  • WHO PUT THE DISLIKE!

  • nandigama3 *Super conductors repel magnets...

    The superconductor does not repels the magnets (the oposite pole does) the Superconductor makes a diamagnetic fase transformation, that means the magnetic field can not pass through it. Not only the magnet is on a minimun Energy between the Gravitatory force, the Magnetic field - the diamagnetic coin, all the system does. if the superconducting repels magnets, it should not fly when the boy takes the magnet !

  • what are the materials and procedure of this experiment pls answer?

  • Basically there are three types classifications for magnetizable [ for lack of better word ] materials.Ferromagnetic materials: Strongly magenizable like iron,nickle cobalt etc.,Paramagnetic materials: Weakly magenizable like Aluminum, copper etc., Diamagnetic materials: They repel magnetism. Bismuth, Carbon graphite etc.,

    super conductors are strongly diamagnetic.They a magnet and opposing force of magnetic repulsion would cause the phenomenon known as magnetic levitation.

  • cool...

  • looks like dry ice and two repelling magnets.

  • its like a north and south on one end

  • سهل بردها و تصير فائقة التوصيل

    superconductor

  • will it ever go back down

  • Yeah when it returns to room temperature.

  • This experiment is Physics 101. Nothing being held back. We heard a lot about superconductors in the 1980s when high temp ones were discovered. Google Meissner effect.

  • Hey, I'm applying for UCLA physics graduate program this year. After watching this video my motivation has considerably increased :)

  • Where is my flying car? Lets get it invented already!

  • yes this is a superconductor

  • Its superconductor

  • Damn Cryogenics kicks ass.

  • could you make like a floating house or somthing awesome like that ????

  • if you had a crazy amount of liquid nirogen and a big ass batterery

  • We actually made our superconductors in Inorganic Chemistry and then performed this same experiment. I loved it. I still have my superconductor but liquid nitrogen is a little hard to come by so, it's simply a keepsake.

  • I'm just wondering how did you do it!

    You gotta explain me! (please)

  • Fascinating...I wonder if you can create hoovering cars with anti gravity?

  • Witchcraft !!!

  • The black block in the ceramic cup is perhaps YBCO [ yttrium barium copper oxide ] or BiScO type II High temperature superconductor which will become super conducting in liquid nitrogen temperatures range. The substance is ceramic in nature and is non conductive at room temperatures. The metal object is a regular magnet.

    Super conductors repel magnets instead of being attracted to them

    This is called magnetic levitation.

    Japanese MagLev trains work on this principle.

  • can u plzz elaberete  it's mechanism???

  • Comment removed

  • Maybe this is the way to hover-cars, just in a larger proportion with electrically powered mechanisms.

  • Not cost effective.

  • most probably liquid nitrogein, helium is better but that's really expensive.

  • Wow, look at the other video for the liquid nitrogen and balloon amazing experiment

  • I believe so

  • wow nice is that liquid nitrogein?
