Cool Ball Bearing Rocket!
- Gaussian Gun!
This is called a gaussian gun. and can be seen and bought on Grand-illusions.com website. They have a video almost edzactly like this.Not nocking kip he has some great vids on here. And since he posted it first he deserves the credit for the post. Just answering the q on what it was.

- magnets damage when you let them bang
please dont try this.. u will get shattered or just messed up magnets form doing it

it works by using energy transfer, you know the toy people have on their desk's sometimes with the 5 metal balls connected to strings, its the same thing. as the first ball bearing approaches the magnet, its velocity increases due to the attractions, then when it hits the magnet its energy is transferred through all of the balls until it reaches the last one, where it propells it forward. you can make it stronger/faster by repeating the formation above with a space in between each. go to dangerously fun.com it explains it and sets up multiple ones for increased speed.

- actually
I don't think it's the same at all. That's done by gravity. It'll eventually stop, and it doesn't ever go faster than the original ball. This one does.

- which he explained:
"velocity increases due to the [magnetic] attraction" and as far as the comparison with the desk toy he meant (and said) that they had energy transference in common. As far as your statement, that it works by gravity, you are wrong: gravity impedes the process, so in fact, it STOPS working by gravity.

how fast does that go

they're called neodimium boron magnets
the device your making is a guase rifle (a magnetis linear accelerator) still nice work

Excuse my maniacly humble idiocy but isn't that device technically exibiting behaviour wits technically impossible...? It's putting out more energy than you're putting into it...? Seriously... Of course I'm obviously an idiot & suggesting the impossible but if there's no hidden tricks there & there doesn't 'SEE-m' {sic} to be & that ball is shooting out with more energy than you're rolling the other in then what's the trick...? Would you please take the time & E-mail me the principles at-play there because I-have one of those plodding lateral minds & when I-see something that doesn't fit I either want to know why or why not... In this case what you did doesn't fit physics supposedly so please explain... Maybe we can scale-it up & make a ka-zillion dollars... Well... A ka-billion... Please reply & I'll take some time to think what would happen if such a principle was scaled up... I-know I'm so simple but again what's the trick & if no-trick lets make some money from it...

- TRICK? Some like to call it physics...
There's really no trick behind this. As some mentioned before, it's the same principle that acts in those toys people have on their desks with five balls hanging from string.
By jkenigs 1225390975 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove
All that happens is just an energy transfer. What you see here is just the bearing being attracted to the magnets. As magnetism is inversely proportional to the distance, the closer it gets, the stronger it gets (attraction), hence increasing acceleration and the speed of the bearing.
As you may know the faster something goes, it increases it's energy, in this case this increased amount of energy is transferred to the bearing in the other end! and voila!10396792 - 1

how many ball bearings didja lose?
By aiyoo975 1197601177 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove- 0
Did this as a sci-fair project one year. I had like 3 magnets as a chain-reaction sort of thing though.

That was cool- but couldn't anyone do it? I mean it is't so speical. But it is cool.

These types of magnets are not made for impact so be warned that you have a chance of shattering or chipping

a previous video on Metacafe called Metal Storm. It is a military application of this theory. Pretty cool because you can fire up to 1 million rounds per minute.

that just used gunpowder and an electronis firing system i saw it on future weapons

i don't get it.. any geeks around to tell us what's happenin'??
By amcatch 1163243452 Reply Spam [-1] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove- 0
Metal Storm is actually based off of using electronics to fire projectiles, while this uses simple kinetic energy. the magnet attracts the ball, and when the ball hits the magnet it transfers its kinetic energy to the magnet, and therough the ball bearings until it reaches the last one, which shoots out. As far as it not being a high velocity, think about if that magnet was a high powered electromagnet .....

- Nope.
You and specops are both wrong about Metal Storm.
By MetaPotent 1163240824 Reply Spam [+1] Moderate Up Moderate Down Remove
In a metal storm weapon, there is propellant (gun powder) between each projectile that are stacked on top of eachother in a barrel. Electricity only ignites this powder, the electricity isn'y used to drive the projectile, only to ignite power which ignites the projectile.
Seriously, like how can you be so stupid to not understand that? Everyone with half a brain knows how Metal Storm works. (....sarcasm...)1196599 - 1
