The mystic tube slows down the falling.
It takes three times longer to fall through the alu tube than the plastic tube.
The magnet creates electicity as it falls through the metal tube which then acts as a frictionless brake upon the magnet. If you get a magnet out of an old disc drive you will have a very powerful neodymium magnet. Drop it through a length of 22mm copper pipe and amaze everyone with it.
By crazeygrazey 1177230307Interesting, but has no bearing on a video featuring an aluminum tube. The video is just lame - provide an aluminum tube and a plastic tube with identical internal diameters and prove that they're both smooth inside and then we'll talk.
By Johannsen 1177358462After that video we need an anti-crap video device installing in Metacafe.
By PorkyPig 1179018383whether it's aluminum or copper doesn't matter as long as the metal has at least some magnetic properties.
By rseungmina 1177530305Actually aluminum and copper do not have magnetic qualities at all. Magnets do not stick to either, which is why it seems surprising why a magnet will slow down in them. It is due to the metals being conductors which cause an electric field which in turn cause a secondary magnetic field other than the magnet which the magnet interacts with which slows it down. This effect can be very impressive with a copper pipe and a very strong magnet. It you look down the pipe as it falls it may look as if it is tumbling in slow motion as it falls.
By bhornbuckle75 1199748633Have you herd of a little thing called physics and a little thing called lenz's law. The metal doesn't have to be magnetic it only has to be a strong conductor. The stronger the conductor the stronger the eddy current and the slower the magnet moves. Hint on why plastic pipes don’t work.
By farkusmisher 1178002091It's just plain magic, any fool can see that! Just ask David Copperfield.
By skin horse 1178085035There ain't a metacafe logo you must have stolen it =P lol just joking nice vid!!!
By mike_cam 1177954328But reading the description I assume its some sort of magnetism.
But we'll see
to the pipe. When a magnetic field passes over a conduting metal, it forces electron to move through the metal. This is how the electricity you use in your house is made. And electrical current produces a electro magnetic field. So when the magnet is passing through the tube it's creating a EMF field and slowing it's own self down because the magnet is reacting to the current. Copper pipe works better for this trick. It's not anti gravity, it's magnetic fields.
