Neat Magnetic Sculpture

[KClaisse2]

Why did you repeat the same thing twice? This video should have been half as long.

[RedTailedTuna]

someone had a water jet and way to much free time on their hands

[zackthebaconlover]

did anyone else hear the cat?

[bjhennessey]

The idea was good. The result was bland. It happens.

[dano253]

lucky you had slow motion replay



[fatkittykat67]

press f13 for sound

[attheveryend]

@Studi037,

I reccomend the addition of inductors. powering the inductors in different ways can cause your sculpture to move on it's own in interesting ways.

[emeraldgypsyheart]

neato

[NoVideosUser]

Some music would be good..

[Studi037]

@NoVideosUser I agree, ...can you point me to a free, yet licensed-for-commercial use (and hopefully not annoying) that I can patch in to an existing video? (and that matches the length)?

[NoVideosUser]

@Studi037 I don't know any song to fit the video. If I find one I'll let you know.

[Itsmeeman1]

@Studi037 There's plenty of Classical music to chose from that fit the bill.

[siriusblack9999]

@Studi037 audio swap

[UnholyStyx]

@Studi037 WTF you talking bout? Everyone uses copyrighted music!

[DeadlyTeaParty]

@UnholyStyx I don't! :)

[munkykai]

@Studi037 newgrounds com there is an audio section. give that a shot, they have a very very large selection of user created music, a lot of it is used for general purpose stuff.

[cracottecassee]

@Studi037 there's something like that integrated in youtube ;)

[DeadlyTeaParty]

@Studi037 Use incompetech, Im a partner and thats the site I use if I want to add music! audio swap is no good if you are earning money on your videos

[willrandship]

@Studi037 Oh, you mean audioswap! :P

[guyi2545]

@Studi037 You don't need music that matches the length just fade it out near the end and then it won't cut off...+ a lot of songs can be used......more than not actually.

[legoguy40004]

@NoVideosUser step one: have internet, i see u've done that already...

step two: open new tab

step three: open another utube page

step four:play muisic u like

-.-...

[MinecraftianCitizan]

Its doing the worm



[whambatSTEP]

the cat meow

[InukedCanada]

But will it blend?

[RyanK222]

Needs more cowbell

[CHUCKIE13666]

sssss im a snake ssss

[yodagreennutsack]

The universe! ...

[SoEvil2]

How many grandfather clocks were needed for this?

[pantsongrnd]

Love the socks in the sandals!

[myungskywalker]

@pantsongrnd lol yeah..markings of a true nerd

[Xcrypt1991]

Lol, cool :D

[joltingd]

that's pretty neat

[riotpoliec]

It moved.

[grassysaq]

I saw one of these at the Exploratorium in San Francisco

[farmerwoody123]

its similar to Bartons Pendula, its to do with the natural frequency of the pendulums.

[unholyraviel1]

oh wow thats cool

[mrfizzzzzzzy]

aw cool :D

[brynnus]

It takes true genius to create something both fascinating and boring.

[TheC1c2c3c4c]

it may take some of you awhile to get that so to save time... its a joke about magnetic +- sides

[TheC1c2c3c4c]

@louieisawsome0000

well when two polls like each other really much, they become unseperatable until one of them turns its back on the other and hangs out with the poll down the street :P

[Dayize14]

I know now.... snakes are made up of magnetic sheets!

[GIN0MAN5432]

neatoooo

[1pinosos1]

more likely to do with induction and eddy currents than magnetic attraction

[ZombiePlz]

Smart... As one swings, it is pulling others with it's magnetic pull.

[Goddamnmullets]

@louieisawsome0000 Division by zero.

[Gunner3210]

Eddy currents and Lenz's law. This is grade 11 physics.

[phrdao]

@Gunner3210 Lenz's law gives rise to Eddy currents which generates a magnetic field which OPPOSES the magnetic field giving rise to the Eddy current. (If it enhanced the magnetic field you'd have a perpetual motion machine and we'd have free energy forever... Nature doesn't like that idea.) This means if it were Eddy currents, neighbouring magnets would move away, not together as shown in the video. The interaction is thus just a simple magnetic one.

[Gunner3210]

@phrdao Just you saying that it is a simple magnetic one doesn't change the fact that eddy currents are being introduced in the metal surrounding the magnets

Yes, your understanding of the lenz's law and eddy currents is correct. But your understanding of the dynamics of this system is incorrect. I never said that eddy currents enhance anything. Build a similar system with only 3 pendulums. Put a magnet in only the center pendulum. You will see a very similar effect.

[rhomboidal]

But can it blend?

[littlwsister101699]

uh hello it is obvious!!!! they are MAGNETS right? well magnets can stick to gether so the force is pulling them together and they follow the one that the ppl push!!! DUHHHHH

[dauntSilver]

its perpetual motion!!!

[patolorde]

need moar redstone

[fredlover6778]

@patolorde

was that a referrence to Minecraft?

[prairegirl1o1]

whenever i watch these i keep my mouth open and ask "how they do that?" and then i dont sleep for a week

[TownshipLax08]

u kno now this makes me want to go watch a cattepillar

[The6ChickMagnet]

Newton would jerk off to this video

[BEASTpoint]

Fuck you newtons cradle

[kapwns]

@omarrasouli its a meme, if paid attention in internet um....jus know your memes! ;p

[TucsonRobb]

Very cool and nicely made! If I had to name it I would call it the "SineSwing"

I've made a few magnetic sculptures with neodymium magnets.

[yorkchr123]

Intresting :D

[mrslig100]

So I herd you liek magnetz now...

[ricktbdgc]

me : mom look what i built with my allowance money!

mom : your grounded

[louieisawsome0000]

fucking magnets, how do they work?

[Studi037]

@louieisawsome0000

...magic!!! :-)

[ninia2290]

@Studi037 wrong... its a miracle. just like giraffes!

[gphx]

@louieisawsome0000 Magnetism.

[omarrasouli]

@louieisawsome0000 if you paided attention in class yew would kno -.-"

[zack5779]

@louieisawsome0000 Well... The rocks stay underground for so long that little bits of gravity get stuck to them ;)

[FreeReery]

@louieisawsome0000 Fucking miracles.

[tuner923]

@louieisawsome0000 It's a common principle known as "IFM" I've learned from my studies in school. Now, this IFM is a common explanation on how many things work in the world especially with the many advances in technology. IFM is found everywhere in our everyday lives though we often over look it. Seriously, take a good look around see anything with an electric motor, generator or microprocessor? Yep all chock full of IFM. It's Fucking Magic!

[kylelawhon]

@tuner923 its a song

[Narcostix]

@louieisawsome0000 easy, they're just bits of metal which still have gravity in them :P

[legendarycupcake]

@louieisawsome0000 A wizard did it...

[infintitygamer]

@louieisawsome0000 bill bill bill bill bill nye the science guy

@louieisawsome0000 Aliens

[JATO457]

@louieisawsome0000 they basically are attracted to the swinging one as it passes by, making the entire line of them move.

[skiendog]

@JATO457 Yeah, we got that part. It's the magnets that are in question, themselves.

[JATO457]

@skiendog Basically, objects can have one of 3 states:

Non-Magnetic

Magnetic

Magnetized.

Non-magnetic objects have a magnetic field that is unaligned, causing any field to be cancelled out.

Magnetic objects have some fields aligned, but have no overall magnetic field.

Magnetized objects have all of their fields aligned in one direction, causing it overall to have a north pole, and a south pole.

[LockLoaded]

@JATO457 Basically, you're wrong. Ever heard of paramagnetism and diamagnetism?

[phrdao]

@JATO457 Kinda right. I study solid state physics for a living and have worked on magnetic materials. Magnetic materials are characterised as either: diamagnetic, paramagnetic, ferromagnetic, ferrimagnetic and antiferromagnetic. A material's classification is determined by the alignment of the electron "spin" (a quantum mechanical property) and the strength and nature of the interaction between neighbouring spins.

[thewerepyreking]

@louieisawsome0000 Miracles.

[raifUSA]

@louieisawsome0000 its resonance..

[SuicidelRetard]

@louieisawsome0000 ask magneto

[attheveryend]

@louieisawsome0000,

Moving charges create magnetic fields.

Electrons inside of atoms can be approximated to orbit a nucleus. They also have angular momentum. The movements of these electrons act like an electric current and produce magnetic fields. When many of these fields allign in a material, that magnetic field can become quite strong and be seen easily on the macro scale.

[n3o1er]

@louieisawsome0000 WHOOP WHOOP! MCL!

[MindlessSpark]

@louieisawsome0000 i would answer you, but it would require a few pages of explanation

[ManofWario]

Here is what I think is happening:

The dot you see in each pendulum is a magnet. When the magnet goes towards the pendulums, the ones closest the the swinging one are pulled in the direction the swinging one is going in because of the magnets The force gets weaker as you go along is because the magnets can't pull on a 1:1 ratio, it's more of of a 2:1 or 3:1 ratio. The fact that the pendulums are all made of metal (has to be something magnetic, like Iron) supports all this.

[themagicalponyofdoom]

I think... the circles all have a relatively strong magnet buried inside each and every one, and the magnet's pull is what moves the next pendulum in that direction, and the one next to it, and the one next to that one, and so on and so forth.

[weby113]

cool soooo wavy....XD

[odin5150]

Not really the neatest thing i ever saw but ok

[TheLifeOfEpic]

KEWL

[enriquelaya]

Very nice. Do the pendulums have a magnet each inserted and hiden? Thanks. Enrque Laya
