Eddy Current is... complicated! WATCH THE FULL VIDEO:

Beautiful! Eddie Current is an electric current that's created in any conductor when there is changing magnetic fields around. Throwing a magnet through a copper pipe slows the magnet down. All I need is an aluminum foil. I Wrap around my paper pipe and tape it.

Now my magnet drops through Air at this rate and through the pipe the exact same rate. Thanks for cheering me up! Okay then to reduce the resistance, I'll use the entire pack of aluminum foil. Yes, here's the magnet to the thinner foil. Dang, just drops.

And here is a similar magnet to a thicker one. And if I pick a bigger diameter magnet that gets even closer to the foil goes down even slower.

    no, no, no. it's the air slowing it down. the ball is blocking most of the tube so as the ball is falling the air isn't displaced quick enough. that's why the ball slows down. I don't know who this Eddy person is, but his idea of
    some "current" being the cause isn't science. if that was in a vacuum the ball would actually go up. take that
    Eddy!

    I love your videos. They mostly tell me what would happen if I tried to play with electricity also it's funny.

    Hey Mehdi, not sure if you read comments on your shorts, but I’m curious. What sort of practical engineering aspect can eddie currents have? They seem like something that could be useful, but trying to rack my brain I can’t think of how.

    You can rap a insulated copper wire around a plastic pipe and the magnet will drop fast, but when you short out the wire ends then the magnet will slow down. One has voltage but no current.
