- Plastic, foam or paper cups can easily be made into indoor flying objects that demonstrate the force that causes curveballs, golf balls and many other examples to curve due to the Magnus effect. A variety of sizes and variables can can this simple experiment into a fun and educational learning experience.
Doesn't work with wine glasses :/
It would but that idea was vetoed by my wife
:D
Hahahaha!!!! :D
vetoed? lol
lol
Fun video Bruce!
SmarterEveryDay hey love ur vids
SmarterEveryDay well if its not our good friend Destin
hi
SmarterEveryDay I watch you!!!!!!!!!
SmarterEveryDay i
Mr. Yeany I found your channel a few days ago and I've been going through your videos, watching a few every day, and I have to say you're awesome. You're enthusiastic, and that's something I think, overall, a lot of teachers and professors don't give their students/colleagues. In each and every video I can see how excited you are by all these concepts. Keeping the enthusiasm for science and physics alive in middle and high school is soooo important!! Keep it up!
Wish I had you for science class in high school.
OMAD LIFE if I had Bruce for science I would not miss a single day
same
Hiliana Garces You should never skip class. Kids around the world don't get the opportunity of a first-class education.
I like how much he enjoys when his creations work.
Revtune how does not wish him 😢❤
Genius use of an LED and long exposure!
iikrrr
I think if all teachers in the US' education system were as passionate and enjoyed their work as much as you our public education system wouldn't be a mess.
Glenn Griffon i agree
According g to some government officials, if teachers were paid more now, they would perform better in the future.
One problem you didn't include is the difficulty of teaching students who do not speak English (at least here in the USA). The problem is only worsened by policies that enable the students to avoid learning English. They graduate functionally illiterate, don't care, and neither do their families seem to care. The answer is NOT to hire bilingual teachers and office staff. The answer is to compel these students to have a proper command of English, just as we would have to learn proper French if we planned to live in France.
You remind me of my favorite teacher in high school, Mr. Renouir. I struggled with math until he came along and taught with this same passion. To this day I credit him for me making it through high school. Oh, and by the way, he was also a police officer for APD!
Thank you for being a great science teacher. I sure your students will never forget you, much like I will never forget Mr. Renouir.
nice comment, thank you!
I wish my professors taught even half as passionately as you do.
Big time kudos to you Sir, this country, whatever country you're teaching in, has a huge honor having you instruct young minds!
You're a credit to those who teach! God Bless you!
Thank You Mr.Bruce, it really helped my son for his science project, thank you so much!
Brilliant demonstration. That is called the Magnus effect and at the start of the century they tried to propel a ship with it for if those cups are rotated and placed in the wind they will create a side or a lateral force.
Mr Bruce Yeany, congratulations, you should show that demonstration to young footballers for that is the method to score a goal from a corner shot or a free kick with a lot of players acting as a barrier for the shot. All young footballers should know about the Magnus effect for they could score if they only know how and where to kick a ball. That should be taught to all children for playing with a ball, is not just play , but it is pure science and if one models it with mathematics well one can have so many artistic trajectories.
Well done Mr Yeany.
thank you for making these videos! One of the best physics teachers that I know
You have no idea how I'd have enjoyed you as my science teacher! Awesome videos.
thanks, I appreciate hearing it
Where was this guy when all of my teachers were busy not giving a shit? What an awesome teacher.
You Sir, are the kind of teachers that are desperately needed the world over. Respect.
The most useful part of this as a physics demo is when you fire it on a vertical axis. It curves sharply to the side but drops very quickly to the ground. This proves that the distance covered in the "normal" orientation is because of the lift generated by the rotation, rather than just by the ballistic effect of being catapulted. Excellent.
Oh man, you´re such a good teacher^^ your kids can be happy to have you.
With this in my arsenal, I'm sure to win Best Uncle this Thanksgiving.
David S. Good luck.
So what if you fail to show off you become worst uncle?? What a crap family
This is really fantastic! As a newish physics teacher I'm always looking for inexpensive demos to create for my classes. Thanks so much for a great channel.
I am a Pediatrician. I am going to make a bunch next week, and gift the kids. You are an inspiration to kids of all AGES! I wish I could morph myself in to your class 🤗
Thanks for making learning a pleasure.
Thank you for your kind words
These have become my new favorite videos to watch. I wish my teachers taught me more like how you teach! Keep it up!
Wow, thanks
Your one of those science teachers that your students will always remember.
1:36 that catch is worthy of the Heisman trophy
Duh, that's why he Instant-Replayed that shit!
I am an elementary science teacher in Boston. Just found your videos. Great resource to add to class instruction.
when no one around..... all teacher start doing some thing similar to this. moral of the story. never stop having fun
I'm not sure about other teachers but this is what I do. You are absolutely right. This is my 40th year teaching, I could have retired 4 years ago but didn't, why? because I enjoy and love what I do. Thanks for your notes.
se you are the kind of teacher i love. you make it fun. when teacher taught like this i learned the most.
This teacher deserves a raise!
I just discovered that if you add an additional cup to each end, the floating phenomenon is much longer. Very good video Bruce! Thanks for making science so tangible for kids....wait...everyone!
thanks Richard, we'll have to try that
All my years and I have never before seen that. Thanks fir the info. The physics is easily understandable but the idea is, for me, new.
These kids are so lucky to have a awasome science teacher
your kids are in good hands! Seeing as how the first time I learned about the magnus effect was in my incompressible flow class in college, when I was 21 years old, your kids are defintely in very good hands! Way ahead of me
Wish I had you as a science teacher as a kid, you must inspire a lot of your kids.
You are a wonderful teacher. The extra time you put into your lesson plans and making the lesson interesting is admirable. I loved having teachers like you. Teachers who loved what they learned, and love teaching what they know. I can see it in your videos. Good job. Please keep up the good work.
Thank you Banana, I appreciate your thoughts
Mr.Yeany, thanks for these awesome videos! as long as there are teachers like you around, we will be all good!
Mr. Bruce thank you for these videos. I have children and I always try to find fun stuff to do with them. I want them to question things and investigate on their own. These are fun ideas. I am starting with the paper plate speaker.
I've found myself binge watching your videos. Definitely going to show my kids this one as a home project!
Went out and bought the stuff to make these so me and my Nephew, as well as His friend next door, can participate in this activity, Love the Cup Gun, I may just have to invest some time into making one myself!! Thank You Bruce for all of these Awesome Videos, Makes life More Interesting when you see the Eyes of your loved ones Light Up and want to know more!! Sincerely, JeffQ
I love how you laugh each time you launch one. It is that which makes teaching physics fun… enjoying it yourself 👍
thanks, I really do enjoy this myself
It makes such an interesting trajectory. That sharp spike, it almost feels like it goes backwards for a moment before resuming forward movement.I think air resistence kills that large linear momentum the cup got from the rubber band, but the cup's rotation never stopped so it continues to accelerate it forward. But it's odd that it stops, I would have guessed that it reduces velocity until a specific value and stays there.
You really threw us a curveball with this one...
nacoran *badum tss*
Are you the narrator from how its made?
nacoran दन
Great video! When I was a kid, I loved teachers who taught in this manner.
Man oh man, how a proper teacher can effect your grades... Keeps you involved and thinking. I wish we had some one like you I take physics next year and I heard most of the teachers are pretty boring. I hope not :(
thanks Thomas, I always thought the first step was to try and get some interest in the subject, then it becomes a whole lot easier
I'm physic theacher in Brazil and you inspire me a lot!!! Thanks for make this channel and spread your knowledge
thank you Carolina, I am happy to hear that it is helpful.
Man! I am a "grown up", but I can see some people in the comments have no sense of fun haha! I think your videos are awesome! Keep up the good work! I'm definitely doing this with my nephews
your an amazing teacher and i pray we get more like you. i hope my kids will have many teachers like you. your students will alwaus remember you.
I would have liked to have a teacher like you! God bless you!
He is the teacher i want. Best teacher ever
Seems like you are a very good man. Be good to all people and best of luck for coming days. God Bless you.
thank you
@@YeanyScience having trouble on rubber band😵
i would LOVE to have Bruce Yeany as my science teacher
I'm homeschooled and I barely have activities like this. watching your videos makes me want to try some and Learn about it !
Thanks Andy, that is good to hear
Love his shoes!!! Business up top to show that he cares, but comfortable and practical footwear to say "you don't control me!"
These students are so lucky to have you as their teacher
Thank you for this wonderful video Mr. Yeany!
Using the led bulbs to trace the path of the cup was really creative
This guy is the best teacher, reminded me of my high school days
That's interesting. I have not seen that done before. I will have to show my nieces when I next see them. A nice video explaining how it works.
What a fun and great teacher you are Bruce Yeany!
great touch with the LED and long exposure, really shows how it works.
i just wanna go n give like to all your videos without even watching them...cause i know for sure they must be awesome no doubt...👌👌 i wish every teacher has that much enthusiasm in their work as you have.
i wish we did this in my school this is better information in my eyes than what they actually teach
You are fantastic and your enthusiasm for science is infectious!
You can do the same thing with an empty ball point pen tube. After you've removed both ends place the tube on the edge of a table. Place your thumbs in the center of the tube and press down with some force. You can use the edge of the table to help you pinch the tube. While force is on the tube roll your thumbs back and allow the tube to move out away from you. If you do this smoothly it and evenly on both sides will create the same effect. I never knew this had a name, now I do. Thank you for the video.
please do more physics videos to save my job. DON'T STOP DOING THESE VIDEOS.
Best science teacher ever.
This guy is the coolest science teacher
why can't all physics teacher be this awesome?!
Wish my teachers were like you, definitely a cool teacher
The final flight at 45° testifies that Magnus lifting force is approximately equal to the drag force (if it is possible to separate them formally from each other). This follows from the fact that the vector sum of these forces is directed vertically upward and balances the force of gravity.
You are a very good teacher, man.
I’ve never loved physics so much.
Best part of the video was the clear enjoyment of every launch on your face
Cheers from Portugal 👏
Your science passion is addictive, glad to see a teacher with that spirit. You make the difference 😉
thank you, I appreciate your comment Portugal
I would love tohave you as a teacher. Tbh science (in general, but mostly physics class ;)) classes are the most hands on and are the most fun.
Thank you. A great demonstration used to explain the Magnus effect.
We need more teachers like you.
thanks Calab
That's a coolest thing I've ever seen. Now I need to build a hover car.
A teacher said the word gun, better hope the board of education doesn't find out. Good job keeping the kids interested in science, keep up the good work.
I think we've lost a bit of common sense lately, and thanks for the comment
Really liked the long exposure effects. Very cleaver and simple way of showing the flight path which I had never considered. Shows that sometimes all the technology we have can sometimes make us forget the more simple solutions. Seems like there is a lesson in there somewhere haha Thanks for the great video as always.
you can do a similar experiment to demonstrate this same effect by taking a cheap ball point pen with a plastic cylindrical body, stripping all the internals away, ink cartridge and back cap and simply putting the plastic body on one of your hard table top's and pressing firmly with your thumb until the pen body slips out from under your thumb.
I never tried that but will see if I can get the hang of it, thanks
Wow bruce. Awesome lesson. I would've killed for a teacher like you in school. Thanks for sharing!!!
used to take apart bic round stics and "pop" them with my thumbs to make them sort of float. now i know how that works!
U really are doing hard work to make physics simple and easy to understand...
I am a regular youtuber and loves watching your experiments...
This is my first comment just to thank you for these experiments.
Thanks for sharing your work❤️
thanks Tinu!
I would love to have you as my science teacher! Keep up the good work making physics fun and informative 😁
You are just having too much fun... and I bet your students love you!
I do keep myself amused
The laugh at the end after the cup gun is is classic, good channel. Thanks
brilliant idea..thank for bring us more fact n trick about scientific effects..good job
thank you Udang
You have had very lucky students to have such a great teacher as yourself. I can only say that of a few teachers as many didn't give a rat's ass about their class or the lectures. I do however remember a science teacher being so mean yet that's were I learn a lot of great things that still to this day I can and do use. Gotta love teachers that enjoy and teach with such passion.
Thanks for sharing your vids with the web.
thanks jeanious2009, after all these years I still love being in the classroom
Bruce your students are very very lucky to have you.
Excelente video. No conocía el efecto magnus, gracias por el knowledge.
Great, and it's a nice physics effect similar to flettner rotor. Flettner rotor in cup shape as you will, which is used on a ship (E ship 1). nice demonstration of Magnus effect.
thanks,
Great segment.
Going to do this with my 4 year old Son!
Great!!! the best way of show the magnus effect !!!!
fantastic inspiration for my junior science classes. you are fantastic!
Oh jeez, you had to have that one student that starts singing the Frozen song every time she hears anyone say "then... let it go", lol.
Great video!
I like that you get right into the video without a lot of talking and BS.
your videos are great fun ideas to share with the family
I really envy your passion and enthusiasm!
Your videos are great! Very fun and very educational!
You are fantastic with that invention, thanks.
Hope all science teachers will be as good as you sir...
Why couldn't I have had a teacher like this in school?!?!
i love how you laughed after each cup shots. its just so adorable hahaha
