Absolutely brilliant.i love this view makes you feel like your sitting at the table , like at school.the way you explain to luke and his responses makes it easier for people to understand the subject your trying to teach him.more videos like this would be great.
This took me back 55 years to school and the chemistry of identifying substances. Get stuff and chuck it through a flame and see what colour it is. Great vid again, thanks.
Loved the method of teaching you use, making Luke think and pulling the answers out with nudges, brilliant. One of my science teachers was like this, Mr Ruston made me love science and why I can still recall slot of the information. Also like that the fingers for points almost equaled one of the aids for remembering one of the laws for direction, force and something else. Take care and stay safe
You always make me think outside the box. Thanks guys. By principal you should be able to stand in-between two plates, discharge a cap bank and fly. Well technically with the right amplifier you could fly with a dog in one hand and a cat in the other. We are conductive water after all.
Very interesting and fun conversation. I learnt a few great things in this one and I just feel like adding: I have discovered myself in lab that the strength of a magnet does not dictate how far it's magnetic field spreads, but it is the size of the magnet that influenced how far the magnetic field reaches. The strength of the Earth's magnetic field is comparable to a sheet of fridge magnet, but it reaches beyond the moon. ... I find evident that electric currents are everywhere in the universe; moving particles and magnetic fields left, right, up and down.
I am taking notes, I feel like I am in the Best Classroom in the world!! Awesome, Thank You both so much for this valuable information, especially as I am trying(Very!) hard to educate my Hubby!! ( and myself!!) 👍👍👍👍 Thank you guys, you're both stars! This is absolutely fantastic!! Namaste 🙏 Andrea and Critter Family. XxX
When I was a kid I started reading a book in my local library about magneto hydrodynamics, simply because it sounded so cool. Didn’t understand much of it, but it was a glimpse into a wider world of technology
Brilliant. I’m in my seventh decade and so annoyed I didn’t have a teacher like you when I still had the chance to use such knowledge. But…. Never too late. Thank you so much.
Great video Robert. You're a great teacher. I think Luke will remember your "chats" for the rest of his life. He clearly enjoyed your time together, well done!
Interesting talk, i love how you are not afraid to experiment with all the possibilities. The salt water ideal could be something beneficial, since water conducts heat really well at the same time is fluid so it carries away the heat from hotter areas and dissipates it elsewhere. Well depending on the application heat in our electrical systems is a problem for high power systems or even for small gadgets the smaller they are the better heat transfer they will need.
@@ThinkingandTinkering So grateful for this channel. I keep coming back and learning so many things, I'm interested in 99% of your video content. I think I've seen nearly everything you've put out. I'm beyond grateful Robert, for the lessons, for boiling things down into simple components and putting so much work into experimentation. Seriously, Much Love from the states.
So, the wires are like a comb on a wimshurst machine. I also find it fascinating that the colors of the burning metals on your desk are the same ones we see burning in stars
Rob!! Would you please consider doing a video call discussion of magneto hydrodynamics with the Author of "Celestial dynamo physics" it explains a lot of planetary phenomenon that is yet inexplicable from our current understanding
My thoughts with this went to hydroelectric generation. Presumably you could increase the magnetic field strength and number of coils to a point where an electrical load would prevent the water from actually being able to turn the generators. Never having read into it, I assume they are balanced to get the minimum flow without the dam overflowing, thus the greatest possible force. But I'm guessing you could use the flow to drive some screws to keep a closed system of saline flowing down through magnets to get some small amount of electricity too. I doubt if there's any effective gain from doing something like that, but that's where I thought it was going :)
@@ThinkingandTinkering could be fun to try out using a paddle wheel using... it's an Archimedes screw isn't it? and a tap. I presume if there was a reasonable potential in the amount of electricity you could produce that way, then hydroelectric dams wouldn't work the way they do, but it would be an interesting video
Love the informal educational presentation format, The visuals on your demo needs to be stronger, and the sound perhaps a bit clearer. Not having clear acces to the visual, makes it less valuable (from an educational point) for me watching it, I am sure for Luke it must be much more valuable, I am forced using my ears more than my eyes, however I am a visual learner watching a Video. The way you build up your lesson, and getting your student( Lukes) participation in the learning process is truly masterfully done.Luke will understand and remember this lesson for as long as he lives.
it's used in power plants to generate electricity and I am not kidding mate - that is exactly where it is used for electricity generation it is around 60% efficient I believe
@@ThinkingandTinkering Wow, I'm surprised I had never heard of it before. Most power plants I know of use a turbine to generator setup. There must be another loss getting it to AC as well an MG (motor generator) set is probably used?
@@ThinkingandTinkering *"why repeat it?"* Sorry, I'm new to your channel. I took a look at your videos, but didn't see one with a title that made me think it was on about flames generating voltage.
@@ThinkingandTinkering Nah, it probably wouldn't work, and if it did it would probably be worse than normal methods. But I suspect you already know that.
have you tried it without a magnetic fields applied? cos at the junction of 2 dissimilar conductors and a temperature difference on the ends should generate something too. Perhaps your device is generating in 2 ways.
I just heard something about Fusion by filtering the fission or something like that and it was cold fusion that's all they said do you know anything about that
The chap at MudFossil University, Roger, He's quite keen on this point and is looking for someone to take him seriously, but I could be wrong!! Namaste 🙏 Andrea and Critter Family. XxX
@@ThinkingandTinkering thank you cars that run on water just disappeared as well so in my eyes it could still be a viable concept if we can weed through the greed
If you add chloride ions to the flame the metal colours are enhanced, Copper Chloride gives a much higher output than Cu nitrate, carbonate, oxide etc. Same for Iron, Chromium etc. Depending on other factors you can often get multiple colours from the same metal. Not sure how or if that changes MHD effects though ;-/
What about homopolar generator discovered by faraday the same summer he discovered connductive material moving in a magnetic field..he have understood it while passing on a bridge can ossing the tamese in London...
Sorry if I spoiled the surprise a few days back on 1419. ;) I'm my defence, it was only a bit away from a MHD drive. I absolutely love this style of exchanging information (I suppose some call it teaching but it's so much more than that) with an eager participant. That same thrill that I feel at my own epiphany, I get to feel again when I share it with another. A bit of information and set the up for a win! A bit more and again.... Things that I'll always remember we're either shared with me this way or I first had to fail a thousand times. Any guess which I prefer? Rob, you deserve a chance to lecture at Faraday's desk.
There are three kinds of magnetism, and it dosent need to move. The earth rotates, valves use a thermionic transmission in relation to heat. Still neat...
@@ThinkingandTinkering Did Luke get it? After a bit of thinking (dangerous, I know) I think the reason they got such a low result from the Thames Generator was the parallel earth paths acting to short out the voltage. Earth resistance can vary quite a lot but usually you can get under 20 Ohms for quite some distance!
I don't think anythinG actually Generates electricity more like populate...also the metals and the color would do the same if it could oxidize and ironically enouGh oxyGen is what fire needs for fuel 🤔🤔🤔 also I've always wondered where we as humans Get our enerGy and could be arGued the sun and elements in our bodies but I believe you just answered it in the best way possible 🤯🤯🤯

basically - yes - it's pretty cool to do as well
Really like this socratic method stuff, you ask just the right questions to lead things forward. I'd love to see more of this.
it is about the questions you ask that's for sure
The joy of watching how knowledge passed to Luke from Robert’s teaching
cheers mate

I love your teaching style, thank you Robert.
I appreciate that mate - cheers
Great video! I love the style you just taught in. So simply explained.
thank you mate - I am glad you enjoyed it

indeed we are mate
@@ThinkingandTinkering That poor cat gets a lot of stick, Lol! 👍👍
This is not teaching, this is passion in understanding and sharing that knowledge.
wow - cheers mate and thank you for taking the time to say that
Thanks for that.
Made this whole concept make much better sense.
good to know mate - cheers

Great basin lesson... It has been over thirty years since I had that conversation.
lol - I think it is one we all have to have at sometime mate lol
@@ThinkingandTinkering Ye it is... Keep doing the great work.
This video really stands out, I think. A great way to teach. Thank you!
Wait ... when did you get +200k subscribers? That's wild! Congrats!

it is a cool word lol and yes it does open a door if you are interested to walk through
More like this, first principle lessons, absolutley smashing. Luke is a lucky man to have such a mentor.
I am really glad you like dit mate I will try
Brilliant. I’m in my seventh decade and so annoyed I didn’t have a teacher like you when I still had the chance to use such knowledge. But…. Never too late. Thank you so much.
If only I could have had a science teacher like you, absolutely fascinating and brilliant, thanks
Great video Robert. You're a great teacher. I think Luke will remember your "chats" for the rest of his life. He clearly enjoyed your time together, well done!
he is a star mate
Love it Mate! Reminds me of times teaching my kids as well as teaching science in middle school. Use the lines of force, Luke!
Inspiring thank you.
You are so welcome!
I too like this format. Well done boys!
awesome - glad you liked it mate and cheers
With my adhd even i could work and spend hours with you awesome
oh wow - cheers mate

That was really good to watch. Very well taught, you had a plan with stages. 👍🙂
Thank you! Cheers!
Fun, and Fantastic. xxx
awesome - cheers mate
why did i laugh so hard at the beginning of this, a great video!
I have no idea mate lol- cheers
True education about growing understanding not about memorization. It's little exchanges like this that make lifelong impressions on people.
I think you are right
Awesome! 👏
It was a bit like reading a conversation between Sherlock and Watson 😂
lol - cheers mate
That was a Awesome Video !!!! Thanks for that!!
I am glad you liked it mate
Love this! Helped me understand so much more. When I saw the other video yesterday I was like whats a MHD generator?? Awesome Vid!
awesome mate - I am glad it helped I really am

Your fantastic 👏 friends
Thank you so much
That was awesome ! Do more videos like that, but zoom into the setup !
I wish I had a teacher like that growing up
Love a little chemistry 💥💨🤯
who doesn't mate - chemistry rocks lol
I'd been the try hard yelling out I OH! KNOW I KNOW! copper! Cuz it's green!! 😄
lol - awesome mate
perhaps a discussion on the chiral magnetic effect!
maybe - cheers
Yes
lol
JP Petit worked on this in the 60s, hes on Ytube.
nice pointer mate - cheers
If the straight parts of the triangles were made into coils would it improve collection?
I don't think so mate - but I am guessing
Rob!! Would you please consider doing a video call discussion of magneto hydrodynamics with the Author of "Celestial dynamo physics" it explains a lot of planetary phenomenon that is yet inexplicable from our current understanding
I can consider it mate for sure

thank you mate I will bear that in mind for the future - lets face it we are all learning lol - cheers
Luke, the force is strong or it may not be.
lol
It was interesting although seems like a lot of waist material and I can't see it producing a lot of electricity. What are the use cases?

What happened to the missing last two minutes where voltage is measured along the burning metal flame as it goes through the magnet?
I did that in previous video mate - why repeat it?
@@ThinkingandTinkering *"why repeat it?"*
Sorry, I'm new to your channel.
I took a look at your videos, but didn't see one with a title that made me think it was on about flames generating voltage.
Master class in adult education 👏
Great stuff!
Well done Luke. Thanks. It would take a lot of courage to film a chemistry lesson like that.
What if you were to pump iron filing solution in a circuit that passes aluminium plates as it goes around?
I have no idea - give it a go and let us know what you find out
@@ThinkingandTinkering Nah, it probably wouldn't work, and if it did it would probably be worse than normal methods. But I suspect you already know that.
