I Calculated Absolute Zero With Vodka 

Just an FYI, there is a maximum temperature. The first one is when an atom can't hold electrons on, we call that a plasma, but we usually consider this fine. The next is when the atom shakes so hard, there is so much energy in it, that the atoms fall apart into a proton-neutron 'soup'. This is a real absolute limit (they aren't atoms anymore). The next after *that* is when so much energy is in there, the protons and neutrons fall apart into just quarks, making a quark-gluon plasma.

YES, Celsius

@@addmoreice And after that, Kugelblitz!

Wouldn't Fahrenheit be more accurate?

@@Johnny-wv9cn what? just because its units are smaller doesn't mean it's more precise... unless you're rounding, lol

@@WillowBriansdottir I'm not sure what you mean by units being smaller but objectively faherenheit is more precise. You have more numbers and you can determine the temperature of something with better accuracy.

Cause absolute vodka is trash

@@Lunch_box Absolut tastes fine, just significantly worse than other vodkas in its price range. It tastes like Skyy, which is still pretty good.

@@arikwolf3777 Is there anything closer to negative jiggle than phase cancellation?

@@Treblaine: None that I can think of. Phase cancellation is zero jiggle and still not negative. But when I attempt to dance, I am not totally of phase, I am more like 3/4 time when the beat is 4/4 time. 😏

That's one way to increase the confidence in your results.

Haha

I can just imagine the huge grin on Steve's face when he went to the bottle shop to purchase some Absolut Vodka, and realised he could pretend it was for an experiment.

That reminds me of a story from my highschool chemistry teacher. While working with some group preparing for a competition, they ran out of ethanol. Some pupils were 18 already, so she sent one of them. We can only imagine weird looks when a girl in school uniform went on the middle of the day into a beverage store and asked for a bottle of pure alcohol. 😅

Yes! The Parker Scale! I love how I can try but fail to do something and it's still referred to as a Parker [thing].

Now I wonder what a Parker VPN would look like...

So, the question is this... is "The Parker Effect" being defined by your failures/near misses, rather than your successes? Or is it not yet good enough for an "effect" (See the Mould Effect for a successful example...)

@@Hirosjimma The Parker VPN is extra specially secure, because it scrumbly-wumblies your beep-boops using quadruple rot-13.

And apparently the captioning algorithm agrees with you, Fiaca...

It's good because being shown something that you can replicate yourself in your own home makes the information seem much more accessible and credible.

Do you recall how accurate were the results?

@@dmitriiemelianenko8531 I think we had something like -271°C. Still not that accurate but far better than this approach.

So what you did was an isochoric process instead of the isobaric process as shown here.

Did you use something like nitrogen to make sure you didn't get any condensation on the cold end? That should improve the accuracy.

I just had the axact same tought

Vsauce has a video called “How hot can it get?” in which he talks about an absolute hot. There’s actually a temperature, called the Planck temperature, at which the wavelength of the thermal radiation an object gives off would be shorter than the Planck length. So there has to be an absolute hot. If i recall correctly, tho, this would take more energy than we know of in the universe, and of course the atoms would dissolve into their fundamental particles at energies like that.

The temperature actually depends on the kinetic energy of the jiggle, not just the speed. If the atoms were to jiggle at the speed of light then the energy (and thus the temperature) would become infinite. We can keep on increasing the temperature because we can get the atoms to jiggle closer and closer to the speed of light, but never reaching it. Also quantum mechanics does put a limit on maximum temperature but that's a different matter

They are not longer atoms after a point. Now, if they keep mass, that means the more you heat the sample the harder is to make it hotter.

My thought was along these lines: Eventually you are going to cause those atoms to 'jiggle' themselves apart! Super-colliders produce temperatures close to 10 trillion degrees for a reason....

To be fair, I also kept understanding that instead of "Beep Boops" when I wasn't specifically paying attention.(Even after I got what he was actually saying.)

Fahrenheit is way more precise. That's just a fact.

@@RicardoMontania In what world do you live in that a temperature can be more "precise"? It's a flat out worse scale scientifically lmao

@@RicardoMontania no its not

One of the only reasons people hate Fahrenheit is because while in Celsius water freezes at 0, it freezes at 32 in Fahrenheit. However, if we were to just adjust the Fahrenheit scale by lowering it by 32 degrees, which we already do when we convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius, then that eliminates the issue most people have with Fahrenheit, giving us an Improved Fahrenheit scale where water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 180 degrees. And since 9 Fahrenheit degrees are equal to 5 Celsius degrees, with this Improved Fahrenheit scale we can get finer temperature gradients like the regular Fahrenheit scale with a more consistent freezing and boiling point like Celsius.

@@Gakulon Why do we want a scale that is based on the freezing temperature of a solution of brine made from equal parts of ice, water and a salt (ammonium chloride)? why not just use decimal points in the centigrade scale? I find that to be a way better solution.

Good point!

Yep, by definition it’s based on the centigrade scale. It’s the centigrade scale adjusted so zero is absolute zero not the freezing point of water. That’s all it is .

Yup... It's just a shifted Kelvin scale

Come on brain, he typed: "de mirrored" glasses not "demi rorred". Get it right.

Ok, what are demirorred glasses? The google doesn't help.

I haven't heard of de-mirrored glasses either

When you wear glasses and the sun would be sort of behind you, the light would reflect and you couldn't see, because you would be blinded sort of. (English isnt my first language, I am sorry) Therefore to prevent this glasses are often coated several layers of some material, which prevents this. In german we call it "entspiegelte Brillengläser" You can notice this trough a slight green glare or reflection from the glasses. In my physics A-level we learned sort of how this worked. The layer reflects some light and lets the other pass trough. The light wich passed trough will be reflected in the layer below and then shine out of the glasses again. The trick is to make the layer just thick enough so that the lightwave is shifted half a wavelength and therefore cancels out with the light which reflected at the first layer. This is of course a simplification, but it works and can eaven be used to explain the effect I mentioned. Because the light is refracted at an angle you can calculate how thick the layer should be, but when you put the glasses into water the angle changes, since it is dependent on the lightspeeds of the two media. So the angle changes, therefore the way and length the light passes trough the layer changes. Therefore now the orange wavelengths who cancelled out earlier are now visible and the green is not visible anymore.

Maybe the english word is anti-reflective glasses

What you are describing is the plank temperature at 1.416785(16)×1032 K. We don't know that it is impossible for an object to be hotter, our understanding of physics just ceases to function.

@@vincentbensch7164, thanks for answering. That makes sense.

It is also possible that the black body radiation equation we know and love is incomplete..A bit like the Newtonian physics before Einstein. It is a good enough approximation at low temperatures ("low" compared to Plank temperature, that is), but may need a correction at higher temperatures, sort of like Newton's equations need a correction at relativistic speeds. Based on what the correction is, the "absolute hot" may be nowhere near the Plank temperature. It may even be infinity.

@@Tensho_C They would rename the Fahrenheit scale, the Freedom Scale!

@@Tensho_C Most of them are in Celsius anyways. I can't think of any electronic I have that doesn't have a setting, or any thermometer I've seen that doesn't display both. We could even feasibly switch to kilometers and the biggest hurdle there would probably be road signs, not vehicles. Maybe if the US wasn't so damn big, it is a lot of road to cover. More likely it's the hurdle of fanatic nationalism, even though we didn't invent this system. You'd think that sort of person would have more in common with a tea-dumping patriot, and distance themselves from the European-created Fahrenheit and the English-invented foot and mile and gallon and cup.

"So Magnus plays 1.e4 and it was in this position that the opponent resigned"

Exactly! He excuses for saying centigrades but talks about grades on Kelvin scale!

He didn't refer to them as "degrees kelvin", at least not at the time stamp you provided. He said the degrees (meaning subdivisions) on both scales are the same size. A degree is a common noun with a meaning, it doesn't have to be part of an SI unit's name to be used in a sentence. In fact, it would sound rather stupid to say "a degree on the celsius scale and *a kelvin on the kelvin scale* are the same size", wouldn't it...?

@@RFC-3514 I hear you, but saying "a degree on the kelvin scale" is equivalent to saying "a degree on the meter scale." It's valid English, but it's just as redundant as saying "a kelvin on the kelvin scale." There is a single word for the concept that those statements are trying to convey, and it's in the statement already!

@@EldariusGG - No one measures length in _degrees,_ and there is nothing known as "the meter scale". That analogy is nonsense. Steve's use of the word is absolutely correct in English. A degree in the kelvin scale is called one kelvin. It is still _a degree in the kelvin scale_ (meaning a step in that scale), it is not "a kelvin in the kelvin scale".

@@RFC-3514 «A degree Celsius is the same size as a Kelvin.» Does it sound stupid? BTW, do you mean I can say «a degree metre»?

You'll find using Celsius easy if you focus on 20 degrees, which is room temp (68F). Each ten degree shift is a different clothing situation: 0 freezing 32 10 cool 50 20 indoor 68 30 warm 86 40 hot 104 Body temp 37
