What else can we do with plasma balls??
Y
Woah
Came here from the vat19 unicorn video, and I’m early! Wow!
Complete circuits with it
1 day pre upload, very nice.
Try and power different stuff with it
I have to say, that was probably one of your best experiments. Great job!
Yup
Couldnt agree more. This was super fun to watch.
@@shifa-8423 u small bad
@@uglypeoplewish9836 Why am I bad?
Not gonna lie, this was actually way more interesting than I had anticipated.
When
Same here
@@lolxlmao5165 What do you mean, "When"?
Same here too
@@JD-128 when did I ask
[Joke]
Experiment idea: play sound frequencies through the modified plasma globe to see if you can see the wavelengths.
Awesome idea!!!
That would be so cool!
I bet though that the sound would need to be modulated with a higher frequency to actually make it work, 20kHz (around the upper limit of human hearing) seems a bit low for this.
@@matekovacs2696 yeah, you'd need frequencies with wavelengths which would be easy to distinguish (like around 1cm)
Yo, that would be actually awesome.
The problem is that you can get hurt from electrical signals below 20khz. Electroboom does a video where he compares frequency to pain. To play sound frequencies without getting hurt, you would have to modulate the high frequency and high voltage waves from the plasma globe.
When air is ionised most of the light emitted should be in the UV. First, be careful with your eyes then make things glow in the UV.
True but glass blocks a lot of UV by itself.
Well that blue glow of the glass is actually the soda lime glass which is fluorescing under the uv light
Nerd
What?
Me: Trying to listen to Nate
Grace: ThAtS FaCiNaTING!!!!!
I miss Calli
@@sazmullium what happened to her??
@@emb3084 nothing they switch time to time sometimes it’s calli sometimes it is grace
She sounds high 😂
The animation King she is still around but she seems to do les and less as the weeks go by... just preferred it was just Nate and Calli.
This content is so much better than the silly stuff you do sometimes.
It is closer to the old-school TKOR.
YES
Was just about to say the same thing. 👍
Agreed
Grants videos were 100x better
I agree. though I do like some of the silly stuff they do too.
This is one of the coolest TKOR videos EVER. Yes Nate try more gases
Just be aware that some of the gases produce UV light when they are excited.
The nitrogen in air emits a lot of UV when ionised.
Also x-rays as well, if there is a strong enough vacuum pulled (due to bremsstrahlung radiation)
So you’re saying I can use this to tan in the winter? 😆
I knew someone would comment that
Glass blocks UV
2;40 use a bunch of those plasma globe things and a a bunch of people touching each one and make a circuit to make the lightbulb brighter
Corona
Lol
im 90% sure that if the current went through more people would make the bulb more dull
Ah yes create a nuclear reaction!
Being a welding instructor myself, what would happen if you used welding shielding gasses [such as CO2 & Argon(75/25) or Argon & Helium (75/25)] or used gases like Xenon or Krypton?
Mans is fr naming planets from the dc universe 😭😭
Mans is fr naming noble gasses and stan lee just happened to like the names and re-used them ;)
@@taymour961 oh also, who lives on the co2 planet in the McU?
Mostly the color spectrum changes. Using the air (which is mostly Nitrogen) is actually very dangerous in a long run. For example, the purple line in 3:30 was really faint, but it actually produced as much light as with Argon later on in 5:30 , because the power of the device did not change. What changed is the spectrum of the light - air produces mostly harmful UVB light (which is invisible to our eyse), so better not turn on those for the whole night, while you sleep or something. You can check brainiac75's most recent video on youtube where in the end he measures that.
One of the best projects of the year !!! Loved it ..... Thanks
That lovely purple color from normal air almost certainly produced a ton of UV too lol
Can you guys a new version of an exploding target thats convenient to make
Jesse wat doe jij voor hun?
Trouwens zet mijn reactie in de discord van hun
They make tannerite lol but this would be a very interesting video
Grants was pretty easy to make
Dawg just use a balloon lmao
plasma globe is an incredible application of electrostatic physics.Liked the experiment.
I like grace in this one she’s calmer and more like that lovable little sister for Nate
She's starting to grow on me =), I have a lot of trouble with change, but I'm really starting to like her!
What do you mean the change?
Wait is Callie leaving?
im not, shes a child and so irritating!
@@kenstoudemire1672 No. They are just bringing in other people to help put out content.
@@stevefox3763 child,i-
You guys have to make a tutorial on how to build this thing, the hole idea and all the modifications are so cool!
You know you can buy it, right??
Oh I’m talking about their vacuum chamber setup, but yah I have made one before and they are great, but the vacuum chamber just takes it to another level.
The banding effect at 8:38 is quite interesting. It is a result of the plasma ball high voltage accelerating electrons, which bump into few but remaining gas atoms causing a glow, which deaccelerates the electrons, and then is accelerated again by the high voltage.
So coolll! I once dropped a plasma globe when I was young and I didn't want to turn it on because I was scared that my whole house would melt bc of the laser beams lol
I’ve always been scared to drop a plasma globe
I always thought that if I took the plastic ball away I was just going to go on and on until that find a wall or something, I also thought that homing missiles worked like this
My uncle used to trick me when I was younger that he was a wizard and when I grew up, I learnt the sad truth 👁👄👁
@@jana-xx1yk oof, uncle making pp disappear? Relatable
@@joualavedra1208 LOL!!
TKOR: What happens if you put a plasma ball in a vacuum chamber?
Plasma Ball: **Proceeds to end the entire universe's existence**
*Shocking isn’t it?*
Loved this one! That’s all I got. 😉
Independent variable: What gas you put around the globe
Dependent variable: How it turns out
Controlled variable: The globe
That was the best thing I’ve seen with plasma so awesome
I was absolutely not expecting it to reach through the globe in to the next glass
This one of my favorite experiments you have done! Very scientific.
I love how happy Grace is!
I've been watching for YEARS and this has to be the coolest thing ever!
Try Krypton or Zenon, they use that at airports for the lights used at runways for planes landing at major airports
I would be happier if Grace worked *behind the scenes* way more.
But I do love the return to science and exploring things we normally don't.
This was actually my favorite video. Never knew that you could do this with a plasma ball
Ive seen all your guy's videos this one is my favorite!!!
the purple beam with the foil reminded me of the dark crystal when the skeksis are around the crystal when the suns are hitting it.
It reminded me of the Power Stone from Infinity War and Guardians of the Galaxy.
One of my favorite videos in a while.
When the jar started glowing it was emitting massive amounts of dangerous UV light making things florescent
I'm pretty sure they turned a blind eye to that
I may be wrong, but i believe the dangerous type of UV is blocked by most common types of glass. UV fluorescent bulbs I believe are made of a special type of glass that allows UV to pass through. I might be wrong, so don't take this as fact.
@@jak3816 not just dagerous kinds, most light in the UV spectrum is blocked out by glass
@@TheHarleyEvans if most uv is blocked by normal glass, the sun glasses dont need to have been invented. Actually fluorescent lamps are coated with a phosphor to fluoresce in UV. Thats how they emit light. The UV generated when hitting the phosphor, the phosphor glows. So if the bulb glows, then there is harmful UV.
@@RandomScientist you've got your understanding of flourescent lamps backwards, the phosphore flouresces under UV, the filament/gas produces UV which is then absorbed by the phosphor and emitted out as light within the visible spectrum.
as for sunglasses, it's more than just UV that hurts our eyes, sunglasses are designed to cut down the amount of visible light reaching our eyes (which is why they are ALL tinted)
I'm always up for seeing more vacuum chamber trickery.
Grace: "It's alive!"
Me: "IT'S ALIVE, IT'S ALIVE"
You must have so many questions...........
Can’t describe how cool and awesome this is experiment is and it bakes me want to understand how it works better and more specifically.
Could you connect a bunch of people each to a plasma ball and centralize to a lightbulb to see how bright it can get? You could compare the circuit in series to parallel.
Great episode. The extra effort shows.
That was way cooler than I was expecting it to be.
E
Unoriginal comments.
Nice upgrade on the vacuum chamber. Excited to see more of it again.
"And then we would have fluoride gas." Ah yes, then you could light the glass on fire.
Man, I enjoy most of TKOR's content, but every once in a while you guys hit an absolute home run. This was fascinating.
I miss just putting random stuff in the foundry or vacuum chamber
You can shock organic stuff with a plasma ball. If you just put tin foil on top it will arc towards any organic stuff that almost touches it. For example if you put tin/aluminium foil on top of a phasma ball and then almost touch it with your finger it will arc towards you and make a little burn mark
Now that you have a bell jar, you should show the famous experiment where you can't hear a bell in a vacuum
Grace is awesome, I like her A LOT!
Yes, we need more with plasma globes!
You probably should be wearing UV protection glasses next time because some of these gasses radiate lots of it
Which the vacuum chamber glass mostly absorbs and turns into mostly harmless visible light, hence the blue glow.
@@matekovacs2696 Only the UVB and C, not the UVA, which can still cause wrinkles and cataracts. Short term not a big deal, but over the long run? better to show best practices and keep themselves safer.
This might just be my favorite TKOR video of all time.
I haven’t seen one of his videos in a while, like 8 months, so who is this other girl?
The new recruit there’s like 2 more
@@pyrosphereplayz3374 Why did they change the girls I also haven’t seen one of his videos in a while
@@ravensexy93 idk
Amazingly done... you guys actually lived up to the reputation of tkor
Can you deshell Reese's pieces, M&Ms, or any hard-shelled candy?
They've done the reverse with frying it before (just the shells left)
@@mwater_moon2865 link to video?
that was very cool, thanks!!
Should see what happens when you do this with with a strong magnetic field near.
Or put a CRT next to it...
but DO NOT experiment with electron rays out in the open, that stuff is dangerous and involves really high voltages... But with all the necessary precautions, electron beams are cool.
This was such a fun experiment to watch...
2065:tkor what happens when you eat a hover board?
Me: so that's why humans keep flying
More gases, larger chamber! Woohoo! Thanks for the video!
TKOR gonna make a Chernobyl incident one day.
Mark my word comrade.
If it happens i will remember yo coment
Oj
@@kylerkastner2808 same
Definitely one of your better experiments. Quite fascinating.
at 9:02 notice the repetitive pattern in the top plasma "tendril".
I'll bet it is related to the frequency of the High Voltage drive signal.
Oh yeah
:O going to mess around and open a portal! lol! this was totally amazing!
what if u put more than one in the vacuum chamber without the glass ball to see what happens
Probably an arc between the two for a few seconds, and then it would trip the breaker.
That is a simple but awesome explanation of plasma globe!
X-Ray Radiation is a possible risk while doing this kind of experiment vacuuming with electricity and plasma in higher space vacuum atmosphere. Putting more higher Voltage 55kilovolts in a vacuum tube may be dangerous to produce X-rays. You should use a Geiger counter/Ionizing Radiation detector while doing this experiment.
Dude that’s not how it works
X-rays are made by xenon
That's was fun . 8:42 creating witch dark magic 🤣
Can you guys put the dna from the strawberry’s in the freeze dryer
Full steam ahead on more Grace!
You know the bubbles you made with dry ice i did the same but with mist from a fan BTW IM IN SOUTH AFRICA S❤️
The shot of grace at 6:11 is gold
Wow, discord family here!
This is probably one of the coolest things I've seen.
Yes I’m eraly I realy love the vids
6:10 Grace's face. 😂
"High voltage current"
It's called an arc, Nate.
I like how at 8:38 you can see the waves pushing out from the center
You could use a real Tesla coil to isolate in a vacuum, but this a great video nonetheless.
Premature comment... I see halfway through the vid you change it up. My bad
Much underrated vid, very cool experiment.
The girl has absolutely no point in this video
ooh shiny xD
ya'll say the same thing about calli
That was awesome! Need more plasma ball experiments!
For Noble gases: Xenon and Neon.
Maybe try pure nitrogen, instead of the atmospheric mix.
Depending on how confident you are about the ability of your vacuum, methanol, methane, and ethanol gas could be interesting. Same with Hydrogen.
Radon is well, radioactive, so probably a bad plan.
This vid looks really cool I like plasma balls
yes please try more this
was awesome!!!!!!
One of the best shows!
Thanks
This was one of the coolest episodes I've ever seen
one of the best in a lot of time
Grace is mesmerized by the plasma ball :)
This was one of my favorites, try some more stuff with this in the future please!
Love the video 😀 Love from Sweden 🇸🇪❤️💎
This was fun! I have really been enjoying some of your recent more science based videos vs. the let's see what we can do with food stuff. Totally makes me want to get a plasma globe!
This was most awesome! More please 😁
VERY Fascinating!
Using these principles is the start of how we turn silicon wafers into computer chips, just using gases far more volatile in a super controlled environment. If you're curious, take a look at plasma enhanced vapor deposition, it's quite fascinating!
That looked so cool!
You guys should do the same experiment but with a Tesla Coil.
this was so cool to watch, absolutely satisfying!
Super cool! Wow. Love it.
man that is so cool
Maybe do a random mix of noble gases to see what effects you could get?
