Since the question has come up in the comments: for the ramp problem, we're turning friction off for the square, but back ON for the sphere, so it can roll. Yes you are all correct, it would not roll without friction! :) 9:58 - "And then WITH friction, the spherical cow is going to roll."
Would a disk really spin forever if we let it spin in perfect conditions (in space, no external influence) ? I read something about gravitational waves slowing the disk down after a very long time.
HELLO! Thanks for the great course! May I make a comment about the demo of 15:20 of weird water movement (if I understood your video correctly)? The reason water seems to move forward to the motion of the water pipe is not due to increased speed of water to maintain the same angular momentum. If that was true, then in around 16:12 where the water almost curls back to the same radius it would return to the same spot too. When water leaves the pipe, water droplets start moving in a straight line and won't continue rotating with the pipe. And where they end up in a few moments related to the nozzle makes you think they went ahead, while all of them were just moving straight. An animation would explain it more clearly! So what we see is an illusion of water moving ahead of the spin while it is not. HAVE FUN!
Dude, is this really you? I think if you plugged in the water hose somehow into an extension cord and then grabbed it...well, that would be familiar, huh?
I totally agree and honestly I think we should reproduce the experiment electrifying the water and see if the sparks follow the same direction of the water! 😄
Well you just flunked your first physics lesson. If you derive anything from this video on “momentum” and “acceleration” then you would know that the little masses of water molecules are at a certain speed at the radius they leave the pipe, pointed towards their axis of rotation. As Ms. Cowern so eloquently stated if their radius is smaller then they must travel faster to conserve that angular momentum so they actually pass the nozzle since they are traveling faster than their brethren that are closer. Which is visually elusive since our minds are wired to think that things farther away travel faster.....I could be wrong......but I’m not🥸
Electroboom apparently great minds watch the same videos. I wrote your business adress beginning with "Nat"...on 1/29/2020 at this point I don't expect you will make the video debunking grounding that I suggested. But. Would appreciate it if you acknowledged you saw it so I would not be tempted to waste effort looking for some other way to contact you. Here is an example of the comedy potential of debunking the health claims of barefoot grounders: One of the videos shows Chopra hugging an old pine tree and acting as if he can feel the free electrons healing him. The thick pine bark is dry and looks to be over a cm thick. A great insulator I suspect! Maybe a better one than shoes. Something you could confirm on video with little effort.

Well keep it up .... Will wait for the next vdo .....✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
Just a little correction: When water goes outside from the pipes and at the same time they are turning around, water will have a tangential speed to front and radial speed to the outward. Because of this reason, they will have a direction near to the front. However as it is seen in the video, they curl back. BUT! this is an illusion. Actually, they are not curled back. Just as an example let's think about not radial but the tangential speed. For a simplification we have two water particles. The first water particle will have a tangential speed when it leaves the pipe and goes forward. Then, the second water particle also goes forward but it will leave the pipe after the first one. Because pipes are turning, the second particle will leave the pipe from a further position. As the two particles just goes on a straight path, the second particle will have a path near to the front compared to first particle. As we think about all particles this way, first left particles looks behind and it seems like while the pipes are turning, water curls back. As a result, this is the reason of illusion why water just goes on a straight path but not curls back actually. And also in order to avoid from some misunderstood: The pipes that has water output to the middle works in the same way. Water particles follows straight lines and as the pipes are turning, they are seems to behave like they are approaching to front and turning outside. There is no words to explaining them with using angular momentum. It is already correct. As it is mentioned in the video, angular momentum is conserved. Also, as I mentioned here, water particles will follow the straight path and they will not curl anywhere, so it is normal that there is no reason to have change in angular momentum. So also just think about this way. Have a nice day :)
@Dj Leaf Coriolis effect is also working in a similar way. It is also an illusion, thus it is not actually a force, but as it looks like something thrown to the center is curling ahead by the point of view of the people turning around, it seems like it is a force. The same logic I wrote above is valid here. It is simply applying when the thrown is going outward, it looks curling back, when the thrown is going inward, it looks curling ahead. Also let's think about particles again, assume pipe is turning CCW and we look from the pipe to jetting direction, when the first particle goes in a straight in the way to the center, we move to our right and the particle's velocity looks go to our right slightly, but it is still in the same straight direction according to the ground. The second particle is also thrown similarly as the first one, it goes straight to center but first's velocity is on more right according to the second's. The second one is on more right according to the third one, and so on. The first is our past and the third is our present. In continuity with particles, our past looks like turning right that the side which we are approaching to.
I have a question, is this course going to continue after high school material is over or are you planning to start another course including calculus and higher-level subjects?
The “trick” with pipes and water has even more cool physics! Try to explain the curve of the water flow from the rotating frame of view - here how you come to the non-inertial reference frame and related inertial forces
It is assumed that there is enough static friction there to make the ball roll, but you are correct that if there were absolutely no friction, the ball would slide, not roll. Presumably this was not mentioned in order to concentrate on the main point of the lesson, and not get sidetracked.
I really appreciate your effort and this is exactly the kind of stimulus that youngsters need, this is going to be key for millions of young minds to step forward and pick up a STEM career.
I caught it on my third view and English _is_ my primary language! This was quite a gem. It's too creative to diminish with my own pun retort as tempting as it is. Respect!
this video was recommended to me out of nowhere. I'm a freshmen who is not even able to take physics. I'm now going to learn physics from you because I do want to take it and if I take it now I can ace it later. big brain moves.
You got me with Rodney Mullen (Yes,I am a skater),now I've been learning physics thanks to you.Sending you a virtual high five and a big thank you from Australia.Tim ♥️s Dianna.
Great explanation and the sprinkler thing is so cool, but I think that technically there is a "more" correct solution to the problem with the velocity of the sphere vs cube cow, if there is no friction in both cases then there is no force to get the sphere cow rolling, just like when you throw a bowling ball it mostly just slides, so in the end they would slide down the ramp with the same speed. I think...
Sphere vs Cube down a frictionless slope question: if there is no friction then the sphere would not rotate, so would they not both get to the bottom at the same time?
11:30 in the example illustrated it is wrong to suppose that in absence of friction the sphere will start to roll, in fact it doesn't and it will reach the bottom together with the box.
Hi Dianna, I have doubt in the sphere and cube in ramp puzzle. If the friction is considered zero(0) then there will be no rotation in sphere ryt. Correct me if I'm wrong. Then the answer for this question will be both sphere and cube will reach the bottom at the same time. It is similar to free fall.....
1:02 - "And if you guessed it would jump ahead, idk how you knew" - Well, if you're subscribed long enough.... 😉 And I love it when you ask a tricky question, then we probably all think "Ok so the obvious answer is A. so the real answer must be B. ... But why...? 🤔" - And then the real answer is far cooler then we even thought 🤩 (Although if you learnt physics you know the answer, but it's still so cool to see it gets solved 😉)
She specifies the cube has no friction, but mentions the ball has friction so that it does spin (presumably a very small amount of friction so the ball spins, but not so much that the friction alone would change the outcome)
I'm surprised to see all the rotational mechanics described without using vectors! I knew you could do it, but I always found that it starts to get messier to not use them when you start to tackle harder problems. But vectors are also a bit more unintuitive at first, especially when trying to describe rotation in a way that's similar to how people are taught linear motion, and I think you've done a really great job at bridging the two in a way that's fun, easy to digest and clear!
7:42 "which shape gives you the biggest moment of inertia" "hoop" wouldnt the thinnest possible wire moving directly out (thus putting the most mass possible as far away form the center) be the answer?
Because some of the particles windup close to the center of rotation, it actually works out to have a smaller moment of inertia overall (by 1/3 if memory serves) assuming the mass and radius are the same
That's what she was talking about: an infinitely thin hoop. But since it's hard to find one of those lying around, she used an annulus as a physical example.
Just a funny observation. If you line up all the people on earth at the equator each human would only have 5mm space to stand. And most of them would need to know how to swim. But still a very nice idea to use this to explain Angular Momentum. Keep up the good work Dianna and crew.
Hi Diana, awesome video, I only have one doubt which is the following: if the plane has no friction, how does the spherical cow start rolling? I thought rolling needed friction to happen
great lesson! moment of inertia is always a tough concept and demonstrations are such a great way to supplement the mathematical modeling! excellent work my friend! :)
Very pimp and i'm glad to see Kari Byron again, i was a fan of Mythbusters too and it's a show for everyone that i miss here, in the Spain's TV; happy new year!.
you made super cool video. I have a couple of questions to which confused me for long. 1) when did the quantity of matter (mass) come into people's mind? 2) how was it figured out ? by who? Newton or someone else? 3) I think there must be a relationship between an area of shape with some newton physics...but i can't figure out what is it....will you pls explain it a bit if you are spare? thank you
Diana, I have a question: why does a balloon filled with air burst more explosively when punctured, than a balloon filled to the same size with water? My thinking is that the elasticity of the balloon more easily compresses the thinner air (because it's a gas) than the denser water with the result that the gas pressure on the walls of the balloon are stronger than the water pressure of an equally inflated water balloon and that's why the air balloon bursts more explosively. Is that it?
If we disregard friction in the spherical vs box cow, wouldn't the spherical cow simply fall without spinning? hence both reaching the same speed and finish at the same time, after all what causes the spinning is friction in the first place, unless I'm grossly mistaken.
Good morning, Please clear the following doubt I am having since 42 years. Sound travels faster in solids than liquids or games but when we close a door why the volume of the sound from outside gets reduced instead of increasing. Second doubt: When a magnetic object is magnetized, north and south poles get separated so there should be a change in shape of the magnetized subject but it is thought that the shape doesn't change
Regarding slowing down the earth. Does it matter that the people running, and pushing against the ground? Do they counteract their own force? Wouldn't just erecting lots and lots of tall buildings slow down the earth more, like a whole bunch of Space Elevators?
I thought the water pipes turned inward was a demonstration of the coriolis effect. Should I be envisioning the coriolis effect in terms of angular momentum?
The heat of the sun's atmosphere at mercury's orbital distance pushes it away slightly more than gravity pulls it which accounts for mercury's slightly odd orbit. I figured that one out a couple decades ago. Mercury got caught a little close for its density and hasnt worked into its kush spot just yet. And being the sun's gaining mass at a way faster ratio than mercury is able to keep up with its pushing it at a measurable level.
I'm enjoying these as a refresher for my long ago physics studies. BTW, you're a much more engaging instructor than Mr. Kendrick. Question however. Having watched all these, why aren't cows a unit? Or should I take that question to the philosophy review?
Loved the video. However I think earth is more like 6x10^24 kg. Also, do pulsars really blink optically, or rather was it just the radiopulse that gave them their name?
If everyone ran around the equator they would very slightly change the speed of rotation of the earth, but when they stopped running the speed would go back to what it started at (again, due to conversation of angular momentum), right?
Hello Physics Girl I have a question maybe you would point me in the right direction . When an aircraft propeller spins on a craft called an airboat ( everglades swamp boat ) there is a centrifugal load on the prop blades . If the boat changes direction with the prop spinning and creating this centrifugal load there is a gyroscopic action where the spinning prop resists the change in direction of it's axis . What is that resistance called ??? I really would like to know,,,, please . Thanks Ed
Shouldn't the spherical cow just slide down in the absence of friction? As I understand it, the rotation is caused by the backward force from friction giving torque when combined with the forward force from gravity+inclined plane, so no friction means no torque means no rotation. Or did I miss something?
Not to be picky, but the sphere would not start rotating if there was no friction. This would then mean no difference between the two. Then again, no friction means there is essentially no way to hold back the objects on an incline plane, so the incline plane could not change the direction of the falling objects at all.
I think, perhaps, a way to understand the extra energy in the sphere rolling (versus sliding) down the slope would be to tell someone that they need to bring the sphere and the cube to the top of a cliff and then drop them off the edge, straight down. But, the catch is that the sphere must be spinning when it hits the ground. This might not seem like a big deal for the little cow sphere, but if it was a 1 ton sphere then you can bet that the person would remember having to put the extra effort into getting it spun up before dropping it.
Hi Dianna , I have a small question for you, (not related to the above video).. When you bring to near boiling temp of frozen milk in stainless steel vessel, it will give you burnt smell but won't if you do the same with milk at room temperature.. Why??
I knew it would go ahead of the curved tube because I saw Steve Mould's video about the same thing. Then Destin (Smarter Everyday) and Steve did a colab about it and filmed it on a Phantom.
The classic demonstration of angular momentum is a figure skater doing a spin - they pull their arms close to their body to speed up their rotation (which increases the number of points their routine earns)
I just watched all this, and i still dont understand why the water overtakes the spin....... but i dont do physics.... why am i watching this u might ask... Cos its addictive, Dianna is very enjoyable to listen to, despite having 1,000,000 questions about everything she says, and i like being confused lol. Subbed!
Ok. Super amazing video with a super amazing host. I just subscribed. There's a interesting caveat to this angular momentum thing and the earth's spin. Occasionally the earth's spin varies. Like, all the time actually. Very, very small changes though. In the year 2020 the earth beat it's own spin time for a day a total of 28 times. That's the most every recorded in a single year since recording started around 50 years ago or so. One more reason 2020 was just... Fill in the blank.
So; if you let the waterpipes point straight up, then the water jets will keep their angular momentum (i.e. keep the same endpart velocity as at the pipes exit holes)?🤔

Would the spherical cow even roll if there where no friction? and if so why?
Totally random question: what was the record you used to demonstrate with?
Maam what if we make a hole form north pole to South Pole and throw a ball... What will happen ??? 😅😅

Not gonna lie.. for a second, I thought she broke the Matrix with that sprinkler.
How the heck do you have so many subs without videos
Can I borrow some subs?
i still think its broken.
@@80taranjeet I'm convinced it's an inside joke they've yet to let me in on.
I love this stuff! Thanks so much for explaining it in a very easy-to-understand way....
Very pimp and i'm glad to see Kari Byron again, i was a fan of Mythbusters too and it's a show for everyone that i miss here, in the Spain's TV; happy new year!.
you made super cool video. I have a couple of questions to which confused me for long.
1) when did the quantity of matter (mass) come into people's mind?
2) how was it figured out ? by who? Newton or someone else?
3) I think there must be a relationship between an area of shape with some newton physics...but i can't figure out what is it....will you pls explain it a bit if you are spare?
thank you
Diana, I have a question: why does a balloon filled with air burst more explosively when punctured, than a balloon filled to the same size with water? My thinking is that the elasticity of the balloon more easily compresses the thinner air (because it's a gas) than the denser water with the result that the gas pressure on the walls of the balloon are stronger than the water pressure of an equally inflated water balloon and that's why the air balloon bursts more explosively. Is that it?
Thanks Diana ,you made physics fun.
If we disregard friction in the spherical vs box cow, wouldn't the spherical cow simply fall without spinning? hence both reaching the same speed and finish at the same time, after all what causes the spinning is friction in the first place, unless I'm grossly mistaken.
Good morning, Please clear the following doubt I am having since 42 years. Sound travels faster in solids than liquids or games but when we close a door why the volume of the sound from outside gets reduced instead of increasing. Second doubt: When a magnetic object is magnetized, north and south poles get separated so there should be a change in shape of the magnetized subject but it is thought that the shape doesn't change
I am a huge fan of yours! Do you ever do Q & A with your fans? How can I connect in a meaningful way with you, without taking too much of your time?
Regarding slowing down the earth. Does it matter that the people running, and pushing against the ground? Do they counteract their own force? Wouldn't just erecting lots and lots of tall buildings slow down the earth more, like a whole bunch of Space Elevators?
I thought the water pipes turned inward was a demonstration of the coriolis effect. Should I be envisioning the coriolis effect in terms of angular momentum?
The heat of the sun's atmosphere at mercury's orbital distance pushes it away slightly more than gravity pulls it which accounts for mercury's slightly odd orbit. I figured that one out a couple decades ago. Mercury got caught a little close for its density and hasnt worked into its kush spot just yet. And being the sun's gaining mass at a way faster ratio than mercury is able to keep up with its pushing it at a measurable level.
Sweetest explanation ever😍😍🤩🤩 useful for exams !!
I'm enjoying these as a refresher for my long ago physics studies. BTW, you're a much more engaging instructor than Mr. Kendrick. Question however. Having watched all these, why aren't cows a unit? Or should I take that question to the philosophy review?
Because there's no such thing as a standard cow.
Loved the video. However I think earth is more like 6x10^24 kg. Also, do pulsars really blink optically, or rather was it just the radiopulse that gave them their name?
The outfit is very true to character. Very teacher - ish
just the one video & instantly subscribed
Thankyou diana for making such great videos , really missing such content hope you will recover soon
Water is great analogy for space or energy flow
If everyone ran around the equator they would very slightly change the speed of rotation of the earth, but when they stopped running the speed would go back to what it started at (again, due to conversation of angular momentum), right?
Hello Physics Girl I have a question maybe you would point me in the right direction . When an aircraft propeller spins on a craft called an airboat ( everglades swamp boat ) there is a centrifugal load on the prop blades . If the boat changes direction with the prop spinning and creating this centrifugal load there is a gyroscopic action where the spinning prop resists the change in direction of it's axis . What is that resistance called ???
I really would like to know,,,, please . Thanks Ed
Shouldn't the spherical cow just slide down in the absence of friction? As I understand it, the rotation is caused by the backward force from friction giving torque when combined with the forward force from gravity+inclined plane, so no friction means no torque means no rotation. Or did I miss something?
Could something like an inclined air-hockey table demonstrate this? 11:10
Edit: after some search I couldn't find anyone that has done this.
Not to be picky, but the sphere would not start rotating if there was no friction. This would then mean no difference between the two. Then again, no friction means there is essentially no way to hold back the objects on an incline plane, so the incline plane could not change the direction of the falling objects at all.
why TF people just watch the video and go on ? she deserves likes for her efforts these concepts in front of us !!
I think, perhaps, a way to understand the extra energy in the sphere rolling (versus sliding) down the slope would be to tell someone that they need to bring the sphere and the cube to the top of a cliff and then drop them off the edge, straight down.
But, the catch is that the sphere must be spinning when it hits the ground.
This might not seem like a big deal for the little cow sphere, but if it was a 1 ton sphere then you can bet that the person would remember having to put the extra effort into getting it spun up before dropping it.
Well, Destin from Smarter Everyday has shown this experiment before. But it's fun to watch Dianna explaining it again.
Were you being humorous of femorous? What diff equation has a derivative of rdrrr?
Lol and I was thinking why would you expect it to do anything else?! 😆
2:30 I had to watch again to understand what she said because my brain was more curious about the spherical cow in the first attempt! 🐄
Hi Dianna , I have a small question for you, (not related to the above video).. When you bring to near boiling temp of frozen milk in stainless steel vessel, it will give you burnt smell but won't if you do the same with milk at room temperature.. Why??
Can you please do a video about foucault pendulum
1:02 maybe because it has already been done.
I knew it would go ahead of the curved tube because I saw Steve Mould's video about the same thing. Then Destin (Smarter Everyday) and Steve did a colab about it and filmed it on a Phantom.
The classic demonstration of angular momentum is a figure skater doing a spin - they pull their arms close to their body to speed up their rotation (which increases the number of points their routine earns)
How do you get everyone to run at the equator, without exerting a torque on the Earth in the opposite direction?
You don't. Watch the video again, and see where Ms. Cowern calculates the torque.
At work sat at my desk and saw the water going forward. 😯 Ok now I need to watch.
I just watched all this, and i still dont understand why the water overtakes the spin....... but i dont do physics.... why am i watching this u might ask... Cos its addictive, Dianna is very enjoyable to listen to, despite having 1,000,000 questions about everything she says, and i like being confused lol. Subbed!
8:33 that is an amazing sphere!!
I like your spin on this topic 😀
Great series Dianna! Is it common to call all electromagnetic waves 'light'?
Ok. Super amazing video with a super amazing host. I just subscribed. There's a interesting caveat to this angular momentum thing and the earth's spin. Occasionally the earth's spin varies. Like, all the time actually. Very, very small changes though. In the year 2020 the earth beat it's own spin time for a day a total of 28 times. That's the most every recorded in a single year since recording started around 50 years ago or so.
One more reason 2020 was just...
Fill in the blank.
So; if you let the waterpipes point straight up, then the water jets will keep their angular momentum (i.e. keep the same endpart velocity as at the pipes exit holes)?🤔
Ignoring air friction and fanning out, that is.
This is a excellent video 👌. Easy to understand. Thanks.
