You create some of the best educational videos on the internet. I know I'll watch this video a lot, just like I did with the quantum physics video. Please never stop making them, once every other year is infinitely better than none.
Thank you. This is hands down the best visual explanation of tidal forces I’ve ever seen. Though I did get a bit worried when you said, “… flat earth model…”
A udiprod video? Haley's comet must have come early. I remember watching these in middle school, and they're still making new ones now that I've graduated college and gotten a job. What legends.
this is hands down the best explanation of tidal forces, while also staying correct and not going to shorthand to just explain everything away due to centrifugal force. My Professor of planetary physics insisted on the centrifugal force being real and I was not convinced and now i know again why.
Great explanation, I had no idea there was so much to it! Love the new narrator. I hope you're back in the mood for more new videos because they're fantastic!
Hey udiprod! Welcome back. Your videos helped me pass Algorithm 101 back in college and your halting problem is simply amazing. Since you're back, I'd simply turn on the notification not to miss a single video. Thanks man!
It's the very best explanation of this topic that I ever heard. Thanks. It would bec even clearer if you change the term "fictious force" to something like "lagging force" because that lagging concept really tipped the scale for me from not understanding to understanding.
What an interesting comment, and I totally agree. Thanks. Whatever makes it easier for someone to gain an understanding of a particular topic in science, is a very useful tool to have in your possession, as long as it agrees with the observational data. However, why not save yourself the trouble of inventing more fictitious names, and just call it the "centrifugal force." A *real* force that only appears in an accelerated frame of reference, in exactly the same way that the so-called force of gravity does. Albeit for the one proviso, that it acts in the opposite direction to the aforementioned force. That's what Sir Isaac Newton would've done, and I wouldn't want to disagree with him, would you? All the best.
Thank you for your added explanation. (The “fictitious force” is difficult (for me) to understand.) So, according to your explanation, the centrifugal force is a force that is pulling opposite to gravity which causes a bulge on the opposite side of the Earth because the water on that side is being pulled outwards? Is that correct? Or what if we imagine a string (gravity) pulling on the earth which causes it to become elongated, with or without any orbit involved-we could be pulling the earth in a straight line through space. This would cause a bulge on either side of the earth due to the elongation, though we wouldn’t necessarily call it a centrifugal force since the elongation would happen even in the absence of an orbit. If all points on the Earth are pulling towards the center, and an outside force pulls on the Earth, it will become somewhat elongated, and this will cause the water on the other side to be “pushed” out. I like the word you used, “lagging,” as that helps me to imagine that gravity might just pulling less on the far side water since it is further away. If this is the case, then the tide is always higher on the side closer to the moon? Also, no matter how I imagine this, it always seems more egg shaped than elongated, like hanging a water balloon from a string, unlike the images that are usually shown in these videos, which look closer to ovals. I like your explanation because the centrifugal force is easier for me to envision, and just feels more satisfying. But please consider my example where the earth is being pulled straight through space without any orbit directly towards a massive object. In this case, if the (slightly elongated) Earth is still rotating, would we experience tides? And if so, then I don’t think we would be able to say that they are caused by centrifugal forces.
Hi Wavy, I see that Marcos said lagging, not you. At any rate thank you both for your comments. I will keep watching the original video to try and get a better grasp. Have a good day.
Hi Enrique, I did read through your comment, but wasn't notified of its existence unfortunately. Probably, because it included the word centrifugal and apparently we don't like to accept the effect it has in orbital motion. You would both be very welcome to comment on my cartoon and continue the discussion if you're interested. Thank you for replying here.
This is one of the most entertaining, educational and underrated UA-cam channels out there. Hope you grow to the likes of Captain Disillusion and Kurzgesagt soon.
I've been a space and physics nerd for years. I've never quite understood why there were two tidal bulges until seeing this video. It never really occurred to me that the earth would be accelerating towards the moon faster than the ocean on the opposite side of the earth from the moon.
I’ve realized that just with the title “Tidal Patterns”, its not easy to find they site I mentioned on my previous post. What I had posted on that site was: “Farther parts of the Earth are NOT SUFFICIENTLY attracted by the Moon in order to follow an orbit equal to the one of Earth´s C.M. (if they could move independently from the rest of the planet). Due to that, they try to get a farther orbit. They rest of they planet prevents that, exerting a "moonward" force. And those farther parts exert an opposite reaction force ... All those forces stretch farther solid Earth´s parts, and where water they so called hide tide bulge builds, trying to reach an equilibrium with own Earth´s attraction (not fully achievable due to they daily Earth´s quick rotation, what also is the cause of the some couple of hours gap between high tide meridian and Moon´s actual position). A "mirror" phenomenon happens at closer half of the Earth, because its parts are attracted by the Moon TOO MUCH for the average orbit, they try to get a closer orbit, but the rest of they planet prevents it ... “ And if anybody wants to see more about previous discussion, the link to mentioned UA-cam site is: Tidal Patterns

Oh my god I was rewatching this channel videos like two days ago! Niceeee
I logged in to subscribe, your videos are so promising! I'd compare how easily I comprehend the video with others, they're made just how I'd cognitively comprehend sth.
With Udiprod’s permission, I’d like to attempt an answer for you, and then you might be kind enough to view my own “daft” little video and I’ll attempt to explain further? The viewpoint of the “cameras” has no effect on the observed phenomenon. The earth-moon system is definitely “accelerating” so, therefore, it is a non-inertial reference frame and must include the “apparent” forces. Regardless of whatever camera you want to view it with. Does that help? The “apparent” forces do not disappear just because you choose to view it through an inertial reference frame camera, but of course you (personally!) won’t feel the “apparent” forces because you’re now holding a inertial reference frame camera. So, I agree it does get confusing when you start mentioning reference frames?
Your non-inertial frame (1:33) is actually an inertial frame. To appear stationary amidst the uniform gravity field would actually require energy, and it would be the non-inertial frame. Great video nonetheless, thank you!
if you are saying that non inertial frame seems to not accelerating from the depiction, then yes. but it is one of the possible ways to show this phenomenon in a video. energy requirement thing you said sounds irrelevant, i think.
@@bewareofyikes Hi Sergio, seeing as you commented in a thread that's 4 years old, hoping someone would reply! 😂 The energy requirement is relevant. The unfortunate mistake that Udiprod made here, was with the definition of an *Inertial* frame. An inertial frame does *not* include any forces, be they real or unreal. Analysing the tidal forces in an inertial frame is what's irrelevant here, I think.
FAnTasTic Video!! Even if you may didn't make more vids, I want to say thanks to you. This is a really good explanation about tidal forces! Better than what my professors taught!
Hi Udiprod. Thanks for your video. There is one question which is still puzzling me. In the case of a full moon the tidal forces of the sun and moon exerted on the solid earth are in opposite direction. Because of that we should expect a reduce bulges sizes in a full moon state than in a new moon state? (for the same eart sun and earth moon distance in both cases). I think I miss something but I Don t know what?
You are basically right: when the moon and the sun align the two tides build up and we get a larger tide. But the moon by itself causes bulges on both sides, also the sun. So this alignment happens both in a full moon and in a new moon. It's called a "Spring tide". Read about it here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tide#Range_variation:_springs_and_neaps
Came from the MIP*=RE video and i wish the algorithm led me to your channel 4 days earlief because i just had an exam qn on this hahaha.. what software do u use btw? Great animations and explanation
UA-cam's algorithms try to predicts which videos will be interesting based on how previous videos from the same uploader have worked, based on the videos you've seen, the video length etc.
So, as for the two bulges, the bulge closer to the attractor is caused by its gravity, and the other bulge is an outward stretch from centrifugal force (i.e. inertia against circular movement)?
In early stages of production I recorded my own voice, but I don't like it so much. I do start thinking now I should work on my narration skills and try one out sometime, see how it is received.
Unfortunately hardly anything you say here about the Earth’s tides is correct, and this certainly isn’t the way to visualise them. You perpetuate a widely held misconception that the vertical/axial gravitational component is responsible for raising the tides when it isn’t. This component is tiny, about one ten millionth of a ‘g’, and the oceans are too shallow for this to accumulate any effect. If it were the dominant force there would only be one high tide a day because there would only be one tidal bulge, in effect a Roche Lobe such as is found in accreting binary star systems. There is no way that the vertical/axial model can account for the second tidal bulge, and all attempts to force it to do so, such as your swapping of reference frames, are grotesque distortions of Physics. The true source of the Earth’s tides was discovered by Euler and mathematically modelled by Laplace in his eponymous Tidal Equations. The tides are raised by the horizontal components of the Moon’s gravitational pull which act as cumulative tractive forces in the horizontal plane of the oceans. Although these components are also tiny, they are crucially cumulative over the vast surface of Earth’s oceans, and sea water is fluid and incompressible. These tractive components are present on the far side of the Earth as well as that nearest the Moon, so this model correctly predicts two tidal bulges. It also correctly predicts the shape of the bulges, which are domed or flat-topped, because along the Earth-Moon axis the horizontal components are all tending to zero. The tractive forces peak at about 45 degrees from the Earth-Moon axis, so a better visualisation is that the tidal bulges are squeezed up from the sides rather than pulled from above. Laplace’s Tidal Equations take the vertical component to be zero, and are still used today as the basis for accurate modelling and to predict the tides.
Hello One Eleven, Good presentations about the ocean tides are few and far between. I have one which is called ‘Ocean Tides Making Sense’. But it isn’t getting much attention, amongst a multitude of like-minded popular stuff. Could I ask you to take a look at it and voice your opinion. It would be greatly appreciated, as you clearly know what you are talking about.
5:30 "The left side is somewhat bigger because of how the graph is curving...let's compute it's first and second derivatives" WHOA NOW baby, I'm just not ready for that kind of commitment
This video is not correct in it's explanation of tidal forces. The difference in forces between the rear of the Earth and the front facing the moon is negligible and does not cause the tidal effects we see. This can easily be seen because lakes do not experience tides yet according to this explanation they should. The reason for tidal forces, in general, is the difference in the direction of the force of the Moon. Along the line of the Moon and Earth center the direction of the force is aligned with that line. However on all other points, the direction of the force towards the moon's center of gravity is actually pointing at an angle. If you visualize the two points on Earth's surface that are perpendicular to the Earth-moon-center line, the part of the force pulls them down. This creates pressure from the top/bottom (on a 2d Earth at least) which causes water to flow closer to the middle. There is a wiki image here upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/08/Field_tidal.svg The actual forces are tiny but the directions are exactly as depicted. The seemingly inward pull of water from the top/bottom of that diagram is what causes the tides. Lakes do not experience similar tides because they are not directly connected to oceans, which basically the pressure from the flowing water from the top/bottom of the earth doesn't reach them.
The video focuses on what generates tidal forces, and less on how tidal forces cause tides. The reason for tidal forces is not just differences in direction, but differences in gravity field in general. You can see in the diagram you included (and also in the video) that the tidal forces are stronest on the line connecting the Earth with the moon, i.e., it's actually the differences in magnitude and not difference in direction that explain the tidal forces at their strongest points. The lake you mentioned will, at some point, reach the top/bottom of the diagram and be subject to the inward pull, but this too will not cause tide effects in this lake. You need a vast body to see tide effects regardless of which point in the diagram they're in. One thing is true and I regret not mentioning more explicitly it in the video, is that bodies of water are mostly subject to tangential forces (e.g., like the one in the diagram between the top and the left side), though this is briefly implicitly mentioned at 8:06. As far as I know the solid parts of the Earth are actually more influenced by the radial parts (i.e., top/bottom and left/right).
I don’t think I understood the fictitious force at all :/ if the camera has the same acceleration as the earth, why do we apply a fictitious force on the earth?
That’s the exact situation which necessitates the introduction of a fictitious force. By switching to a reference system which is apparently standing still, there would be no reason for the masses in it to start moving. You can only make that work if you introduce said fictitious forces (which really are a measure for the mass effects you lost, switching to this reference frame).
The problem is that there is no such thing as centrifugal force. How then do you explain the effect that you attribute to it using something that is real?
The centrifugal force is a fictitious force added in a frame of reference where the viewer is accelerating, to compensate for this acceleration. So we can either explain things in an inertial frame where there are no fictitious forces, or in an accelerating one. The video shows both.
@@udiprod Hello Udiprod, How are you? It’s really good to see you’re still willing to engage with your audience, and correct there misconceptions. Well done. There is one thing however, that I’d like to bring to your attention, since someone just referenced your video to me, and asked for my humble opinion! And, this isn’t a criticism, because the reply you just gave was very accurate…but, here’s the thing: An inertial frame of reference is either at “rest” or is moving in a straight line at a constant velocity. It doesn’t include any “accelerations” or accelerated motion, so therefore shouldn’t include any “fictitious” forces, and not only does that include the centrifugal force, it unfortunately, means it shouldn’t include “gravity” either, because gravity is all about accelerated motion. The earth-moon system is, and always will be, a non-inertial reference frame. It would be nice to gain your approval for my endeavours, since I’ve been trying to explain the errors in most tidal explanations for sometime now. Take care.
@@wavydaveyparker You are right. But there's no need to introduce relativistic ideas into explaining tidal forces, because classical physics can explain them well enough. So it makes the explanation simpler to understand. I think it's common practice to use classical physics whenever it's enough to explain something.
@@udiprod Thanks, but I wasn’t really introducing any relativistic ideas, I’m just trying to counter the numerous foolish “videos” and comments like the one you’ve just received. They said it wasn’t “real” and you tried to explain that it’s “fictitious” …etc. Now, if they are as misinformed, as I suspect they are? Then, there next comment will be, “Ah, fictitious means fake, therefore it doesn’t exist!” … So, all I’m saying is, “Gravity is also a fictitious force.” And even Newton himself would tell us, that Inertia and Gravity are the exact same thing! Take care, I’ll have a look at your latest creation now, which appears to be introducing the idea of “tensors” in tidal forces, fascinating! Good luck.

So, as for the two bulges, the bulge closer to the attractor is caused by its gravity, and the other bulge is an outward stretch from centrifugal force (i.e. inertia against circular movement)?
sort of its more the earth moving away from the beads on the other side, the earth is moving away I think?
What's the reason you don't speak the videos on your own?
In early stages of production I recorded my own voice, but I don't like it so much. I do start thinking now I should work on my narration skills and try one out sometime, see how it is received.
Unfortunately hardly anything you say here about the Earth’s tides is correct, and this certainly isn’t the way to visualise them. You perpetuate a widely held misconception that the vertical/axial gravitational component is responsible for raising the tides when it isn’t. This component is tiny, about one ten millionth of a ‘g’, and the oceans are too shallow for this to accumulate any effect. If it were the dominant force there would only be one high tide a day because there would only be one tidal bulge, in effect a Roche Lobe such as is found in accreting binary star systems. There is no way that the vertical/axial model can account for the second tidal bulge, and all attempts to force it to do so, such as your swapping of reference frames, are grotesque distortions of Physics.
The true source of the Earth’s tides was discovered by Euler and mathematically modelled by Laplace in his eponymous Tidal Equations. The tides are raised by the horizontal components of the Moon’s gravitational pull which act as cumulative tractive forces in the horizontal plane of the oceans. Although these components are also tiny, they are crucially cumulative over the vast surface of Earth’s oceans, and sea water is fluid and incompressible. These tractive components are present on the far side of the Earth as well as that nearest the Moon, so this model correctly predicts two tidal bulges. It also correctly predicts the shape of the bulges, which are domed or flat-topped, because along the Earth-Moon axis the horizontal components are all tending to zero. The tractive forces peak at about 45 degrees from the Earth-Moon axis, so a better visualisation is that the tidal bulges are squeezed up from the sides rather than pulled from above.
Laplace’s Tidal Equations take the vertical component to be zero, and are still used today as the basis for accurate modelling and to predict the tides.
Hello One Eleven,
Good presentations about the ocean tides are few and far between. I have one which is called ‘Ocean Tides Making Sense’. But it isn’t getting much attention, amongst a multitude of like-minded popular stuff. Could I ask you to take a look at it and voice your opinion. It would be greatly appreciated, as you clearly know what you are talking about.
5:30 "The left side is somewhat bigger because of how the graph is curving...let's compute it's first and second derivatives"
WHOA NOW baby, I'm just not ready for that kind of commitment
This was great! When will you add the moon? I was hoping that it was added again near the end, but it just ended with the earth and sun.
Thanks! What do you mean? There's a segment about the moon at 7:30.
This video is not correct in it's explanation of tidal forces. The difference in forces between the rear of the Earth and the front facing the moon is negligible and does not cause the tidal effects we see.
This can easily be seen because lakes do not experience tides yet according to this explanation they should.
The reason for tidal forces, in general, is the difference in the direction of the force of the Moon. Along the line of the Moon and Earth center the direction of the force is aligned with that line. However on all other points, the direction of the force towards the moon's center of gravity is actually pointing at an angle. If you visualize the two points on Earth's surface that are perpendicular to the Earth-moon-center line, the part of the force pulls them down. This creates pressure from the top/bottom (on a 2d Earth at least) which causes water to flow closer to the middle. There is a wiki image here upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/08/Field_tidal.svg
The actual forces are tiny but the directions are exactly as depicted. The seemingly inward pull of water from the top/bottom of that diagram is what causes the tides.
Lakes do not experience similar tides because they are not directly connected to oceans, which basically the pressure from the flowing water from the top/bottom of the earth doesn't reach them.
The video focuses on what generates tidal forces, and less on how tidal forces cause tides.
The reason for tidal forces is not just differences in direction, but differences in gravity field in general. You can see in the diagram you included (and also in the video) that the tidal forces are stronest on the line connecting the Earth with the moon, i.e., it's actually the differences in magnitude and not difference in direction that explain the tidal forces at their strongest points.
The lake you mentioned will, at some point, reach the top/bottom of the diagram and be subject to the inward pull, but this too will not cause tide effects in this lake. You need a vast body to see tide effects regardless of which point in the diagram they're in.
One thing is true and I regret not mentioning more explicitly it in the video, is that bodies of water are mostly subject to tangential forces (e.g., like the one in the diagram between the top and the left side), though this is briefly implicitly mentioned at 8:06. As far as I know the solid parts of the Earth are actually more influenced by the radial parts (i.e., top/bottom and left/right).
great video
so why it inst happening with our orbital probes? is cuz the structure?
I don’t think I understood the fictitious force at all :/ if the camera has the same acceleration as the earth, why do we apply a fictitious force on the earth?
That’s the exact situation which necessitates the introduction of a fictitious force. By switching to a reference system which is apparently standing still, there would be no reason for the masses in it to start moving. You can only make that work if you introduce said fictitious forces (which really are a measure for the mass effects you lost, switching to this reference frame).
Love your videos!
He predicted the _Worldwide_ Coronavirus with that Coronavirus looking Earth!
Ohhh u're back on UA-cam !!! Ohoaaaaa
so what happened when you were gone
Great Video.
The problem is that there is no such thing as centrifugal force. How then do you explain the effect that you attribute to it using something that is real?
The centrifugal force is a fictitious force added in a frame of reference where the viewer is accelerating, to compensate for this acceleration. So we can either explain things in an inertial frame where there are no fictitious forces, or in an accelerating one. The video shows both.
@@udiprod Hello Udiprod, How are you? It’s really good to see you’re still willing to engage with your audience, and correct there misconceptions. Well done. There is one thing however, that I’d like to bring to your attention, since someone just referenced your video to me, and asked for my humble opinion! And, this isn’t a criticism, because the reply you just gave was very accurate…but, here’s the thing:
An inertial frame of reference is either at “rest” or is moving in a straight line at a constant velocity. It doesn’t include any “accelerations” or accelerated motion, so therefore shouldn’t include any “fictitious” forces, and not only does that include the centrifugal force, it unfortunately, means it shouldn’t include “gravity” either, because gravity is all about accelerated motion. The earth-moon system is, and always will be, a non-inertial reference frame. It would be nice to gain your approval for my endeavours, since I’ve been trying to explain the errors in most tidal explanations for sometime now. Take care.
@@wavydaveyparker You are right. But there's no need to introduce relativistic ideas into explaining tidal forces, because classical physics can explain them well enough. So it makes the explanation simpler to understand. I think it's common practice to use classical physics whenever it's enough to explain something.
@@udiprod Thanks, but I wasn’t really introducing any relativistic ideas, I’m just trying to counter the numerous foolish “videos” and comments like the one you’ve just received. They said it wasn’t “real” and you tried to explain that it’s “fictitious” …etc. Now, if they are as misinformed, as I suspect they are? Then, there next comment will be, “Ah, fictitious means fake, therefore it doesn’t exist!” … So, all I’m saying is, “Gravity is also a fictitious force.” And even Newton himself would tell us, that Inertia and Gravity are the exact same thing! Take care, I’ll have a look at your latest creation now, which appears to be introducing the idea of “tensors” in tidal forces, fascinating! Good luck.
