Yet another treat from Andrew Szydlo and the RI. I'm loving these special at home presentations from the man himself.

This is probably the biggest upside to quarantine. Having regular uploads of Andrew! I just love him! I’d watch him talk about watching paint dry to be honest!

I've got to say, I've turned away from several other "at home video's" but Andrew makes a good show, good science, very nice electro-chemistry, very fine home made battery, and plenty of flames and such. It's nice to see an old, maybe ten years newer than my own drill press of the same make, see the corner of a mid-sized lathe now and then, and that you shop on ebay as do I, and fix cheap not so perfect parts in preference to new ones, great show, all the way around, worthy of R.I. all the way, Thank you

@extrastuff9463 3 года назад

They are almost certainly air rifles/pellet guns (either term would more accurately represent the objects), while the term bb gun is used interchangeably in some places at times it's an important to keep the distinction between those and smoothbore bb guns in mind. It was an enjoyable little video though, makes me wonder what other weird random bits he has floating around his house that could make for good lecture materials.

As always Mr Szydlo is a pleasure to listern too, always learn something even at my age,...also just want to say thanks, Andrew, for inspiring my kids years ago, and my youngest was so inspired he;s currently doing A levels, Phyics, mathmatics and chemistry.. and well on his way for an A* in all subjects......if theres ever a Nobel prize for teaching contribution then I vote Mr Szydlo as 1st place...now where did i leave that plasmatronic battery i made last week...???

Big fan of Andrew and his work! Great style of teaching and personality 😁 Great minds do think alike!! I hope he’s still with us for the next year or so because all the answers of science are about to be answered. Would be a shame if his lifetime of curiosity didn’t get to find what it all leads to and what everything is actually all about. I think he’d have the right reaction, after being amazed at how simple the answers are to all the really big questions, he’d have a proper laugh 😂

This is how Chemistry teachers should be. I had one with a similar enthusiasm at grammar school. He died in his 90's, but kept in touch with many of his students right through his life. Some of them are now Chemistry teachers. His lessons were memorable, and that's one secret of a good teacher. Thanks for keeping the tradition alive, Mr. Szydlo!

@paulmichaelfreedman8334 4 года назад

LOL The BL-5C, very common battery. Still used for example in mobile hotspot adapters.

@beachboardfan9544 4 года назад

Does the solenoid on that starter work? The gear is supposed to slide forward on the shaft and rotate.

@pwkoert6594 3 года назад

we don't know if the solenoid is bad.. because he 'jumped' over it (jump start....)

@johnsmith7676 7 месяцев назад

Watch closely... He bypassed the main lug on the solenoid, such that the result was that the starter spun up without acttvating the solenoid. Had he energized the other, main, lug on it, this would have, accordingly, projected the drive gear forward, as well.

Interesting lecture, could someone clarify the reason for the requirement of the correct polarity for lighting the light bulb. Seeing as the light bulb is purely a resistor load surely it should work in either polarity?

@blueharley2 4 года назад

it's only 12 volts. No shock hazard

@snafu2350 3 года назад

A classic trick for any science tutor (typically used in medical demos); however 12V is rarely enough PD to transfer thru dry skin (hence the 'tongue tingle test' used for checking some domestic electrical cells). 'Volts jolts; amps stamps!': it only takes ~5mA to stop a heart IIRC.. but 'fortunately' this is usually mitigated by the amount of energy dissipated by the current travelling that way (at the expense of boiling/burning off some intervening materials such as blood etc)

@CookingWithCows 3 года назад

@@blueharley2 If you've ever seen someone jump start a car by connecting a full battery to a dead one with jumper cables, you will realize that a car battery will most definitely spark and weld metal because it will put out a huge number of Amperes, even at 12 volt.
