    1) OK, so I didn't know there was such a thing as "absolute hot" or Plank Temperature. Interesting!
    2) There's a typo in the footnote. It should read "trippple point of watter".

      Just an FYI, there is a maximum temperature.
      The first one is when an atom can't hold electrons on, we call that a plasma, but we usually consider this fine.
      The next is when the atom shakes so hard, there is so much energy in it, that the atoms fall apart into a proton-neutron 'soup'. This is a real absolute limit (they aren't atoms anymore).
      The next after *that* is when so much energy is in there, the protons and neutrons fall apart into just quarks, making a quark-gluon plasma.

      Vsauce has a video called “How hot can it get?” in which he talks about an absolute hot. There’s actually a temperature, called the Planck temperature, at which the wavelength of the thermal radiation an object gives off would be shorter than the Planck length. So there has to be an absolute hot. If i recall correctly, tho, this would take more energy than we know of in the universe, and of course the atoms would dissolve into their fundamental particles at energies like that.

    • @ericvilas
      @ericvilas 4 ปีที่แล้ว +78

      The temperature actually depends on the kinetic energy of the jiggle, not just the speed. If the atoms were to jiggle at the speed of light then the energy (and thus the temperature) would become infinite.
      We can keep on increasing the temperature because we can get the atoms to jiggle closer and closer to the speed of light, but never reaching it.
      Also quantum mechanics does put a limit on maximum temperature but that's a different matter

      When you wear glasses and the sun would be sort of behind you, the light would reflect and you couldn't see, because you would be blinded sort of. (English isnt my first language, I am sorry)
      Therefore to prevent this glasses are often coated several layers of some material, which prevents this.
      In german we call it "entspiegelte Brillengläser"
      You can notice this trough a slight green glare or reflection from the glasses.
      In my physics A-level we learned sort of how this worked. The layer reflects some light and lets the other pass trough. The light wich passed trough will be reflected in the layer below and then shine out of the glasses again. The trick is to make the layer just thick enough so that the lightwave is shifted half a wavelength and therefore cancels out with the light which reflected at the first layer.
      This is of course a simplification, but it works and can eaven be used to explain the effect I mentioned. Because the light is refracted at an angle you can calculate how thick the layer should be, but when you put the glasses into water the angle changes, since it is dependent on the lightspeeds of the two media.
      So the angle changes, therefore the way and length the light passes trough the layer changes. Therefore now the orange wavelengths who cancelled out earlier are now visible and the green is not visible anymore.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, please but I don't think you can increase temperature indefinitely. If the hotter body emits shorter electromagnetic waves then you hit the Planck length of the wavelength at some point or the Planck time of the wave period. And that limits the maximum energy of the body.

      It is also possible that the black body radiation equation we know and love is incomplete..A bit like the Newtonian physics before Einstein. It is a good enough approximation at low temperatures ("low" compared to Plank temperature, that is), but may need a correction at higher temperatures, sort of like Newton's equations need a correction at relativistic speeds. Based on what the correction is, the "absolute hot" may be nowhere near the Plank temperature. It may even be infinity.

      One of the only reasons people hate Fahrenheit is because while in Celsius water freezes at 0, it freezes at 32 in Fahrenheit. However, if we were to just adjust the Fahrenheit scale by lowering it by 32 degrees, which we already do when we convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius, then that eliminates the issue most people have with Fahrenheit, giving us an Improved Fahrenheit scale where water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 180 degrees. And since 9 Fahrenheit degrees are equal to 5 Celsius degrees, with this Improved Fahrenheit scale we can get finer temperature gradients like the regular Fahrenheit scale with a more consistent freezing and boiling point like Celsius.

    Steve, Another interesting and easy way to extrapolate to absolute zero is to measure the electrical resistance of metals, which is generally proportional to absolute temperature. For ductile metals without many defects, like platinum, the linearity is rather good. They are about as "ideal" resistors as gases are "ideal" gases. So, if I put a platinum wire in ice water (in fact, I can use a platinum RTD made for this purpose) I measure 100.0 ohms, and if I then place it in boiling water I get 138.5 ohms. That gives an absolute zero of -100*100/(138.5-100) = -259.7C Not great, but as good or better than trying to measure gas volume ratios!

    Great example of a basic yet fundamental experiment. I do think it would've been nice to at least mention the Rankine scale, like at least acknowledge it exists XD

      Agreed! That's why years that are multiples of 10 are the last year of a decade, not the first year of the next decade. The 21st century didn't start until 2001.

    0:26 Don't know if this a legitimate way to think of temperature but I think of temperature as a measure of how much the molecules' vibration rates vary, which they must do - they don't all vibrate at exactly perfectly the same EM frequency all the time, they wobble slightly about a certain value. But if there is absolutely no variation in frequency, they can stay completely and perfectly locked together, and of course, the 'perfection' of vibration can't be any more perfect then 0. So hence, absolute zero.

    Steve, your lab experiment was successful as long as you gained a greater understanding of the relationship of the variables in the equations. Even though many scientific discoveries have already been made, practical learning creates a better understanding. I love your curiosity for science!

    Interesting conversation with one of my neighbours a few weeks ago. He said "You're like that Steve Mould guy on TH-cam". I asked what he meant. He replied " you're smart enough to figure shi...ahh.....stuff out for yourself and you're always happy to share what you learn and know but you do it in a way that's easy to understand". I said "Yeah, Steve is excellent like that." 👍😉 Thanks Steve. Cheers mate.
