You just turned 4 weeks of learning and 12 hours of homework into a 10 minute video. Well done this is EXTREMELY helpful to me (and probably many others)
It's only 4 weeks of education if you're mentally slow. In my country the material is covered by two courses, a physics course and a chemistry course, which run concurrently for two years, along side many other courses that also run concurrently. So it's perfectly reasonable then for one course to teach its material at a different time to the other, and let's suppose the material is taught 4 months apart. It is then not reasonable to say it's 4 months of education. The correct way is to say "it takes 2 hours of education" because each lesson is 1 hour long. Let's not exaggerate .
Sorry to say but its misconception that electron flow from one terminal of battery to other in fact they oscillate so little that their movement is negligible, its the electric field and magnetic field that carry the energy around. electrons stay in approximately the same space. electrons do not carry energy from battery to bulb its the fields. (we are taught wrong about electricity in colleges)
I am a science teacher. I struggled teaching about electricity and magnetism because I couldn't find any material that truly explained how it works in simple terms. Everything I found seemed way too confusing and overcomplicated. This is brilliant! Thanks, I will be using these videos to educate my kids. Way to go
I am a Physics teacher and I always look for easier ways to teach my students and make things clear. Thank you for this video. It is very useful. And the way the animation and the narration goes its so perfect. Am looking forward to more videos from you.
Obay Rafi same I studied applied physics for 4 years and know all the formulas by heart but none of my teachers actually explained to us wtf electricity really is.
I’ve never commented on a UA-cam video in my life. But I swear to god or whoever you believe in, I learned more about electricity in that 11 mins then I have my entire electrical apprenticeship. That was eye opening 😂😂😂😂
Actually im just 13 years old and i like to study about atoms. But no such videos were there! In your video, you explained slowly and gently, thats what makes people understand in better way! Thank you soo much whoever you are!
Gabriella KAO “the move of electrons” its hard to truly understand them without deriving the meaning and interpretation from mathematics. You can search “quantum numbers” it will help you clarify some topics, try to understand the meaning of each if the quantum numbers, do not try to translate things like the spin of an electron to classical spins in the macro world.
True, however if you TRULY want to learn the subject of electricity and magnetism you must learn vector/multivariable calculus and start reading a proper textbook on the topic.
I have never appreciated anyone that this deserve. And I also don't comment like 99 percent of the time and this video is just mind boggling. This guy gets a subscribe. The way he keeps it for beginners to grasp is just outstanding! I don't think I have seen a youtuber this much committed to explain physics. Keep posting you will be the best!
Im taking the asvab and electricity is a subtest on there. I was so hopeless because id study for hours to no avail, Never did I think an electrical video could be explained to me where I understood. THANK YOU times a million this video was genius !
I’m in esthetician school and we’re starting our electricity chapter to be able to use certain machines (high frequency, galvanic current, microcurrent, etc) and this video REALLY helps me visualize the basic concepts. Thank you!!
As a heating engineer, I would like to thank my old tech college instructor for teaching me Ohms Law - as 'Virgins Are Rare' and 'Where Virgins Are'. As a 17 year-old , it was a brilliant way to remember how to work out wattage, voltage, amps, and resistance. It's never left me, and I'm 62, now. I use it almost weekly in my job. I only came on here to refresh my memory on the name of the outermost electron cloud.
Been an electrician for a couple years now and even back in trade school I didn't quite grasp the whole picture. This video really filled in the gaps and questions I had, thank you!
It’s honestly sad that I just learned more in this 10 minute UA-cam video than I did 12 years in school. I never understood anything about atoms, protons, electrons, etc, but now it makes more sense. Great video!
Excellent during my college days I tried hard to understand electricity but never found good tutors. But this 10 minutes video gave complete details about electricity.
OMG, this is what I need, the explanation is so clear. I need more of this, could you make more videos about electricity, also an explanation about resistor, capacitor, fuse, diode, inductor, different between AC and DC, and how can a power supply convert AC to DC, also how electrical travel on the mainboard. Because I guess no one can explain something too technical except you. Please please :)
Oh my god, this video was absolutely amazing. As someone who had various misconceptions about electricity, this helped a LOT. Keep making these videos man, you're the best.
I've tried to understand electricity for a long time. You have taken a lot of the mystery out. There is still a big mystery out there to go with this crazy stuff. I learned more in that one video and I have learned in my whole life. You have a great way of explaining things. You are on your way thank you.
I have no words to describe how good this explanation was. Please, make many many videos on physics topics. You are very creative and deserve millions of subscribers.
I am 24 and sir... for the first time in my life I understand the way an atom works... leading to understand electricity. Thank you! I'll be watching the whole series
The entire semester I learned in engineering college can't even be compared to your 10 min video. You've got a great talent there to explain stuff to people. keep it up ♥♥♥

Thank you so much for this video! I’ve worked with electrical for quite a while now, and always understood the basics... but to see what’s actually going on at the molecular level is so neat!
Fantastic explanation. Clear and digestible to those who have no knowledge of this field. Best video I've found in order to begin to understand how electricity works and I especially appreciate that you created separate videos for each successive topic related to electricity so that us novices can grasp the concepts more easily.
This is an insanely good video. Incredibly well explained from the ground up. Even if you don't have prior knowledge in physics of chemistry, this video explains each concept do simply and intuitively thay you won't have trouble understanding. Just wow. Hats off to the creator.
Can't believe these odds: 20k "likes" and 400 "not liked". Goes to show how informative this YT'er is. Now every time I plug something in, I'll see nothing but electrons in my head.
I would agree with you if the video was correct but unfortunately it is far from correct and is just expressed in a false simplified analogy normally aimed at the young mind where critical and analytical thinking skills have yet to develop.
I've spentless countless hours trying to understand electricity and I never got it. I remember during my highschool exams, I studied for so long and nobody could explain how it works clearly. This video has helped my conceptually understand electricity but only 10 years too late!
I am not an electrical student or engineer but I could understand this video quite clearly. I wish our education system could create thing like this and apply in the study program for the students. We would be a better engineer. Million thanks to the one who created this.
The best thing about this video is that it teaches things in the correct order. In most of the books, they teach about electric current first and then explain charges and all the other things. However, it is quite confusing at the beginner level to imagine something you never actually get to see. The use of daily life examples helps to actually relate to what happens inside a wire when electric current flows through it even though it is not accurate. I am very helpful to the creators of this video and the team working behind it. I appreciate your hard work and would definitely suggest this to my friends.
Great video. I should have learnt this stuff years ago. Very clearly explained. It's crazy how we depend so much on electricity, yet have no idea how it works. Now I can at least tell my kids about the basics.
Thank you very much! Your videos are awesome: picture, sound, speech, explanation, subtitles. It's really sad that you stop producing. Can't wait for the next video with an explanation of what happens when electrons reach the positive terminal!

Update June 2019: Wow! So many views! And so many people having added translations! I hadn't noticed - thanks to Dimitrios for bringing it to my attention. The community contributed captions will aide this video in helping more people. Thanks to everyone who contributed! Original: This video will serve as a basis for other, electricity-related videos, such as one on VHS machines or curling irons. This one's very long compared to my other videos, for a good reason. I wanted to clearly lay down the fundamentals of electricity and its electrons before moving on to amperes, voltage, watts, ohms, et cetera. Thank you for watching :)
That's a really nice explanation. It contains an error, though, beginning about 9:39, when you say that the depicted short circuit can be dangerous because the electrons do not encounter resistance. In fact, it's the resistance of the wire that makes this dangerous as the resistance produces heat. If the wire had no resistance, then the flow of electrons would not produce heat.
@@melonachii The battery or whatever source has its own internal resistance. If it was shorted out with a very low resistant path, the battery would heat up.
God bless You dear!!!!!!!! I'm sure making that video requires some special attention and skills. and so far you've explained it faaaaaaaaar better than all my high school teachers back then. Great video!! Keep it up!
bro thank you soooo much this video made me understand the whole thing in just 10 min and i didn't understand it for the past 2 months with my teacher thank you sooo much
Please upload more! I really needed this back when I had to learn this in the most inefficient and vague way possible. The education system is outdated and your videos show this.
November 2021. Contributor Veritaseum and others have just posted, posited and peer-reviewed each other that the electrical energy that makes electrical items work is actually the Electro-magnetic field surrounding the circuit wire and created by the moving electrons. Happy for my own understanding of this new approach also to be peer-reviewed.
I never thought I would be actually interested in learning this. Idk, the school made it seem so boring. But this is awesome. That's why I love this channel: Clear and easy explanations. Great job! :D
This is the best explanation I've found yet. I've gotten by on the old water pressure/flow analogy for a while but wanted to better understand what's actually happening. "Electrons are not spent…" answered one of my most basic questions. Thank you. All right, onward…
Sorry to say but its misconception that electron flow from one terminal of battery to other in fact they oscillate so little that their movement is negligible, its the electric field and magnetic field that carry the energy around. electrons stay in approximately the same space. electrons do not carry energy from battery to bulb its the fields.

I just got an electrical apprenticeship and have been looking for electrical education videos and this was brilliant, thank you so much. Going to watch more of your videos and I hope you keep creating content!
Thank you so much. Excellent, one of the best I have ever seen and heard. You are a great communicator with a really good voice for this subject. Dr. Mark
thanks, man.. I'm 31 years old now, never understand physic in high school, and always curious about how electricity is actually work.. wish there was video like this in that time..
Why have u stopped making video even after four years this is the best explanation of electricity can u please resume making this series it's really very helpful
your voice is perfect you are a "NARRATOR" congratulations! few are! excellent! i have subscribed and will watch all your videos. you speak in a slow and poistive manner.
"We are now confident that electric and magnetic phenomena are attributable to ether, and we are perhaps justified in saying that the effects of static electricity are effects of ether under strain, and those of dynamic electricity and electromagnetism effects of ether in motion." - Nikola Tesla.
This is the mainstream teaching of electricity and it is a simplified format to be able to understand it much like a beginners guide, crucially though some very big key areas of the video are incorrect, the demonstration of electrons carrying the energy(charge) around a circuit is not correct and in fact on average the electrons will only migrate in the region of mm/hr in DC circuits, AC circuits actually sees the electrons just vibrate about their position any never really going anywhere. What is happening when you link 2 points with a potential difference (pd) with a conductor is the propagation of the elecromagnetic field (emf) at close to light speed although this speed varies depending on the conducting material, this emf around the conductor is what interacts with the valence electrons and causes them to slowly migrate from Negative to Positive in DC and about their position in AC, the actual energy travels not through the conductor but around it in the field that is created, like mentioned already this field interacts with the electrons but not really central of the conductor but around the surface of the conductor to a depth reflective of the strength of the field, this is known as the skin effect. It still amazes me mainstream education teaches us electricity flows from positive to negative (the video was correct to some extent by getting the direction of electron migration right), also this idea electrons are racing through the conductor at close to light speed is another total misconception, i realise the atomic and quantum world are much more complex than we can expect to lay on our children but at least they should be introducing them with accurate information and not misleading stuff. Regards - an electrical engineer with a passion for physics, quantum theory and the atomic world.
@@AlexandreAlvesGoogle It's easy to make analogy, think of sound, sound is not some particles traveling through air, but just a wave that propagates through air. Air is a medium through which sound travels, just like that, Electrons are a medium through which electricity travels, electrons only enable a charge to propagate in a certain direction, nothing more, electrons themselves can't move fast as light, as that would be impossible.
I would assume the reason why they teach this incorrect method is that it's easier for beginners to understand like you said. If one were to study electricity in the beginning as it actually were, then they would just get confused right off the bat. Ik I probably would be confused for a good while until I study it thoroughly
@Moses Q No, it's taught incorrectly because other sources teach it incorrectly, and the author copies their earlier teachers, never questioning any errors. It's the childhood "game of Telephone" where the errors built up over decades, and now the teachers themselves possess brains full of wrong information. They infect the next generation of K12 students with the same errors. Nobody designed such bad, erroneous material. Instead it was produced by a near-total lack of corrective feedback, which leads to process of gradual distortion, created over an entire century. Why does it happen? Simple: the publishers of K6 material have no need to remove errors. (Removing errors requires accepting their existence, and THAT must never happen! For large publishing companies, any admission of the slightest error can cost millions or more in lost sales via state textbook-selection committees. Hence, errors in textbooks are actively, even *fiercely* fought, and preserved against correction or even changes.) Electric current is electron-flow? Wrong. That only applies to metals/silicon/carbon. For example, no electrons flow through human bodies, or through salt water, or battery acid, or the ground. When you get shocked touching a doorknob, no electrons flow through your flesh. People have no free electrons inside (that's metal crystals only. And graphite too.) Protons can flow as an electric current ...just not in metals. Electric current is CHARGE FLOW, and different types of conductors have different types of charges flowing. When scuffing on carpets, electrons aren't transferred (electron-transfer applies to single atoms and chemistry, not to frictional charging of solids, where entire ions are transferred.) Why isn't this explained? Simple: the author clearly doesn't know it. The author doesn't know that entire atoms get transferred during frictional charging, or that protons commonly flow, or that during currents in salt water, no electrons flow at all. (They no doubt picked up the common "electricity is electrons" misconception from their own education, and now are passing it along to everyone.) The path for current is *through* the battery, then back out again. The animated pathway must go through the battery. Yet it does not? No current through the electrolyte? This error ruins the entire concept of "electric circuit!" Circuits are complete loops, and batteries act as charge-pumps, with the path for charges passing through the battery electrolyte. (Batteries don't supply the charges being pumped.) That's just a few of the errors. To do it right, one must first locate all the many misconceptions being spread by grade-school textbooks. But before that, first one must accept the fact that grade-school textbooks are simply brim-full with errors and childhood misconceptions (errors that the teachers themselves believe, and refuse to ever fix. The situation is created and preserved by publishers, companies who would be greatly harmed if the errors they've been spreading were ever accepted as being real.) One must confront the fact that, unless we have decades of experience, then we have a head full of physics-misconceptions, the same misconceptions that teachers and textbooks are spreading. If teachers and authors knew how electricity actually worked, they would easily give a simplified and error-free lessons, rather than instead copying earlier textbooks, and thus spreading both the good information as well as every bit of the bad. Search for lists of electricity misconceptions. You'll find that many appearing in those lists, are also appearing in this video. But that must be OK, right? After all, if every person has acquired the same serious disease, then it becomes OK to never attempt a cure. Widespread disease must always be tolerated ...because its widespread! If everyone has a disease, then maybe for some reason it must be important to catch it, and to suffer, right? After all, diseases cannot just spread all by themselves, correct? Therefore the suffering must be important, intentional, and also some unknown experts in the past must have set up the situation on purpose!!! (No. It's simply a disease. It arose and spread spontaneously. And if the cure is simple, all suffering is needless. But those with the disease will fight you.)
@Alexandre Alves No, the mistakes in this video have nothing to do with quantum mechanics or their analogies. The author just has a head full of childhood misconceptions, same as the "viral load" of mistakes carried by most grade-school textbooks. To get the actual good stuff we cannot get it from K6 publishers: companies who have no pressure (or need) to produce accurate material. (They just have to satisfy parent-groups. And also they must make certain that any errors in their books are the same errors found in books from other sources. That way they can deny their existence, and defeat any outsider who complains about the mistakes.) The mistakes are easily removed. But most K12 authors will instead fight to the death, rather than to accept that their knowledge and writings are full of mistakes, or that they've been spreading those mistakes widely. Thus, the problem persists. Tolstoy: "I know that most men, including those at ease with problems of the greatest complexity, can seldom accept even the simplest and most obvious truth if it be such as would oblige them to admit the falsity of conclusions which they have delighted in explaining to colleagues, which they have proudly taught to others, and which they have woven, thread by thread, into the fabric of their lives." It's the rare, exceptional author who will fight to perceive their own mistakes, rather than fighting against anyone who dares point them out.
As an Electrical Engineer, I certify the information is accurate and incredibly easy to understand. Well done, Creator!

In fact, it's the resistance of the wire that makes this dangerous as the resistance produces heat. If the wire had no resistance, then the flow of electrons would not produce heat.
This is why I read the comments. Great lecture; helpful amendment.
why? If there was no resistance, wouldnt the electrons flow much faster therefore producing heat? 🤔
@@melonachii The battery or whatever source has its own internal resistance. If it was shorted out with a very low resistant path, the battery would heat up.
Probably the best introduction to electricity I've ever come across. Kudos to the creator👏
This made everything I’ve ever watched about electricity make so much more sense!! Thank you!
Thabk you and you're welcome 😊
the name of the channel announced the marvel already, ur video and the whole playlist is by far the best content on youtube about the topic
Will you ever finish this series? Really loved this one
God bless You dear!!!!!!!! I'm sure making that video requires some special attention and skills. and so far you've explained it faaaaaaaaar better than all my high school teachers back then. Great video!! Keep it up!
This is amazing work!
Thank you! i have never seen such an amazing animation !
شكر جزيلا على جهودكم المبذولة.
من جد
👍
👍
bro thank you soooo much this video made me understand the whole thing in just 10 min and i didn't understand it for the past 2 months with my teacher thank you sooo much
What a great video! I'm an electrical engineering student and I'm amazed with how well explained is this video. awesome animation!
Yes a very good explanation, I agree with you. the INTERNET can be educational, informational, entertaining and handy.
Please upload more! I really needed this back when I had to learn this in the most inefficient and vague way possible. The education system is outdated and your videos show this.
Awsm. This is what actually missing in today's education. Really helpful ❤️❤️
November 2021. Contributor Veritaseum and others have just posted, posited and peer-reviewed each other that the electrical energy that makes electrical items work is actually the Electro-magnetic field surrounding the circuit wire and created by the moving electrons. Happy for my own understanding of this new approach also to be peer-reviewed.
I never thought I would be actually interested in learning this. Idk, the school made it seem so boring. But this is awesome. That's why I love this channel: Clear and easy explanations. Great job! :D
Glad it was helpful! Hope to find time to make more :)
This is one of the hardest topics to explain you have explained it so beautifully
This is the best explanation I've found yet. I've gotten by on the old water pressure/flow analogy for a while but wanted to better understand what's actually happening. "Electrons are not spent…" answered one of my most basic questions. Thank you. All right, onward…
Sorry to say but its misconception that electron flow from one terminal of battery to other in fact they oscillate so little that their movement is negligible, its the electric field and magnetic field that carry the energy around. electrons stay in approximately the same space.
electrons do not carry energy from battery to bulb its the fields.
(we are taught wrong about electricity in colleges)
@@karanraut4417 that's what I was thanking the video for explaining.
Fack for you 🤪😈
Brilliant teaching.
Doesn't assume we already know the basics already.
Thanks a million, sir.
So nice of you - thank you!
I just got an electrical apprenticeship and have been looking for electrical education videos and this was brilliant, thank you so much. Going to watch more of your videos and I hope you keep creating content!
please expand your channel. your channel is awesome. this will help billions of students. please make videos on more topics too.. love this video.
when 3 years of chemistry class taught you almost nothing, but this 10 minute youtube video saved you from repeating class
I love this. it is all I ever asked for. ITO keep bringing out videos like this and you will go places
This is real study of science seriously man you explained it well done no words it's a rare channel of explaining electricity's
Why this guy has not million subscribers such a shame, insanely amazing video
Well done, "electrons are carriers of charge"
Electric video
But what about debits?
Thank you so much. Excellent, one of the best I have ever seen and heard. You are a great communicator with a really good voice for this subject.
Dr. Mark
thanks, man.. I'm 31 years old now, never understand physic in high school, and always curious about how electricity is actually work.. wish there was video like this in that time..
Damn I never thought about that. Us teens are lucky these days because we have these videos to help!
This was the best explanation about electricity really wish yall made the other videos ...still love it
Excellent explanation. I would love for you to create more follow-up videos in this series.
This channel deserve millions of subscribers 😊
Fantanstic explanation. There is still hope for me to understand electricity.
Why have u stopped making video even after four years this is the best explanation of electricity can u please resume making this series it's really very helpful
your voice is perfect you are a "NARRATOR" congratulations! few are! excellent! i have subscribed and will watch all your videos. you speak in a slow and poistive manner.
you tube videos like this will put the public ed system out of business- so keep up the good work!
I didnt understood electricity even after 5 hours of my teacher. But I understannd now very well only in 10min
I AM SO THANKFUL THAT I CANT EXPRESS , EXPLANATION AND ANIMATION IS NEXT LEVEL🤩👏
I would just want to say, Thank You and it was just amazing.
Wow! Such an amazing video. Everything is right to the point. I've watched lots of videos concerning this topic but this is the best so far.
"We are now confident that electric and magnetic phenomena are attributable to ether, and we are perhaps justified in saying that the effects of static electricity are effects of ether under strain, and those of dynamic electricity and electromagnetism effects of ether in motion." - Nikola Tesla.
I am a 14 year old now learning about physics and electricity and i found this video very easy to follow and understand.
Background music sounds like the galaxy map in Mass Effect... I damn well approve of that! Great choice!
This video is fantastic!! It covers so many things in ten minutes, from the structure of the atom to how fuses work!
This is the mainstream teaching of electricity and it is a simplified format to be able to understand it much like a beginners guide, crucially though some very big key areas of the video are incorrect, the demonstration of electrons carrying the energy(charge) around a circuit is not correct and in fact on average the electrons will only migrate in the region of mm/hr in DC circuits, AC circuits actually sees the electrons just vibrate about their position any never really going anywhere.
What is happening when you link 2 points with a potential difference (pd) with a conductor is the propagation of the elecromagnetic field (emf) at close to light speed although this speed varies depending on the conducting material, this emf around the conductor is what interacts with the valence electrons and causes them to slowly migrate from Negative to Positive in DC and about their position in AC, the actual energy travels not through the conductor but around it in the field that is created, like mentioned already this field interacts with the electrons but not really central of the conductor but around the surface of the conductor to a depth reflective of the strength of the field, this is known as the skin effect.
It still amazes me mainstream education teaches us electricity flows from positive to negative (the video was correct to some extent by getting the direction of electron migration right), also this idea electrons are racing through the conductor at close to light speed is another total misconception, i realise the atomic and quantum world are much more complex than we can expect to lay on our children but at least they should be introducing them with accurate information and not misleading stuff.
Regards - an electrical engineer with a passion for physics, quantum theory and the atomic world.
Yes, at quantum/field level things are not so easy to make analogies... Do you know a similar Video more accurate in this way?
@@AlexandreAlvesGoogle
It's easy to make analogy,
think of sound,
sound is not some particles traveling through air,
but just a wave that propagates through air.
Air is a medium through which sound travels,
just like that,
Electrons are a medium through which electricity travels,
electrons only enable a charge to propagate in a certain direction,
nothing more,
electrons themselves can't move fast as light, as that would be impossible.
I would assume the reason why they teach this incorrect method is that it's easier for beginners to understand like you said. If one were to study electricity in the beginning as it actually were, then they would just get confused right off the bat. Ik I probably would be confused for a good while until I study it thoroughly
@Moses Q No, it's taught incorrectly because other sources teach it incorrectly, and the author copies their earlier teachers, never questioning any errors. It's the childhood "game of Telephone" where the errors built up over decades, and now the teachers themselves possess brains full of wrong information. They infect the next generation of K12 students with the same errors.
Nobody designed such bad, erroneous material. Instead it was produced by a near-total lack of corrective feedback, which leads to process of gradual distortion, created over an entire century.
Why does it happen? Simple: the publishers of K6 material have no need to remove errors. (Removing errors requires accepting their existence, and THAT must never happen! For large publishing companies, any admission of the slightest error can cost millions or more in lost sales via state textbook-selection committees. Hence, errors in textbooks are actively, even *fiercely* fought, and preserved against correction or even changes.)
Electric current is electron-flow? Wrong. That only applies to metals/silicon/carbon. For example, no electrons flow through human bodies, or through salt water, or battery acid, or the ground. When you get shocked touching a doorknob, no electrons flow through your flesh. People have no free electrons inside (that's metal crystals only. And graphite too.) Protons can flow as an electric current ...just not in metals. Electric current is CHARGE FLOW, and different types of conductors have different types of charges flowing.
When scuffing on carpets, electrons aren't transferred (electron-transfer applies to single atoms and chemistry, not to frictional charging of solids, where entire ions are transferred.) Why isn't this explained? Simple: the author clearly doesn't know it. The author doesn't know that entire atoms get transferred during frictional charging, or that protons commonly flow, or that during currents in salt water, no electrons flow at all. (They no doubt picked up the common "electricity is electrons" misconception from their own education, and now are passing it along to everyone.)
The path for current is *through* the battery, then back out again. The animated pathway must go through the battery. Yet it does not? No current through the electrolyte? This error ruins the entire concept of "electric circuit!" Circuits are complete loops, and batteries act as charge-pumps, with the path for charges passing through the battery electrolyte. (Batteries don't supply the charges being pumped.)
That's just a few of the errors. To do it right, one must first locate all the many misconceptions being spread by grade-school textbooks. But before that, first one must accept the fact that grade-school textbooks are simply brim-full with errors and childhood misconceptions (errors that the teachers themselves believe, and refuse to ever fix. The situation is created and preserved by publishers, companies who would be greatly harmed if the errors they've been spreading were ever accepted as being real.)
One must confront the fact that, unless we have decades of experience, then we have a head full of physics-misconceptions, the same misconceptions that teachers and textbooks are spreading. If teachers and authors knew how electricity actually worked, they would easily give a simplified and error-free lessons, rather than instead copying earlier textbooks, and thus spreading both the good information as well as every bit of the bad.
Search for lists of electricity misconceptions. You'll find that many appearing in those lists, are also appearing in this video.
But that must be OK, right?
After all, if every person has acquired the same serious disease, then it becomes OK to never attempt a cure. Widespread disease must always be tolerated ...because its widespread! If everyone has a disease, then maybe for some reason it must be important to catch it, and to suffer, right? After all, diseases cannot just spread all by themselves, correct? Therefore the suffering must be important, intentional, and also some unknown experts in the past must have set up the situation on purpose!!! (No. It's simply a disease. It arose and spread spontaneously. And if the cure is simple, all suffering is needless. But those with the disease will fight you.)
@Alexandre Alves No, the mistakes in this video have nothing to do with quantum mechanics or their analogies.
The author just has a head full of childhood misconceptions, same as the "viral load" of mistakes carried by most grade-school textbooks. To get the actual good stuff we cannot get it from K6 publishers: companies who have no pressure (or need) to produce accurate material. (They just have to satisfy parent-groups. And also they must make certain that any errors in their books are the same errors found in books from other sources. That way they can deny their existence, and defeat any outsider who complains about the mistakes.)
The mistakes are easily removed. But most K12 authors will instead fight to the death, rather than to accept that their knowledge and writings are full of mistakes, or that they've been spreading those mistakes widely. Thus, the problem persists. Tolstoy: "I know that most men, including those at ease with problems of the greatest complexity, can seldom accept even the simplest and most obvious truth if it be such as would oblige them to admit the falsity of conclusions which they have delighted in explaining to colleagues, which they have proudly taught to others, and which they have woven, thread by thread, into the fabric of their lives."
It's the rare, exceptional author who will fight to perceive their own mistakes, rather than fighting against anyone who dares point them out.
This is one of the best scientific videos I have seen! Excellent!
if the door knob gives elctrons then it will positively charged right
I tried to find the easy and detailed answer for my kids. This is it! Many thanks for your vedio.
keep up guys world need you
What a superb explenaition!!!!! This is exactly what should be studied in schools.. keep up the great work and hope you have bigger audiance
