It is a common myth that glass is liquid, but it doesnt actually flows. The reason old chruches’ windows have thicker bottom was due to 1) glass was difficult to be manufacture in large panes and 2) it provide support during construction and stability to the windows, simply so it wouldnt fall off and would be easier to place in frames. There still exist windows from old chruches and cathedrals that were made with flat pane that doesnt not deform.
when you said that there's a liquid that never stops flowing, I actually brought my thoughts on a video I watched a few years ago where a neutron star was actually a superfluid that didn't stop flowing either.
I'm pretty sure if you could survive on a neutron star you would feel like the surface is solid The Earth's Mantle would also feel solid even though it technically flows over millions of years
Just for you to know, why glass panes are thicker at the bottom, glassers simply put those imperfect panes with thicker part on the bottom for stability.
@@DatBoi_TheGudBIAS Well yes, but what he's saying is basically like what if there's like a material that the house was made of that can never rot away or break apart and last for trillions of years. And ofc if the glass in still in tact, theoretically the house will still stand and the glass would flow away? My brain can't even process what glass would look like after all that time and has dripped.
Neutron stars are theoretically considered a true superfluid. A swirl on the surface of the star would last indefinitely without any outside interference.
@@luminiumbytes9586 wait, how You said "mass of a teaspoon", that would mean that it would be equivalent to the mass of a teaspoon Are you talking about volume?If not, I am very confused
2:50 TERRARIA In Terraria there are giant bee hives full of honey and a single larva. The larva is very fragile and, when broken, summons the Queen Bee. The Queen Bee can bee unbeelieavbly difficult to beet, especially if you haven't beaten many bosses yet, because beating bosses gives you good loot in Terraria, whether it is items that the boss drops, new ores in the world, a new biome, etc.
0:34 I think it should be --xenon-- sulfur hexafluoride instead, comrade EDIT: Blyat. XeF6 is a solid in room temp. It should be SF6 instead as Mikhail suggests.
Interesting getting recommended this when I started a job that involves a lot of viscosity (and rheology in general) like 6 months ago. Also another interesting fact about ketchup (in bottles) is that it's made so if you apply a force, it thins (shear thinning) so it flows out of the bottle easier.
Fun fact for the very last the helium climb the glass but if you cool it to 0°K it can pass through ceramics because of quantum mechanics (not a joke).
Old glass panes are thicker at the bottom, because they were made by spinning a gather of glass into a disk, and cutting panes out of the disk. The glass closer to the center of the disk is thicker than the glass at the edge of the disk, leaving one end of the pane thicker than the other. The thicker end of the pane was installed at the bottom of the window, because the thinner end doesn't hold the weight of the glass as well.
Bro ngl the white text randomly appearing everytime without no one expecting it and the music getting more and more epic… was kinda spooky. Especially considering the topic was just THICKNESS.
The last stage of thickness is *T H I C C C C C* with precisely 5 Cs, making it beyond infinite thickness meaning it's so thick that it actually transcends thickness and flows slightly upwards due to going beyond the limit of not flowing down
I recall the 600 weight gear oil used in Caterpillar tractor final drives. At room temperature you could scrape it up with a putty knife and transfer it to another container.
