14 DAY TRIAL // A new, 10-minute video from Michael at Vsauce highlights just how hot objects can become. In fact, this short presentation indicates the maximum temperature something can achieve within the current laws of physics, before becoming something else.
In fact, our current understanding of the laws of physics does not explain what happens to something that exceeds a temperature of 141x10^31 Kelvin. Really, temperature ceases to exist at that point, since the wavelength an object this hot would emit would reach the Plank limit 1616x10^-26 nanometers.
The video also goes through the temperature variations the human body displays, shows the conditions that develop inside stars, highlights the maximum temperatures attained inside particle accelerators on Earth, and shows what happens to matter at very high temperatures.
The clip makes for a very interesting watch, so make sure you see it as soon as possible.
