What's the 44 Club? Well it all started in the outro of this video • HOW TO BOTTLE FLIP (ON... where we wondered if anyone was still watching the video at that point, and to comment 44 (Scott's fave number) if they were. Brett then said 44 Club get on board and the rest is history. The 44Club is the official How Ridiculous fan club made up of people who love our videos and watch them right to the very end. We've even got 44 Club merch now! So yeh, that's the story. Pretty random but good fun at the same time.
We are passionate about seeing children released from poverty and we would love you to consider sponsoring a child with Compassion. We visited our sponsor children in the Philippines and were blown away by the difference that child sponsorship can make.

"Who needs Nigel when you've got Herron." Priceless. Also LVL is laminated veneer lumber. It's really not strong along the wide surface. It's strong on its edge, like a floor joist would be installed. The problem with this seesaw is that the force on it goes from zero to max in a nanosecond. You need some kind of spring to apply the force more gradually.

I'm wondering if some kind of spring-loaded or pressure-loaded fulcrum would be better. Absorb the energy imparted too quickly by the atlas stone to lower the fulcrum, then rebound with that force while the stone is still forcing the pushed-end down to push even harder on the end being forced upward. They should also calculate forces being imparted and design the lever arm to withstand those forces. Trebuchets don't typically have arms of equal size their whole lengths, the arm is thickest at the weighted end and tapers at the sling-end.
@KiwiHelpgeek
@KiwiHelpgeek 4 жыл бұрын
It wouldn't have prevented the breaks in any way. The velocity and therefore the force from the stones was just far too much. Look how it bent the steel beam at the impact point and the fulcrum point. The speed at impact is 106km/h (65 mph for the primitives) and the impact force is 8,820,000N or 899 tons of force.
@richard6133
@richard6133 4 жыл бұрын
You also want a moment arm that doesn't plastically deform so easily. Maybe wood that is reinforced with the leaf springs from a truck at it's critical stress points? Something that can take that kind of force without deforming at all is probably not going to be feasible, even though it would produce the sharpest impulse to the launched object.

You gents got your physics all wrong. There's no point in having a longer seesaw. If you have a longer seesaw, you have to put more energy into the beam to get things to fling and it just increases the chance you snap your beam because of the leverage of the impact. You want your energy to go into the THING, not the fling. If you have a seesaw, no matter how long it is, if the fulcrum is in the middle, best case scenario you end up launching your thing at the same speed the stone hits. If you make the impact side shorter than the thing side, you get more mechanical advantage to launch your thing FASTER than the stone fell. Ideally it's as follows: What you need is a beam short enough on the impact side that you hit it close to the fulcrum, say 1 meter away, strong enough that it doesn't collapse, but long enough on the THING side to give you 2-3 times the speed, that'd be 2-3 meters. Also, make it totally impossible for the stone to trap the beam between itself and the ground or it WILL destroy it. The impact target needs to rotate out of the way to let the stone punch past it and still hit the sand. Triangle base fulcrum, welded tube steel. Fulcrum beefy enough to take the hits, beam made of i-beam steel THICKER on the impact side with a replaceable target plate, thinner on the THING side. That way it hangs balanced. A beam stop built into the base so the beam can't pass 60 or 70 degrees rise on the THING side. You WILL send Rexy to the moon. Check out trebuchets to get more ideas about getting even more wicked distance. Keep the great work going you good things.

This and maybe adjust the length of the arm to even out the pressure on the object end. In this instance the force was greater on the atlas end of the stone. This is the equivalent of asking the beam to be snapped. Basically: make the atlas end shorter to increase the power needed to move the seesaw. This way the forces of the stone is more focused on the movement and less on the material.
@pr0faker
@pr0faker 4 жыл бұрын
also not use this long of a beam, shorter means be able to withstand much more force. Also with the fulcrum being that small it puts an enormous amount of force on the middle of the beam/plank, and this lessens the force it can put out to whip the other end up and fling whatever is there up. I would make the part on the fulcrum from something like a spring leaf layered part, flexible springy steel re enforcement that helps to transfer the force much better.

If anyone is curious, the 90 kg stone has ~40 kJ of potential energy. Nigel had ~88 kJ, which is actually fitting when you think about it. If you want to build something stronger, the Mythbusters did their own seesaw saga. Might want to look at their design.

A simple method to make your seesaw a little bit more sturdy without going over-engineer: Screw/nail another beam into the middle at a right angle to it, underneath the flat one. It should make a T-shaped cross-section. It's significantly harder to break a board on its narrow edge than on the broad one, and the force from the impact was primarily lost in breaking your boards. Reduce the amount of force spent breaking the board, and more will be left over to propel the other side up.

You guys are scientists. You're physicists. You are conducting tests and altering your method to demonstrate a hypothesis. Your hypothesis is if you apply a force to a lever, an object of lesser mass will be propelled at a greater velocity. None of your methods worked so you refined and improved them. That's science in its purest form. It's science in action and we're lucky enough to come along for the journey. Just as vitally, we can replicate your methodology (maybe on a smaller scale) to achieve a demonstrably similar result. That's truly wonderful.

Heey guys, just some quick physics tips... what you want is to convert it's kinetic energy towards the melon/pine apple/ what ever launching object it is... At this point you have all 'hard' materials, and and very short moment to convert that energy, this will deform metal of brake wood, in short: you stress the beam/plank over it's max force... what you want to do is catch that falling weight in a more gradual way (like a softer falling object with same weight and a plank/beam with more flex). If your moment of energy transfer is longer the object might take a little longer to get to a decent speed, but at that very last moment, the elastic force of the beam will shoot the object away... for example, hit an apple with a baseball bat, and it will splash apart, but if you launch it with a slingshot and it flies! Would love the result on that!

I guess there are a few engineering problems to be solved before they can continue in a satisfying way. For a start, the seesaw needs to be incredibly strong to transfer the energy from end to end without breaking. The fulcrum also needs to be really durable. And lastly, the projectile needs to withstand the sudden acceleration. In that last drop, the watermelon was outright smashed by the bar below it suddenly rising into it at a hundred kilometers per hour. The force is like the strike of a baseball bat. Whatever they launch need to be able to withstand that. Now, if they could make some kind of pulley system up the tower, they could make the acceleration more gradual, and create some sort of catapult. That would be quite epic to watch.
