You should have the Baseball canon from Smarter every day essentially pitching to a super bat, an 1000MPH ball getting hit by a bat spinning at 500MPH, would result in the ball getting hit really, really far, maybe go for a distance WR? Would be fun to see 😂

[@Still_who_Iam]

Well scientifically speaking, you are more likely to break the record the slower the ball is going. It takes less of the energy the bat is creating to convert the kinetic energy of the baseball from energy going toward the bat to energy imparted by the bat into the ball going the other direction.

[@HughJanus9999]

Thank you for your service, citizen.

[@kellylogs2642]

I imagine someone must've said this by now but I can't find it so, just in case: what makes a steel mild is a low carbon content, and so it tends to be a bit more malleable than high carbon steel, which gets used in things like blade making because it can be hardened to better hold its shape (in the case of a blade, better hold an edge).

[@A2Z1Two3]

Did you look up Velocity , which is speed , in a given direction. If you did not know , or look it up , then you maybe you now learned something else 😂

[@TheWhapow]

That Orbie slowie was top notch! Ye of little faith.

[@ThaAngryAussie]

Just a quick answer to any wondering. "Mild Steel" is referring to the the carbon content of the metal. Mild steel is a low carbon metal in comparison to something like Cast Iron which is high carbon metal.

[@rock32256]

Would it be possible to get a set of ballistic gel mannequins with bones to see what would possibly happen if you got hit with a baseball?

[@authorking1755]

You need to make a giant pick axe so the transfer of force is much more concentrated, you spoke about this when trying to break things with the mega dart but you couldn’t aim the dart however with a pick axe you will know where it is going to land every time

[@cervod2529]

For those wondering, the only difference between speed and velocity is the former is a scalar, and the latter is a vector, in lamens terms velocity has a direction while speed is just how fast something is moving.

[@xxskabxx]

[@ianr8021]

[@frantisekvrana3902]

1:40 If you consider carbon spice, then yeah. 5:34 They are the same unit. Velocity is generally used as vector, while speed is used as scalar. So if you travel from your home to your work, then the overall distance divided by your total time was your speed. But if at any point during the drive you look at your velocimeter, it will tell you your current velocity forward. I see now that the bulletproof glass you got is rated for cannonballs.

[@NashMusicStudios]

I’m sure you can make a program to launch the ball at the right time to hit the sweet spot (though the chaos is great) or maybe get the mechanism that was used to intermittently fire bullets through prop planes and tweak it to make contact
