@evewingful It depends on how much touches you and for how long. If it's just a drop or two, nothing happens. Your hand is so hot relative to nitrogen's boiling point that a layer of gas quickly forms between you and the nitrogen that serves to protect you. Once that layer breaks down, whatever the nitrogen is in contact with begins to freeze.
@absentmindedprof It can be used to cool some materials down to where they become superconductive. These particular materials are collectively called 'high temperature superconductors.' While the name may seem odd, it takes its origins from the time when liquid helium was needed to induce superconductivity.
@11kazzo No kidding... Due to construction in the building, Steve has had to temporarily relocate his office to the classroom. Lights keep going off every 5 minutes. His arms are getting tired...
You have to be more careful when handling liquid nitrogen! The Leidenfrost effect will protect you a bit, but not for long. Your cells will die, and you could get frostbite.
@YOSF0113 Thanks for your concern, but that's the reason why we wear the safety gear. Sometimes unexpected things happen and our odds of staying unhurt are better when we dress the part.
Hmmm, I don't have that much respect for liquid nitrogen. If I've got something left over in the lab at the end of the day, I'll always pour it over my hand. Feels like a "heavy" cold wind. And tickles a little bit ;-)
i dont understand with the blackouts, does the room turn off when theres no motion inside or something? it didnt look like it was just the camera blacking out
@ussyless Yeah, there's a motion sensor that turns the lights off after five minutes. Very annoying. It's especially when you're soldering something and the lights go out right when the tip of the soldering iron is right next to your fingers. But, it saves literally pennies a year in electrical use!
@TheAteston No, trying to alter money and then attempting to pass it off as something else is. There's no fraud here (we aren't trying to convince people that the smashed penny is really a dime, for instance) so it's perfectly legal.
@JeffersonLab Actually destroying money is illegal too. It is so to prevent altering the value of money randomly. Of course a couple of pennies doesn't matter, but if you were to say, burn 100 million dollars in 50 dollar bills it would dramatically change the value of money.
@espulu Okay, so there is a difference between coins and paper currency. Title 18 of the United States Code, Section 331, states, in part "Whoever fraudulently alters, defaces, mutilates, impairs, diminishes, falsifies, scales, or lightens any of the coins coined at the mints ... shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than five years, or both." Note that the intent is for fraud. If I have a $5 gold piece and I 'trim' a bit of it off and then use the $5 coin as a $5 coin (cont...)
@espulu (...cont) that's illegal because I'm attempting to commit fraud. On the other hand, Section 333 states, in part "Whoever mutilates, cuts, defaces, disfigures ... or does any other thing to any bank bill ... with intent to render such bank bill ... unfit to be reissued, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than six months, or both." Again, the key here is intent. If you accidentally destroy paper money, that's okay. If you intend to do it, that's a problem.

Can liquid nitrogen be uesd to create a super conductor?

got an idea for your 3rd experiment, water bomb balloon filled with water in liquid nitrogen, or dry ice in balloon and dipped in liquid nitrogen?
