Which makes me think though (He may have explained it in the video already and I am just too impatient to watch it all) won't there be a certain point where the viscosity is so high that pushing basically becomes so hard it's unachievable, and therefore swimming in water would be faster. Because when you up the gear on a bike, there is a certain point especially at an incline where you just can't physically push against it. Although I assume this video is also talking a little hypothetically, as in, if you had infinite amount of strength to push against the liquid

As a swimmer, I can say that these results are true under the assumption that swimmers apply a constant force on the water, and in some ways this is true. But for strokes that rely more on a gliding lotion the added resistance from the water will make a huge difference, not to mention the added stress on ligaments and joints from the higher impact forces. I mean it’s a rotator cuff injury waiting to happen. But for plastic turtles who apply an almost constant force it’ll probably work just fine.

I think with the more viscous liquids you can swim the same speed but it takes more exertion. The amount of force that you’re able to apply on the syrup is greater than the amount you can apply on the water, but that still means you have to push harder. So with the really viscous syrup, you reached the limit of the amount of force that the turtle could apply so it couldn’t swim as fast. If you had significantly stronger motors it might still be able to swim as fast or only a little slower. It makes no sense that an effect would just disappear outside of a specific range of viscosities. It would have to slowly fade (meaning that the speed slowly decreases) as the viscosity increased.

@kikixchannel

4 ай бұрын

It's not a matter of the effect disappearing. It's a matter of one of the effects being 'used up'. When viscosity grows up from water, if you use the SAME amount of strength, while you need more strength to move through the more viscous liquid, more of the strength you used to move actually is applied. But at some point, the increase in strength needed will be higher than the gain from higher efficiency. Let's add some numbers to it. Let's say you move at 1km/h if you put in 100 energy in water. You put in 200 energy but because the water is thin, only 100 units of that energy are actually propelling you forward. Now, you put in 200 energy into a more viscous syrop. Because it's more viscous it takes 150 energy to move at 1km/h in it, BUT thanks to that trait, 150 energy from the 200 you use is also propelling you forward, so you still move at the same speed. Now, raise the viscosity much higher and you get to a point where to reach a speed of 1km/h you need to provide more than 200 energy, say 210. It doesn't matter that almost all the energy you use is used to proper you forward (it cannot be 100%, as that would be a solid object). You just have to raise the energy to move faster, so for example, you will have to use 212 energy. That's 12 energy more than you could have used in the less viscous liquids. This is the point made in this video. The moment you raise the viscosity past the stage where the efficiency increases at the same rate as energy requirement, you have no choice but to increase the energy input for the same effect. But if you are comparing your best time in water, you simply CANNOT increase energy input, hence you WILL be slower.

@kikixchannel

4 ай бұрын

@@bscutajar But they need to input more energy for the same effect, therefore no, you cannot swim at the same speed in a much more viscous fluid as you can in water. You cannot suddenly become stronger simply by swimming in a thicker fluid. If you could, then your time in water would be shortened and you still would have been doing a worse time in the viscous fluid. You are changing the problem here from a body with a fixed ability, to two separate bodies with different abilities. That's an entirely different experiment, and one that never needed any sort of confirmation as it is absolutely clear that so long as you provide enough energy, an object can move through literally anything at any given speed (below the speed of light, and assuming it can withstand moving through said environment).

Pancake towels would help

Great thought experiment! I would try an experiment where more of the toy is more submerged. Right now it seems the turtle is staying mostly out of the viscous liquid, so the increase in drag is only experienced by the belly surface. As a swimmer, you aim to go as high as possible, but majority of your body is still underwater. Try a toy submarine!

Those lil guys don’t have to worry about the core strength that keeps them up though

As a swimmer, what I can tell you is that if you were to put me in syrup, I might be able to swim just as fast, but I wouldn't be able to swim for nearly as long. I believe this is what we were seeing with the turtle in the extra-thick syrup. The first thing you need is enough power to propel yourself forward in whatever liquid you're in, and if you don't have enough power to push against the fluid, you're doomed. Indeed, swimmers often make things harder AND easier on themselves by wearing drag suits (or even just all their clothes) and wide paddles. Swimming with hand paddles makes you much faster, but your arms tire out a lot sooner. You can push harder because the surface area of your hand becomes bigger, but if you lack enough musculature to push yourself forward, it doesn't really matter. You could pair your paddles with a drag suit to maintain the same speed as unencumbered, but you would fatigue sooner. (This would be a valuable exercise for a swimmer-basically, it's just building muscle and fatigue resistance over a shorter time. It may cause joint problems, though, because you're really loading the shoulders and elbows. I doubt anyone would do this for long.) I'm not a physicist, but even on its face, this seems like it would require more energy. You can swim just as fast because you can *push harder* to overcome more drag. Pushing harder by definition means more force. What you should test is how long can a battery powered device continue to propel the craft in the more viscous fluid versus in water. I suspect it would last fractionally as long in the syrup. Probably half as long for a liquid that's twice as viscous, but it probably also relates to what the average output of the motor is.

I thought about this for a minute, but in truth, what's happening isn't that the turtle is pushing harder. If the turtle had to push harder, and thus use more power, in order to be able to make it through the syrup at the same speed, it would have been slower in this video. This is due to the fact it has the exact same motor as the other toy and uses the same motor whether in water or syrup, and no matter what always uses the same amount of power, unlike a human. If the turtle were using for example 10W of power to get across the water, it wouldn't suddenly start pulling 20W of power to get across the syrup at the same speed. It would still be using the same motor at the same power, meaning that if it truly needed more power to keep its pace then it wouldn't be keeping pace with the toy in the water in the first place. What's happening, as he said, is simply that each stroke the toy takes with the power it would be using in water should be slowed down by the syrup's viscosity, but is instead counteracted by how far the turtle gets pushed due to how easy it is to propel itself through the syrup comparative to water. Using the same amount of force, it is able to push itself further, but also is slowed down by viscosity, meaning it ultimately ends up the same speed and the same amount of energy used.

@StickyIckyOOHWAY

3 жыл бұрын

@@CyberCactus i thought of this too, but this is a matter of two things here: torque and maximum speed. the torque of the motor is enough to keep the flaps spinning at max speed in the syrup as in water, and since the maximum speed of the motor is the same in both liquids, there is no difference. (It probably also consume more energy, but im not really sure about that, im not very literate in electronics.) If the motor was not as powerful, you would indeed see the difference in speed, as it would slow down in syrup. in fact it actually did, in the more viscous liquid. the motor's torque was overmatched by the viscosity, as it could barely move its flaps.

@CyberCactus

3 жыл бұрын

@@StickyIckyOOHWAY Well if the toy was merely able to keep itself at max speed in the syrup, but had to pull more power to be able to do so, then it would logically have to be pulling less power from its motor to go the same speed in the water. This would require some kind of cap or limiter to be in place preventing the toy from pushing its little paddles harder than it does while it's in water. Otherwise, it would always use the same power and the same expended energy across liquids. I doubt the little toys he used in the video had any limiter that prevented them from putting the same amount of power into the water as they did into the syrup, and without limitations in water the max speed simply would have been *higher* in the water than it would in the syrup if the syrup were requiring more energy to wade through, due to the paddles having the same power from the motor which results in an easier time moving the paddles in the first place. I agree that the motor's lack of torque was a major contributor in why it wasn't able to move through the much more viscous liquid at the end. These fluid dynamics are strange but it seems there is simply a point in viscosity in which things stop moving easily, but until that point everything moves the same, like he went over at the end of the video. I'd love to see more demonstrations of the experiments so I can actually understand it better, at the moment admittedly I'm just theorising. You could absolutely be right and I'm missing something but so far I'm still convinced about my energy argument.

A lot of this depends on how the speed of the "motor" varies with the drag. In your last example the paddle-arms were barely moving at all so of course it went slow. What would the results be if the turtle were designed so the arms moved at the same speed regardless of load? One difference between the experiment in the paper and your tests is that the guar gum has little effect on the density of the water, whereas the syrup you used would substantially increase the density, and so the swimmer/turtle would float higher in the fluid, which would in turn have an (undetermined) effect on the speed. The reduced cross-sectional area and the higher viscosity would have opposite effects on the form drag and it is not clear which effect would be stronger. Floating higher could also affect how well the driving surfaces (turtle's paddles, swimmer's arms and legs) engage with the water. In any case, swimming at the same speed in a more viscous fluid would definitely require more work and be more tiring.

But in the long-run, the syrup while make the person tired more quickly, leading to reduced speed.

The turtle also took longer in the thick syrup because its movement range is just rotating and the shape of the wing is a spoon, so it had a hardtime rotating under the syrup

"The turtle could barely get through that syrup" is my new favorite quote that I'm sure no one has ever said before

"I'm not sure how well a human would do in that." Well if the Great Molasses Flood of 1919 that killed 21 people is any indication, not well.

Related to this is the thixotropic properties of some viscous liquid. The stress or agitation applied to a viscous liquid may increase fluidity.

I’d be interested to see, what if you filled the middle of the container with water, and the outer edges with syrup, how fast would the turtle be then, having the syrup to propel itself and the low viscosity of the water to swim in. If that makes sense 🤔

@Somebritishgeezer™ that’s kinda rude

@TheActionLab (a beleated) Thanks for another interesting video. Though it made me curious as to how much energy You would expend in the different media. After all it might be possible to "offset" the somewhat higher "form drag" by being able to "push Harder"... But would't that also require more energy to reach the equivalent speed, and if so couldn't the ""person/toy..." really have swum(?) faster if they had expended that same higher rate of energy ? Well well I guess that's just another "vital piece of information" that I will never know ;) Best regards

This is so random. I absolutely love it.

The Mythbusters already tested this in 2009. Episode 118. It was PLAUSIBLE Adam and Jamie began by digging two long trenches and lining them with plastic sheeting to serve as swimming pools. They filled one with water and the other with high-viscosity syrup made from 750 pounds (340 kg) of guar gum and 10,000 US gallons (38,000 L) of water. Adam and Jamie each swam three lengths in the water to establish their average times, then did the same in the syrup. Adam’s time in syrup was 28% slower than in water; Jamie tired quickly and withdrew from further testing. They also performed tests with other syrup formulas with lower viscosity. Adam again swam three lengths in each pool and found that his syrup time was now only 2.8% to 5.4% slower than in water. Next, they invited Olympic gold medalist swimmer Nathan Adrian swim through each substance. Nathan’s times were erratic because his technique was so highly honed for pure water, and his results were thrown out. Based on the results for light and medium syrup, which they considered to be within the margin of error for their testing method, Adam and Jamie declared the myth plausible.

I was promised an olympic swimming pool filled with clear syrup and feel cheated. I want to talk to your manager!

I can imagine How To Basic doing way more.

You should retry the experiment with ether or acetone, or some other very low viscosity liquid, to see if something four times less viscous than water has an inverse effect or not.

Hello I love your channel. I was wondering where did you get the turtles can you sent me a link please

It makes sense, in really thick syrup, you won't be strong enough to push off the syrup. It's like pedalling your bike on the highest gear. If it's slightly more viscose then it's like upping your gear by 1 where you would pedal slightly slower compared to the lower gear

These turtles combined with that paddling sound is just so adorable

With syrup you have almost a grip, it puts more resistance on your body allowing you to almost grab onto something and physically push off of it while swimming. Granted the viscosity of syrup is way higher than water, but they both have liquid properties. Both are swimmable and both can be traveled in.

My physics and swimming teacher needs to see this

The orange turtle looked slightly bigger to me. So it was faster. That’s why it won in the water and tied in the syrup. Also organic real maple syrup is way more watery than the syrup you are using. I recently tried real fresh maple syrup and it’s so watery compared to the crap I’ve bought my whole life 😂
