What you think about the event that created Witcher universe, so called Conjunction of the Spheres? What was it? BTW I love the show.

[@kaelanirevyruun1676]

Hey, got three rather odd questions... And both involve THE FORCE OF PULLING YOU DOWN LIKE THE UNIVERSE'S GREATEST SUPERVILLAIN! (insert Evil Kyle laugh here) First question: Dual Gravity. Based on the laws of physics, would Dual Gravity, (a la the movie "Upside down") be possible? Or would the two planets simply crash into each other due to the law of attraction? Second question: Would a "floating island" Earth (a la Skyland, an old tv series) be possible? The intro to the show's episodes goes like this: "It is the 23rd Century, and the Earth has shattered into millions of inhabitable pieces." I'm just wondering whether that would even be possible given physics :'D And finally, the third question: In the movie Patema Inverted, a scientific experiment somehow led to a portion of the population being "inverted", leading to them and all their children being born with opposing gravity. For example, you or I would simply stand on the surface of the earth, but these "Inverts" would literally fall into the sky, as though the ground is the ceiling. Is there anything within physics that you know of that could facilitate that? For... Not-supervillain-y purposes... *shifty eyes* P.S. Love the subtle lore you've been building over the last couple of years with the show, and creating an entire universe around the Void (Which I'm thinking we should dub the Onyxian Abyss for an official name :P)

Oh yea? Who's gonna listen to my feelings? You? When I told someone I was depressed enough that I was seriously thinking about suicide they put me in a psych ward for a week, gave me anti psychotics till I was "stable" then kicked me out, and canceled my prescription for "health reasons" as the doctor put it. I've only gotten more depressed since then, but everyone acts like I was just trying to get attention. Nobody cares about you unless you have something to give, and nobodies gonna listen to you unless you pay them by the hour.

Hey Kyle, Love the show as well as the laughs you give me One question, how many bees would it really take to lift and steer an airliner like the bees in bee movie do?

[@Zettern96]

I don't think it is possible for bees to lift and steer an airliner. The bees would have to stack themselves and the ones closest to the plane would be crushed.

[@pizzas4breakfast]

Alot.

[@bigredwolf6]

Well considering it would bee a lot of bees, so much so that you’d have to include multiple species which would kill each other.

[@walkinmn]

r/theydidthemath already answered that (although i think the amount of weight the bees can carry is wrong) www.reddit.com/r/theydidthemath/comments/4t2jag/request_how_many_bees_would_it_take_to_carry_a/

[@WillowHY]

So lets math this out. Let's start by calculating how much force in newtons we need. We need 4.5 newtons per pound to cancel gravity, more to generate actual lift. As a bee's maximum flight speed is 0.75mph, we'll say 5 newtons per pound. An average sized plane (and one that looks like the one in Bee Movie) is a 737 that weighs up to 175,000lbs. So we can calculate that it needs 875,000N. I found that 4000 average sized bees weigh 1lb. I found a study that bees generate about 20N per kilogram, or 2.2lbs. So if we math that again, we get 875,000 / 20 = 43,750kg, or 96452.24lbs of bees. Times that by 4000 and we get.... 385,808,960 bees required....to move a plane at 0.75mph. Average honey bees have a footprint of 75mm, that is the area they take up on a surface. To pack them all on the surface of a plane, you'd need 28,935,672m^2. I started calculating the surface area of a 737, but I stopped after just the main body of the plane came up to just over 5600m^2. So there's not nearly enough surface area for all those bees. And, you know, they can't fly nearly fast enough.

What about the low edge retention of silver, it would need to be sharpened after, or ever durring every fight, so the blade would have to be replaced often

[@pascageorge950]

Silver is a poor material to build a sword from: a) it has a higher density than steel ~+20% which means it will be heavier b) it has a much lower hardness; even Sterling alloys are low on the Rockwell scale compared to hardened steel c) silver/steel welding (forged) is not feasible, as by the time the steel gets to 900-1100 C the silver would be liquid or having the steel at 700C would not be enough to weld it. In other words, you would not have a solid built weapon. Most probably the outer silver layer would break off (if work hardened enough) or dent/chip at the first blow. d) because of point c) maintenance for such a sword would be hard, as you would need to resharpen/reforge/patch the silver outer layer. If you do not, and moisture enters between the steel and the silver, you will have created a battery that will slowly erode the iron from the steel into rust, weakening the blade. e) in mythbuster fashion I built a Silver(Argentium) dagger (1000$ materials) and it performed worst than a 1$ steel one. Looks amazing though!

[@ixhpix]

Hey Kyle, I wanted to mention something about the second to last correction. Yes, the monsters could be overly sensitive to silver ions, but honestly it doesn't even have to seem like some crazy anaphylactic shock. If a small scrape from a silver sword could have a localized effect (think neuromuscular blockade) this could easily tip the balance of the fight. Doesn't matter how strong the monster is, if it can't use its limbs, it dies. The chemistry is pretty simple and it could also explain why monsters can't use magic if it works by inhibiting the neuro system. The vast majority of monsters do not wear any form of armor so cheap nicks or even parries with a silver sword could in theory be enough. PS Love the show. Please more episodes on the Witcher :D

[@amandagifford1357]

Thanks for the great episode Kyle as well as the Because Science team. I wish to show my respect by challenging you to a nerd duel and proposing an alternative theory. I hypothesize that magical beings have an extreme inborn autoimmune response (allergy) to silver which causes their immune to attack itself. This condition could quickly lead to death in a few sword strokes if the monsters arn't carrying a epipen. I know someone (not a magical beast) who can have a reaction if they eat with silverware so I know metal allergies are a thing.

9:26 Maybe you wouldn't need a lethal dose for silver to be effective, if silver damaged things like platelets at the site of a wound, it could prevent or reduce clotting and cause monsters to bleed more from an attack with a silver weapon than they would from a standard weapon.

[@MrCreamster20]

So for a pre-thought experiment to the next video i'll describe something that is exactly like it. In Destiny 2's first campaign The Red War; the Cabal having just destroyed another sun somewhere else in the universe move this sun destroying weapon(called the Almighty) to the one we call home. The way "it works" is by synchronizing itself with the magnetic field of whatever sun it's sitting 1AU away from while feeding material from a nearby planet in pulses every 30ish sec(there'll be plenty of videos showing you the scale and some of the workings if you're interested and don't already play it). Once this weapon is "linked' it can't be unlinked or said sun goes boom, so you as the guardian instead sabotage the cooling vents then overload the core and escape before being blown up; key thing to note is with the weapon core disabled the magnetic link is still active but the weapon is no-longer "functional". The scale of this Almighty is 1 Deathstar high and 6ish Deathstars wide shaped like a double plane wing with a Deathstar in it's centre which houses the weapon core. Everything else on this massive space construct serves as material processing, storage and conveyance("simulated high speed gravity conveyance") with the incoming planet material splitting into 8ish seperate "gravity streams" across the entire length on both "wings". Be sure to give it a look as it might help with your size and explaination arguments. Note: This game tech-wise belongs to the category that is known as "in an alternate universe"; for those who haven't heard of this phrase before, it's simply take the universe we know presently with our current understanding of all fields of technology(not just digital but also biology, material science etc...) and change whatever you want to make it fit what your trying to achieve story wise.

9:00 First off I severely appreciate this content! Minute correction, instead of "sharply angled guard" believe "forward swept quillions" would be the technical term. (Almost certainly misspelled that I'm basically a literate and only saved by speech to text)

For anyone who finds it hard to believe that water can be toxic, there was a student who died from it at the college I went to but the year before I first attended. He was being hazed to get into a fraternity through drinking games. However, he was also forced to drink galleons of water between alcohol sessions. This would have changed the chemistry in his blood by both diluting it, causing hyponatrimia (a lack of sodium in the blood). His death lead to a crack down on several fraternities and sororities on campus so severe that being a part of one was grounds for permanent dismissal from the college. The one fraternity's leadership was arrested and convicted in the student's death.

12:45 there's a film concerning the sun destroying itself and humans finding a way to survive. I think I've mentioned this film before. The Wandering Earth (2019). The sun is dying and humans create huge rockets on earths surface to push the earth out of its gravitational orbit towards hopefully a new solar system to connect to. They try to make use of Jupiter as a gravity assist, which has some drawbacks. I recommend watching it.

I'd like to believe that the silver sword doesn't necessarily poison the monster, but instead prevents the monster from regenerating and healing the wounds. So it's real the slashing and stabbing that kills it.

[@Firabe]

Hey Kyle, I really love your show! :D Well the sun is exploding constantly over and over. But if you mean like finally BOOM. Then I would assume we would all burn crispy 8 minutes after that.

A girl actually died from a Water Drinking contest on a local radio station a bit ago

[@jonathankrailler1255]

If you factor in some sort of increased regeneration than the affect of the silver particles could have a magnified affect due to quicker circulation this would make a steel sword much less effective and significantly increase the deadliness of a silver coated sword. Also love the show.
