What Happens When You Drop A Magnet Through A Copper Tube?
In sum: the magnet induced a current in the copper pipe, which in turn produced a magnetic field. The direction of this current then opposed the change in the magnet’s field, resulting in the magnet being repelled and thus falling more slowly. Neat.
Sound does exist in the form of electromagnetic vibrations that pulsate in similar wavelengths and what NASA did was make a machine that could record these electromagnetic vibrations and convert them into a frequency that our tiny human ears can comprehend. What you’re about to hear is unaltered sound that has been recorded in space. It truly is beautiful, if not eerily ominous.
