It must be nice to have parents that encourage your scientific studies. I had to hide most of mine. Once I was melting down a huge batch of lead and used an old spoon to scoop the slag off the lead. Well I left the spoon in the garage and my mom found it while I was out and when I returned she had a drug test waiting because she thought I used the spoon for drugs.
+Robert McCain...I had nothing but science in my mind...I was a child that was never able to give us my potential. I became an alcoholic. To this day, I observe, analyze, and concoct solutions for others. But I am still lost. I am 42 years old.....find you and do not become me
one of the best... no, THE best science video i've ever seen. and i've seen tons. hat's off cody, i've learned stuff and my mind is blown. thank you sir.
I understood... WTF is happening, my teachers say I was a lost cause but you found me. I love you so much. I look up to you, because you're taller than me :')
This video might've been about Faraday motors, but I think it's really about gyroscopes. This was the first explanation I've ever heard that was intuitive; that wasn't just an explanation of products of vectors in 3-space. Really good stuff.
You deserve to have your own elective class. I'm not sure what exactly you'd be studying, but it should be very loose. Like science 101-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-etc.... I've learned more from your channel than anything in school, besides the basics
+Cody'sLab Are you a physicist, chemist or engineer? I've gone and watched alot of your content and you really know what you are talking about. You should make a video on your background in science.
So cool to see someone explaining this fundamental principle so easily. I wonder if you could do some more explaining? I feel it is time. The production of electrical energy via magnetic displacement is achieved in only one of four ways. 1. A wire is passed my a stationary magnet. 2. A magnet is passed by a stationary wire. 3. A coil of wire is energised or discharged in proximity to another coil, inducing current. 4. The polarity is changed in an energised coil in proximity to another coil of wire, inducing current. This last method is the most efficient, and with proper switching methods and speeds can produce currents in excess of the losses in the primary. I think though, simply demonstrating this fact of fast switching to your many subscribers may encourage someone to build something.
I loved how you talked about no negative, or positive forces. I know you can't actually show an experiment with potassium transmuting electrons, but I would very much like for you to take a stab at explaining positively charged electrons. Thank you very much for all of your videos!
Hey Cody, great job as always. I think you're onto something here in terms of how to teach the concept of "cross products" in physics. I would do it in the opposite manner though. We know that vectors can be multiplied in this strange way that has interesting mathematical properties like parity violation and geometric invariance but it turns out this funny form of multiplication is everywhere! Literally makes the world go round! Then all of these neat demos would be obviously part of the same phenomenon. I get the feeling that's sort of what you were going for. Either way, keep it up.
I've never heard of the Faraday guy before watching this channel, and it seems like he's known for a lot of discoveries. It's really cool to see it all in action too. Cody should be the new Bill Nye for this generation and make a cool tv show to show in schools and stuff.
I learnt most of this stuff all about electricity and motion in my gcse physics class, those are the middle three years of high school in england. Though not the vector stuff only just getting to that in the last two years of high school. What subjects did you take in high school, could you choose to drop any?
Omg, his parents must be really proud. He's so Jack-of-all-trades, helps aroud the ranch, paid his university with RU-vid, knows mining, beekiping, geology, physics, chemistry, mechanics, mathematics. Oh, Cody, You are such a nice guy :-)
The green wire spinning around is pretty cool, I wish you had the camera more head on in the last experiment, it would have been clearer to see the 90 out of phase displacement.
so would the bar magnet thing at the end. would it do that without gravity like in space? (be forced down not just away?) also is it being forced down, due to the pendulum type tension of the string? I can't tell the difference between the experiments setting and the result... im not sure how something additional can be determined from the outcome.
Hey man! You are very knowledgeable of science, is this from your schooling or are you mostly self taught? If so, what degree(s) have you earned? Anyways, I love the videos, they are super interesting and you seem very down to earth and it just makes for a better learning/viewing experience.
very thorough explanation of the Faraday effect and his experiments! Thank you for sharing I think he got bummed out that his experiment, taking advantage of motion directed tangent along fields, could not produce much torque or rpm (rotating outside the strongest magnetic field lines.) Faraday is credited with the first electric motor but as books teach, he took Andre-Marie Ampere's theory of a year earlier and others' and demonstrated it
Hey Cody don't you think that when the multimeter read something when you where pushing the magnet through the tube with wires it possibly was just picking up energy though your hand.
Question: Being my unenlightened self, would it be possible for a contraption that spreads the electricity around technically make the magnet float, since the magnet will create a force when moving (falling) but not when it's directly in the center, assuming that the electricity is equalized everywhere?
Going back to the start of the video with the wire defection, if you replaced the wire with with a length of fish tank silicone air tube and filled it with a saline solution, would it also deflect from the magnet? I see problems with generating hydrogen and oxygen in the pipe building up pressure. Food for thought.. Or maybe a test?
Can mercury be magnetized if so theirs another video you made of a pump that pumps itself an I was thinking if that could be done with magnetized mercury with a coil round could it produce a current
