Hockey Puck made of Atrium Berium Copper oxide which is high temperature super conducter discovered about 20 years ago..Put the puck in Liquid Nitrogen and cool it down and it becomes super conducter....
can somebody explain to me how the puck stays OVER the rail, and doesn't just slip off to either side? i am very interested in physics but i have no formal education in these somewhat advanced topics

How can this guy lift it out of liquid nitrogen without gloves on??

By Silver Palm Trees 1147722837 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveAlthough liquid nitrogen is -196C its still safe to handle because of its boiling effect. On anything warm a layer of nitrogen gas forms thereby protecting his fingers for a short period.
It'd only be dangerous if any of any of the liquid nitrogen became trapped

you mean like if he had a cut on his finger? how dangerous would it be? what would happen to him in a case like that or other 'trappedness' that you refer to? thanks...
By Peikko 1155847705 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveThat's really interesting! Thanks for the information.
By Kapten-N 1148573061 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removeit wasnt that much and most of the liquid stuff was already gone to gas....thats all. he just have a very short contact with it, too.
By sebatan 1150543339 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removeprobably it isnt that cold that it will kill your finger.
By dave mech 1147707678 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removeuhh its around -270 degrees (Celsius)
By bleh 1147726275 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removethe temp is more like -200 C for pure liquid N2. And when ive put a small amount of dry ice on m hand it burns and thats at around -80 degrees C, So doing that would hurt like hell with N2
By ajw2255 1147800786 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removehe timed it so that the thing was cool enough to hold and then let go as it was getting far too cold (cuz it was cooling down)

CHECK FOR THE TIME......Pretty cool documentary...

By lklklklkllklklklklkl 1147664585 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removesounds like a way for the superconduct market to secure another monopoly position, instead of using a simple opposing magnet principle. What are they thinking of spraying the rails with liquid nitrogen as a form of maintenance to keep the opposing factor alive?
By Konundrum 1193495851 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removethis very interesting video demonstrates the potential of YBCO superconductors. unfortunately they are not very practical for use in maglev trains on earth at this time. the YBCO superconductor must be cooled to liquid nitrogen temperatures which consumes a lot of energy and is expensive. the YBCO superconductor is also a ceramic compound unlike normal metal conductors such as copper; you cannot easily form coils required for electric motors.
YBCO superconductors may in future find applications in deep space where cooling will not be required. These applications could include superconducting antenna and low noise microwave receiver circuits necessary for deep space to earth communications.
When they freeze worts on your hand it only hurts for a second and then your body heat will warm your fingers again, basically hes not a P***y !
By canuck_AB 1149288523 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveFreezing also produce burn
By bonggi 1176220395 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removehas one of the lowest temperatures nd almost reaches the absolut zero(-273.15).. it doesnt get colder than absolut zero.. at that stage everything just dissapears

By C64 1147966269 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removethese kind of clips coming. I've always said that there is alot more we could be doing with magnets. I definately think at some points we will be able to use magnetics in alot of different forms including transportation.
By SemiStoned 1147854916 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveLiquid Nitrogen is about 77.8 K, thats -196 celsius ... could hurt your finger if u give it the time

It's a fake.
this is the future of air travel ...the real ufo
By Oh.............. 1147721954 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removea train floating above the track, like a monorail, is only marginally more efficient than a train on non-deformable steel wheels on steel tracks - both require the same energy to overcome the force due to air resistance. Add to he equation the cost of producing monorails, and keeping them operational, and conventional trains win. This is why there are only a few hundred miles of operational monorail in the world, and millions of miles of steel track. It's a cool (quite literally) demonstration, but little more than that I'm afraid.

By MOPAR_Madness 1161725747 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveA regular train also has to deal with the friction caused by the wheels, the whole point of using electro magnetism is to make this friction almost 0, thats why the trains can get to much higher speeds.
I agree on the operational and manufacturing costs though
...getting a regular train to 500mph
By atomhead 1147808773 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removewrong
By Marcizzle 1147758633 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removerailroad trains have to deal with friction
plus this ride is way smoother
stop being a chicken and face technology
