      To answer it though, the Hypervision HPV-X reaches 10 million fps and there are videos on YT of it, I imagine it's super expensive and exclusive though, and typically the higher fps you get the more resolution and other things you have to cut (most HPV-X videos were captured in black & white for example). But there's also a video on Slow Mo Guys' channel called "Filming the Speed of Light at 10 trillion FPS", I don't remember enough of it though to explain.

    For what it's worth, the blue-purple color of the arcs comes from Nitrogen being ionized, one of the videos showing this is by user jdflyback, who custom made Nitrogen-filled discharge tubes, showing the exact same blueish hue. My guess would be that oxygen gets shredded apart, forming the "trail" for the discharge to follow, while the ionization of Nitrogen, combined with black-body radiation from electrons returning to their normal electrical potent is what causes the color itself. If I were to guess the reason for the branching, I'd wager there's more oxygen around the areas the discharge is gonna follow, cause electricity does break apart oxygen into positively charged ions, making it easier for electricity to follow the path of least resistance

      I think an important thing to note is that air temperature is just an average.
      Some molecules will have slightly more energy than others at any given point in time, they're random distances apart, traveling in random directions, the spark rips molecules apart and sends the atoms flying in random directions (effectively detonating them,) etc
      At any given point in time, some paths are going to have less resistance than others, so you end up getting Brownian/chaotic paths through it

      The Oxygen is being ionised too although it is hard to distinguish the light-blue plasma of the Oxygen from the violet-blue colour of Nitrogen by eye. Point a spectrometer at it however and you would clearly be able to identify both because each is actually a series of bands of emission unique to each molecule. Our eyes can't do it as we perceive colour based on the total stimulation received by each of our three types of cones so we cannot identify the individual bands and the overall effect is very similar with our eyes limited sampling method.

    As with lightening, the electricity doesn’t know beforehand where it will go. As the charge cloud builds up, it will generally try and take the path of least resistance; as it spreads further, it can start to cause charges of the opposite polarity to extend towards it. When it is eventually able to form a channel, the charges in the paths that didn’t connect will drain through the connection also; with lightening, what you see sometimes is multiple flashes as they drain.

    I would think filming electricity with the super slow motion should be easy because the lighting is always the hard part when you go up in frames, but electricity creates or at least redirects photons, meaning it creates its own lighting.

  • @x155342
    @x155342 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi, I'm an electrician. In regards to Ionization, in general, it occurs whenever sufficiently energetic charged particles or radiant energy travels through gases, liquids, or solids. Electricity breaks down molecules of Nitrogen and oxygen into positively charged ions, thus making it easier for electricity to follow the path of least resistance. Now, the branching of the arcs from the tesla coil, I suspect that the electricity before reaching the screw breaks down the air (Nitrogen and Oxygen) first then when it is close enough to contact, it jumps directly to the metal. The blue/purple ish colour, I guess that would be thanks to Nitrogen particles being taken apart.

  • @robertlapointe4093
    @robertlapointe4093 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    For what it's worth, air ionization to generate sparks starts with existing ions, from cosmic ray and radioactive element decays (average about 1 ion pair per cubic centimeter) being accelerated by the electric field to energies high enough to ionize more air molecules via collision. The field strength is highest at the tips of pointed electrodes and the advancing point of the corona discharge, so the path the spark takes is basically a random walk along the electric field lines. This is seen more clearly in lightning flashes, where the distances involved allow better temporal resolution. The Slow-Mo Guys did a nice video recording lightning in Singapore: th-cam.com/video/qQKhIK4pvYo/w-d-xo.html .

    I think at this level you are generating a plasma. The electrons flow freely, you are putting a lot of energy in to generate a plasma channel, you see electrons being pushed from one side and pulled from another, it branches as more energy passes through established channels, much like an ant colony, if two of these branches meet inevitably, then a plasma channel which allows direct conduction is established, this will move because the plasma will rise but new channels will form and expand upwards as new molecules are drawn in and ionized, I'd expect that at these energy levels both oxygen and nitrogen would ionize.

  • @ElIsraelJijijiji

    0:07 it has to do with the frequency, as far as I know Tesla coils in the range of 100kHz to 300kHz tend to have those branched arcs, while 400 to 500kHz have a more swordy shape, and higher frequencies like Megahertz tend to curve like styropyro's flame

  • @conorstewart2214
    @conorstewart2214 ปีที่แล้ว

    On the graph you showed, oxygen isn’t much lower than nitrogen, so I would be surprised if it was just oxygen that got ionised. However high voltage arcs produce ozone, which is just 3 oxygen molecules, so the oxygen is definitely being ionised, nitrogen is pretty inert though so maybe it ionises and then just go back to N2. O2 is bonded using 2 bonds, N2 is bonded using 3, so that may also make it more difficult to break up the nitrogen into individual atoms and then ionise it.
    The way I have seen lightning described before and why it forks is that the high voltage is essentially looking for a path to ground, you end up with individual arcs that are all going to lower potentials but then one hits ground and the bulk of the electricity then gets forced down that arc straight to ground and the other arcs die off essentially. You can see that with how the arcs fork anyway but also with the screwdriver and the Tesla coil, you can see the two arcs coming out of the screwdriver and coil and they fork then you get that corona discharge between the arcs, then when a path is established all the electricity goes through that path and the other arcs die off since there is a better path to ground or to a lower potential.

    Did you just say "one Hert"? - The singular of Hertz is still Hertz.. 😜
    The flaw in the theory of the sparks in the Marx generator going off one after the other is thinking of electricity "flowing" like water, but that's not the case, it's more like a pipe with incompressible fluid and no air, like a break line, the electrons just move a step simultaneously. At least with AC. You won't have any delay when switching on your ceiling lamp, the moment the gap in the circuit of a light switch is closed, the lamp is going to glow. With DC you would have a delay and sort of a cascade effect; like with the old Christmas tree fairy lights with bulbs.

    just before 8:19 you talked about arcs sort of pushing their way through oxygen. I wonder if you could look at the colour spectrum of the arc to tell if that's the case. Can you form an arc in pure nitrogen vs pure oxygen and see the spectral differences? Perhaps in other gasses too. Sort of in the same way the colour of a sodium lamp is that colour because of the sodium. Maybe in air you'll see the spectral peaks of each element in the air in the colour of the arc. Arcs in air look mostly blue to the eye and the reason the sky is blue is down Nitrogen. Perhaps those are related. Perhaps a physicist can explain it.

  • @Elemental-IT
    @Elemental-IT ปีที่แล้ว

    The only problem with your theory is that the arc coming from the screwdriver is ground. This is showing that electricity does not flow from positive to negative, but from greater potential to lesser potential. The imbalance takes the fastest path the equilibrium. Which also means that ground is ionizing the air too.
    So, in your theory, ground would have to be stripping molecules of electrons ahead of the arc.
    I think more likely, the electrical connection happens, and the ionization follows - and the strength of the arc is weakest just before contact to ground - which makes that ionize slower than the rest.
    Also, near the end, they showed that all gaps hit at once, which follows if the flow is not from positive to negative, but from greater to lesser potential.
    In a word, kids.... ground can kill you too.

    just gonna point out here electrons dont actually orbit, they're more quantum, but the electron orbit model, while it's wrong, it still is a model.

    The arc happens because:
    One electron leaves the atom due to high voltage. Then it bumps into another atom which it's loosing another electron. This way electrons grow up exponentially. When this path reaches the other side a spark happens (basically what we see in slow motion). The path i talked about visually its like waffle cone with ice cream on top 😉

      Okay? And this had what to do with what he was proposing? He wasn't talking about why acrs happen, he was theorizing specifically why the arcs branch the way they do and he theorized it could be because the lower percentage of oxygen in the air making certain paths more desirable based on inconsistent mixing of the various elements that comprise air. Regardless of whether his supposition holds ground it wasn't a discussion on why arcs happen, but why they branch out like they do.

      @@DreadKyller hmmm! Okay. I thought we talking about how an arc starts. And not why it is taking that path. Okay then my explanation was pointless!
