OK, now that I've seen the potassium reaction discussion, I'm thinking that the central needle will hold a gob (1 gob = 0.25 chunks :) of K metal, with the intention to hold it a) somewhat steady, and b) under the water's surface. That does mean the rickety contraption won't be involved in the measurement, just the mechanical side of things.
With a nice clear jug, distilled water, and a decent high-speed camera, you might get to see the "colour of K gas"... or a busted jug and KOH everywhere!!
Thank you TF. Don't stop. Don't stop the reasoned vitriol, don't stop the measured criticisms, and don't stop the explanations and demonstrations of what knowledge actually means and is. Thanx.
Here's my guess: Na, K & NaK have different conductivities. The falling needle will both start a reaction between Na & K and also start the timer (with split second accuracy). The change in conductivity over time will be measured & used to estimate the reaction rate of Na + K -> NaK but with greater accuracy than has been done heretofore.
But to hedge my bets I also have $10 that says I'm wrong.
Lets see here. A heavy plastic jub, nitting needles. I guess it is a chemical experiment of somesort. maybe it has something to do with the potassium that you are experimenting with.
How the hell does an experiment like you were doing cost one hundred thousand dollars !?!? ( not including materials ) ... where does all the money go!?
My guess is that it is used for some sort of electrolysis reaction, the needles on the left and right are the anode and cathode, the needle in the middle has me a bit stumped... maybe its for measuring some parameter as the reaction goes on such as the change in pH? anyway that's my guess... can't wait for the answer
It must be nice to hand hundreds of thousands of dollars to throw around on little science fair projects that are discovering nothing new. I wish I were as wealthy as you Thunderbag$
As should be obvious to even the most dimwitted individual, this apparatus is designed to conclusively and unambiguously prove the existence of the Christian God.
I suspect we'll be able to measure accurately the rate of amalgamation (wrong word, I know) of the Na with the K. But then, a digital timer would be simpler...and I think I detected one in the original NaK video.
So maybe the rate of the reaction NaK has with a PTFE needle with a known mass-force acting on it.
Of course, I know it's "Thunderf00t's Frog" (like Schrödinger's Cat, but messier and less disturbing to precocious 5-year-olds).
@VinylMechanic Maybe something happens at a level where a digital timing device isn't accurate, and Tf00t is going to use gravity to time it. Air resistance could still get in the way though, even with a lance-thing like that.
@TheReaverOfDarkness I agree - it would be helpful to know how (or if) that central needle is going to be held in place. As it is now, the friction with the cross-piece seems to be awfully indeterminate... The air resistance of the cross-piece would also be pretty hard to determine in advance - as would precise "triggering" of the wooden pawl and fabric hinge. So maybe I'm on the wrong track? If the triggering, the falling, and the friction coefficients are irrelevant.... Hmmm. More thinking!
@VinylMechanic There could be something here that's throwing us off. If we can't think of a solution involving that which seems most important, we might try ignoring the obvious and seeking that which is less noticeable for answers.
Or it has something to do with a chemical reaction you expect the needle to have in the fluid.
OR you want to measure a property of the fluid, for example the viscosity of the fluid. The last would be very difficult, because there are too many variables to give a good answer to it.
So probably some kind of chemical reaction probably.
it is a safety trigger, that you can attach a string or cable to so you can release from behind a shield. Perhaps you intend to place that index card there and pile some potassium on top so that when you trigger, the element is pushed into the container along with the metal of the needle. To melt it? Fuse it? Perhaps create an alloy, or increase the energy level of the reaction...
I knew what Picard was going to say at the very begining of this video before he even said it because i recognized that particular moment in star trek by his expression alone.
measure how fast the knitting pin is eaten/dissolved in some rather nasty reaction expectedly consisting of sodium and or potassium .. thereby requiring a safe triggering mechanism. Or maybe the time for the pin to sink through some pending reaction can give us a hint of the density or other properties before the reaction completes and forms an alloy.. Looking forward to see what the experiment shows
Hmm... Wood Knitting needles. A device with three states that can presumably be operated remotely. Possible a way to break a vial of some reactive metal? I've seen this quite a few times though. Wood has well known buoyancy... did you make some kind of way to measure specific gravity?

@redwolf602 Explain your consciousness to me before you existed. If your parents had never made the choice to give birth to you what would you experience or where would you be? If you wake up after millions of years what do you think your body would look like and what if you died in an explosion?
@JuicyChimp Explain your consciousness to me before you existed. If your parents had never made the choice to give birth to you what would you experience or where would you be? If you wake up after millions of years what do you think your body would look like and what if you died in an explosion?
@JuicyChimp Then give me proof, and by that I don't mean biblical or religious rhetoric, of what happens when we die. Time and time again the concept of the afterlife is debunked. thousands of people die every day and you would think that at least one of them would be allowed to come back for a moment and say 'Yeah, this shit be real'. And the reason we perceive the passage of time, even after sleep, is because our brain is still functional, something that STOPS happening after death
@JuicyChimp Aside from your bad taste in pedophilia jokes atheists, while enjoying a good drink from time to time, use logic and rationale more often, per individual, than the collective whole of religious followers combined. And as for 'shit dunking' I'm going to assume that it is a favored past time of yours as I have never personally heard of this, nor do I care to, so have fun with that
My first impulse is to say that it's an apparatus for testing the effects of an impact disturbing a liquid. You've got a needle that free falls into a jug -- the jug indicates to me that either you're planning on containing a liquid, or something that's going to react violently. (Though not so violently that it would destroy a jug.) Maybe you're planning on showing us a reaction that you don't want to set off with your fingers?
It seems like a really archaic setup for demonstrating the concept of seeding a crystal structure. You place a seed crystal onto the tip of the knitting needle and have it be carefully dipped into a liquid which can crystallize (such as silicon, except not in this case or you would melt your whole setup) and have the seed crystal generate a crystal structure from the liquid material inside the cup. However, my idea seems impractical considering how simple the setup is -> kitten execution.
@JuicyChimp I believe the Vatican already melded science with God and no new answers came about, only the same old answers from both sides being put together. Take out the 'God' aspect of anything and you're left to find the answers on your own in a logical and rational manner. If more people did this we might just get the answers we seek a bit more quickly
If he wants to know the unkown all he has to do is take what McKenna called "the heroic dose" not been there yet but i have heard quite a few storys about it^^
@JuicyChimp we did land on the moon. did you know it costs billions to put someone into space? Should we do that for fifteen minutes to entertain bafoons who come up with conspiracy theory instead? That money is better used elsewhere for something we haven't done. Next you will say the space shuttle is fallacy. Obviously, if we can do that, we were likely on the moon.
The principle features are, as you said, that the jug has good optical properties, as well as the fact that the apparatus has three states: a potential energy state, a kinetic energy state, and and new potential energy state created from the release of energy involved with operating the hinge.
Maybe the density or viscosity of a substance could be measured, or it could be energy related...?
@bnz500 Yeh he's a bit arrogant, but not THAT much I would call him a douche... Not in the slightest! He's just not very polite that's all, nothing to cry about.

I don<t have the kind of balls it takes to be if only partially responsible for a research project that burned about 100K$ in only 3 days! Can you say "undue pressure for """results""" "! ;)
@SubTachyon Some one said there are 6 000 000 physicists in the world which out of the approximate 6 000 000 000 people in the world gives you 1 in 1000.
Hmmm, my guess is that the rig is meant primarily to puncture a container of some sorts placed within the jug, and to do it safely and somewhat remotely. From that assumption my guess is that you want to mix two things that result in a lot of energy being released. Maybe you plan to mix a bit of the Na and/or K previously seen in the video with water?
@Galgamax2 So you think that is reasonable that 1 in 1,000 people in the world grasp something that "nobody understands"? Ya, I call BS on that. People with a PhD in Physics, sure, that's not 1 in 1,000 or even 1 in 100,000. This is 6.6 million people in the world that grasp a subject that nobody understands. Maybe it is 66K has a grasp on it.
It looks like you want to dunk something in a solution from a distance. Potassium in water perhaps?? Or on a funnier note, Automatic Circumcision Machine (ACM)! This has been attempted but, never mastered. Someone put there penis into the unknown machine and see what happens. Hope it doesn't cost you your man-hood....XD lol Did Prince Albert make that machine???

From that assumption my guess is that you want to mix two things that result in a lot of energy being released. Maybe you plan to mix a bit of the Na and/or K previously seen in the video with water?

I must disagree with the idea the 1 in 1000 people has a grasp of quantum mechanics.
To quote my favorite physicist "I think I can safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics."

@Galgamax2 So you think that is reasonable that 1 in 1,000 people in the world grasp something that "nobody understands"? Ya, I call BS on that. People with a PhD in Physics, sure, that's not 1 in 1,000 or even 1 in 100,000. This is 6.6 million people in the world that grasp a subject that nobody understands. Maybe it is 66K has a grasp on it.

It looks like you want to dunk something in a solution from a distance. Potassium in water perhaps?? Or on a funnier note, Automatic Circumcision Machine (ACM)! This has been attempted but, never mastered. Someone put there penis into the unknown machine and see what happens. Hope it doesn't cost you your man-hood....XD lol Did Prince Albert make that machine???
