Chuck Nice has made Star Talk the gem it is as much as Neil has. Having both the humor while at the same time being genuinely interested in learning the science.
What if I run very fast and stop suddenly like I am running very fast let's assume as fast as the speed of sound and I stop suddenly what would happen? Would the impact be the same as hitting the ground if I had the same speed.
Niel, your response to T Howard was perfect, eloquent and educational while being respectful. You continue to live up to the admiration the public gives you. Thank you for being a bright light among educators.
We can also notice that the ball that bounces makes less noise when it hits the board than the one that doesn't bounce. The louder noise produced by the ball that doesn't bounce is kinetic energy being converted into sound waves.
Well done. Very good presentation. I thought the yellow bar for potential energy, and red bar for kinetic energy in real time roller coaster was a nice touch! You really can't go wrong with colorful graphs like that, roller coaster right? You know what we like. It's a great way to learn like that, seeing it unfold in real time with colors and everything.
Damn, college came rushing back, engineering 101. Wow 1992 was a long time ago, thanks guys for making me feel old. If things come back around is that bumping planet coming back around soon, hopefully around November 5th 2024.
The physics of collision is a fascinating study of how objects interact upon impact. It involves concepts like momentum, energy transfer, and the forces at play during a collision. Understanding these principles helps us analyze everything from car crashes to cosmic events.....
Let’s keep it clean here, I was thinking the Ball Room. Some balls are held for charity And some for fancy dress But when they're held for pleasure They're the balls that I like best. AC/DC
I’ve been scrolling looking to see if anyone knew or asked the same question. lol. I know it’s not Astro related but I kept hoping he would’ve explained why one bounced and the other didn’t.
Please dont ever change the way you guys create content 😊. Its as close to PERFECTION as it gets for learning science an keeping it interesting and fun also exciting to know the answers to big important questions!
1. Elastic collision: In an elastic collision, energy is not dissipated but is completely transferred back into the object, causing it to bounce off the surface. For example, dropping a ball will cause it to bounce back to its original height or close to that height. 2. Inelastic collision: On the contrary, in inelastic collision, the energy is not returned but is dissipated in another form, such as heating the object. For example, dropping an inelastic ball will not bounce but will stop as soon as it hits the ground.
Shouldn't the second rubber elastic ball when thrown on the board bounce, role and fall? What stops the ball from bouncing, falling and rolling down of the board? Is it the material combination of the ball and the board? The heat that is shortly being absorbed creating the kinetic energy? Or is it the density of the elastic rubber ball?
Hi from Argentina! Obviously this video is another piece of art, an exquisit dish for a hungry mind... But I am mindblown by the books behind. Just leave me in a cabin with all those books and forget about me!
Cool and useless fact: That Rollercoaster is in Walibi, The Netherlands and it's called 'Goliath'. Actually one of my favorite Rollercoasters in that park. I has really nice and high drops, doesn't go inverted though. Greetings from The Netherlands! 🇳🇱❤️
0:39 An elastic collision simply conserves Kinetic Energy. A very small mass completely rebounding off a very large mass is not required. Hits marble with a similar sized marble, at an angle/non-centered, and they can shoot off in different directions while still an elastic collision. And the equations would show, in an idealized case, that the earth does gain a small amount of velocity when a tennis ball hits it.
One of my favorite memories as a kid was throwing a super bowl onto a roof except the roof was a slanted roof on a church and the ball always came back.
I worked briefly as a janitor at a snooty rich people place and i also quickly developed a fascination with squash balls. They feel like they should bounce just fine but they dont. Until they get heated up, then they bounce pretty good. Edit: I think you're right about them being tire rubber btw, if I'm remembering correctly the brand of the balls was Dunlop, which is a tire company.
We recently got a shipment of squishy stress balls at the warehouse where I work, and some of them had damaged packaging, so we got to look at them. It's so weird that they look like a rubber ball, but when you try to bounce them, they just stop dead.
The elastic ball on the return trip up is also bleeding energy as it fights gravity. So the height of the return apex only reflects a part of the story.
Hello youtube!! I had a silly question, atoms being soooo insignificantly small, could electron instead of a particle with a charge be just negative charge moving around in orbit like path? and could proton and nutrons also be charges and it just be a property of charge to have some mass?
The energy goes into the ball which doesn't rebound. But what is the difference in these two balls? I wish you'd have explained that. It must be the molecular structure - but it can't be so easy to make two balls of the same weight, size, look and feel which have so different properties, I guess.
Something else about cars being inelastic (as much as possible) In the early years of the invention of motors, cars were made to withstand crashes. Materials and geometrical structures were used to keep the vehicle intact and functional so that it wouldn't break as bad during a collision. On the other hand, people were not designed the same way. Car accidents were not as dangerous to the car but became very lethal to the driver, since the kinetic energy was not dissipated into heat or deformation, most of it made the car not only stop quickly but bounce back too, the people inside were subject to a lethal sudden acceleration force, even with seatbelts. This is why cars crumble and deform when they crash, they are specifically designed to break so that you can survive. Still extremely dangerous to have your car stop dead in its tracks, but with the speeds we have achieved nowadays into everyday travel, nobody would ever survive a car crash if the car wasn't built specifically so that it can sacrifice itself for you
I wonder how the elastic ball would behave, if it would be bouncing between two boards in space, where is no air friction and much less gravity? Thank you Neil and Chuck.
Why is there a tiny little green led light on one of the balls? is that an electronic mechanism to make it more inelastic or something? Also, how does the inelasticity work?
NDT is always amazing. He is one of my idols. The way he teaches physics is perfect for me. I can actually understand what he’s saying without having to go. “Uuuuuuh yeah… uh huh” 😂 and he’s so eager to teach people and his personality. I love it
Dude during the last few episodes, I've seen the spark in Chuck's eyes. From where he started to how he responds now, he has been pushed over the top of the roller coaster. He has finally received and taken the red pill. He is officially a lifelong learner like so many of the rest of us. Though he didn't arrive there by voluntarily subjecting himself to years of post grad education or formal/professional training in a scientific field, he has arrived. I saw it best in one of the newer episodes when there was the discussion about every electron being the same electron with the salient example being at 32:45 in that episode th-cam.com/video/PHl_C3ByRDk/w-d-xo.html. That is it. I love it. It's that moment I look for in my student's eyes. I would love to have an episode where he Neil doesn't quiz him on rote memory but just asks him some of those questions that are beyond comprehension from the start. For me as an Aerospace Engineer focused in combustion chemistry and propulsion systems, those would be, "How big does the battery on a 747 have to be?", "How fast does a single turbine blade of a F-5 move in mph?", or "How many HP is the oil pump for the mass damper at the top of the Freedom tower have to be (it floats around on a viscous layer of oil)?" Sure you could have a piece of paper and spend a week calculating the values but no paper... I just want to see how he thinks now or what he thinks is the most important topics we deal with. Just things like that. I think that would be a really cool episode.
We're putting men on the moon and robots on Europa when we could be making the worlds largest, most material efficient Super-Ball and dropping it from orbit. Can we get our priorities together, please?
@ neil... Everytime i watch your videos i feel my mind expanding, ide love to talk some day, ibuave a very simple question my friend, would it he able to lift a car with the negative force of magnets? Ive always wondered if it would he possible ajd how much force it would take, along with how big of a magnet you would need to achieve it?
I would like to know sir, if I take objects with enough mass from one side of the earth to the other side of the earth, will it affect the earth gravity? Could it be that the mass difference between both side effects the way is circling around the sun. Doesn't that affect its aerodynamics and maybe influence in seasons or earth restructuring maybe the heaver side stretches out? Does shape and mass distribution matter when object spin in circles?
It should be mentioned that a car, or impact attenuator (those orange things that jutt out of highway on ramps) crumpling is taking that energy away from what your body has to handle. It's by design. Also, when you see a race car get ripped to shreds in a crash you think "oh my god the driver must be hurt" but the more violent the debris looks the more energy was diverted away from the driver, the carbon fiber bits shattering away as the survival cell or roll cage of the driver is intact.
Knowing that "space physics" is not exactly the same as "planet physics" (or how the same thing behave is different), the idea of how a fast enough object/asteroid to still be on "space physics" interacts in the planet is definitely interesting, and not intuitive at all.
if I drop a feather, does that cause a inelastic collision when it hits the ground? Imperceptible but still present? If two feathers collide is that an elastic collision?
What's your favorite inelastic collision?

surprisingly he didn't go for the color of the balls... so unlike him to not comment on socio political issue from a color reference...
"It's not the fall that kills you. It's the sudden stop."

This whole video i couldn't stop thinking about balls jokes lol
It's very immature and totally out of place but when Chuck squeezed Neil's balls I lost it....
I got a sack with 2 balls too.

Really enjoy your show. Neil and Chuck are very interesting. I hope they never run out of topics.👍🏽 Wow✊🏽
I love these two!!! Their chemistry is off the charts. So funny and interesting.
Now, what material is the inelastic ball made of? And is there a place to buy a set of them so I can do a demonstration using these for my students?
Excellent Question
According to a different comment, stress balls could be a good place to start looking.
Metal, with a thin coating of rubber on the outside.
