The magnus effect is used in most ball sports; baseball pitch, volleyball spike/serve, European handball, table tennis, tennis, etc. Alot of these sports or rather techniques used in them is centred completely around the magnus effect via putting spin on the ball. Even games you play in high school such as dodgeball can take advantage of the effect.
Every school kid should have a science teacher like Mr. Yeany! Maybe then, more kids would spend their time building and testing science projects, rather than sitting in their rooms with their faces buried in their smart/not smart phones. PERIOD!
That's really fun! Two straight sticks as wide as possible for the ball should create plenty of overrotation, and thus the most spin / best curve possible 🙂
Nicely done. Really grateful for the blue striping to help see the ball in motion. The high speed camera was really useful here too! Like always, I will be stealing this and incorporating it into my class instruction. Odds are huge you have taught more science teachers how to do hands on experiments than any college professor - but it would still be good if you were tied with a few, but I am not holding my breath for it. Thanks for sharing and helping us all.
I will be doing that lesson tomorrow, so if he does, I will have to compare notes and see how this pupil compares to the master! I hope to get somewhat close, but Mr. Yeany is near demigod in my book for how to teach science.
The plastic balls just bounce off, no damage However, at times the kids did think they made good targets, after a few accidental (likely intentional) hits we had ask them not to throw in that direction
I used to throw marbles with a pipe with a movement like this. It's so powerful it could probably kill. I even practiced shooting it and it would sometimes put holes in plywood. It can reach about 100m-250m but accuracy is very low since it still spins and curved sometimes, even though it's small and heavy. But accuracy is good enough in about 20m range. It is one of the most dangerous things I've done and came up with as a kid. Marbles would sometime just shatter on impact.
Many years ago there were mass produced devices that did this. Unless he was the inventor, devices for this effect have already been made. I played with them all the time.
they do, I was wondering is the jai alai balls curve at at all when thrown. When we were kids we had the paddles made out of bamboo and used a whiffle ball that would would really curve, probably planted the seed for this idea
I think a prong carefully matched for the diameter of the ball could send a ball flying in one direct for the person to be able to catch in the other direction, like a right handed person propelled a ball leftwards, as hard they could, I reckon they could catch it on their right side. There might be other factors that could help but a little bit of wind assistance would help a great deal tho and maybe being a Jai alai player would help.
There do exist ships and aircraft that use the Magnus effect for propulsion and lift, respectively. In these instances, they're known as Flettner rotors.
Excellent video...Is the Magnus effect the reason for swing balls in cricket? Also would like to know what kind of effect does shining the cricket ball just on one side create? Does differential sides in a projectile (cricket ball) create more pronounced Magnus effect (swing)?
I didn't add it to this video but thought about doing one on this, the Magnus effect and the knuckle ball, one with no spin, however we need a better camera to capture it. We have played around with the design similar to that of the cricket ball, smooth on half of it and rough on the other half, in this case the rough side has more friction as it passes through the air, the greater friction against the air pushes it towards the smoother side. My understanding is that this is not considered an example of the Magnus Effect. However, if the ball is thrown with a spin around the correct axis, the ball can curve due to the rough side friction and the Magnus Effect at the same time, with a sideways and upwards movement. I believe that if a baseball is oriented correctly, it can also curve in the same manner as the cricket ball.
rim speed (attached-detaching or tesla-friction) rotary ball slinger, should spin really fast or not at all, depending if its rolling against a outer shell or just being attached to the rim not moving, or anything between
As far as I can tell, all he retired from was the less fun parts of the job, like grading tests. Which is 110% deserved, and pretty much the ideal retirement for anyone who loves sharing their passion with kids.
When I had middle school students investigate this, we combined using throwing balls with the cup flyers and the Flettner rotor. Changing the mass was easy, as was the surface texture. Changing the amount the surface area had to keep the same mass, air speed (measured with an anemometer) in some cases was simply firing into a wind or changing the nozzle distance away from the rotor, also changed the Flettner rotor spin rate. We could change the spin rate on throwing the balls by how smooth the paddles were, adding rubber to the paddle increased the friction the most, and smooth PVC pipe had the least. Students also made sling shot type of contraptions to throw the ball without spin.
Bernoulli’s effect is about how the air moves around an object, and the magnus effect is about how an object’s spin changes it’s path through the air. You’re right. Each side has a different pressure. One side is moving forward, and the other moves backward. This means that one side is pushing harder against the air and creating more pressure.
@@thatlumberjack oooh so the preesure difference shold be the reason there is this deviation or lift . ah i usually see this in golf balls. the small depresions in the golf balls are also made for the same reason. mr david my only doubt is how is that small depresions ro rough surface will increase this magnus effect? sorry to bother you but how does that deprssion creates more magnus effect? and thanks for clarifying me .
What happens if you build the slinging arm extension Brachistochronical instead of straight? Will it have more spin? Or will it fly faster? Or both? Or no difference?
Good question, I don't have an answer for you, perhaps someone else will, one factor we did test was that does affect the speed would be the length of the basket. Up to a certain length, making it too long then becomes harder to control and swing.
yes, Bernoulli's principle also applies. The side spinning forward pushes air at a faster rate (lower pressure) the side spinning backwards (higher pressure).
Education combined with play is always the best way to interact, so happy you do what you do!
This is great! Lots of potential for different games trying to hit targets around corners. Easy for kids to have fun and learn at the same time.

Hi, this guy is a legend
I did this with marbles back when I was a kid. It's very dangerous...
your not a sigma male any more
I wish I had a teacher like you when I was in school.
I love learning and doing, but hate paperwork and bureaucracy (and spelling!)

Yeah now teachers are too busy indoctrinating kids with political and social nonsense. This teacher actually teaching is refreshing.
@@Z-Ack ...and look at you now, a true spelling bee champion and s#&t. You go my man.
No cap
Very nice in India we have no practical teacher you as a teacher is a gift from God
India selects its professional on the basis of Caste Reservation, and not purely merit and abilities.
The best teacher's are the one's that clearly love what they do. He clearly loves teaching and I wish I had a teacher with this much enthusiasm when I was in school!
I wish i had you as a teacher back in the day. You still have the spark in your eye.
This teacher is epic,a different breed from my teacher who just tells us to copy words on the screen and then give us a hard quiz after it.
These type of teachers are the ones who inspired students.
Thank you so much for your videos, Mr. Yeany, they're so helpful!!! Science is awesome. Much love from Slovakia❤❤❤
thank you, glad to hear from Slovakia
4:45 Thank you for this diagram, this is what helped me fully grasp the effects at play here.
When I was a kid in the 80's, we had a similar toy called track ball. Tons of fun.
The world needs more teachers like him great job
We need more teachers like this guy
Thanks to his youtube channel you can bet we do! His sharing has elevated all of us and inspired more!

Wow! That's a nice spin!
Such wholesome content
Never had a teacher like this
Pro Baseball be like
"I dont need that, all i need are my hands"
That's my man! I love this dude's demos. Long time no see.
Finally .. the algorithm has brought me something educational.
Bruce Lemmy. The rock n roll of science! Long live Bruce! 😎👍
Nice job Bruce!😄
Excellent explanation!!
My brothers and I had these growing up. They were so much fun. I wonder if Walmart still sells something similar to what we had 20+ years ago.
Great video as always.
Great video! Very informative. Can't wait to make one for my kids! Thank you!
Its great when kids are outside like that… playing and learning. Being interested in the real world.
Those are cool. I had a set 40 years ago. They're called Trac-ball.
What a lovely teacher ❤️
That's really fun!

Thank you, while these videos are for anyone that enjoys science, my hopes have always been for other teachers to find these videos useful.
It is crazy! Very crazy effect!
Investigate the dynamics of a Frisbee.
I will be doing that lesson tomorrow, so if he does, I will have to compare notes and see how this pupil compares to the master! I hope to get somewhat close, but Mr. Yeany is near demigod in my book for how to teach science.
Was going to say how about the dynamics of boomerang.
I thought you were going to throw that first ball through the window
The plastic balls just bounce off, no damage However, at times the kids did think they made good targets, after a few accidental (likely intentional) hits we had ask them not to throw in that direction
That’s badass !!
I use to play baseball with the Mets and pitching was fun throwing curve ball
Bruce you are the best
The king is back !
Thanks Bruce
bruce yeany is the man!
Boy I miss Track Ball, that was a great outdoor game!

@@benderrodriquez And this is why Bruce Yeany is the master!
I always like fun with science
BB guns have a little friction part in the barrel that puts a spin on it to keep altitude longer. They called it hopup.
You can put an eye out with one of those things! (LOL)
Well done.
Reminded me of those Toobees or flying soda cans you can make by cutting the ends off and the length somewhat, how they curve when tossed with a spin.
Long life to Mr. Yeany
There was a like 80s yard game that used this effect.
A Hop-Up-System uses this effect for the small round plastic bullets in soft-air-guns.

1:00 jealous of that classroom
I imagine them catching it and throwing it to make a perfect circle
Bruce on the loose!
Should do one on pool. 🎱🎳 or bowling
5:53 very interesting part this. Could multiple bottles create more speed?
Retired, but not so much... Still amazing students.

What happen if we use different size objects instead of round ball. 🤔
Can we try it to tennis balls....??
is magnus effect similar to bernaouli's effect?
iam able to feel that the ball creates pressure differneces in the sides?
am i correct?
Don't forget Venturi - he is in the mix too.

sorry to bother you but how does that deprssion creates more magnus effect?

You can spin the ball with your fingers while throwing
0:16 . . . Could have been the first time in history for a 'retired' teacher to put a window through at a school with a ball !! LOL
Now I must try to mount thing like this to the arm of my Onager catapult
Same deal in cricket with many different forms of spin bowling and also ten pin bowling, and other sports
Best part about this is getting those kids off their smartphones and having fun with science.
Oddly, how many nerdy kids watched this video on their smart phone? Oh the paradox!
What if you put spider tack on the rails?
Is it useful in general life

Remembering wanted movie scene. Bullet travelling on curve
I hope india to implement this way of teaching
Brilliant
Great 👌
Girl: Like that or like that?
He: Yass! Like that!
Will this phenomenon work on egg shape ball or something like oval shaped object ‽
good question, never tried it but I will.
Trackball is an alternative if you don't feel like building anything.
Does this also explain the Bernoulli effect?... 🧐
yes, Bernoulli's principle also applies. The side spinning forward pushes air at a faster rate (lower pressure) the side spinning backwards (higher pressure).
What if you motorized the plastic bottle on the car, would it still move forward?
It is motorized. If it wasn’t it wouldn’t move or would hardly move depending on where the blowing was taking place.
