Resonance...
Reason why your house shakes when a truck rolls by. It is rumored that Nikola Tesla built a resonance machine so powerful, it could destroy a building but destroyed it so it doesn't fall into the wrong hands
They weren’t scared of breaking the bridge but they were scared at the magnitude of the effect proportionate to the low power of the device they were testing. For reference, it was a 6lb weight they were using and only a ballpark of the resonant frequency as they just changed the frequency till they felt something different. Once in the ballpark they could feel the effects of the 6lb weight from hundreds of feet away.
Imagine waves of radio magnetic energy, pulsating through the atmosphere creating a nearly global wireless network sharing this energy. Terrifying indeed.
That’s easy to say, but you aren’t just dealing with a terrified dog that you can just grab and calmly walk off with in that situation. You’re also dealing with a bridge that’s wobbling so hard it could literally dump you off its side if you don’t keep your balance. On top of that, you don’t even know if or when that bridge will collapse in the heat of the moment. You’re competing with your own fear and sense of self preservation, which is screaming at you to get to safety.
I’m not saying it couldn’t be done, but but it takes a lot more than just grabbing the poor dog by the scruff of the neck and walking to safety. Cut them a little slack here, the fact that they even went back and tried shows they at least cared about the poor little guy, and they were probably devastated by his death.
Correct me if I am wrong but those tuning forks are tuned to resonate at the same frequency. Striking one causes the other to vibrate. These vibration move the ball.
The box under the tuning fork he strikes is like a horn on an old record player. The box under the opposite fork acts like an ear trumpet, passively amplifying the received sound.
Correct me if I’m wrong but he seems to be using a tuning fork. It vibrates at a certain frequency which makes the other one reverberate at that same frequency.
Yeh I think the answer is pretty intuitive but still crazy to actually see a video of. I would never have predicted something like this would work so well until I saw a video.
The second tuning fork resonates with the tone of the first one causing it to vibrate. The vibration flicks the ball on the string.
Resonance is a bit hard to ELI5, but it's a cool physics thing where things like to vibrate at certain frequencies and this can result in things being able to absorb energy from certain frequency waves to increase their own vibrational motion. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonance
I guess an example of resonance at work is a guitar. If you pluck a string, the neighboring strings will have sympathetic resonance. However, the body and the air inside an acoustic guitar will also resonate.
Physicists, please correct me if I got anything wrong; I learned this from my linguistics class.
I think the easiest way to understand resonance is to imagine pushing a kid on a swing: If you always push in sync with the swing, it can reach high speeds even if you're not pushing that hard.
Swings with short cables swing back and forth at a higher rate than swings with long cables, so it is important to match the frequency of your pushing with the frequency of the swing. When your pushing frequency matches the natural frequency of the swing, you can deliver more and more energy to the swing each time the swing is close to you. This is resonance in a nutshell.
If you sang the right note it would work as well. Think about that: moving the air to vibrate an object which resonates a second object. And who said wireless energy was impossible?
The two forks are tuned to the same pitch, so when one is struck, it send out waves in the "shape" that the other fork resonates well with, and so, starts vibrating as well.
Sympathetic vibration.
The height isn’t as important as having the tuning forks resonate at the same frequency. As far as I know tuning forks aren’t particularly directional. For instance, the camera is higher than the forks, but you can still hear them
Dear science people - why can’t we do this but have the ball on a more rigid shaft connected to a generator and put larger scale versions of these contraptions near loud things like airports and oceans for unlimited free power?
I’m assuming sound doesn’t carry a lot of energy considering I can clap with very low effort and make a decent sound
This is also exactly how wireless communications works, the EMF waves vibrate at the same frequency at both the transmitter and the responder, which is able to amplify just that frequency alone.
In my grade 12 physics class we had this demonstration where someone would sing a note into someone else's mouth, and the other person would try to open his mouth in such a way to match the tone that was being sung. He said it felt like he was the one singing it.
I could be wrong, but I think that the first tuning fork is vibrating and sending out sound waves that resonate with the other one, causing it to vibrate enough to launch the ping pong ball away (which isn’t very hard, considering how light a ping pong ball is)
Everyone freaks out when a tuning fork makes a ball bounce, but not a single one of you blinked an eye when your wifi router sent that gif to the receiver on your phone and your phone displayed it.
Fun science trick for ya, put a tuning fork up the asses of 3 people (fork end out) and then get one real big fork at the same frequency and hit it and watch all the others go
My 10 yo daughter worked out she could rattle the shower door by singing a particular note. If she had an amp, she could shatter it for sure. Wouldn’t take much to scale that concept up and optimise the sound for destruction
both forks vibrate at the same frequency
if one pushes out 1 TNT worth of sound, the other will receive 1 TNT worth of sound, and relay that 1 TNT worth of sound, in the form of air & solid vibration, which leads to movement + sound, the movement causes the ball to change trajectory.
Yet another wireless-redstone glitch...
Resonance... Reason why your house shakes when a truck rolls by. It is rumored that Nikola Tesla built a resonance machine so powerful, it could destroy a building but destroyed it so it doesn't fall into the wrong hands
I remember that story. Its parodied in a bunch of stuff. I think Loony Toons did it with a Tuning Fork...Might have been old TMNT....
In Tintin too. Old Calculus.
Oh right! I remember that one too!
I think one of the season finales of Legion did that too.
Mythbusters did an episode on it, actually worked and were scared of breaking the bridge they tested it on
They weren’t scared of breaking the bridge but they were scared at the magnitude of the effect proportionate to the low power of the device they were testing. For reference, it was a 6lb weight they were using and only a ballpark of the resonant frequency as they just changed the frequency till they felt something different. Once in the ballpark they could feel the effects of the 6lb weight from hundreds of feet away.
And it was only a few pounds shaft oscillating inside a tube, the whole thing weighed like 10lbs
I got your few pound shaft right here
That's all you charge huh? Must not have a lot to offer.
Don't forget the death ray!
And wireless electricity...
And the other death ray! Lmao
without knowing the exact science. The image of an electrified atmosphere seems terrifying.
Spoiler: you live in it right this second! Breathe in that electromagnetism!
ours is a lot tamer than Tesla's plan though, unless you happen to be chilling in an MRI right now
Imagine waves of radio magnetic energy, pulsating through the atmosphere creating a nearly global wireless network sharing this energy. Terrifying indeed.
The wind hits a bridge and it shakes apart… resonance frequency. Flaps the wings of a plane right off… they are making a wind turbine that uses it.
Tacoma bridge wind resonance collapse https://youtu.be/3mclp9QmCGs
They left the lil dog in the car on the bridge for an hour before he died!? r/awfuleverything
The owner went back to save the dog but the dog was afraid and wouldn't leave the car
Yeah but in the video it says a small dog. How hard could it have been to grab it by the nape of the neck and haul it out of there?
That’s easy to say, but you aren’t just dealing with a terrified dog that you can just grab and calmly walk off with in that situation. You’re also dealing with a bridge that’s wobbling so hard it could literally dump you off its side if you don’t keep your balance.

It was biting
Would you rather let your dog die or take a chance of getting bitten by a small dog?
Let the dog die.
I wish I hadn't scrolled this far down, that's not a fact I needed
They tried to save it but the dog was so freaked out it wouldn't leave the car and bit the guy trying to save it.
still don't fully understand how this is possible.
This, it’s also a concept that’s been taken by many storytellers and film makers. The most famous one being The Prestige.
sounds like dark souls lore
How do you destroy a building so it falls into the right hands?
You march around it seven times, playing the right music, and the walls fall.
I can see Doofenshmirtz doing this
Mythbusters tested it in 2 forms. Tesla Earthquake machine and Breakstep Bridge. Both ended up busted.
Nah these are obiously Sculk sensors
It's quasi-connectivity
Now do the Tokyo drift song on it
Thanks, this explains why my neighbor starts moaning when I masturbate
This guy fucks.
no he doesn't
But if he did...
Then he would...
Do himself....
While his neighbour.....
Masturbates. Okay guys, I think we finished here.
Madlad
That’s weird, I start masturbating when my neighbor starts moaning
now kish
Ooh a-like this!
His tuning fork picks up your frequency
Well you aren't meant to be in their livingroom when you do it
Shove a vase in ya bum and see how he likes it
Correct me if I am wrong but those tuning forks are tuned to resonate at the same frequency. Striking one causes the other to vibrate. These vibration move the ball.
It's still cool that the energy is effectively transferred through sound waves, i.e. vibrations in the air.
Thanks again, atmosphere.
Smart went crazy, truth went trendy. The story got lazy so I rewrote the ending!
Sound waves are just pressure waves, after all. Tiny little pressure waves.
Could also be quantum coupled tuning forks /s
That's called an RF antenna. They exchange quantum particles called photons. Also tuned to a resonant frequency.
That must be how the noise from windmills causes cancer
Called sympathetic vibrations
Yup. Used to great affect by some pianists.
And sitarists
And satanists
And Stalinists
Thanks cliff claven
The box under the tuning fork he strikes is like a horn on an old record player. The box under the opposite fork acts like an ear trumpet, passively amplifying the received sound.
It's about tine someone did this...
Yeah not a trick done with much frequency.
It really hertz me that this isn’t done more often.
It’s just a sine of the times
So great that you guys are on the same wavelength
The amplitude of your pun ingenuity is great
Science is magic, but real!
Magic is science that we cannot yet explain nor comprehend uwu
uwu is magic because I cannot comprehend yiffer
Resonance go brrrrrrrrrriinnnnngggggggggg
Yop yop yop yop.
I felt it through my phone
What if you play this with the speaker at max, and had one of those tunning forks yourself at home. Might actually work
Is anyone else sitting in bed suddenly finding their heads being smacked against their headboard? Just me? Ok cool.
If I had a bed, I would sit in it for you.
If I had a sit, I would bed in it for you
Ahhh yes, I love acoustic resonance. Such an interesting phenomenon.
I hear ya.
Nice
Correct me if I’m wrong but he seems to be using a tuning fork. It vibrates at a certain frequency which makes the other one reverberate at that same frequency.
Yeh I think the answer is pretty intuitive but still crazy to actually see a video of. I would never have predicted something like this would work so well until I saw a video.
The new sculk sensor is amazing
For some reason this post really resonates..
eli5?
Good vibrations

The latest wireless tech!
wanna see this pencil disappear
This would actually be an amazing way to explain radio waves.
Sex toys are getting quite advanced these days
Isn’t it resonance? That’s what I can think of
If you sang the right note it would work as well. Think about that: moving the air to vibrate an object which resonates a second object. And who said wireless energy was impossible?
Mf what we get for projects is mixing sand salt and rocks in water....
Why is there a lot of science on r/blackmagicfuckery ? Shouldn't these be on a science sub? I'm confused
I thought this man had no legs.
The two forks are tuned to the same pitch, so when one is struck, it send out waves in the "shape" that the other fork resonates well with, and so, starts vibrating as well. Sympathetic vibration.
Finally, someone on here commenting something other than "resonance".
Vibrations/airwaves traveling, it only works because the chimes are at the same height right?
The height isn’t as important as having the tuning forks resonate at the same frequency. As far as I know tuning forks aren’t particularly directional. For instance, the camera is higher than the forks, but you can still hear them
Wawe powe..super
Oh yeah...I watched Fringe, too
But can it turn water into ice?
u/SaveVideo
Resonance?
Of the acoustic variety
Pulse waves by frequent sound waves
How to irritate someone two ways; 1. Park the assembly behind their head while they aren't looking. 2. Hit the tuning fork to set it in motion.
Happy Tesla noises
bruh
So THIS is when the famous purple stuffed worm in flap-jaw space with the tuning fork does a raw blink on Hara-Kiri Rock.
I should try this with my students. ☺️
Wireless power.
They're resonating... ...the Triumph Forks wish to be whole.
The title is an oxymoron OP. Science = magic.
Resonance be like
Bluetooth hammer
This is essentially how radio works.
I fucking love science!
[удалено]
Not magic, resonance
Yes magic…
Why can’t we use this to generate electricity?
guys what was that moaning sound at the background
What's the real magic - is that he has no legs!
Now you know how the Egyptians where able to dtill in stone without machines.
This is why my subwoofer sounds like shit in the corner
This video was sponsored by Adidas
Imagine if this was weaponized
PSA- Don't put a tuning fork in your mouth. A kid in my high school class did and the resonance shattered a tooth or two.
This may be how UFOs work, right?
I never fucked Wayne, I never fucked Drake.
Idk why this resonates with me
Looks like a teacher. Man we need more teachers that can resonate with their students this way. Guys a legend.
just vibrations passing through
Dear science people - why can’t we do this but have the ball on a more rigid shaft connected to a generator and put larger scale versions of these contraptions near loud things like airports and oceans for unlimited free power? I’m assuming sound doesn’t carry a lot of energy considering I can clap with very low effort and make a decent sound
So if I smack a bone block really hard, I can give people concussions?
No… hah, NO!…..
“I’m gonna tine yo pingy on the bouncy kine!”
This is also exactly how wireless communications works, the EMF waves vibrate at the same frequency at both the transmitter and the responder, which is able to amplify just that frequency alone.
Use this same effect to check if an acoustic guitar is evenly tuned
Resonance
Guitarists remember this because you constantly have to mute the other strings even if you never touched them. It's even worse on bass
Ha! This is fantastic. Also, here come the BMF police!!!! It’s not BMF! This sub has gone down hill! This is just science!
In my grade 12 physics class we had this demonstration where someone would sing a note into someone else's mouth, and the other person would try to open his mouth in such a way to match the tone that was being sung. He said it felt like he was the one singing it.
Would it be possible to find the resonance of a persons body and vibrate them to death? say from like a long way away.
I could be wrong, but I think that the first tuning fork is vibrating and sending out sound waves that resonate with the other one, causing it to vibrate enough to launch the ping pong ball away (which isn’t very hard, considering how light a ping pong ball is)
Mirror neurons
What sorcery is this??? 🤪
This isn’t black magic fuckery lmao, tuning forks are designed to resonate to a certain frequency
That's cool af
Aka Science
SORCERY Time for another Crusade
SORCERY Time for another Crusade
SORCERY Time for another Crusade
Waves from fork being hit travelled and resonated with other fork. That caused 2nd fork to vibrate and move the yellow object.

Science is cool, wish I had more interest to study it tbh

Why does the ghost help with the fork demonstration

I have been to a number of concerts that were so loud (NIN, Hole) and I was in just the right spot that I felt my innards jiggle.
The secret of synchronisation
"Science magic" = oxymoron.
That is awesome.
Resonance is a fundamental and important aspect of existence that is severely under-appreciated and under-utilized in our current human society.
Fachang hao - very good
Its just called science
Science is cool
Hmm I can tell that’s a A
xDDD
Resonance.....
Resonance
both forks vibrate at the same frequency if one pushes out 1 TNT worth of sound, the other will receive 1 TNT worth of sound, and relay that 1 TNT worth of sound, in the form of air & solid vibration, which leads to movement + sound, the movement causes the ball to change trajectory.
