Max now it's time for one of my favorite scientific terms the Magnus effect I'm Magnus and here's my effect no, the Magnus effect has to do with things that spin things like these cups and here's a great little Magnus Effect Flyer, you can get

home

, it's very

easy

, get two Styrofoam cups and tape them to the bottom with duct tape, then get some rubber bands and make a long one by tying them together, take the elastic and wrap it around the glass like this then hold the elastic at the bottom, remember like this and then let them go, they fly up and out.

The reason it rises and stays in the air is because it is spinning creating moving air over the top. Moving air has a lower pressure, which means it's pushed up by the higher pressure below and that's called coming, oh, come on, oh, now, um, the magnetic effect, yeah, so let's maximize it, Magnus, look how much better it sounds, no, no, Max, Max, check it out, check it out, Magnus Flyer. Elastic Slingshot with Holder 2.0, wrap it around, oh remember, for the Magnus Effect to work, your cups have to rotate like this, the front part rotates up, oh, and there you have it, the Magnus Effect.

Hey Magnus, I'm taking over the show, it's science now, Magnus. My effect slightly improves the name of science TV shows? Oh hello, here's a fun science experiment you can do with science and friction together. Take two books, place them on top of each other and separate them. Oh, there's not a lot of friction, but if you take the books and sandwich some of the pages, maybe three or four parts, and try again, pull them apart, they're a little bit harder to separate, that's because the friction from more Pages touching each other starts to add up, what if we took two books with many pages and, very carefully and meticulously, took each page individually, one at a time, overlapped them and moved them back and forth? .

These are two books completely mixed together. The elastic band is really just to hold the covers together. Alright, now the friction between all these pages when I try to separate them makes it practically impossible. Now two things happen here, firstly, when you start to separate the books, the pages start to stick together because they are squeezed together. together because you're pulling and they're squeezing and the fact that there are so many pages stuck together causes the friction to increase to a degree that's actually very impressive, but don't take my word for it, come on Max, here's two more. elastic books just to hold the covers, this one attached to the wall and I'm going to pull this one.

Science still doesn't believe me, let's max it out a little more. Two books with all the pages in layers bound together only by friction suspended. about a giant badat of slime, now let's see how much faith I have in the friction of science, yeah, okay, okay, oh no, okay, now let's go down, okay, wait and then science was close. Oops, uh, an egg, now you might think eggs are kind of flimsy. and they break quite easily, but the eggs are actually stronger than you think because they are a good egg shape. You see that the top of the egg is like a small bow and the bottom of the egg is also like a bow.

The arches distribute weight just as they do on a bridge. This is how you can experiment with how strong the eggs are. You should first get a pair of gloves to protect your hands from the shell in case something goes wrong. You should also tell an adult that you are doing this experiment because if it goes wrong you will have a mess to explain and you should also probably put on some safety glasses. Here's what you do: Take your egg and carefully place it in your palm just like that. and place it against your other palm and you're going to push directly on each side of the egg, start pushing harder and harder, you can even interlace your fingers and press even harder, and if you do it right, the egg won't break at all.

Amazing, right, so how much weight does an egg have? Can an egg support all my weight? Let's figure out that I'm going to lift my weight like this and get down and I can't hold my weight. Can my weight be supported by two? eggs, oh no, Phil's weight, four eggs, Oh, I thought they were going to do it, no, my weight with eight eggs, my weight can be supported by just eight eggs, science, careful, okay, pliers, dough, copper wire now, if you've already done the electromagnet experiment, here's another experiment that uses the same materials plus these neodymium magnets, some of the strongest magnets you can get, so here's what you need: a battery , some neodymium magnets the same diameter as your battery, copper wire and some pliers, so this is the first thing you should do. you put the batteries and the magnets together like this so what you want to do is bend the wire so it touches the top of the battery and it goes around the battery and then it touches the magnets on the bottom, this is what it would look like, I mean it could Since you can shape it any way you want, I have made a coil here and if you place it on the battery you will see that it just touches the top of the battery and the magnets at the bottom and if I let go of it, it spins.

It is a homopolar motor what happens is that the battery sends an electric current through the copper wire and that turns it into an electromagnet that is attracted to the magnets at the bottom and rotates so now let's maximize it aha a d battery Cel which is larger and of course, larger neodymium magnets and you do the same, you create a coil that only touches the battery on the top and on the magnet and turns the homopolar motor to the maximum, but don't worry, this It is not the largest size we are going to use. Come on, maximum homopolar motor.

I have 27 D Cel batteries, a giant copper tube and a neodymium magnet, so I'm going to do that and then we'll get rid of that, leave this, okay, so the first thing I do is connect the neodymium. magnet to the batteries and I have all the batteries taped together here so they stay like this uh giant stack of D cell batteries okay now what I do is take the copper Co take the copper coil um I need get, I need to get, okay, wait, I got this, I just need to get the flirt. I did it right, so I take the copper and put it on top of the Del Cel batteries like this and then I leave it. go, let it go, no, whoa, homopolar motor, okay, that didn't work, but that's okay, I like it when it doesn't work because that's science, it's not science if it works perfectly every time.

I mean, you have to have some room for improvement. This is Newton's cradle and it is a really cool toy that demonstrates all kinds of laws of motion, including Newton's third law. What you do is you take out this ball and when you hit these balls, they exert force on that ball so that it stops moving. but it exerts force on these balls that travels through the ball and makes it fly away like this in the end. Now there's a lot going on here, but you can really see how the force is equal, what you put in and what you get out if you use two balls, I swing two balls up and two balls come out that side.

Isn't it great now? It wouldn't be science, Max, unless we maxed it out, so come on, okay, this is one we built with bowling balls. bowling balls instead of smaller balls and I think it's going to work the same way, let's figure out that you throw one and yes, it works the same, okay, now let's try it with two balls, okay, there, wait, wait, wait and two balls, throw them. and two balls on that side, there you have it, Newton's third law, the new third law, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, help, all this pressure is crushing me, a whole kilogram is being pushed down on each square centimeter. of my body 103 kilos pics actually one kilogram for every square centimeter of your body is the exact type of pressure that you and I are under all the time every day we don't notice it because we are used to it but it sounds like a lot, isn't it good?

Here is an experiment you can do with a plastic bottle. Let's say at room temperature there are 10 million air molecules here, it doesn't really matter how many, but we'll say there are 10 million in a normal room. temperature What happens if I heat the air inside this bottle? This is warm water. What I'm trying to do is heat the air inside the bottle because the air molecules, when heated, move faster and need more space, so the 10 million air. The molecules are starting to escape from the mouth of the bottle and reduce the amount of air molecules inside and now I take the bottle out and cover it because the air molecules got hot and accelerated, they needed more space now there is less in the bottle.

There are about 4 million air molecules inside this bottle, but they are all hot air molecules and they have a higher pressure and you don't notice it because the air here doesn't crush the bottle, but look what happens if I cool the air inland. the bottle is ice water, so what is happening now is that the molecules are slowing down and need less space, so they need less space and are being crushed by the pressure on the outside of the bottle, it has been crushed due to the colder air. molecules do not need the same type of space as hot air molecules room temperature air has crushed the bottle the air inside has a lower pressure than the air outside quite surprising even more surprising when we maximize it this is a drum steel what What we have done is put a little water in it and we are heating it until it boils so that there is nothing but hot air inside the drum.

This is an airtight lid that we used to seal the drum and now we cool it. Hi Trevor. give me a hand ready one two 3 the lift that's good this pool is full of ice what we're doing now is cooling the steel drum, which will cool the air inside it, which means that eventually the air inside the steel drum steel will be much lower pressure than the air outside the steel drum because this steel drum has much more volume than a 2 liter bottle, the air takes much longer to cool. The other thing to think about is what a steel drum could support. on it and it wouldn't even get a dent, but sure enough, after a few minutes, who checked it, the barrel has totally crushed the low pressure air inside the barrel was not enough to withstand the force of the regular air pressure that you and I We walk. through every day the air pressure around us is enough to crush a steel drum how cool is that M this science is delicious this is root candy it's basically crystallized sugar and it's made by turning a solid into a liquid and then new to solid Again, this is how you can do it at

home

.

You need a container that you won't need for a while and some water. A bit of sugar. You can use brown or white. I like to wear brown and an adult. Here's why you need an adult. You want to dissolve three cups of sugar in each cup of water and you can't do that unless you heat the water, so get an adult a saucepan and heat the water, pour in the sugar and keep stirring until it's completely dissolved and then pour it in . Take your container and let it cool, then you will need a shish kebab skewer, which is something you can get at the supermarket, cut it to the right size so that it fits well in your container and then dip it in sugar and get some. coated crystals around the stick these are seed crystals and they start the whole process and now you have to wait for them to dry otherwise they will just fall off the stick when you put it in the water so I have one here that has dried , you'll also want something to keep it from falling on the top of the container so I'm going to use a pin and place it there and dip it into the container like that and now for the final step if you want you can add food coloring .

I like to use red because it reminds me of science and I'm going to use the stick to stir it up a little bit. There we go, now the sugar crystals dissolved in the water will slowly grow into the crystals already attached to the stick and will eventually grow into a rock candy, but it takes about a week, no, I'm just kidding, I already have one that is waiting, here we go, this one has been growing for about 7 days and voila, delicious candy Science Now, how could we improve this? I mean, it's crystallized sugar, it doesn't max out any more than that, yeah, it comes, this is a giant container of sugar water and I've been making a huge crystal of rock candy for a while, but it's getting too big to fit in the top of the container, so you know, I'm going to put it back. there and I chalk that up to science because, well, eating a rock candy crystal that big definitely wouldn't be good for my teeth, so yeah, here's something cool you can do with a pulley, these cubes are attached to the table through a pulley, there is nothing to hold them.

This table is raised except for the weight of the cubes pushing down the table, so if I removed the cubes from the table, the weight of the cubes lifts the table, but because the cubes are on the table, everything is inbalance, mind tilted, okay, wait. It gets better if I take a weight and put it on the table. The weight of the cubes is not enough to keep the table up so I have to add more weight to the cubes so that the cubes lift the table and there you have it. it's strange it's mind blowing it's science today we are combining two different chemicals to create a reaction sometimes chemicals can combine in a way that makes them very different from how they started for example now this is sodium or na on the periodic table Sodium tablets are in mineral oil because sodium reacts very strongly with water, even water in the air or especially water on my skin, watch what happens when I drop a sodium tablet into this beaker. water is very cold and very dangerous and this is chlorine or CL in the periodic table, chlorine gas is very poisonous, so what happens if we combine these two deadly substances?

We created some kind of super poison, something deadlier than anything known to science. causes fear and chaos and chemistry Laboratories all over the country no, we create good, normal salt table salt these two substances combine to make salt NA C something completely and totally safe come here three this is a climbing frog why does it climb thanks to The science? I pull this rope and then I pull that rope and I pull that rope and that rope and he climbs the ropes and well, because of the friction, the secret is two straws, the straws point away from each other at the bottom , this allows it to go up thanks to friction, look closer when I pull a string, it pulls straight, which makes the frog spin, that string slides through the straw because there is not much friction, but there is a lot of friction in the other side due to the angle. then one side of the rope goes down, which makes the other go up, which means that the frog goes up thanks to friction, so now we go all the way.

This is a super maximized climbing frog, just like the small version. I have a moving rope. Through two tubes, I pull one rope and the other is held by friction, then I switch and it works, it's just a lot harder to pull the ropes, but it totally works. Be very careful here and then with this one and then with that one and then with that one. one yes a giant climbing frog all because of friction mini ma here's another way to defy gravity using friction get a plastic water bottle and fill it with rice take two so take one bottle of plastic water and fill it with rice using a funnel and then take a shish. kebab skewer and you put it in the bottle and nothing happens, but if you tap the bottle down, the rice starts to compact a little better, look how the rice level is lower, which means you can add more rice, pack it in even more and I can even use something the same diameter as the mouth of the bottle, like a highlighter, and make sure all the rice is packed as tightly as possible.

Now the rice is actually packed in there and when I put the shish kebab skewer on. The friction between the pieces of rice and this wood is enough to lift the bottle using nothing but friction, now we go full throttle. I filled this 20 liter water cooler jug ​​with rice and it is really very heavy. I wanted to see if I could lift. It uses nothing but friction and this peg which is just a round piece of wood. Here we go, science. I would max it out even more, but I don't think I can lift more. Alright.

I could place Newton's first A. in 60 seconds, Newton's first law says that an object in motion tends to stay in motion, so why don't you see? If I cast this, it doesn't stay moving, it doesn't continue, it slows down and falls to the ground. Well, the whole LW says that an object in motion tends to stay in motion until an external force acts on it, so what forces act on this well? Gravity pulls you towards the ground and friction, specifically air friction, slows you down and stops you. Now, if you had something very light with a lot of surface area, it would really be affected by air friction, you couldn't throw it very far no matter how hard you tried, so there you have Newton's first law.

The object in motion tends to stay in motion unless it is affected by an external force, such as friction, such as air friction, so there you have it. Pressure occurs when you squeeze or compress something. Solids do not compress very well. I'll show you. Solid, is it compressing? Not well. Liquids also don't compress very well. You can demonstrate this for yourself by taking a plastic water bottle, filling it to the brim with water, putting the cap on and squeezing it, you will find that you can't really squeeze the bottle. a lot, but if you empty half the water, no, don't pour it on the ground and then put the cap back on the bottle and try to squeeze it out, you will see that you can squeeze it out a lot more, that's because the gases are compressed. much easier than solids or liquids this is what is happening, let's say this container is any container and these magnets are air molecules.

Now I'm going to place the magnets from pole to pole so that they repel each other and want to stay a certain distance from each other. Just like air molecules, there we go to a pressure vessel of normal gas. Now notice what happens when I add more gas molecules, they start to compress and if I add more, the amount of space each one gets becomes less and less. Now this container is under a lot of pressure, these molecules really want to escape out the top of the container, but they can't because I'm holding them down. If I take something like this plunger and push them down even further, now they're really under pressure.

They want to get out but they can't because I'm holding them back now look what happens when I let them go they all come out the top and the container has returned to normal gas pressure, that's what happens when we put gas in a Container like this , these containers that hold compressed gas are made of solid steel because you need something really strong or it could explode if you put too much gas pressure in it, which is why they are only filled by professionals who know exactly how much pressure. what may be needed is the power of pressure.

Our maxed out mousetrap boat isn't the only way to give a boat propulsion. Let's look at another way using a balloon. Let's make a boat powered by a balloon. All you need is something that is yours. boat and a balloon, then you join them together, actually the best way to do it is to use a straw and join the balloon to the straw using a rubber band and then you join it to your boat using more rubber bands like this one that I have put. a nice ribbon on the top of the boat to make it look awesome and I also put a little lift in here using anything plastic to keep the straw nice and straight because the question is will our balloon powered boat work better if you push up inside? air or if it is pushing the water well, let's do a science experiment and find out the first version in the air, oh, almost to the end, now let's try with the straw like this so that it pushes towards the water.

It works much better, why because water? It is denser than air The air coming out of the straw has to push against something to make the boat move Water has more mass than air so pushing against the water has a better result Now let's maximize this is an air compressor well, actually that's it The air compressor, as you see the motor here, pushes air into a tank that works like a balloon and then it comes out through this long hose that works like a straw, so let's prepare a powered boat by air at maximum, ready as the small boat.

Pushing against the air doesn't produce much thrust, eh, it's not that good, but now let's put it in the water. Pushing against the water gives me much more thrust because water is denser than air. Boat with maximum air engine. Boat with maximum air engine. If that is. That's not me, this is a hydrophobic coating. Hydrophobic literally means afraid of water, but it is not actually afraid of water. The chemistry of a hydrophobic coating prevents water molecules from penetrating anything you spray it on. You can get this at the hardware store and if you want, maximum science, you can get an adult and think of the coolest thing you could spray with a hydrophobic coating.

I like to use things that don't do well when you put them in water like tissue paper, yeah, it doesn't look very good when it gets wet, here's a tissue paper coated with a hydrophobic coating, huh, weird? Or it works the same with a paper towel, a paper towel in water, a paper towel covered with a hydrophobic coating stays dry, or how about a muffin? Muffins don't really like water, it looks gross, but a muffin is cold. on a rare hydrophobic coating, just don't eat it, now is the time to maximize it. I have covered half of my lab coat with a hydrophobic coating and the other half without a hydrophobic coating.

A normal lab coat half of me is wet and the other half is dry, what's more, half of my equipment ended up wet and the other half I tried because the lab coat was protecting my equipment from getting wet. Now is the time to maximize it even more. We covered all my equipment with hydrophobic spray, my shirt, my pants, and my lab. coat, pants have been taped to rubber boots to keep water out and my shirt has been taped to my pants to keep water out, so here's the question: can I get in and out of the pool and stay dry?

In the pool, out of the pool and I'm still almost dry. This is what really happened. I got into the pool and realized I should have taped the pocket because all the water got in there and the rubber boots started filling up. I pulled up my rubber boots and now my whole leg is full of water because the hydrophobic coating doesn't let it out, so the hydrophobic coating doesn't stop the water from getting in, it now keeps it in. Let's take a closer look at Newton's third law. Newton's third law for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction okay let's look at it again when the sign hits me I exert a force on the sign in the opposite direction which causes the sign to stop moving it also exerts an equal force on my. making me fly in this direction now if I were to push this sign, not only am I pushing the sign this way but my feet are pushing against the ground in the opposite direction, it's good, it's actually easier to see if I'm not standing on the ground um, no, hold on, okay, so, uh, oh, okay, now that I'm hanging, I press the sign, but when I put force on the sign to make it go this way, I go in that direction, well, actually that's how it is.

It doesn't work as well because the sign isn't as heavy as I am, so he waits. I have this here, it's a barrel and it has stuff in it and it weighs as much as I do, so watch if I push the barrel. so I get away from him as much as he gets away from me, so there you have it Newton Newton's third law not to hold Newton Newton's third law Newton's third law okay, let's go Newton's third law for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction, inertia, what? Alright? It is directly related to Newton's first law of motion.

An object in motion tends to stay in motion. An object at rest tends to remain at rest. Let's do an experiment. Here is an object right now. It is at rest. You might think that means it has no inertia, but that's not true. Inertia just means the tendency of an object to continue doing what it is doing at the moment. It's not doing anything, but if I wanted to overcome its inertia, I would have to put in energy and now that I have it, it moves on its own. It has inertia, if I wanted to stop it, I would have to overcome its inertia, its tendency to keep moving there.

I got exactly this far, now let's max it out. I'm adding these weights to the cart now it has a lot more maximum mass which means it has a lot more inertia and its tendency to do nothing, but this time it has a lot more inertia, if I wanted it to go at the same speed as before I would have to try a lot harder now that it's going at the same speed. The same speed as before, but now it has a lot more inertia, so stopping it will be more difficult, so there you have the inertia.

Things tend to keep moving or stay still and the more mass, the more inertia. Min, dear Phil, I can't believe you did everything. episode about boat propulsion and you didn't use the best thing out there to make a boat move a propeller honestly a fan well let's talk about propulsion oh that's cool this is fan mail get it because it's a fan, anyway, a fan pushes air in the same way. a boat propeller pushes water, they are both fluid and behave the same way now, if you look closely at a fan, its blades are curved, air or water is trapped on this side and then pushed out on the curve to make goes that way and the faster it turns, the better it works.

Now this is a propeller driven boat and what you do is wind the propeller. Here I have an elastic band to store the amount of energy that I put in and then you put it in. in the water, the propeller rotates and the boat moves forward, it is being propelled by the propeller, soThey hold together very well, that's why you can't build a sand castle with dry sand, but if you wet the sand a little, the grains of sand will hold. They stick together a little better due to the surface tension of the water, which is why it's easier to build a sand castle with wet sand, but they still won't hold much weight, but if you add something that creates even more friction between the grains of sand, like for example This sandpaper will hold the weight, so here's what you do: take the window screen and cut it into circles.

Make sure you get permission from an adult first. Well, put a layer of sand, pack it and place it on a window screen circle and a layer. of sand, pack it into the circle of the window screen, then you guessed it. Layer of sand, pack it into the window screen circle. The window screens will add more friction between the grains of sand and make your sand castle strong with the power of science. and then you can put a lot of weight on it and there you have sand with the power of science, okay, I had to max it out, let's see how strong the science sand really is, uh, science mousetrap, like I said, let's use it. mouse traps mouse traps as a form of propulsion that is the force that makes things move and we are going to make a boat move and what is it that will make this boat become a mouse oh oh it's not there set up sorry really nervous anyway we're going to use a mouse trap and don't worry no mice will be harmed during the making of this or any Max science episode but mouse traps are really cool because they can store energy in the spring if you see there is a spring that makes this rod want to go back, but we can put energy into the spring and store it and then use that energy as the spring unwinds to propel our boat, but it's a little more complicated than this , so let's go.

I'll show you what we're going to do is build this is the mous trp boat and it works like this. I have the mouse trap and it is attached to a long arm, that arm has a rope on it and it spins the paddle wheel and as the mouse trap unwinds the paddle wheel spins that way which pushes the boat forward It seems a little complicated now, but it's actually quite simple to do and this is what you need. My mouse trap boat is made with styrofoam sticks and elastic bands. You'll also want a pencil, plastic drink lids, a shish kebab skewer, small zip ties, some rope, and of course the mouse leash.

Mouse straps. You may hurt your fingers, so ask an adult for help when using them. Start with two pieces of Styrofoam. I like to cut mine this way, but the only thing that really matters is that they are the same size as your paddle wheel. Styrofoam circle with a pencil in the middle and cross it like this to make the paddle wheel. I use cut pieces of craft sticks or they can be plastic and I make some cuts and then I place them like this and that's what you do your paddles on the paddle wheel because that's the wheel and that's the paddle wheel, that's why they call it . give strength to the styrofoam, next is the mouse trap that you want to glue to a frame of four craft sticks, attach the frame to the boat with elastics and then attach the shishkabob skewer or a pencil to the mouse trap with zip ties .

I like to put some Make sticks on the end to make it easier to tie the string to it, wrap the other end around the paddle wheel pencil and remember you need enough string to make your stick lie flat, okay let's try it, wrap the paddle wheel, that's how it will be. A little strong as the spring will spring back, but that's where the energy is stored and when you're done, put it in the water and let it go. The paddle wheel spins because the mousetrap is transferring energy we put in earlier and it leaves. All the way we stored energy in the tension of the spring, now that tension pulls on the mouse trap, the stick and the rope that spins the paddle wheel and makes the boat move.

Mous trp motor boat if you want more detailed instructions or other designs. search for the mouse trp boat and there you have it, the paddle wheel boat powered by mous trp and this is what we are going to max out today. Come on, greetings, maxit science. My name is Phil and this is science. Max

experiments

in general today. We're going to see earthquakes, earthquakes, uh, today we're going to see how to build something that was supposed to happen today. Let's see how to build something that can withstand the shaking of an earthquake. This happens when two plates on the surface of the Earth rub against each other and that causes the ground to shake, sometimes it shakes a little, sometimes it shakes a lot, you probably don't live in a place where there are earthquakes, but if you ask a adult what to do during an earthquake to be safe modern buildings built in seismic zones are designed to resist tremors, but how do scientists and engineers build a building that can withstand the tremors of an earthquake well?

What we're going to see today, the first thing we have to do is simulate an earthquake, we're going to build a shaker table and this is what you need: two books and two books, four rubber bands and four, four rubber balls, wait, okay, four, four rubber balls. Well, the first thing you want to do is take your four rubber bands and wrap them around your books, put one set on one side and one set on the other side until you have that, then you take your four balls and stick them between the books. In the middle is the area, but you don't want to have them too close to the edges and now two in the back and taada, you've made your own shaking table, what are you shaking, you ask.

I'll show you how you build a tower like this one here I built it with building blocks so here's what you need to do: You'll need your base to be securely attached to the Shaker table. I use painter's tape because it will come off again without damaging the books and what I want to find. What you need to know is how much you can shake this Tower before it falls apart, done and away it goes, and when you've done that, what you need to do is be the ultimate scientist and design another Tower and tape it to your shaking table. and see if you can make this tower fall in an earthquake and if you built it very well you probably won't, but you don't have to just use building blocks, there are all kinds of other materials you can use, look at this building it's really high and you'll see there's a cup on top and that's for a big baseball put it on top and that means there's a weight up there and then we shake it and see what happens oh oh no oh there goes this It's water, things that float in water like pool noodles and wooden and toy boats and now we're going to do an experiment on how paint floats in water, how is this supposed to work again oh oh?

I'm supposed to get the paint out of the can. First, this is a fun experiment that you can do at home, all you need is a container with some water and paint, but not just any paint, special paint that you use for hydro dipping, that's Hydro, which means water and dipping, which means dip, carefully pour the paint into the water and add. some different colors then take a stick to twirl it in a pattern then you get something you want to paint and you place it carefully but don't take it out as soon as you put it in you have to spread the paint remover because it will stick when you take it out again and then when you take it out, who dipped it in water, let it dry and then you have a cool painted toy, let's do other things, this is a bicycle helmet if you put tape on it. what you're painting you can remove later to make parts that aren't painted skateboard, oh that's cool now to maximize it. hydro dipping pants wearing the pants when you do this is very complicated and not something you should try at home, but the results were not bad science pants science pants science pants one of the ways you can experience the power of water It's watching her wash away the dirt.

You can experiment with this yourself by making your own erosion table to fill a plastic tub with. sand and tilt it up cut a hole in the tub at the bottom end and attach a hose with a trickle of water to the top end then to complete your model fill it with a happy little town. This small model shows how rivers cut their course to the ocean following the lowest point. Try to design your city and the terrain layout so that the river surrounds the buildings. I will see you later. I'm going to swim in the river.

Now there are many ways to experiment. change the amount of water or the inclination of the angle look at the ground everything is eroding here or the way the city is laid out every time you do it the river goes in a different direction and have fun oh pH it's me I'm tired I'm just going to lie down and that's the power of water this is a bouncing basketball this is a bouncing golf ball but it never bounces as high as where I dropped it but look how I put the golf ball on top of the golf ball basketball, wow, why does the golf ball bounce higher than where I dropped it?

How is it possible? Just bounce the golf ball from 1M height, so what is happening? When the basketball hits the ground, it is compressed, storing the potential. The energy from your bounce is about to return that energy when you bounce again, but this energy works like a springboard for the golf ball and since the golf ball has much less mass than the basketball, the upward kinetic energy of the basketball is given to the ball. golf ball, so let's maximize ball on ball on ball three ball bounce did you see that ball on ball on ball on ball quad ball bounce no, wait, it turns out that four balls land directly on top of one the other?

It's quite difficult, so we know that the mass of the ball is important. Why don't we maximize it in a different way? This is a Swiss exercise ball. It has a lot more mass than a golf ball, so let's try it. Energy transfer between balls is a great way to lose golf balls. Hey, science maximizes, I'm slippery, but that's okay because today we're talking about friction. Friction is a force that is everywhere and occurs when something rubs against something else which we do many times. things to increase friction like wearing shoes with large soles and we can do things to reduce friction like the experiment we are doing today, we are going to build a floating device and it is very

easy

, you take some cardboard and you cut it. in a circle like this, then make a hole in the middle of the circle.

You might want to have an adult help you with that and then grab a plastic drink bottle cap like this one. I like the ones you use in sports. bottles because they have a little nozzle that opens or closes and then you stick it around the circle and you get this, then you need a balloon, so you blow up the balloon. I know you know that step and then you twist the balloon so that it doesn't So that it doesn't slip away when it's nice and twisted, you can stick it over the lid of the drink bottle like this and then unscrew it and that's why I like to use the lids of plastic for drink bottles that come from sports bottles because you can open them whenever you want and when you make your puck move on a cushion of air, which reduces the friction with the table and is almost like sliding on ice.

You can also use CDs if you want to do a different design, just make sure you use CDs I never want to listen to again now if any of this is too fast don't worry you can always go to the Science Max website where we have all the instructions. Greetings, Science Max starts today we are using soft drinks in our experiments and a soft drink. The drink is just water with carbon dioxide bubbles dissolved in it, so I thought that since we exhale carbon dioxide, I could make a fizzy drink by simply blowing bubbles into this water, but it doesn't seem to work.

I don't see any. bubbles, right? Water absorbs carbon dioxide gas, but I don't have a carbonated drink. It's a strange time to consult the science book. Oh, to make bubbles you have to have pressure, so this is an air compressor, it takes air and compresses it. it puts it under pressure, so the container must be pressurized. Well, when you get a container with a fizzy drink, the carbon dioxide gas is placed there under pressure and it stays there under pressure until you release it, that's the sound of pressure. is released and when it is released the carbon dioxide gas starts to expand and when it expands it creates bubbles and that is what makes your fizzy drink this process takes a little while to finish but eventually it will become flat there will be no more bubbles, but what if there was?

There is a way to release all that carbonation in one go and for this experiment all you need is your favorite brand of soda science Max diet brand science Cola 100% science zero calories and your favorite sweets like these scientific experts the mint flavor which comes from pure science, so all you need to do is open this, open this, take one of these and put it here with an adult's permission because it canget a little dirty. What's going on here is all the carbonation. What was in the bottle is now being released much more quickly than it would have been before.

Why does this happen? If you look at a carbonated drink, you will see that the bubbles do not come from everywhere, but from within. the glass or in this case a lot of it comes from the straw and that's because the carbon dioxide bubbles like to find a little imperfection, something to grab onto to expand and bubble, and a candy like this has a lot of small amounts. microscopic imperfections, so when you drop it there are a lot more places for the bubbles to stick and that makes the carbonation happen much faster, but remember, remember this is not a chemical reaction, it's all about the carbonation, so that's what we're going to do.

To look at air pressure today, more pressure, less pressure and of course, we're going to max out this experiment, nothing like a glass of sparkling water and now there are ways to carbonate water at home with something like this, science Max . carbonation station you have a bottle of compressed carbon dioxide gas that is connected, you take a bottle of tap water, plug it in and carbonate, voila, carbonated water, but this is science. Max, why just carbonate water? Let's carbonate everything, carbonate the pickle juice, it's actually amazing milk. Like milk meets water, very strange, chocolate milk, oh no, that's much better. carbonated mustard, carbonated tomato juice, carbonated hot sauce, no wait, carbonated, that was a hot sauce, no carbonated clam chowder, oh there you go, carbonation is no longer just for water, definitely not for soup of clams no, that's just a big plate of no, never again greetings science Max mites my name is Phil and today is moving day in science Max experiments in general let's see where I put this um, this is probably a good place today we are moving air You probably don't think that moving air will have a big effect, but you'd be surprised what you can do just by moving air, but don't worry, we're not just going to move air in boxes, we're going to build a rocket and this rocket use the science of stomping something with your foot, this is a Stomp Rocket and it works by stomping on this plastic bottle and the air shoots through this tube and pushes the rocket into the sky and this is how you can build your own and remember that If I go too fast, don't worry, all the steps are on the website so you can follow them at your own pace, all you need is a 2 liter plastic bottle, three types of masking tape, electrical tape, and tape. science science tape is the same as invisible tape, but I use this type of tape for science, then you want some plumber's pipes and construction paper to make your real rocket, first you need to take the plumber's pipe and cut it into three. lengths and when I say you I mean an adult because you need to use a saw, so you cut it into a long piece, a short piece and an offset piece.

We want to make a long tube at the top and then we also want to make a tube at the bottom so we can connect our 2L bottle and there we go, ready to go, but of course it doesn't stay on top so we have to connect it to a base and it will look like this and you will see It has been taped here and I have used electrical tape and I have wrapped that part around now building the rocket, wrap the paper around the tube and tape it with your science tape, tape the top clothing so that the air does not escape and then cut. a semicircle to make the nose cone and three rings for the boosters and tape them to the bottom, there you have it, the rocket fits into the tube just like that and when you step on this bottle it launches, but here is the most important part, the most important rule. of launching rockets, shoot rockets outside, let's go once you get out into a nice open area and bring your safety glasses, all you need to do to get the Stomp Rocket to work is of course stomp on it, done, here we go, three two . one who sees that was amazing today we're going to take a closer look at chemistry oo chemistry is the science of atoms and molecules, the things that make up all matter and how they interact with each other, take for example, This glow stick actually doesn't.

I don't take it because I need it. The glow stick doesn't glow until you, the glow stick doesn't glow until you break the barrier and you mix the two chemicals together and they start to glow, uh, all right, uh, chemistry, now the chemical reaction. What we're looking at today is the old vinegar and baking soda volcano, but this reaction has nothing to do with volcanoes, it's chemistry. Now this experiment is totally safe, but I recommend that you get permission from an adult before doing it because it's very messy uh um, yeah, first you're going to want baking soda and vinegar, these are your two main ingredients, but you're also going to want dish soap. and red food coloring if you want it to look a little more like lava.

Now I like it. Mix the baking soda red food coloring and the dish soap together with some warm water so all you have to do is add the vinegar and when you do this this is what happens and there you have the chemical reaction . Now I know what you're thinking. Are you thinking Phil, how much vinegar or baking soda do I use? I'm not going to tell you that this is where you can be science. Maxim mites try different amounts more vinegar, more baking soda, more dish soap, who knows, write down the amounts each time you use it and find out what amounts work best, that's called science.

Here's another fun way to play with elastic. Strength, grab a carton of milk. I prefer science. Max Milk because it is the creamiest cream. 2% cream. 100% science. Wrap some rubber bands around it with a paddle. stick on the bottom like feet, then take a clamshell package that wraps almost anything you buy these days and cut out a square or a rectangle, then wrap some duct tape around that square with an elastic and place the elastic on the feet of your milk carton, then roll it up and make sure to back up so your paddle wheel boat moves forward when you place it in the water and there is a paddle wheel boat, now it's time to maximize it with the maximum elastic force of SS.

I need a paddle wheel boat mattress, I need a better name, but I have made a giant paddle wheel boat that will work with elastic force because I have surgical tubes as elastics and that is an air mattress and then I use some wood to hold. all together and of course I need a paddle wheel and what better thing to use in a pool than a fin board. Okay, here we go, normally you can't wear your clothes or shoes in the pool, but I got special permission. Because of the signs, also, I'm not worried at all, so I didn't wear my swimsuit because I think I can do this whole experiment without even getting wet, that's how confident I am.

Now, we will do the hard part. get on the mattress, okay, here we go, SS Science, hey SS Science, that's a great name for this style, it works great and I managed to say totally dry, eh, well, almost oh, you thought I was going to fall in the pool , But I did it. No, uh-oh, my fin board stopped moving and I'm, I'm in the middle of the pool, almost yeah, I didn't think about this no, no, no, that's not going to work, maybe it will, maybe it will. make. Wait, moving air is a lot of fun, especially if you use one of these, a Vortex Cannon, they're pretty awesome and use some pretty amazing science.

I'll show you how to build one, it's pretty simple, all you need is a plastic cup. You want a balloon, something round, some elastic scissors or a cutter and a pen, this is what you have to do, you take the balloon and cut it right where it widens, you take the mouth of the glass right there and you have to stretch the balloon over the top and then you want to put an elastic around it to hold it in place and this is now a surface on top and that's what you're going to use to pull back and create your burst of air, but of course the air isn't going to go out. anywhere until you make a hole in the bottom, so this is what you do: you take your round thing and you draw a circle and you take your knife or scissors and an adult and ask them to help you cut a hole and when you pull back on the balloon a burst of air comes out of the hole but the air has an interesting shape now I know what you're thinking, you're thinking Phil Air is invisible, you can't tell what shape it has, well I can show you, come on, this It's my maxed out Vortex Cannon, it's made from a trash can.

I have a hole here and this is a shower curtain with a ball that I can grab and pull and then it shoots forward like this now it makes a big Puff of air but again the air is invisible so we don't know what shape it is , but I can help with that because I have a fog machine. I fill the inside of the trash can so we can see what the air is. doing when I shoot The Vortex can okay come here ready oh okay ready check it out the vortex cannon shapes the air into a ring called the Vortex it makes a ring it's actually kind of a donut because Due to its shape, air in a Vortex can move much further than air that has no shape.

Vortex Cannon air that has a shape goes much further than air that has no shape and is ALS also a lot more fun, as you may have already guessed today. about friction and here's a really easy friction experiment you can do at home. All you need is a piece of wood, you don't need the frame and you don't have to do anything fancy, just place one end on a sofa. or a coffee table and make a nice ramp, then you want something to slide down that ramp and I like to use a piece of wood. Now check it out.

Wooden ramp. Wood block. The friction is so much that the wood slides there. Now, what I like. what you have to do is take a little flag and mark the results recording the results is a good science now this is where it becomes fun to get another surface and attach it to the wood like carpet and wood, let's see how far this goes H is not so good , okay, record the results cardboard ooh very well made cardboard foam and this wood has been waxed like floor wax, which makes it nice and slippery, let's see how it works ooh and now the Ultimate Ice adhered to the wood, this in it's actually harder to do than I thought ok come on Try it on ice the clear winner no big surprise and get this once you've done all that you can change the surface of the ramp you can pass to waxed wooden cardboard and well, yes, you get the idea. record all the results, compare them and that's it, experiment with the friction ramp and that's what we're going to maximize today, so come on, this is a rope, you can pull a rope but you can't push a rope well. you can push a rope, you really can, okay, leave it, leave it, this little contraption works like a baseball pitching machine, but in miniature, look, there are two motors here and the wheels spin together to shoot things like this, things like this craft clock.

This is, let's look at that again, but now watch as I pass a big loop of rope through which the rope pushes, how does this happen? Hello, I don't suppose it's the Magnus effect, uh, no, it's not the Magnus effect, no, that's fine. I'll be in my cape if you need me, okay, bye, where was I? uh I think you were on uh the reason this works is to properly push the rope, how does this happen? It's all due to inertia, check it out, the wheels are pushing the rope. through fast it has some weight and it has some speed which means it has some inertia so when it goes this way it wants to keep going like this but it gets to the end and then because it's a loop it's absorbed again by this.

In this way, which means that all this inertia can be overcome gravity by pushing directly science, so here we go amazing, the friction ramp is quite simple, you just take, I have wooden blocks with different surfaces amazing and then I just simply them you slide down. ramp, okay, it's cool, yeah, what if we max it out? What if it's us, are we a block of wood? No, I mean, like we're on the block of wood and then we can try to change the bottom. I guess a block of wood isn't the right thing to use, right, yeah, maybe we could use it as a sled, oh yeah, okay, like a right, like a snow sled, that's a great idea, okay, I'll tell you.

We count what I will do as a portal on a sleigh for us, right? You sure want a portal Ed it I'm sure just stay, just stay back, okay though, here we go, we max out the friction slide, are you ready, Sarah, yeah, I'm ready, okay, here we go, Sarah and I We pushed each other on the sled that was. fun but it was also exhausting it's uh it's pretty hard this is my turn my turn okay oh yeah who friction yes friction yes yes friction but we soon realized that it would be quite difficult to measure how much friction there was, you know how hard you were pushing.

I had no idea how hard I was pushing, but that doesn't really help scientifically. Then what do we doIt's amazing, so the only thing it didn't, it didn't shoot up into the air, although yeah, it's because the top is quite open, so you would need to squeeze it for it to shoot. Oh yeah, because we're using a kind of square and rectangular prism. container, we should get something that maybe looks more like our vinegar bottle, because there's a lot of room down here, but then it forces it to have a narrower opening at the top, like a volcano.

And what else can we do to make it uniform? most powerful to maximize it vinegar has only 5% acid the rest is water so you can try to use 100% so what kind of acid is vinegar? It's acetic acid, so vinegar is actually only 5% acetic acid, yeah, and 95% water, so you can. get 100% acetic acid, yes can you get 100% acetic acid? Yeah, great, why don't we get a funnel-shaped container like a volcano and 100% acetic acid? We'll do it again, sounds good, okay, let's do it. he
