The wheel looks around 7 cm in diameter, meaning if this tiny wheel was on the ground, spinning at 20.000 rpm, it would be traveling at a speed of ~ 264 km/h For reference a regular car tire on the freeway does around ~720 rpm to travel 115 km/h If your car tires were doing 20.000 rpm, you would be traveling at 3.150 km/h, or about 20% faster than an AK47 bullet

Do you think intentionally setting the lowest gearing to disconnect after dumping the power in would make it work better? The last one at least seemed to spin longer when that happened unintentionally. Not sure how you would make it disengage, but I wonder how long it could go, and what might make the length of time spinning go up.
@magnus00172 жыл бұрын
I believe the reason the last one spun longer was because he lubed it. Less friction means less energy loss, therefore the wheel spins longer.

@Airin2582 жыл бұрын
youte definitly right, if they disconnected the gearing from the wheel at the end of the pull, that would allow it to spin longer and free-er. Idk that it would improve rpm, but it would give more time to measure the rpm before it dropped off.
@EllaBananas2 жыл бұрын
@@EllaBananas you're absolutely right it wouldn't spin faster; it only speeds up because of power being put into it, and disconnected it can't put in more power. But spin time and reducing friction tests would be neat to see.
@magnus00172 жыл бұрын
@@Airin258 good point, I forgot that was the only one lubricated, but removing the second shaft by disconnecting it making it spin longer could be interesting. Also, decoupling might make it spin more as less sections experiencing friction, but also less inertia because it is removing weight, but also also it's a minor weight change because the spinning wheels are obviously vastly heavier, but also also also the bearings on the spinning section could be made more focused on low friction while the power train focuses on maximum power and ignores friction because the decoupling . . . basically it could be cool to try?

Yes, obviously. The less mass on the wheel, the less torque needed to spin it, even with the part limitations (as in, the axle twist and the damage from lack of lubrication). So given the same amount of torque applied (same person and gear set), you will see an increase in RPM.

The speed doesn't really matter that much since it's all about energy in vs energy out.

Imagine people using exercise bikes to provide electricity, it hasn't caught on because it's not that effective.

You make it for testing, with the correct solutions. Even if I am not interested by breaking record, I am always surprised by the idea you come up to figure out the problem in a smart way, instead of just using 100x motors for instance. It is a nice way to show how a problem can be solve using mechanic.

It's also an interesting juxtaposition between ASMR and simple mechanical curiosity.
@@jacobshirley3457 see also brick technology
The sounds help a lot too.
In a way it kind of reminds me of the Primitive Technology channel. No talking, just straight down to the topic at hand.
maybe it's because every so often there's another comment complaining about said merch plugs and such.
Love how it sounds like an actual engine
The last slow mo epic 🔥🔥🔥
same lol
Sounds like a v10
@@regulardudegam1ng 12 900 RPM sounded like V6 from F1 but the 19 300 is obviously Lamborghini Huracan 😆
It's sound like my mom blender
"What's that loud, car-sounding noise?" "Neighbor's playing with his LEGOs again..."
2:20 that's sound like Lamborghini huracan and you decided making a add hear axie and you sound like it
Fr
I can hear a LambAudi V10 in there, yeah.
0:58 So that’s how lawnmowers pull cords work
Woah
Holy shit he did it what the fuck
The wheel looks around 7 cm in diameter, meaning if this tiny wheel was on the ground, spinning at 20.000 rpm, it would be traveling at a speed of ~ 264 km/h For reference a regular car tire on the freeway does around ~720 rpm to travel 115 km/h If your car tires were doing 20.000 rpm, you would be traveling at 3.150 km/h, or about 20% faster than an AK47 bullet
Perfect math!
Holy shit that’s faster than sport cars
r/hedidthemath
What if there was somehow a method to release that wheel like a beyblade? It would become a weapon of mass destruction OR a really really good beyblade
@@koen___ i like how you think
1:46 engine lol 😂
Straight to the point. Not wasting any time. Love it!
That moment when your lego parts start to sound like a literal F1 car. Edit: Fatfingered your to youe
Some of them sounded like a V10!
And it’s by hand
I mean the outside of the wheel goes at around 200kmh, if you assume d=56mm
I think it's more like a small two stroke single cylinder
Share
I love when people into subjects like physics or engineering use their knowledge to do stuff like this, so cool
2:38 terminal velocity but executed under other primitive energies
Wow this is a great demonstration how gears work together
1:27 sounded like an air raid siren
Sounds like 3t22 siren
Do you think intentionally setting the lowest gearing to disconnect after dumping the power in would make it work better? The last one at least seemed to spin longer when that happened unintentionally. Not sure how you would make it disengage, but I wonder how long it could go, and what might make the length of time spinning go up.
I believe the reason the last one spun longer was because he lubed it. Less friction means less energy loss, therefore the wheel spins longer.
+ less friction without additional shaft
youte definitly right, if they disconnected the gearing from the wheel at the end of the pull, that would allow it to spin longer and free-er. Idk that it would improve rpm, but it would give more time to measure the rpm before it dropped off.
@@EllaBananas you're absolutely right it wouldn't spin faster; it only speeds up because of power being put into it, and disconnected it can't put in more power. But spin time and reducing friction tests would be neat to see.
@@Airin258 good point, I forgot that was the only one lubricated, but removing the second shaft by disconnecting it making it spin longer could be interesting. Also, decoupling might make it spin more as less sections experiencing friction, but also less inertia because it is removing weight, but also also it's a minor weight change because the spinning wheels are obviously vastly heavier, but also also also the bearings on the spinning section could be made more focused on low friction while the power train focuses on maximum power and ignores friction because the decoupling . . . basically it could be cool to try?
2:25 Great sound, especially with headphones on.
Sounded like a real engine tbh
@@tailsthefox8217 I agree.
audi r8 it sounds
@@nitrousracer000 👍.
Lamborghini huracan?
The spring powered ones sound like a air raid siren
Man I love this. My kid is still 3 years old and we just introduced Lego as next step from Duplo. I can't wait to do stuff like this and teach physics :)
For me, it was from Mega Bloks to LEGO and Mega Bloks, (I think it was them) because they were somewhat compatible. Probably didn't have motors or technic stuff, though.
For me it was normal lego first
Ok, I just watched almost 3 minutes of a man revving Lego... ... I have no regrets!
That did NOT feel like 3 minutes, it felt like 10 seconds lol
Welcome to the channel!
0:56 naw bro is turning into chainsaw man
Definitely has to be a great representation of how gears work in vehicles, let alone pulley systems.
with the second half of the experiment, this asks the question; can we spin the small lego wheel even faster?
Oh yes, we can!
Yes, obviously. The less mass on the wheel, the less torque needed to spin it, even with the part limitations (as in, the axle twist and the damage from lack of lubrication). So given the same amount of torque applied (same person and gear set), you will see an increase in RPM.
@@vtr0104 but at the same time, it would require more strength to keep the rpm stable
@@yourbigfan1777 Yeah, at one point you'd have to swap out the regular LEGO axles with something more on the metallic side
1:05 sounded like a dirtbike
Fr
I never thought Lego could sound this awesome
Amazing, you got me really into engineering projects like this😊
A bit of a question: how much electricity could you generate by spinning the wheels by hand?
The speed doesn't really matter that much since it's all about energy in vs energy out. We would be talking about some fraction of how much energy our hands provide into the system which isn't that much. Imagine people using exercise bikes to provide electricity, it hasn't caught on because it's not that effective.
not much, since you would need a super high efficiency dynamo, and also think about the gear ratio and the inertia
Less then a normal hand crank generator.Conservation of energy and all
Very little
how long do you want to spin?
That’s cool!!
Please try it out, or make one motor get to a high rpm
I like when the legos stop making normal noises and just start screaming
everybody gangsta until the contraption starts sounding like a freaking racecar
The "Beyblade" drawstring is powerful...!
Actually, that would be a fun video idea! "Lego Beyblades".
Honda civic mfs at 3 in the morning: 2:26
truest thing I have seen today
0:19 sounds like lamborghini aventador
1:14: remember that this one reached higher RPM than most car engines
That final sound, sounds like a true engine... It could be a trick for sound designers in racing games !
Yeah.
no it sounds like the slowest and baddest and worst computer doing a startup
and then exploding
I see someone else has already suggested the steel axle. The ripcord was a great idea! I wonder if the rubber tire induces air resistance. Maybe you can achieve a higher top speed by removing the rubber tire
The inertia probably helps more than wind resistance hurts tbh
But it will slow down almost instantly, the wheel is there so the slowdown is slower.
It does somewhat, I think in the last video he made where he spun the shit out of a wheel he put it in a vacuum chamber and it picked up iirc 10-15%
@Marshall Williams I'd be interested to see the tradeoff if the rubber tire was instead a lead wheel: You'd get an increase in duration of the system, but probably at the cost of RPM given how briefly the energy inputted lasts.
Using steel parts kinda takes away from using just legos though...
i love how the slow mo of the 19k rpm highlight sounds like a muscle car revving up
i like how the smol gear is like "aight, my people need me!"
When you don't have lego motor for your lego experiments
2:19 The sound is beautiful
Sounds a bit like old f1 car or superbike
Or like big chainsaw
Sounds more like one of the Lamborghinis
@@Rentta for me it sounds like a tuned gallardo engine
@@ItsMeKeryao and like a Lamborghini huracan engine rev up
That was really, really cool. It makes me think about how human tech is so advanced that a toy can be made to spin a thing faster than was probably even possible with state of the art tech what, 300 years ago?
This has convinced me that with enough gears and string we could have cars running on hand cranks but big oil wouldn't want us to figure that out
Is it bad that, as a Mechanical Engineer, I was giggling like a schoolgirl for the entirety of this video..? Haha! I LOVE your videos, my friend!
me too
2:03 man, someone really needs to make Lego bearings already
Why not try Technic wheel hubs?
That I want
The longer this goes on the More I hear the engine of a car and I love it
Ngl sounds like an air raid siren
1:32 this is what a chainsaw sounds like
Or Motorcycle
Suggestions: 1) test of the various traks tipes for tension resistance. 2) speed testing said tracks.
alternative title: stages of that lambo at 2am
its so cool how you can multiply the speed by getting a bigger wheel to rotate a smaller one, the amount of energy this would be making would be quite impressive
it's at the cost of torque though it won't be moving anything much
This may be the closest I’ve yet come to an intuitive understanding of how gearing works; thank you.
Very impressive, I didn’t believe that you could reach so many rpm with the hands
Gears do the magic
That 20,000 rpm slow-motion genuinely sounded like an engine.
It sounded like your friend’s Honda Civic at 2AM
The Einstein of Lego: very buff according to this video
This is a powerful video! 🔥 Thank you for always making these 😃
Its so immersive feels like im spinning them myself
I can't belive that some tiny LEGO pieces have the same RPM than a highest Formula 1 RPM ever!
Damn the last spin actually sounds like a petrol engine. So satisfying
1:15 I am Amazed and Happy to see the wheel go so fast! This reminds me of that rope top toy I played with lots of years ago
Conclusion: human strong
With RPM reaching 1,700 just by spinning with your hand is quite impressive
man is breaking the sound barrier with a lego
This will be our new siren
Why are these videos so good, there's basically nothing really happening other than *SPIN* and I love it
2:22 Impressive 🔥
2:30 This is sound race car be like:
Wow on the last bit the wheel sounded like a car raving it's engine
Those sounds are freaking AWESOME!!! And that’s by hand rather than with motors!
What I like with your channel, to compare with other "bricks experiment channel" is that you do not want to break record, just to break record, which can lead to bad design choice. You make it for testing, with the correct solutions. Even if I am not interested by breaking record, I am always surprised by the idea you come up to figure out the problem in a smart way, instead of just using 100x motors for instance. It is a nice way to show how a problem can be solve using mechanic.
You just about invented time travel with that speed
When the wheel spins so fast that it sounds like a lambo then you know!
You know you are crazy when you make gears and string sound like a supercar
This Guy Makes spinning wheel with hand Enjoying!!! Love this Guy's Effort
For the string and lube tremendously gives me beyblade vibes, for the ones who doesn’t know (the string and lube) actually works like a string launcher in beyblade, sheesh I wish I could see a beyblade launch with the use of lego. Your videos are amazing!
“Lubed and smooth” Hahaha.
2:26 In slow motion, this feels like a WW2 fighter plane.
That's cool! And while it's fun to experiment with LEGO it actually had been interesting to see what's achieveable with metal instead of plastic. It should allow far higher rpm.
That LEGO stick thingy turned into a licorice candy.
I like how it starts as a Lego wheel and becomes Lightning McQueen at the end
When he nearly hit 20k rpm, it sounded like a lambo lmao
0:32 when your car finally stars after 2 hours not knowing what broke
Everyone is gangsta, until lego starts to sound like ferrari
Everyone gangsta til the Lego starts sounding like a lawnmower
2:15 WOOOOOOOW…………. That was so f cool!!!!!
1:52 vtec kick
the neighbors at a sunday morning: 1:25
The last one in slow motion sounds like an engine running, or a Neato robotic vacuum with an engine! (Laughs) 🤣
0:46 For some reason I have a sudden craving for Twizzlers...
dang that is hella faster than i thought this video would reach
I am impressed you can spin a wheel that fast
you really know that the lego gears are spinning REALLY fast when there is some resistance against you.
