Turning a Googol to 1 gearbox from the other side!?

What would happen!? I got this question like a thousand times
See my other video of how it actually works.
Only the 3th gear is still possible to turn by hand after that friction takes over.
About the work:
On march 1 2020 14:52 I was exactly 1 billion seconds old. To celebrate I build this machine that visualizes the number googol. That's a 1 with a hundred zeros. A number that's bigger than the atoms in the known universe. This machine has a gear reduction of 1 to 10 a hundred times. In order to get the last gear to turn once you'll need to spin the first one a google amount around. Or better said you'll need more energy than the entire known universe has to do that. That boggles my mind. ⁣
The version in the video is a prototype and cannot run for to long BUT I'm making a version that could run for years/decades. If you are interested don't hesitate to contact me via email.

This work is totally inspired by the work of Arthur Ganson. Machine in concrete.

Not just massive. In theory, it would require more energy than there is in the known universe to rotate it. and this doesn't even account for friction. But yeah, I still kinda think the same.

[@dontneedtoknow5836]

Then most energy required would be frony start. If he was to sequentially turn the gears from the lowest to the highest ratio ( simular to a mountain bike ) he may not be able to turn the final heat but he would make it a lot further down the line.

[@Raybro16]

I actually thought that the rotation would've been inverted. The last gear would've made the first gear rotate in 1 googol years kinda thing, you know?

[@giovanniquargentan6198]

@Dick Man maan no we wouldn't, let's say you manage to turn a full rotation the first gear in one second: that means the last gear will in one second rotate a googol times, reaching a googol angular velocity. Energy of a rotating body is proportional to its rotational inertia and to the square of its angular velocity. That last gear would such an insane amount of energy, not even the entire universe has that. So no its not possible. At the very best in complete absence of friction you would manage to rotate the last gear an insanely infinitesimal amount in a short period of time, or an infinitesimal amount with many years

This is the BEST demonstration of power vs torque I have ever seen. If power and torque were interchangeable, you could turn it from either side with the same force and achieve the same movement at the beginning gear. Instead, trying to turn it from the high geared end results in no movement at all, because there is insufficient torque to even get it moving.

Theoretically, if you can make it move just the size of a billionth of a billionth of a billionth of an atom, the surface last gear will travel a distance of billions of billions of billions of hundreds of millions the size of the universe. Gogol power

[@Tomsta17]

@cooper Harper a billionth of a billionth of a billionth of an atom is ~1e-36 m (Based on helium which is about 10e-10). Now use the gearing to multiply that by a googol (1e100) and you get 1e65 m The known universe is a mere 8.8e26 m across. Billions of billions of billion of hundreds of millions the size of the universe is 1e9 * 1e9 * 1e9 * 100 * 1e6 * 8.8e26, which comes out to 8.8e61 m, which is still less than the distance that last gear would travel. My question is, how are you doubting/questioning RAXO's math? I think you don't understand how mind bogglingly big a googol is :)

[@57thorns]

@@Tomsta17 To be honest it is hard to understand, but RAXO did at least try to figure out a way to put "size we understand" at the center. Given that a wheel has a diameter of about 450 mm, so one full revolution is 0.5 meter (give or take), or 10^-27 the size of the universe, the same rotation would make a wheel somewhere between 25 and 30 rotate one full rotation.

@@davidbosilj no you're not supposed to stop with the clutch all the way in and still in second gear. First of all, if you stop and try to start again in second gear you'll have to rev it a lot higher than you would in first to get moving, which isn't good for the friction material in the clutch, but i can understand why you would because first is annoyingly slow. Not really a big deal. However there is literally no good reason to come to a complete, prolonged stop with the clutch in. Sitting in traffic or at a red light with the clutch in the whole time will put extreme excessive wear on your throw-out bearing, the springs that disconnect the clutch, and the hydraulic system that assists you when you put the clutch in.

[@davidbosilj]

@@snk_ow4354 I'm guessing you are from the USA, or some other place where manual transmission cars are rare, and are self-taught driving a manual. Lets say for example you are driving in fourth gear and you see a red light in front of you. You don't just put your car in neutral and let it slide forward, while slowly braking. You have to downshift to 3rd, let the engine braking do its thing and then down to second. When in second gear you brake until you get down to about 1200 rpm, then push in the clutch and come to a complete stop. When you are stopped you can shift it into neautral or first depending on the situation. (You are never supposed to start in second gear under normal conditions, maybe only if the road is very icy) Driving your car in neutral is dangerous, because if for example someone rear ends you, your legs will fly backwards, letting go of the pedals. Then you have absolutely 0 engine braking, and your foot is off the brake. Also your car is much easier to maneuver when you are in gear and have engine braking than being in neutral.

[@snk_ow4354]

@@davidbosilj so all of that unnecessary downshifting and sitting on the clutch while stopped is solely for the tiny chance that you might get rear ended? down shifting through every single gear is either a lot of effort from rev matching or a lot of pointless wear on your synchros. Also what does maneuverability have to do with anything? we're talking about being completely stopped. I can understand downshifting to slow down if someone in front of you is turning or something along those lines, but i see no good reason to row through every gear to come to a complete stop. Brake pads are a lot cheaper to replace than transmission parts.

[@user-md6ct9np3z]

I do not know the diameter of the gears, but judging by the size of the hand, I assume it 150 mm .If the surface of the first gear turns at the speed of light 299,792,458,000 mm/s, then it will make one revolution in 1.57188 e-9 seconds. Under these conditions, the 10th gear will make a revolution in 1.57 seconds, 20th in 498 years. Я не знаю диаметр шестерен, но, судя по размеру руки, думаю 150 мм. Если поверхность первой шестерни будет крутиться со скоростью света 299 792 458 000 мм/сек, то один оборот она будет совершать за 1,57188e-9 сек . При этих условиях 10-я шестерня будет совершать оборот за 1,57 сек. 20-я за 498 лет.

[@joncarter8896]

Если зделать две шестерни в соотношении 1 к 10 например 6 и 60 зубев и закрепить неподвижно одну над второй. Можна собрать редуктор где уже на 10 паре у нас уже будет 1 000 000 оборотов. С одной сторони можно прикрипить вес с другой електрогенератор. Если якорь електрогенератора будет вращаться со скоростю 1 000 000 оборотов, даже если в минуту ето нам будет давать ток. С помощу трансформатора можно будет увеличить напряжение. Таким образом можно создать гравитационий електро генератор. А груз обратно можно и с помощу системи блоков поднимать.

let us pretend for a moment that it was possible to turn that last gear with your hand, and turn it exactly once, in one second. At a 1:10 ratio the second to last gear spun 10 times in that second. The third to last spun 100 times in that second. the fourth 1,000 rotations, the fifth 10,000, and the 6th 100,000. the 9th gear would spin 100,000,000 times in a second. The 10th gear breaks light speed for certain, at 1,000,000,000 rotations per second, ~3.34 times the speed of light or ~3.34c. The 100th gear, would rotate 1 googol times a second. ~3.34e+120 times the speed of light...

[@enderan647]

In theory you'd need more energy than the observable universe justt o turn it once. So if we can turn the last gear once in one second does that means there will be a big bang or something closer to that on the first gear?

[@realhuman5688]

technically it wouldn't, because relativity would come into effect. The last gear would still be travelling at less than the speed of light (albeit very close to the speed of light)

"Engravings on a gear give no tactical advantage"

[@DanHarrisonKing]

Make a device with two mechanisms. The first mechanism speeds up the first gear, whilst the second mechanism is above the second gear. Then, the first mechanism disconects, and the second above the second gear, speeds that one up (making the first gear go even faster). Then, the mechanism that was above the first gear flips over the second (or whatever it needs to do), and goes to the third gear. The mechanism then speeds the third gear up, making the second gear go faster, and the first EVEN faster. Repeat this process with all the gears, until the first gear either explodes, or travels faster than light. Congrats. You've built a time machine

[@geg5274]

"hey bro I heard you like gears"

[@mr.nobody68]

Simplest explanation that I can give, speaking as a professional automotive service technician: If you had a gear ratio of 2:1 and you input 100 Lb/Ft of torque at 50 RPM, you would get out 200 Lb/Ft at 25 RPM. The 2:1 ratio is providing torque multiplication at the detriment of RPM. The concept in this video is the exact inverse. A 1:2 gear ratio with an input of 100 Ft/Lb at 200 RPM would have an output of 50 Ft/Lb at 400 RPM. -This is called overdrive. You're gaining RPM to the detriment of torque which is how your car gets better fuel mileage. Your engine might be spinning 3500 RPM but, your transmission has a 0.68:1 final drive ratio making the output shaft spin at 2380 RPM. And then your rear axle ring and pinion will have a ratio of (commonly) 3.42:1 yielding 695.9 RPM. And then you have tire size actually provides another gear ratio. If your tire had a circumference of 60 inches, forward motion would be 60 inches per revolution. If your tire circumference were 100 inches, your vehicle would move 100 inches per revolution. [At this point, I'll mention that I'm using Chevrolet pickup truck numbers because I remember them without Google so, we're going to use a Chevrolet truck tire] Our tire is 31 inches tall. Circumference would be 97.39 inches Soooooo, we had 695.9 RPM at the axle. The tire travels 97.39 inches per rotation. Multiplication comes out to 67,774.33 inches per minute. Divide by 12 inches in a foot is 5647.8 feet per minute. 60 minutes per hour comes to 338871.64 feet per hour. Divide by 5280 feet per mile and you land at 64.18MPH Let's shift gears, pun intended Maintain 64.18 MPH. Same tire size Same axle gear ratio Our transmission output shaft has to spin at that same 2380 RPM to keep the same road speed *But now our transmission has a high gear of right about 1.1:1* To achieve the required 2380 RPM out of the transmission through that 1.1:1 gear, the engine now has to spin at 3850 RPM which burns more fuel. Hope I've managed to help somebody even though it's late as hell and I might have done my arithmetic ass backerdz. I can help anybody needing clarification though

Hey Daniel, I'm working in the gear unit business (FLENDER) so I found your work absolutely fascinating! You made a perfect mix of art, science and almost philosophy ^^ To this question about running this gear by the output. Of course it is impossible... Let imagine the torque to rotate the first wheel (due to simple friction) is 0.01 Newton meter. (which is very low). you would need 10^98 newton meters on the output wheel... I guess this is bigger than the universe mass (on 1 meter) maybe... And this is not even taking into consideration all other wheel. This is the beauty of the system. As it is, the last wheel will NEVER move.
