Vapin On Cloud 9 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Mystery of Prince Rupert's Drop at 130,000 fps - Smarter Every Day 86: Check this out. It's hard to explain. But molten glass is dropped into water rapidly cooling it, thus making it a solid again. Because the outside is cooled faster than the inside, clipping the 'tail' of the drop created an interesting effect shown (and explained in layman's terms) in this video. Very cool and informative little video. Thoughts? raiderep 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vapin On Cloud 9 Posted January 27, 2015 Author Share Posted January 27, 2015 Thanks you guys. I was reviewing some old bookmarks iv had saved for quite some time and came across that video. I remembered how much I enjoyed learning about it and figured I'd share it with my new friends as VT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vapin On Cloud 9 Posted January 27, 2015 Author Share Posted January 27, 2015 Thanks T-bone. Unlike a lot of people my age, I see the priceless value of knowledge, whether for practical every day use or just something unique and interesting. I love to share what I know and learn what I do not. So I'm happy to share with you all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
