This video is incorrect. Copper traveling at high speed slows down due to induction when it approaches a magnet.

Hey @grok if a 9mm bullet comprised of lead with a copper were fired through 100 high powered magnets, would electromagnetic induction become a factor in the bullets velocity?

Non ferrous metals are non magnetic. Generally use non ferrous metals as projectiles for that very reason. Softer and non magnetic.

Why are we not talking about the Revolver ejecting the shell casing? 🤦🏼‍♂️

Cool animation… that forgot about eddy currents 😅 A 9 mm jacketed bullet is a conductor moving through a changing B-field. Lenz’s law says it gets braked hard. Look up ‘magnet drop through copper tube’ but supersonic

You are asking the wrong questions. Can 1000 magnets stop Iron Man?? Wait a minute, who wins between magneto vs ironman?

That's what you call trusting your product. 😅 Bulletproof car company CEO takes shots from an AK-47 to prove its reliability!

This dude made a Nerf gattling gun that fires over 100 rounds per second

Bullets are lead with a very thin coat of copper. Lead is non magnetic

A Magnet falling through copper pipe slows down... Wouldn't this behavior be the same if the copper was flying though the magnetic field?

🧲 We're talking about copper and lead, they're not magnetic...

How does a magnet stop lead?😁

Wrong. An Induced magnetic field will be generated on the bullet and it will slow down much faster

I newer seen a magnet that can stick to copper and lead.

Due to Lenz's law, a bullet fired through a series of horseshoe magnets would slow down if it is made of a conductive material (like lead with a copper jacket).

The M134 Mini Gun with tracers looks like something straight from a sci-fi movie while demolishing this Jeep. It can fire up to 6000 rounds a minute.

The bullet will slow down because of eddi currents induced by the movment through the magnets. So, why do you lecture fake?

is this for real? id totally watch someone test it out if it works 🤭

What would be more interesting would be to see the variables in this test. Bullets of different metals. Static vs rotating magnetic fields. There could be some wild resluts here. (Fully copper bullet vs a strong magnetic field)
