Here are some words from the home experimenter on the challenges and successes he encountered:
So i was not sure what exactly is going on here from a force stand point so i asked someone smarter this is what he told me…
“This is a classic angular rotation/centrifugal force (or is it centripetal?) Problem. As the angular speed increases, the force required to keep it together increases (obviously). The fun comes in the hexagonal structure of the overall mass and the “subcells” ill call them. The radial force is transferred through the lattice using these angular “bonds”
“The fun part is determining if it flies apart at the edge, or further in because the inner bonds have to resist the outward acceleration of all subcells further out. I bet the first delamination occurs at the point where the air contacts the mass. That exact point has to deal with the force of the air and the magnets. “
We hope you like the video and don’t try this without the supervision of a professional!

Cool
U know what i love science! And i love the science u guys post. But i cant handle all the spam and advertisement u allow on ur page. Im sorry ima have to unfollow.
Crazyness!
Terminal velocity is the maximum speed something can reach while falling through the atmosphere against the force of air resistance. This is just a ball of magnets spinning……
Awesome!!!
Not really sure why thats hard to believe. Theyre not welded together. Of course when you spin it fast theyrr gonna fly apart when the centrifugal force is greater then the megnetic force. Basic physics
Love those Buckyballs! If everyone got a big set of them, America would have a strategic reserve of neodymium!
What’s the radius of its implied flux field? Coulumbs please
Took the words right out of my mouth
I dont see anything special. Knew what happens before started the video
Same thing that happens to your engine when u go past the red line lol
Why is this cool? It’s cyntrifical force overcoming the magnetic attraction of the magnets …….
You are correct sir..
Centrifugal force with magnets..cool, but not that cool..
Derrick this reminds me of something….
*looks at scar*
yeah… Something familiar about all this
Lmao
Hahaha…
Retardedness lol
Is there some other meaning for “terminal velocity” that I somehow missed? This has nothing to do with terminal velocity. LOL.
Travis Blunt lemme try this with your magnets
My magnets???
Yeah that magnet chain thing you have
Oh lol ye
how was that in any way unexpected?
*looks at all the ads closing in*
You know what, I’ll just find something similar on youtube.
I love when pages post bullshit to try and suck people in to their ads.. Don’t even have to click it.. all ready know exactly what happens.. one force overcomes another.. magnets probably shoot out in all directions.. anticlimactic ending.
copy title, paste in to youtube.. do it every time
skip adds just watch.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kNbH8Y1HgQQ
this..
Cyberlink Powere Director sucks. They do not supoort the software once you purchase it. I had a registered copy and they could not find my information.
light speed lol

You get bombarded by adds to the point your computer locks up perhaps? yes ! Fuckers!
I thought terminal velocity was when you reach the maximum speed while falling, due to the air resistance.
Welp, time for the google!!!
I was way off.
it was actually a movie in the 90s. SHWEW, glad we got that squared away
with a bit of sensor work we’d know how fast. with a second air gun we’d eliminate the inaccuracy due to the wobble. With some actual numbers we’d have science. until documentation and experimentation its not science and its just goofin off.
This video makes it seem like there’s nothing left to try in experimental physics, lol.
Centrifugal rotational force greater than centripetal magnetic force.
didn’t expect that!
Lame
I’d like to check it out but your mobile site is garbage and completely unusable.
