacks and re-pinning the paper, either of which require more effort than leaving it alone in the first place.
I don't think the direction matters. I've seen videos where they run a superconductor along a magnetic track both above and below it (one floating one suspended).
i cant believe nobody is watching this demo good work it is helping my designs now do you happen to know the element for the superconductor from what im seeing on you tube they took off the early vid where the have mention the specific element and a second essential element you failed to mention in this video also it seems diffent elements have different affects-- but if you wish you may contact me on a more private channel then on the comments section on you tube we can maybe trade info (FYI im not a mega corp just a curious individual with plans for the future)----Manny
Energy does not flow inside wires. It flows along the outside of the wires. You do need wires to encourage the transmission of energy. They help to channel energy to minimize waste.
1:33 "this creates a pocket in the magnetic field", but why the pocket is stable enough to hold the super conductor? both pulls and push against gravity? the other video shows the super conductor can flow both above and below the magnet.
+nicholasxuu Think of the pocket as more of a low energy state. It would require more energy to move the super conductor (thanks to flux tubes. 1:55) and realign the magnetic field than to simply let the superconductor stay where it is at (1:47). It works both above and below the magnet so long as the energy required to move from this low energy state is greater than the force of gravity (ie. the superconductor is kept cold).
i'm a bit confused about this, too. shouldn't the little "holes" be perfectly equally spread around the superconductor to not make it move? How come all of these "holes" are holding it? i can't imagine they are all perfectly the same size.
@@Flaschenteufel Imagine a disc with randomly punched holes. Now, pass 10 threads through each hole, and tie them to the roof and floor at random as well. The disc would stay pretty much inmovable in the air.
I used Adobe Illustrator for the drawing, Adobe After Effects for the graphics motion, and a bit of Adobe Premiere Pro for editing it all together with sound.
I agree that quantum is overused a lot, but I think it is appropriate in this case. Quantum locking IS the main physical phenomenon at work here. Quantum or 'quantizing' something just refers to limiting it to discrete values, which is what the superconductor is doing to the magnetic field here.
Not 100% sure myself. Any real scientists feel free to correct me. My guess would be because when you quantize a property (quantum refers to the minimal amount of any physical property involved in an interaction) you are restricting a variable to discrete values. Example: When we say "Whole numbers" we are simply quantizing our 'count' to multiples of 1 (1,2,3,4,etc). In this system of values there is no grey area, such as 1.2854. Similarly, in quantum levitation, we are aligning the magnetic fields to fixed positions. They can no longer go anywhere they want through the medium. They grey area has been neutralized.
I thank you for your well-thought comment. I really acknowledge your words and I think you have a point here. As a student of physics, I would guess it is called quantum levitation because by classical laws of physics this phenomenon just cannot happen; it is IMPOSSIBLE. (I'm sorry for caps lock, but I think this is important) Anyway, we can watch the phenomenon, which must lead to the conclusion that quantum mechanics is a real thing. Nowadays this does not seem questionable, but back in the days, even Einstein had a hard time accepting it. I hope my English is okay and my response is helpful. I know your comment is quite old, but maybe the subject is still interesting for you. I hope you have a good day.

The whole video is full of false information and misleading explanations. You use the words "charges", "electric fields", "magnetic fields", "electromagnetic waves" and "energy flux" interchangeably and in a way that makes no physical sense. This video could be harmful to the people that are interested in learning how these fenomena actually work. You didn't even bother writing the name of Meissner correctly. You should delete this.
Finally an explanation, everytime I see videos showing it but noone is explaining it. Thank you
This was a great video. Very informative and to the point. The visuals helped a ton too. Thanks for making this!
love how straight to the point it is.
it was awsome

Thanks Christopher. Great explanation. I'm really excited about where this research can lead.

waiting for more videos with the simplest and shortest explanation👌👌

Why waste a lot of words, if so few can explain so much. Thanks a lot.
That's how they built the pyramid
Damn, maybe
Nice and to the point. You need more subscribers for your style of explaining concepts. Keep going !!!
Fantastic explanation sir, I searched lot of video clips but I couldn't find such a thing like you. Do these kind of videos with animated sir we support you thank you!
Awesome video! Out of curiosity - how did you make these cool explainer animations? I'd love to learn how
Very nice explained
The idea of quantum locking should be included in this video. The use of the force due to gravity seems to lead one astray from this concept.
Great video, I hope you make more of those!
Still don't get it. In what way does the super conductor play a role if it needs to be so thin that the charges flow through it?
Think of it as a piece of paper tacked to the wall. It doesn't require any effort to leave the paper where it is. However, if you try to slide the paper along the wall (perpendicular to the thumb tacks), it takes a lot of effort because the tacks (flux tubes) want to stay where they are. In order to slide the paper relative to the tacks you have to make new holes by either tearing the paper or removing the tacks and re-pinning the paper, either of which require more effort than leaving it alone in the first place.
very well explained thank you!!
Thank you for this great explanation!
masha'Allah..good explanation
Wow....that was easy to understand.Thank you 😊
Does the direction of the magnetic field matter (is the effect exactly the same if the magnet is placed upside down)?
Thanks for video
I don't think the direction matters. I've seen videos where they run a superconductor along a magnetic track both above and below it (one floating one suspended).

typically a sapphire disc is used rather than an element.
Energy does not flow inside wires. It flows along the outside of the wires. You do need wires to encourage the transmission of energy. They help to channel energy to minimize waste.
*What the fuck?* Electricity does not flow along the *outside* of a wire
@@m07z It's called the skin effect: electric current flow concentrates on the external part of the wire, the "skin".
Keep up the good word, its much appreciated

@@elsurexiste that doesn't makes any sense to me
by which software this video is made?? please answer.it will be helpful for me.
i am an educator

You are great just missing meissner effect not meissner effect
Fantastic thank you
More of these!
... almost.. to full explanation need to be added few words more about effect .....
explained nicely
Please don’t use the word quantum cuz it has nothing to do with quantum physics . People put quantum infront of stuff and expect it to mean something

When he said i made a 3 minute video, he meant it
Thank u
why is this called quantum. It has nothing to do with quantum
Not 100% sure myself. Any real scientists feel free to correct me.

There is no Quantum Levitation without the "magnet". Magnets and charge are a quantum property.
I did some reading myself and it seems that the energy it takes for the field to penetrate a superconductor is itself quantized. Hence the naming....
Underated Channel.

SKYHOOK!
love this video. thank you
Hahaha "sky hook" 😂😂😂
Wow, this is confusing. xD
Engineering joke👍🏼😄🤣
so its like a plate(is the conductor) with 4 pins(is the magnetic field ) trough it that holds it in place.
