The algorithm has brought you and I together, and though the reflection video is the only one I've watched, I'm anticipating a banger of a binge for the remaining 33 videos here. I love being disappointed so I'll set really high expectations, that way if your channel meets those expectations, I can still be disappointed by not being disappointed by the unmet expectations. It's a lose-lose, so for me it's already a. Goddamned win-win. Great...
This really helped combine some other explanations I've seen which finally got a lot of it to click - plus adding some new info. Greatly appreciate it!
@@SomethingAbtScience show the new photon with the same wavelength is the result of the constructive interference? If so what is the range of the previous wavelengths?
MEN I am afraid to express how this video is good because i think that you will be bad after this and you will stop to question the quality of the video, and it’s scope. this is absolutely good, I look at almost all video about this and especially science asylum, I understand but now this is like a nectar of information
Cool video and really gave me a really much more comprehensive understanding of this topic. Love your channel so far and I think it would really help your channel if you worked on your audio mastering a bitt your voice is extremely quiet and the level varies by a lot
I'm Brazilian, and i like the entire video, but as a Brazilian i know the most people in my country don't understand English, please make a IA dubbing in Portuguese for my country. Nice job bro!
i know this is considering semi classical interpretation but in QFT neither the electric not the magnetic field is fundamental, that is it doesnt exist, all there is is the electromagnetic field. interactions merely look like electric or magnetic effects to us dependent on our frame of reference/speed. light therefore isnt some combination of electric or magnetic field, its a wave in a electromagnetic field. this is obvious when you consider that photons do not have any self interaction, therefore quite a bit of the explaining there wasnt accurate.
@@sudazima I definitely should have clarified that that this is a classical explanation and that the magnetic field is not a fundamental force, but rather an electric field observed from a moving frame of reference. But I don't think using the classical interpretation to explain reflection is misleading in any way. I learned about the classical definition of light way before I understood special relativity, and that's how it should be.
awesome video, very good to avoid misconceptions and i love your humor. just wanted to note that i noticed that the movement of the electron at 04:00 is wrong. since the vectors show the acceleration the movement would show the double-integral of a sin-wave: a -sin wave or a sin with π or 180° phase shift. just wanted to add that since everything else seemed so perfekt :)
So I have thought about how light is re emitted and not reflected in metals. But when it comes to water or glass the most I could find with googling was that its due to the boundary layer between the two materials air - glass - water causing a refractive effect. So the part you have with the surface glass atoms vibrating is a bit interesting. Would the glass vibration be measurable with a small enough piece of glass?
Do a video about how wavelength information is communicated to the prism to know what direction the light should travel in. Is that information at the leading edge of a light wave, or does the prism somehow see the wavelength coming and direct it?
my brains still too smooth to understand the change in direction. But basically your other point was its deconstructed and then reconstructed into light again?
I asked myself the same question making this video. Apparently, the photon’s behavior is wave-like, even when it’s just one photon. It behaves probabilistically, and its behavior aligns with constructive interference of paths near the classical trajectory, leading to the reflection law we observe macroscopically.
"i've been practicing this motion a lot" lmao
Awesome video, excited for the next one!
This channel has potential!
Absolutely!
A new video just in time for Christmas 👍
Holy cows!🐄🐄🐄 Thank you! Merry Christmas
Absolutely brilliant video mate. keep up the good work and dry humour

Wow, thanks! It's such a great feeling to have something click.
So basically the photon gets absorbed and it’s energy is used to recreate a new photon with the same wavelength?
Exactly!
@@SomethingAbtSciencebut thst still technically is a change in direction? Or can be described that way?
@@SomethingAbtScience show the new photon with the same wavelength is the result of the constructive interference? If so what is the range of the previous wavelengths?
You explain things with better context than any teacher/professor i've seen. Good shit man
Fantastic! Great teacher who explains it in their own great way, excellent job man! looking forward to more
Thanks!

So good watching young and based people beautifully explaining things.
You got my subscription in the first 2 minutes
Very good structured content, my only advice would be working on audio quality. Keeping audio congruent would earn my subscription!
I finally understand why light appears to slow down in a substance
Here before 50k subs :) glad to see some new science communicators
Great video. Very informative and entertaining. Can’t wait to see more.
This was very well explained. Great job!
I just glanced at this and saw “luigi can’t change direction.” I don’t think I’m okay

Very well said! You explain things very simply and concisely, I could learn that from you 😵💫 great video!
I can't tell whether this is an actual explanation of something interesting I have never heard of before, or satire
u deserve wayyyyy more subs
Nice video but why do you pronounce acceleration without the /k/ sound
I just don't know how to speak properly. I must have some British in me (metaphorically speaking)
@ i thought it was something deep like a different pronounciation or smthn 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
2:59 when the bathroom starts glowing 💀
BTW, thanks and Merry Christmas 🎄
You're very welcome. Thank YOU for the drug money😀and for watching. According to my UA-cam analytics, you're my biggest fan!
@SomethingAbtScience
Haha, hilarious:-) Merry Christmas and happy New Year 👍

mega high quality content! Thanks for the explanation, I'm surprised I never questioned why and how reflections works!
very good video but it's destructive interference not deconstructive
Nice video! Keep up the good work!
Dope video, your audio is slightly low. At least on my phone
Shit. Thanks for letting me know!
Another banger🔥
Super funny and really informative. I like your skits. You should keep making videos
Thanks! I'm glad you think so.
Good video. Should have mentioned Fermat's Principle at the end though. I think it would tie the video together nicely.
Good call!
The ending was the best 👌
Do a video about how wavelength information is communicated to the prism to know what direction the light should travel in. Is that information at the leading edge of a light wave, or does the prism somehow see the wavelength coming and direct it?
Man this vídeo was *really* good
Aluminum is spelled Aluminium most everywhere but the US and Canada and thus pronounced differently.
ahh really loved the video, I had this question from few months but was really lazy to find the cause for it. THANK YOU!!
That's great to hear! You're welcome.
I must say thank you very much you explained it very well
Fuck yeah this is top tier content
Very well done 👍🏼
Thank you 👍
my brains still too smooth to understand the change in direction. But basically your other point was its deconstructed and then reconstructed into light again?
finally new video 🔥
Illiterate viewers represent :) Outstanding explanation, thank you
Huh. It’s 3:30 AM, and here I am learning something.
Thank you sir
Holy banger dude
Wait so… mirrors have lag?
A wee bit, yeah mate
@@SomethingAbtScience That's awesome! Thank you for the explanation, loved it!
Here before you get famous
OK, so then how does a single photon reflect the surface?
I asked myself the same question making this video. Apparently, the photon’s behavior is wave-like, even when it’s just one photon. It behaves probabilistically, and its behavior aligns with constructive interference of paths near the classical trajectory, leading to the reflection law we observe macroscopically.
Thanks for the video, electrons rule.

great
Brilliant 👍👽
At some point you might have to admit that you know some stuff. :). Cool video.
Fascinating!
You sound like a younger JerryRigEverything
the explanation for why light slows down in a medium is false but otherwise decent video
enter the chat: Paraxial light beams....
6:08 "186000 MILES per second"
ur using miles and the brits are the illiterate, lol
im gay HELP!
