3 Amazing Magnetic Accelerators | Magnetic Games

I continue to experiment with new magnetic accelerators in the hope of inspiring some practical application. These are 3 magnetic accelerators that work in repulsion, in fact the accelerated body escapes the magnetic field continuing its run.
Thanks to supermagnete.com for providing me with the magnets I used in this video for free. Here the links to the products.

[@skullcrusade3436]

[@Lexinoz]

The thing about a railgun, or socalled Gauss-gun is that they can turn on and off the magnets in succession to force the projectile forward at insane speeds. Unlike this, where a slight power is pulling them backwards in addition, causing a slower velocity all-around.

[@dbgelman]

I think that back pull you are talking about is overcome by placing the square magnets in a tapered pattern in the beginning....but as they get closer together, they are further from the axle, and have less forward pulling force

[@commentsboardreferee7434]

I wondered if they could use electromagnets where the projectile itself closed the circuit on each successive magnet, eliminating the backpull.

[@damagj51]

@@commentsboardreferee7434 maybe...but wouldn't the projectile need to momentarily close the circuit just ahead of itself, to create the pull, but then after it has passed, that same circuit would need to be open, causing the field to collapse, and not have any drag or back-pulling effect?

[@commentsboardreferee7434]

@@damagj51 Something like that. Offset the circuit wires just enough for each magnet to exert force. Optimize the projectile contact length to the magnet spacing. Might sorta work.

[@DouglasBowker]

The "projectile" tube at the end is basically how particle accelerators work (though not with permanent magnets but powerful electromagnets). In that case the magnets are continuously "flipped" in their polarity so that the particle gets pulled AND pushed as it travels along. Anyway, I think the shorter you make your projectile, ie closer to a sphere the better it will travel, though it'd help if some math were applied to the distances.

A more structurally sound version of the short accelerator tube would make a really interesting addition to an air rifle; it appears that the entry velocity informs the exit velocity, so adding the magnets after propelling a projectile to the limit of available air compression would be really interesting.

I was flipping around on Twitter and was drawn to this video because it reminded me so much of something. When I was about 15 years old, I invented a subway system that looked a lot like the magnetic accelerator at the beginning of your video. Imagine a subway that had a giant plexiglass tube stretching from end to end instead of train tracks. Placed evenly along the entire length of tube were big ring magnets. It would look exactly like your magnetic accelerator. The subway train would be suspended on a rail in the center of the tube and it would be hung from the tube by couplers attached to ball bearings so that the train would glide easily along the tube. I think it would work! Try making a model of that. I would love to see it in action!

[@classichumorvids4618]

Specifically, decreasing at a ratio of Phi (1/1.618) for the most powerful effect. With a large enough array or with increased Gauss rated magnets, it can be much more powerful than even that.

[@ericrawson2909]

To all those talking about rail guns: the magnetic fields in them vary with time, allowing massive energy to be transferred from a capacitor bank to the projectile. These permanent magnets can never give more energy to the projectile than the initial kinetic plus magnetic potential energy of the system. No free energy, as I keep telling someone who has been trying to make a free energy machine for decades. I suppose it's harmless and keeps him amused making multiple machines.

[@cpK054L]

The principles of the rail/gauss gun is an Inductor not capacitor..... capacitors will actually stunt magnetic flux

[@MattTrevett]

I'm not fully understanding why putting a system like this into a circle wouldn't work. Understood that it won't, but why?

[@cpK054L]

@@expertoflizardcorrugation3967 no. It is because he using individual magnetic pieces, therefore there is a point between two magnets relating to the Helmholtz point. This where the magnetic flux is cancelled, what hes trying to do is overlap the magnetic fields to prevent this from happening. That is why railguns are best to be designed around an electromagnetic coil because the flux is radiated from the wire and not equal individual coil.

[@tateparker7782]

i dont understand why the second one cant be in a loop, the spacing between the magnets dont change and looks like itll keep accelerating

[@l.lawliet46]

@@tateparker7782 The answer is simple. Energy consumed = Energy given. First Law of thermodynamics, mass-energy conservation. So for instance, the small magnetic cylinder in a tube with magnets will generate a heat through out the magnets produced by emf which will eventually heat to a point that is past the Curie point, which will demagnetize those permanent magnets

Lengthy enough to increase velocity gradually so G's are tolerable. No worries about atmospheric drag, no worries about imminent domain, relatively low gravity ... you could really slingshot a ship into space. Express service to the Jovian moons. Launch would use only enough propellant to stabilize the ship, saving almost all of it to slow and maneuver at the end. I'm not an engineer or a scientist, just a sci-fi geek, but I think something like this could work. Might even be a good sci-fi novel in there somewhere.

People keep confusing railgun and Gauss gun. Let me explain the difference: - Railgun uses two rails and connects them with a conductive projectile. When you let the current flow, those repel each other, which launches the projectile. When the projectile disconnects from the rails, the current stops flowing. Railguns don't need much control to use energy effectively. - Gauss gun uses (electro)magnets to pull the projectile and release it. If the projectile is magnetic, those magnets can also push the projectile from behind. Most commonly, this is done in multiple stages, as seen on this video. Gauss guns need a lot of fine tuning so the magnetic stages don't slow the projectile down.

my theory for a while was that the "space gates" from bebop would come true but be like this, kinda "railgun your way through the Solar system" because the series was still all slower than light, but on par with fusion drives in the expanse. So a good midway between the two (i.e. hyperspace and real fusion drives) would be rings in space like this that would accelerate you to a measurable amount of C, then decelerate you when you arrive) So similar form factor to bebop but different physics, same outcome! (less blowing up of the moon though so wins all around!)

I made a design like this in my science class in 8th grade in 1968. We were to design a perpetual motion machine without the use of water. No one in the class used magnets. I thought I had a great idea. We were only allowed to draw it on paper. I wished I could had built it. I know there is no such thing as a perpetual motion machine because over time the parts would break. My design involved heavy magnets, tube, a ball and two shutters. The teacher only gave me a B but I thought it was the best design in the class. The teacher never liked me for some reason. Funny I still remember that design after many years.

[@achicken6477]

guess what it would never work ... well if you can shut one side of the magnet off or shield it then yes but there is no souch thing as perpetual mothion or similar things

[@dphotos007]

@@achicken6477 I had a way to shut off the power of the magnets on each end. I know there you can’t have a perpetual motion machine because of the wear and tear of the parts.

[@achicken6477]

@@dphotos007 no its not the wear and tear but it is the motion ... whore should all the energy come from ? the magnets then the magnets would runn out of power quickly (there is only so much egery in a certain thing like fuel wich has it stored in chemical form or a falling ball wich has it stored in kenetic or aball thats high in the air ... potential energy )

[@MichielvanderBlonk]

@@dphotos007 you can have perpetual motion. The planets themselves are in perpetual motion. What you can't have is free energy or have perpetual motion on earth, because of friction.

[@paulsheehan7287]

@@MichielvanderBlonk The tidal movements on earth are not bound by friction although they may be limited they are perpetual to the extent of our solar systems lifespan. If only a fraction of that energy was captured we would have ample power. It would not be free to set up the infrastructure itself similar to wind energy but it is perpetual motion in action on Earth.

[@alihaider7653]

love your video and content in it but i would appreciate more if we could have the mechanism ( poles of magnets ) in each setup at the end of the video

[@joeabad5908]

You'll be able to figure them out because the magnets will assemble by itself if they are placed on opposite poles.

Great!!! Please make a circular track with infinitely moving wheels, please!

[@user-sc9nm2vl2z]

Не получится никогда!!!

[@dperez3437]

Is there an exact measurement that would allow the magnet to pass threw without stopping? One that you could have the spacing all be the same without it causing that stop? Like a perfect measurement? Or does it always have to get further and further away?

[@user-vb8hd2vk7f]

Благодарю! Попробуйте разгонять свободный магнит вместе с медным шариком с самого начала. Тогда медный шарик будет получать весь импульс движения свободного магнита, а не часть от него в результате соударения на финишной точке разгона. И на промежуточных местах разгона имеет смысл ставить белую внутреннюю шайбу для устранения прогибов трубки при движении свободного магнита.

You have stacks of all the magnets of my dreams.

[@edouardb4134]

Good morning, with your PVC tube and the magnet that moves inside, have you ever tried to put a copper winding around it, and measured the resulting voltage and current?

[@Ni1313Ki]

That 1 with the tube through the middle. I noticed that the round magnets are spaced out very similar to how frets on a guitar are spaced out, on a guitar it's about harmonic locations. Also I wonder about the spacing of the Fibonacci sequence for the location of each round magnet. Then... Make it into a circle. I recone by the time it has accelerated the entire distance and got back to the beginning where they are closer again shit will get real

[@ColdOsburn]

Out of curiosity could you build one that could launch things for a long distance I always like to see the future of space travel by using this type of method

[@siddhantvashishtha6949]

this is very weak for space travel, furthermore the amount of energy needed to power such electromagnets would be monumental

[@usernameforyoutube2661]

@@siddhantvashishtha6949 There's no resisting force in space and movement continues unless there is an opposing force. I think maybe you are referring to launch?

[@ColdOsburn]

@Siddhant Vashishtha All right then what would happen if this thing was on the moon and the main Cannon can be changed direction to any of our planets in our galaxy since there will be probably no gravity the object would probably catch up more speed

[@uncanny3637]

If we did create a powerful enough contraption that uses this method for space travel, it will turn the people inside into pancakes, due to the sudden increase of G force.

[@siddhantvashishtha6949]

[@inspectorgadget346]

Perhaps you can create the perfect magnetic casing to hold anti-matter. Oh and of course you would then have to find antimatter and in case it in a magnetic field without using matter.
