Diamagnetisch water.

[1TEKTRON1]

Install 2 ceramic magnetron magnets, attracting each other around the cold water supply on your water heater. Install 2 wooden blocks between the magnets to keep the magnetic fields square. use electrical tape to secure. This field will prevent calcium buildup in the tank and will even strip out old calcium buildup. calcium buildup is the #1 cause of replacement on water heaters.

wow , thats facisnating i had no idea a perminant magnet could effect water in this way, Can you tell me how many gauss is the magnet your using?>?

[Raxqorz]

when i put my finger near water, the water comes closer to my finger.. why is that?

[sypha0x]

it is actually hydrogen that is diamagnetic in H2O Oxygen is paramagnetic if you were to have pure hydrogen it would totally change paths

[metamaterial]

Molecular oxygen (the o2 we breathe) is paramagnetic, and this took a long time and some refinements of orbital theory to explain. Oxygen is normally diamagnetic.

[KKinsane2009]

you can do this with your hand, though it comes at you not away...

[TheriseofL]

is that for real? Crazy!

[quantumforce100]

I believe that the water running thru the metallic faucet also picks up a certain amount of charge due to its movement. That being so, how much of the effect is is due to the slightly charged water? Anyone have a percentage or formula? Thanks!

[lecorfec]

You are right: you can have this effect : "pushing" the water with electrostatic field: try it with a comb after brushing long hairs... but here it is the diamagnetic property of water that is shown: magnet are conductive: there is no elecrircal field.

[WoWAlly1]

its not the water bending its the world around it Sometimes its better not to know lol jk its the water bending

[tielemaniak]

Try it with a haircomb, simply rub it against nylon or whool. The static load will have more effect then the magnetic force.

[picobyte]

True, but irrelevant to this experiment.

[voorthuizenr]

How cool is that! You have an LED-equipped sink!

[zeropointprophet]

hahaha your interested in the LED-equipped sink hahaha nice

[SunnyShawFilms]

Now Why water is running away from it ?

[ochami]

amazingly strong magnets!

possibly, you cannot separate them apart easily.

[martinkiburst]

does the same with a ruler made of plastic, just rub it a bit and build up static... looks more impressive too!

[picobyte]

That's not the purpose of this experiment this is about magnetism, not static.

[blahdob]

yay! i just need to build something....

hmmm..

[ddanvos68]

I tryed this with 4 1"x 1/2" x 1/4 and it doesnt work for me. Any ideas why?

[Colombian459]

try neodymium.

[ddanvos68]

It was neos

[Colombian459]

O pfshhh-

hmmmm... u tried this exact experiment???

[ddanvos68]

Exact and it doesnt work, It may be fake i dont know. It seems like a simple experiment but I couldnt get even the thinest stream to move with a large neo.

[Colombian459]

well??????

hmph-

im confused.

well what are u going to do?

[raypsi]

Maybe he ain't got no minerals in his water

[raypsi]

Cause I can do it with 4pcs of 0.25" X 0.25" dia. neo's

[Colombian459]

yes- but isn't the water itself diamagnetic-

not just the minerals.

[svebert86]

You don't need minerals in the water.

Water is diamagnetic, this means. The water tries to get out of the magnetic field of the permanentmagnets. You need a strong magnet to see this effect.

[Xxero0]

its real, hes using a strong magnet, strong enough to show the diamagnetism of water.

[picobyte]

That's a stack of four large hard disk magnets.

The fieldstrength is little more than one tesla.

[mimic58]

@picobyte 1 tesla?? from four hard disk magnets you'd be lucky to get 1000gauss with those

[jircy1329]

wat kind of magnet is that?

[regurgitation]

you didnt do anything?

[AnselmoFanZero]

He's holding a mangnet and "moves the water"
