The Physics Of Minecraft

hey there welcome to life noggin you might notice I'm in the Minecraft world no this didn't just become a gaming channel all of a sudden you are in the right place however a Minecraft life noggin episode has been our most requested we want to thank you for your continued support it means a lot so let's have some fun with this shall we minecraft is undeniably an extremely popular game but how similar is the Minecraft world to our own first off let's talk gravity to put it very simply it's the force that makes objects fall to the ground some of the blocks in Minecraft obey gravity like sand and gravel but the rest seem to just ignore it for example we have this tree right here if you chop the bottom the top of the tree will just stay there floating in air that's a pretty fundamental difference right off the bat but if you're up for it let's get a little more complicated you can also carry around cobblestone with you no big deal right well if we had enough of them we would be carrying over 4,000 pounds on our back that's heavier than most cars now assuming that the density of cobblestone is around 2 or 3 grams per cubic centimeter if we had enough of them assuming their volumes are pretty tiny the weight would add up very quickly if we had one cubic meter the size of a normal Minecraft block it would weigh 2 or 3 tons in the Minecraft world you can find different minerals at various levels underground gold is normally found at a greater depth than diamond which is actually consistent with real life some of the deepest gold mines are more than 3 kilometers deep and while diamond is formed over 150 kilometers underground kimberlite eruptions bring them closer to the Earth's surface the Minecraft world also has its own version of electricity called redstone using a redstone power source like a torch circuits can be made to power different mechanisms similar to our own light bulbs a redstone lamp will produce heat melting any ice and snow around it in an incandescent light bulb electricity passes through a tiny tungsten filament the resistance of the filament turns most of the electrical energy into heat which is transferred to the colder ice nearby and speaking of hot things you can get pretty close to lava in the Minecraft world in reality if you were standing right next to a lava channel the radiant heat could potentially burn you but with that said there's also types of lava that are insulated in others and if minecraft only has pahoehoe lava then you might be safe just don't step in it lastly you can also play around with quantum physics in Minecraft Google's quantum artificial intelligence lab created a mod called cue craft which demonstrates some important quantum phenomena for example blocks may be both a pumpkin and a stone at the same time until someone looks at them and to quantum blocks can sync up even if they're very far apart in a process called quantum entanglement so who said video games can't be even a little educational if you have a favorite video game leave it in the comment section below and maybe we're gonna do an episode on that one don't forget to come back every Monday for a brand new video and if you enjoyed this video but you're looking for something a little different than education check out our friend Lonnie over at Lonnie dose he makes mobile gaming let's play videos and they are hilarious its life noggin approved so click that and go check it out and follow us on Facebook and Twitter yeah also that I'm black oh this has been life noggin don't forget to keep on thinking
