​@Notwhitewolf While electrolysis of relatively pure water produces basically pure H2 (hydrogen) at the cathode and basically pure O2 (oxygen) at the anode; if the water is nearly saturated with sodium chloride (the primary component of table salt), something different happens. H2 and O2 are still produced, but the O2 is mixed with Cl2 (chlorine gas) and in the water (rather than bubbling out with the gases), NaOH is produced (sodium hydroxide, commonly used as drain cleaner and in various detergents and other cleaning products).

2:30 this is used in genetic and proteomic testing using electrophoresis gel. The protein or gene strand is put into a gel with varying degrees of density as a current runs through the fluid and pulls the materials through. Based on the length of the genetic strand it will stop moving at a certain point in the fluid because of friction and you can use this to see if your sample has a gene strand or protein that matches your control.

Thanks for a great video as usual! This doesn't need a fancy name - it's a simple example of the right-hand rule (the Lorentz force F= qv x B associated with a charge moving in a magnetic field producing a force as the cross product of those 2 vectors). As -ve ions move towards the +ve plate they will experience a force along the channel. The +ve ions move in the other direction across the channel, but because they are of opposite sign, the effective current is in the same direction and so they also experience a force in the same direction along the channel and so the entire body of water is pushed along the channel. Yes the gases are poisonous (chlorine if you used table salt) - far safer to use sodium bicarbonate to make it conductive, but when has danger ever stopped you from experimenting! 🙂 A cool thing I created back in high school, along the lines of what was shown in the debunked video, was to make the water spin - put the water in a petri dish and line the interior wall with foil, place a magnet under the dish and another with the opposite pole above the dish, suspend a pin from the top magnet that dips into the the center of the water, run a radial current from the foil to the pin (via a connection to the top magnet) and viola, you've got a model cyclotron. 🙂 Cheers.

Yeah fancy names are just historical. Railgun - the simplest and earliest example of Lorentz force use by someone who tried to conceive an electricity-powered gun. Originally it's what engineers call "linear motor" and concept of railgun was introduced in 1910s. Gauss gun or coil gun - uses same rule but force is created by inducted currents. This "water railgun" was originally conceived in early 80s and quickly replaced by "water coilgun" - a.k.a. electrohydrodynamic turbine.

I am learning about the right hand rule in college right now and was wondering if you could explain it to me, I know your thumb faces the same direction as the current but what does your pointer and middle finger represent and how do you know what direction they go in?

@@bluefates58 Plenty of videos online covering this. Most use 2 fingers and your thumb but I prefer using the fingers of the hand to represent the magnetic field lines and their direction and the palm or bent 2nd finger to indicate the push - e.g. kzread.info/dash/bejne/Zmupp7WCmq25hMo.html - be careful with exams as they almost always give problems that make it easy to use your left hand by mistake.

Gotta give a shout out to this man who's spent the past decade shocking himself to explain things about electricity that I will never have a hope to understand

Water isn't magnetic, water is conductive. Fun fact. Tap water, stream, river, or creek water is conductive of electricity. Filtered water is not because it lacks the minerals that conduct electricity

Tech Ingredients did a wonderful video explaining this. Also, you should consider getting a foot pedal for turning on some of your projects. Like a momentary switch from a tig welder so you can have your hands free. When you were holding that mot over the saline solution with the cord in the other hand I was really worried about you buddy.

@ 13:35 EB just revealed the caterpillar drive technology

I wish you made videos when I did EC engineering. I love the Full Bridge Rectifier.

*holds microwave transformer with hands* *plugs it into 240V* *drops it in water still holding it* This is more nerve-wracking to watch than freeclimbing

Mehdi just casually reinventing top secret submarine technology lol. He basically built a form of caterpillar drive. Super cool.

It's not poisonous, but it is flammable. It's hydrogen and oxygen gases. It's actually electrolysis. Would have been awesome if you put a cigarette lighter to that fizzing water.

13:31 yeah actually at high salt concentrations there's enough chlorine anion that it overtakes oxygen production so you get pure chlorine gas and hydrogen gas, as well as sodium hydroxide in the water. Concentration is probably way too small to cause harm here but it's an industrial process to produce hydroxide and chlroine iirc (chloralkai or smth)

Gases are definitely not poisonus, but definitely explosive

less salt, more plates, higher voltage, more magnets. battery psu and put under a boat to see if it moves. bonus points for catching the o2 and H then diverting them to a real engine

11:15 you know you are pushing things when the damn water starts burning XD
