What happens when a NERF dart breaks the SPEED OF SOUND?

This is my favorite video of yours yet!! Awesome design considerations and nice job on the construction. Plus the Schlieren imaging was super cool to see. I would have never expected nerf darts to survive being shot at supersonic speeds!

Unrelated, I'm a big fan of yours. Your laser bazooka is one of my favorite videos on youtube.

[@TheBackyardScientist]

haha thanks! TBH I kinda had to cheat and reinforce the nerf darts. I just used tape and earplugs, or filled the center with polyurethane foam because I did not want to add to much weight, that would invalidate results. Im waiting patiently for your CO2 laser rifle, and flash powder pumped laser!!

Eventually, one of these hiatuses will be because DARPAs got him doing research for them.

[@TheBackyardScientist]

Actually i worked on a DARPA project in university called BAMBI (Biocompatibility of Advanced Materials for Brain Machine Interfaces) www2.eng.usf.edu/about/news/04-30-2012%20Collaborative%20Group%20Receives%20$1.2M%20DARPA%20Funding.pdf Basically i just grew brain cells on different materials to test if they would kill the cells or not. Then I stained and counted them.. manually. I was just a lowley undergrad, working under a phd candidate.. but technically I DID do research for DARPA! haha.

"So naturally we tried shooting it at lighters" -TheBackyardScientist

[@ThePhantomSafetyPin]

I'm pretty sure, actually, from a crystal chemistry point of view, that I know what the spark is coming from. It's from the glass. You see, it takes a lot of energy to break a bond chemically, same as anything else. Glass is a crystalline silicon lattice, so it tends to have very tough bonds that are a mix between chemical bonds, and ionic ones. I think the sparks are coming from the nerf dart going SO FAST when it hits that the glass is broken harshly enough to make the ionic bonds separate and *emit light* as a result. It's not a spark, it's a photon. That's why you can't light the lighter on fire with it - it's not heat energy. Just my theory though.

It travels faster than the speed of sound.. so you cant hear it until the sound catches up... it's ok. Lolol

It's going faster than sound though so the sound is long gone before you hear it

There are two scientists in every scientist. One is a serious, dedicated science professional. The other is an inner child that likes playing with dangerous things. You absolutely should feed them both.

The supermaxx 5000 I modified when I was a kid used to top out around 72 mph, the older micro darts would shred after that. The earplug is a great idea

[@azerdraco3146]

Don't you mean wreck-oning?

[@CrazyNerdInventor]

Maybe his tank was larger and his barrel was longer so it was able to accelerate for longer. Perhaps this allowed him to use a lower pressure so that the force from the pressure wouldn't rip the dart apart. Instead of designing it to accelerate it by a short burst of high pressure you could design it to accelerate with a longer bust of lower pressure.

[@Sableagle]

I was thinking of him before I saw that bit. I was thinking that if you really want that nerf dart to go fast you should probably load it into a sabot and get him to fire it out of his .50 BMG rifle. Looking at the specs, though, there isn't room for the sabot. I'm pretty sure you'd be blowing burning confetti out if you just swapped the bullet for a nerf dart. Maybe Taofledermaus and Ballistic Machinist could come up with something to launch that dart from a shotgun instead. A .729 calibre ought to have room for dart and sabot. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHzHc5lvmpt5pMk kzbin.info/www/bejne/rWTWgqGjltF1nrs Of course he already did it. Eh. You beat his velocities out of the park.
