Rare access to 'eighth wonder of world' - BBC News

oritteropo says...

Well... it is. In 2001 a grocer was convicted for using scales which only showed imperial weights, but that doesn't mean that the people have wholeheartedly adopted the system (see this article from BBC News Magazine for example).

I visited in 2002, and found that it was metric enough to make it comfortable for an Australian We were visiting a friend who is a vet nurse... who would weigh animals at work in kilograms, but herself in stones. If you've watched Gav and Dan in the slowmo guys videos, they measure distances in centimetres, inches, metres, kilometres, and miles.

Might I also point out that the U.S. is also officially a metric country, and has been for 148 years, after an act of congress was passed authorising the use of metric weights and measures in 1866 (ref http://science.howstuffworks.com/why-us-not-on-metric-system2.htm), and having been the only English speaking country to become a signatory to the Metre Convention (in 1875).

I thought UK was on the metric system.

Momentum, Magnets & Metal Balls - Sixty Symbols

messenger says...

I think that's what we would see. It also follows that the first ejected ball would leave with a much greater velocity than the second ejected ball as the second collision from the incoming ball would have been much smaller. Now I want to know what would happen if there was only one ball after the magnet. What do you think?>> ^oritteropo:
Based on that, I wonder if a slowmo of the ball in the original video might've shown that it bounced slightly before coming to rest?

Momentum, Magnets & Metal Balls - Sixty Symbols

oritteropo says...

Thanks

I was actually going to suggest that the first part of the experiment should be fairly easy to replicate, with a track and marbles or ball bearings or similar. Unless you have a constant grade the velocity (and therefore momentum) calculations will be a bit tedious, and it occurs to me that angular momentum may have some effect too, so perhaps a video camera and some marks on the track (or sensors and a microcontroller) to directly measure the velocity just prior to impact would be easier. To confirm or disprove my assertion you want to keep increasing the momentum of impact until it's more than the momentum of a two balls, and see what happens.

There are videos of a Newton's cradle type setup only with different sized balls, I might go looking tonight.

p.s. Didn't find that one, but did find a good explanation of the one vs two ball collision issue in Newton's cradle:

That shoulda been @oritteropo too.
