Ferrofluid is made of tiny, nanometer‐sized particles of coated magnetite suspended in liquid. When there’s no magnet around, ferrofluid acts like a liquid. The magnetite particles move freely in the fluid. But when there’s a magnet nearby, the particles are temporarily magnetized. They form structures within the fluid, causing the ferrofluid to act more like a solid. When the magnet is removed, the particles are demagnetized and ferrofluid acts like a liquid again.

Capillary Action demo and science experiments! DestructiveCreativity 2022-02-23 | Capillary action is a very cool science phenomenon that is essential for all life on earth! Capillary rise in small tubes is a familiar phenomenon that most of us have seen. But why is it that water rises higher in thin tubes than in thick tubes? Let's explore the physics and effects of the Capillary force. what is the capillary force? Capillary action occurs because water is sticky, thanks to the forces of cohesion (water molecules like to stay close together) and adhesion (water molecules are attracted and stick to other substances). Science is Awesome, now go out and do some! 00:00 Intro to capillary action00:19 Definition of terms for the capillary force01:38 Testing the capillary tube set.03:10 Discussing the correlation between boiling temperature and pressure03:58 How do trees use capillary action if they are taller than 30 feet?A few more terms to consider if you are looking for more information. Adhesion of water to the walls of a vessel will cause an upward force on the liquid at the edges and result in a meniscus which turns upward. The surface tension acts to hold the surface intact. Capillary action occurs when the adhesion to the walls is stronger than the cohesive forces between the liquid molecules. The height to which capillary action will take water in a uniform circular tube is limited by surface tension and gravity. Veritasium Video on Trees: youtube.com/watch?v=BickMFHAZR0&t=55s

What is the Kamifusen Science toy? Japanese Paper Balloon explained. DestructiveCreativity 2022-02-09 | What is the Japanese paper balloon? This awesome Science toy is seemingly a paradox... To inflate this Kamifusen, you repeatedly strike it! How is this possible? Check out this awesome science experiment. If you want to purchase on for yourself, here is where I bought it. teachersource.com/product/paper-balloon-paradox/air-pressure-rockets 00:00 Intro to the Japanese Paper Balloon01:40 Showing how the Kamifusen works.02:57 The explanation of the Self inflating balloon and some history.06:19 Inflating the Kami-fusen again.Kamifusen is the traditional name for the Self-inflating paper balloon - Kamifusen meaning paper (kami) balloon (fusen)Kamifusen self-inflating paper balloon and it’s a Japanese toy, which means paper balloon. Kamifusen meaning paper (kami) balloon (fusen), is a traditional Japanese toy. You can inflate it by hitting it in the palm of your hand.Despite having a hole being open to air, a paper balloon remains inflated. One might expect that bouncing the paper balloon would force air out of its hole and cause the balloon to deflate. Instead, the hitting it actually increases the paper balloon to inflate, as seen here.It has been theorized that the property that causes a crumpled sheet of paper to slowly unfold is similar. This somewhat helps expand the scrunched paper balloon. However, it does not fully explain the inflation, since the unfolding does not completely smooth out plain crumpled paper all the way. Other physicists have suggested that the bouncing cause the pressure changes indie the balloon that alternately push out the and pull in air. That’s ,true, but it is not obvious how the pressure changes and why more air comes in than goes out – a requirement for the balloon to inflate. Part of the genius is the paper from which it is made. The paper is not only lightweight and relatively impermeable to air, but it also has a degree of plasticity that allows it to deform easily and retain its resulting shape. Because of these unique properties, the balloon inflates to a volume with its air content and maintains that volume until additional air is added. As a result, a squashed balloon can accumulate air and eventually inflate to its full size from repeated bouncing, even though the net pumping from a single bounce may be small. A balloon made of plastic, rubber, or any other material that does not share the key properties of paper would not inflate as the Japanese balloon does. Pressure changes accompany the oscillation. When the balloon is contracted, the inside pressure is higher than atmospheric pressure p0; when expanded, it is lower than p0. The pressure difference between balloon and atmosphere works to restore the balloon to its equilibrium position. Hitting it again and again repeats this process: shocks to the internal air pressure increasing its volume, and thus drawing more air in, until the balloon is nearly fully inflated. It never fully inflates, of course, because the internal air pressure is not high enough to overcome the rigidity of the folds/ crumples in the paper (you'd have to inflate and seal the hole to do that).Kamifusen self-inflating paper balloon and it’s a Japanese toy, which means paper balloon. Kamifusen meaning paper (kami) balloon (fusen), is a traditional Japanese toy. You can inflate it by hitting it in the palm of your hand.Destructive Creativity and Jonathan Allers are dedicated to providing safe and fun science facts and experiments for all ages.

Why do onions make you cry? The science behind botanical warfare. DestructiveCreativity 2021-11-03 | Why do Onions make you cry? It turns out that onions are particularly good at absorbing sulfur, which they use in a number of amino acids. When you cut an onion, you break open cell after cell, releasing their contents. Enzymes that were operated meet the sulfur-rich amino acids and form unstable sulfenic acids, which then rearrange into a chemical known as syn-propanethial-S-oxide. This chemical is quite volatile, and causes a burning sensation when it floats up from the cutting board and comes in contact with your eyeballs. Your brain then goes into panic mode and tries to flush out the irritants the only way it knows how... By crying.00:00 Intro to why onions make you cry01:04 The history of the research into onions and Eric Block02:20 Brief explanation on why onions make you cry with enzymes.05:18 How to avoid crying when you cut onions.Destructive Creativity and Jonathan Allers are dedicated to providing safe and fun science facts and experiments for all ages.

Electrolysis for beginners! Choose Hydrogen not Chlorine. DestructiveCreativity 2021-07-14 | Electrolysis is cool! But if you want to try this amazing science at home, be sure to use the right materials. If you choose wrong, you will end up with some chlorine gas from electrolysis bubbling up right where you want oxygen... Typically the electrolysis of water produces two things, Hydrogen gas and Oxygen gas both of which bubble up from either diode. but we immediately run into a few problems, water is not very conductive so we need to add a material that will help electricity flow through the water. Magnesium salt is quite hardy and it is easier to break the bonds in water than epsom salt. Not so with NaCl (Table salt). Instead what is created is Caustic soda (Lye) in solution, and Hydrogen gas on one diode and Chorine gas on the other... YIKES! Really cool science experiment, but make sure you do it safely!00:00 Intro to Electrolysis chemistry01:02 The easy "science experiment at home" method you should try.
