Magnet moves water (diamagnetism)

[TheKingPhisher]

I didn't say it was a trick. I was only suggesting that what is perceived could be due to the movement of the metal bowl if the bowl was magnetic. A magnet doesn't need to touch a metal surface to move it, basic logic and commonsense there for a strong magnetic field coud EASILY move a magnetic metallic bowl if the bowl wasn't clamped down tightly.

Now as far as moving water, I doubt a regular magnet is powerful enough to move water.

[TheKingPhisher]

The magnet is causing the metal bowl to move which results in the water moving. That magnet is hardly strong enough to make water move.

[electricpete1]

@TheKingPhisher

Nothing touches the bowl. There is no trick. The experiment is set up so that the very small movement of water is visually detectable.

[MrAbbusai]

ohh by this can we stop tsunami by using very powerful magnet??

[jaghatarkebab]

@MrAbbusai Yeah, absolutly, but it must be, indeed, a VERY powerful magnet and big aswell.

[oaney]

Is the magnet deflecting the water, or the electromagnetic radiation (photons) from the light fixture?

[electricpete1]

@oaney - it is deflecting the water.

[electricpete1]

@oaney - it's deflecting the water.

O estudo da indução magnética é maravilhosa!

A aplicação de indução simples em agua irá proporcionar o resultado mostrado.

Porém, se utilizares imãs permanentes não de neodímio e sim de ferrite, com certeza irá obter resultados diferentes deste.

A questão deixa de permear essa situação e a susceptibilidade magnética mudando, muda o resultado.

Assim, a indução magnetica da áqua deve ser especificada para que se entenda o que esta se criticando como não existente.

Ciência é isso, depende do angulo

Diamagnetic properties of water...?

That's interesting, remember Stan Meyer anyone?

He was able to utilize a property of water that no one knew existed, in that it was zero point, he was poisoned though.

[frankensteinmoneymac]

I would like to see what would happen if you took your stack of magnets and attached them (securely) to the head of a high RPM drill, Then placed the spinning magnets under the bowel. I am guessing the effect would be much more dramatic, and may possibly agitate the water continuously while the drill ran underneath it. It would be a fun exp. to try!

[L00NGB00W]

A nice demo thanks!

This gives me some ideas.

[victortarre]

no doubt thats cgi, you're not fooling me eletricpete1

[mathult]

Jeez thats not only cgi, its poor cgi! PLEASE!

[frankensteinmoneymac]

@mathult AND victortarre You guys aren't serious are you? You mean you couldn't have bothered to do 5 minutes of research to discover that water IS indeed diamagnetic and that this (or slight variations of it) are performed all the time...usually by school children in science fairs! I guess it just shows how far our science education has plummeted! But really, that you didnt even bother to research this before sticking your foot in your mouth....Pathetic!

[kille6525]

now it the water purified with no metals in it? because tap water will have some iron or other kids of metals in it.

[intj123]

i think you need very strong magnets for this experiment, water only holds that slight diamagnetic property right?

[electricpete1]

Your are absolutely correct. The effect is small even with these powerful Neodymium magnets. Looking at reflection in a very shallow pool of water is a trick to make a very small effect visible to the naked eye.

[TheriseofL]

how big is your magnet? It didn't work when i tried, or is it just fake?

[electricpete1]

It is a stack of Neodimium 1"x1"x0.5" magnets - somewhere from two high (1" tall) and 4 high (2" tall). Ceramic magnets won't work. Also important to get a very thin layer of water and magnets very close to the bottom of the bowl.

[TheriseofL]

I have a 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 inch Neodymium magnet cube, 4 actually, if i need them all, but i couldn't get the water to move at all, are those strong enough magnets?

[TheBrymanShow]

is the bowl metal?

[electricpete1]

Nope. Just a normal bowl (ceramic I think)

[Kaasperav]

Water is by nature charged so its beign repelledd

[blkhackr]

@TheBrymanShow even if the bowl was metal the same effect would be visible, the magnet may attract to the bowl though causing a large distortion in th water when the magnets hit stuck onto the bottom

[bummercucumber]

Awesome.

[intj123]

i saw this on a website, nicely demonstrated.

[Arghira]

or nice fake

[sasamuraki]

cool

[nhojmabon]

That was awesome

[sn1pe352]

Very good stuff, I would like to test the difference between fresh virgin spring water and stagnant water

[zaphraud]

"stagnant" water is full of all kinds of organics that are the result of the processes of life, so you might want to test several sources of the stuff if you decide to do this.

Spring water usually contains a variety of ions, so again, multiple sources.

Probably should use distilled water (which tastes nasty because it lacks dissolved water) as a control substance.

[heroineworshipper]

Better you drinking that water than us.

[gurser]

cool, thanks

[nauxolo]

Just curious, what is the strength of this particular magnet you used?

[johnnytheprick]

NAUXOLO,

the magnet strength was 24 micronewtons 4 that example. im hoping to increase that to about 48 with govt approval.

thanx 4 your support.

[rebelousthing]

what type of magnet did you use??

[grzana2429]

Neodymium.... watch carefully :)

[fabio122123]

hey geuss what

if you already knew that then why did you watch it

great video

[netstepb]

Cool !!

[espido]

Great , i got magnets i will try : ) thanks

[datlildodge]

i knew that

[photonisttt]

great knowledge. thank you

[shipmaster3]

i knew this since 2005 show us something new

[blqkvo]

damn it why do u pp ALWAYS put such gay music or something super hard core for something as innocent as a demonstration of the diamagnetic properties of H2O?? gj with the exp...

[funkaeb]

thanx

[iOriginal123]

are those crayola boxes :D

[neoartifact]

lol the music is from ulead video studio..

[jimmimak]

lol

[pappthomas]

Did you use a metal or glass bowl?

[DeltaWound]

It would have to be glass/plastic. A ferrous metal would redirect/shield the magnet's field.

[adolescentLady]

im about to ask the same question..

[showkillaz]

Great job on your first video. It was interesting and scientific

(\ _ /)

(*^º^*)

(m)-(m)

[gdbernoli]

Congratulations. An excellent video because is simple, but is real and simple. Thanks.

[JLeefers]

I am pretty sure what you are seeing is the effect of eddy currents. Waters with impurities in it make it a conductor, the effect you are showing should be greater if you add some salt to the water.

[redhotspeakers]

I've had eczema for 5 years on my chest and back. The doctors had no cure for it only suggestions to control it. 2 weeks ago, I bought a water purification system for better water quality. The filter included magnetic media. I also bought a blender with magnets and ionic minerals. Without meaning to, I cured my 5 years of eczema in 3 days. I wasn't expecting this, I just wanted better water. The magnets charge the ions in the water and then are able to enter cells and bind and remove toxins.

[yeltnebentley]

ummmm.....say again?

[goodfingerz]

Viktor Schauberger is supposed to have harnessed the diamagnetic effect with a flying saucer like device. He claimed water in cycloid motion opposed gravity. He built self energizing vaneless tubines. Water contracts at a critical temperature drop. as water falls and speeds up it cools as heat is converted into motion. same as the venturi effect. read the book by Olaf Alexandersson

[pkmonomtl]

while I'm not 100% sure, I think this effect may be caused by the fact that water, H2O, is a polar molecule, as in it has a positive end and a negative end.

a powerful enough magnet could effect the water molecules, hence the effect that is shown

[NEON271156]

a classic sciance experiment is: take a comb/brush/balloon, indeed anything to gather some static electric, rub balloon against your jumper _get good & charged, turn on your tap in the kitchen sink untill it just runs, not flowwing hard, now take your charged static balloon and put up close to water flow.... the water flow bends dont it....

[poopmaster07]

lol this song is in one of my videos lmao!

[ManusFrigus]

how strong is ur magnet approx?

[Pollymorphic]

I have seen the burning water vid and wondered what would happen if you 'charged' the water and then used a magnet on it.

[VE7RJ]

Could you reproduce this effect in a clear plastic bowl? -Jim-

[Colombian459]

im confused-

y did u use a ruler to place the magnet on top?

[Colombian459]

lol i just ordered one-

im not sure about the safety lol-

i just wanted to try this experiment- and now im scared lol.

[goodfingerz]

This is why some scientist think tornadoes may have some antigravity effects not just mechanical forces

[Builderboy2005]

Um... this is magnetism, not antigravity...

[goodfingerz]

anything that negates the affect of gravity on an object is antigravity, yes? I believe gravity may be not a force but a metaphor describing an effect of???. E=Mc^2 doesnt just mean matter can be destroyed becoming energy. It teases that matter is a consequential effect of light upon space (all energy is light) everything is software

[Builderboy2005]

So let me get this straight...

A helicopter uses antigravity?

[goodfingerz]

Right on! My bias is that I am tending to hold the view that instead of gravity or antigravity being a force that they are a result of something. so if a helicopter uses air pressure to cancel out what is called gravity then it is anti or counter to gravity but i didn't mean it in the sense of being a force in itself as is commonly held. balls of light guy postulates that gravity is a vector of the electromagnetic field in a unique proof.

[atrumblood]

Ok, I don't know if your trying to be a smart ass or not. But let me enlighten you a little. A helicopter is not really defying gravity. The downward force created by the spinning propellar pushes the helicopter up. Just to make this even more simple. Say you had a toy helicopter on a weight scale. the toy helicopter weighs 2 pounds, now if you make the helicopter hover over that scale so that it is just barely not touching. the weight remains 2 pounds even though its not touching the scale.

[acsusa]

Could this happen because of the impurity of the water? (ie, minerals in the water). Have you tried distilled (pure) water? Thanks.

[fundash]

how can I do this at home,I already have the magnets just not sure what to do to the water.

[electricpete1]

Best way is a bowl (or plate) with a flat bottom and a only a small amount of water (perhaps 1/16" deep). If it's too deep, you won't be able to see the effect as well. Also best if you can support the bowl so there is only a tiny clerance between bottom of bowl and top of the magnets. If you use something like playing cards or index cards you can add/remove in tiny increments to get the exact height you want.

[magicdosh]

You can get these magnets FREE, too- just get some old hard drives- there's usually two neo. magnets in each- enjoy!

Oh BTW- do watch out if you're playing with two of these- you can get a nasty pinch. Bigger versions of these magnets have broken people's fingers!

[Colombian459]

OMG- i just ordered one-

im scared now!

cause it says it can pull about 25 pounds-

[VideoJunkei]

water warping-cool!

[mtpoor]

Fucking Easy and F A K E!

[electricpete1]

No, not fake. It's based on science (the diamagnetic property of water) and you can replicate it for yourself. You can pick up a paiR of 1"*1"*1/2" neodymium magnets like this for around $10 on e-bay (just read up a little bit on safety precautions before you handle them).

[NikoClemente]

you close minded, also a totally idiot.

[hutzelmann]

u really do suck ...

[Colombian459]

rele cool man.

[jmbsc2]

kieep on going

[silverphil07]

Excellent demonstration. Some people who made videos of diamagnatism dont know what it is. It is good to see a correct and genuinely clever one every now and then.

[stayelusive]

lmao @ music. Good experiment.

[drnumlock]

Nice video. Exciting science.

I still miss the science category on Youtube.

[tuohari]

Nice video.

[batmanthecool]

great first video, interesting, nice music 5/5

[wbeaty]

Cool! Back in ?1996? one of the guys on my forum discovered this (after we'd all been trying to deflect thin water streams with NIB disks.) It was posted online, and the "meme" has been spreading since then. Also try shining sunlight on the water, and watch for the bright spot caused by the slight concavity above the magnet. Or try: construct letters using lots of tiny magnets.

[funkboxing]

Good video. That must be one helluva magnet under there.

[Phonologie]

very low power

[delapeyre]

Yes a Utube virgin. lol nice one

[hboy007]

yeah nice. camerawork is ok, too

[davidrojaselbirt]

Very nice! I like it. Do you have more like this?

I'm putting it on my blog if that's ok with you.

[Kalital]

nice
