I’d wish i could be ao passionated about something, work with it trough my entire carrer, then retire and keep loving as teacher bruce shows us...thats definetly the lesson he’s teaching us!
Bruce! You have my absolute favorite car! Love the 77-90 wagons so much. I usally watch your videos for their fun, practical, very buildable demonstrations. But at the same time, seeing my favorite ride is a real treat.
Great video sir and beautiful wagon in the background; my 74 Pontiac Grand Ville had those same wheels. 455 CI under the hood and an unbreakable drive train. What a machine!
I would love to see it. I've had this wagon about 8 years, it was a good find from an elderly gentleman that took really good care of it. I love the Pontiac wheels
I like this guy, what I like most is that I’m willing to bet he bought that old early 80’s wood panel wagon brand new and he’s kept it up in mint condition!
Bruce, you are awesome. I always have a big smile watching and learning. and now,,,, supersize.. where were you when I was in school... Love the Wagon!!!
I think another very interesting thing to mention is that both balls reach that same height in the air once they leave the tracks despite the different velocities/paths when they were on the track. It's another way of showing they have the same energy.
Depending on the class of bowling ball, it may either float or sink. Bowling balls are very close to 1 g/cm^3 in density. The heavier class of bowling balls are denser than water. Just about all bowling balls would float in extremely salty water like the dead sea. It's surprising to see this, because you might initially expect a bowling ball to be twice or three times the density of water, since it is known for being a heavy ball.
Great video. Also they land in the same spot in terms of horizontal distance away from the ramps. In other words they travel the same distance horizontally since they eject with same horizontal speed.
As I recall from a physics class long ago, a ramp of parabolic shape will convert the maximum potential energy into kinetic. Your low ramp is fairly close to a parabola. Enjoyed the demo.
Would be awesome to see an actual brachistachrome next to this. If you don't know what it is, there are some great videos here on UA-cam (eg. vsauce) . Basically it is the fastest possible way for this ball to reach the end of the track.
Another excellent video I learn something new every time. Could you do a demonstration with a bell syphon and explain how it actually works in order to syphon water ?
If I am not mistaken, these "high low tracks" does not change PE or KE as evidenced at 6:32 both balls land at the exact distance away from the track. The time difference is due to the track's length and how PE was converted more into motion.
nice '77 or '78 Caprice Classic Station Wagon you have. We had one that looked exactly like this as I was growing up, Ours was diesel and definitely you could hear the clickety clack of the engine. good times!!!
Love to see your videos. It would be a nice addition if the ending points had the same slope, so you could compare the landing sites. :-D Best wishes! Søren (Denmark)
I thought the short distance ball would win because the longer distance ball power gained in going down would be cancelled out by the distance back up again. Gravity is the overwhelming down/up power that forces the longer distance track ball to go faster. I never thought of gravity as having that kind of power. Great demonstration. Thanks.
2:58 we can see the bowling ball has enough angular momentum to continue spinning in the water Probably because it's heavy so it has way more angular momentum than a basketball would. The basketball would stop spinning quite fast due to the interaction with water
The last portion of both tracks could be the same, so we would see that given the same end speed, and the same angle of ejection, both balls follow the exact same fall trajectory. The effect would be more interesting in the 6:22 test. Still, these tracks are gorgeous ^^ .
Interesting. It looks like there’s a slight loss of momentum due to the sharp angle changes. I bet if it was a smoother transition from one plane to the next, the ball on the curvy track might fly higher and allow the other one to catch up in mid-air. Possibly giving you simultaneously splashes. Good video
That station wagon in the back there is flippin' mint! I found myself staring at that beaut more than I was actually paying attention to the video...
I was thinking the same thing lol
Amen to that!
Pontiac
So glad you said that-I was doing the same! Is it a Pontiac? 1986?
@@emfyates I think that would be an Olds Custom Cruiser
I forgot that bowling balls float
I just learned something new
Hi I’m a fan
why do they float ?
Shouldn't they not?!
@@WoogTV yea.
Man, XXL marble. Insane. Love this video. Anyway, nice car in background
Definitely a classic :)
MegaPolar666 that car reminds me of the show “married with children”
I thought the same thing! And the garage he has is awesome.
Todd D i wish my name was todd d. My nickname would be Trip-D or D-trippy
Station wagons are my favorite things, cus the're made from wood pannaling wood pannaling!
Your dedication to education is just incredible! Much appreciated!
I’d wish i could be ao passionated about something, work with it trough my entire carrer, then retire and keep loving as teacher bruce shows us...thats definetly the lesson he’s teaching us!
Wow wow wow! Bowling balls float!!!! You learn something new every day.
These are inflatable bowling balls...
@@feedforapple8979 just like the weights on the end of cartoon barbells.😁
Interesting video! Loved the dog that curiously walked over to the pool with the bowling balls.
it's her pool, she didn't quite understand why I was dropping bowling balls into it
Bruce! You have my absolute favorite car! Love the 77-90 wagons so much. I usally watch your videos for their fun, practical, very buildable demonstrations. But at the same time, seeing my favorite ride is a real treat.
I've always loved the old wagons myself, this on is a Pontiac Grand Safari, all original,
As a physics/engineering teacher and amateur woodworker, you're an inspiration to me - keep up the good work!
imagine Wintergatan's marble machine using bowling balls
not durable enough. they'd be all chipped up in no time.
that would be so chaotic it'd be more funny than impressive
@@baneblackguard584 The solution is clear. Solid Stainless steel bowling balls!!! YES!!!
Omg I had this exact same thought.
OH.
didnt know there was someone else who shared my interest of marble music and this guy doing science
Nice work as usual. CONGRATS on the TV Appearance. It'll bring some attention that you so adequately deserve!
wow.... it's admirable you went through so much trouble to build this wooden track. Thanks for sharing!
I really enjoy your clear experiments & demonstrations! Wish we had more teachers with such passion for science 👍😀
Great video! I really like the 1978 Ford Crown Victoria station wagon. 👍
I believe it is a Pontiac Safari... but you are likely close for the year! :)
Lake Nipissing yup that’s the car.
2:58 Hector the Golden Retriever was looking at the ball in the water like "WHAT IN THE ALIEN EGGS IS GOING ON AROUND HERE?!" 😆
she was not happy that I was using her pool
I don't know if you have grandkids or any small ones nearby... but they must love you with all your inventions
Nice demo and good use of bowling balls. Glad to see you on your feet again.
P.S. The Smithsonian called. They want their Station Wagon back.
thanks, and I plan on hiding the wagon here a few more years
@@YeanyScience omg yes please it looks amazing
Great video sir and beautiful wagon in the background; my 74 Pontiac Grand Ville had those same wheels. 455 CI under the hood and an unbreakable drive train. What a machine!

Very cool experiment. Nice garage and car. 👍 And congrats on the show episode!
Thanks Tim, getting ready for the show was a lot of work but shooting for it was a lot of fun
I think your videos and teaching style are great! I love physics and I am a car nut! That Pontiac wagon is fantastic!
thanks Rob, two of my loves also, always thought the big wagons were cool, this is a 1978 grand safari, all original.
@@YeanyScience Very cool indeed! Maybe a "get to know Bruce" video with an overview someday?
Nice garage/workshop! Cool experiment---it made me think about roller coaster velocities.
What a beautifully ordered workshop....
I'm glad this channel still exists!
OMG, a wood paneled station wagon. Now I know you are a real science teacher.
I discovered this by accident and it’s the most interesting thing I’ve watched in months.
Fascinating physics! Another great video! Keep up the good work! Great rework of the old high low track!
what a lot of effort to make this demonstration, least I can say is thank you for your effort
Another nice video!, i like the way you methodically and scientifically do all your video presentations.
Marble's videos are the best! I follow you from Italy. Your experiments are interesting and so relaxing! Keep it up! Bye!
thanks Stefano, nice to hear from someone from Italy
You are superb sir . Thank you so much for giving this to students to clear our concepts
Although the experiment was interesting, LOVE the station wagon!
You're an awesome teacher! Always enjoy watching your work :)
Vintage station wagon for the win! Coolest dude on the UA-cam
LOL I should have just made the video about the car with the tracks in the background
3:28 the most understated, and subtle, evil genius laugh ever. This is how the joker laughs when he's formulating his plans.
I like this guy, what I like most is that I’m willing to bet he bought that old early 80’s wood panel wagon brand new and he’s kept it up in mint condition!
That is an absolutely beautiful station wagon. I gotta have one of my own someday
Good to see you again sir and you are in good shape
Brilliant as always. Nice demonstration!
Welcome back! Good to see You again! Gergely from Hungary
great video. i appreciate the comprehensive explanation. also beautiful wagon u got in the background. they don’t make em like that anymore
I enjoyed this more than I expected.
Hurrraayy new video of Bruce Yeany!! That`s always cool, first i hit the like button and then i watch the video!
Bruce, you are awesome. I always have a big smile watching and learning. and now,,,, supersize.. where were you when I was in school... Love the Wagon!!!

This is so cool! I can't wait to see it on the news in the summer!🦍
Mr. Yeany , the science teacher i wish i had when i was in school
That’s amazing,,,,,I never realised,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,his car is made of the same material as the garage doors.👍
LOL, I'm thinking maybe I should have done the video on the car and had the track in the background
I love it, how you made the catch-pool! Really good calculation (for the position and the amount of water!)
Uploading two vids at the same time?
I like the new lab
That wagon at 1:46!! You were super cool b4 that wagon, now you're EPIC.
Great video. Also they land in the same spot in terms of horizontal distance away from the ramps. In other words they travel the same distance horizontally since they eject with same horizontal speed.
Love your videos soo much
Wish to see more
As I recall from a physics class long ago, a ramp of parabolic shape will convert the maximum potential energy into kinetic. Your low ramp is fairly close to a parabola. Enjoyed the demo.
I was happy enough to get it into this shape
Would be awesome to see an actual brachistachrome next to this.

78, I had a caprice classic for several years until it got hit. this is the same model only it's the Pontiac version, grand safari
Great demonstration. Now I understand much better. THK
Love to see your videos. It would be a nice addition if the ending points had the same slope, so you could compare the landing sites. :-D Best wishes! Søren (Denmark)
The last portion does have the same slope if you watch the very last time he does it they land in the pool in the same spot
Nice shop! You should do some carpentry videos!
I was half expecting this to be a brachistochrone. Maybe an idea for another video? I really enjoy your content. Thanks!
Look at the landing spot!!! At different times, BUT landing at the same distance from the end of the ramp!!! AMAZING.
I thought the short distance ball would win because the longer distance ball power gained in going down would be cancelled out by the distance back up again. Gravity is the overwhelming down/up power that forces the longer distance track ball to go faster. I never thought of gravity as having that kind of power. Great demonstration. Thanks.
Nicely done . Thanks
That station wagon rocks! I want one!
Awesome work!
If the bent track was a smooth curve down then up to meet the same ending points... mindblowing!
I get it. He's actually trying to sell that sweet ride in the background. Genius salesmanship.
2:58 we can see the bowling ball has enough angular momentum to continue spinning in the water
Probably because it's heavy so it has way more angular momentum than a basketball would. The basketball would stop spinning quite fast due to the interaction with water
Cool ! Love your work.
Very cool video! Nice house too
Very cool. Surprised you didn't talk about the maximum of the ark matching and why the height was the same for both.
@ 0:12 TYCO FAST TRAXX! Right on the middle shelf in the center of the picture. I used to have the same one years ago! Miss the old toys!
good eye, it still works and drives the dog crazy
thanks for your work bruce
this helps
liked and subbed
That wood grain American made wagon is awesome
Great station wagon!!!!
For some reason when he said "ok goodbye" i expected him to say have fun storming the castle 😂
I have my giant trebuchet to protect me, ua-cam.com/video/1xPKJFdaTWA/v-deo.html
that would take a miracle
The last portion of both tracks could be the same, so we would see that given the same end speed, and the same angle of ejection, both balls follow the exact same fall trajectory. The effect would be more interesting in the 6:22 test.
Still, these tracks are gorgeous ^^ .
Great stuff. I'd love to see a tour of your shop some time.
Doggo loved the experiment !!!
I think she was happier to have her pool filled with water
I really love these kinds of videos!
Nice job Bruce !
I love your garage doors!
No way! Both at exactly the same time 😮
The nostalgia of the station wagon is also a force
good for you professor, by not forgetting about the little energy conversion into a little sound...
sounds like there is quite a bit of it there, it's louder in person, also small amount would be thermal
Wished I had these minutes back
Amazing!! Hello from Brazil!!!
Interesting. It looks like there’s a slight loss of momentum due to the sharp angle changes. I bet if it was a smoother transition from one plane to the next, the ball on the curvy track might fly higher and allow the other one to catch up in mid-air. Possibly giving you simultaneously splashes. Good video
Thats one hell of a medieval catapult you build.
Wow I love that Bonneville wagon!
That's an absolutely sweet stationwagon
The doggy is interested in physics too.
would love to see you do videos with other science channels! Like applied science and Ave
I think I'd like that too!
The real winner is that station wagon!
thanks it's a great old ride
That’s a sweet station wagon!
