This rail gun seems to violate conservation of energy and momentum. However, why it doesn't is interesting. The electromagnetic force is fundamental; and a magnetic or steel ball would be attracted to it by the very nature of the force. This releases the potential energy of the field, and removing the ball requires kinetic energy which keeps us from violating any laws. Energy is actually an emergent property and doesn't actually exist, but it's very handy for doing the math and explaining many things.

This is just speculation on my part, but I suspect it would be impossible to make a setup like this where the projectile isn't captured by one of the pairs of magnets. Since the only reason it isn't caught by the very first pair is the presence of an even more powerful magnet further ahead. So no matter how fast it gets, it can only move as fast as the strength of the next magnet.

@xenmax11 ай бұрын
A "Halbach" array will not be useful at all in this use case because what it does is deforming the magnetic field so that practically all the magnetic flux is on one side. To achieve that you use 4 magnets and you get a field that is less than twice the strength (the other half is wasted canceling the magnetic field in the other side) so equivalent to two magnets put together side by side. A halbach array is useful if you want to confine the mangetic flux to one side only or if due to cost of space constraints is better to use 4 smaller magnets instead of a bigger one of almost twice the strength.

What is the point of the smaller magnets? The energy imparted as the ball travels in and out of their fields is zero. The velocity at the center of the largest magnet would be the same without the first smaller stages.

The force exerted by the large magnet would be equal, true, but reaching speed needs some acceleration, and acceleration requires some path along which it is happening. That's just what the smaller magnets provide

I loved this video even though the brick was already broken 😢

Hmmm yes yes but what happens if you put something in the balls path to the big magnets at the end? Does it plow right through or does it prevent it from reaching its goal?
@evilsheepmaster17449 ай бұрын
I'm sure that depends on the something. The magnets pull with a certain amount of force, so if the something is strong enough (like a heavy object with a lot of friction), then the ball will stop, otherwise it'll push it out of the way or break it.

I believe as magnets get stronger, the technological applications will explode! How could we wait so long to start exploring what magnets can do?

You have hundreds of these magnets by now. Where do you store them? How is it safe?

As you could see, the forces are greatly attenuated by distance.

Very entertaining video. Now set up a mirror configuration on the other side of the big magnet. Test how much force is exerted when two metal balls collide in the center with nowhere else to go.

It might open a wormhole.

what would be the total cost of the magnets and balls used in this video? roughly?

One of the coolest videos I’ve seen on KZbin in a long time!
