Stack dominoes and trigger a chain reaction! Watch how a single tap transfers energy through hundreds of pieces, with the chain accelerating as each domino falls.
Falling dominoes convert potential energy to kinetic energy. Each piece transfers momentum to the next. A domino can knock over one approximately 1.5× its height — allowing exponential energy amplification through the chain.
Click and drag to place dominoes. Press the push button or click the first domino to start the chain. Adjust spacing and size with sliders for different effects.
Starting with a 5 mm domino, a chain of only 32 dominoes (each 1.5× taller than the previous) ends with a piece the size of the Empire State Building — releasing billions of times the initial energy.
