World's Strongest Magnet!

this is the world's strongest magnet capable of sucking objects in generating electric current can you see that yep and levitating non-magnetic objects it even WS havoc on camera equipment wies magnetic so if it's a semas sensor the electrons just can't find their way well they get redirected so yeah if you notice bad video or audio know that it's incredibly hard to shoot in these magnetic fields a portion of this video was sponsored by Google I came to the National High magnetic field laboratory in Tallahassee Florida where since the year 2000 they have held the Guinness World Record for the strongest continuous magnetic field somebody left a chair where it wasn't supposed to be it then got accelerated across the cell completely pulled the guts out of the chair now we all have those nice super uncomfortable wooden chairs for reference the magnetic field of the earth is 0.00005 Tesla a fre magnet is around 01 Tesla MRI machines can get up to three Tesla but this electromagnet creates a magnetic field of 45 Tesla so nearly a million times Earth's magnetic field to achieve this field the magnet consists of an outer superconducting magnet and an inner resistive magnet I'll explain why you need both types in a moment the apparatus is two stories tall but the the maximum field or Field Center only occurs in the center of a narrow cylinder that runs through the middle right now it's off is it there's no M can I can I put my finger in the boore is that a bad idea no it's fine you can totally do that let me see so that's where there's 45 Tesla further down a meter away from that a meter down and so that just drops down for it's clear all the way all the way through to the bottom oh wow the maximum field is basically a cenim tall here we have very small samples think something like a chip in a computer or a cell phone that's what users will come in with so that's plenty big for what we want to do with Material Science or conects matter research since we can't see or film in the center of the magnet we're going to experiment with the magnetic field that extends above and around the magnet on this platform so the magnet's over there yes ...
