    For the past five decades, having flunked out of premed (remember, this was the '60s) I have still yearned to truly understand physics, chemistry, et al., simply for the sheer pleasure of understanding how the Universe works, what it is made of and its history. I've tried periodically many times over the years to initiate this understanding, since I have a large quantity of science textbooks I've purchased over the years (some applying calculus and some not). I start out full of resolve and optimism, I solve some of the problems. But soon enough I'm not able to solve them anymore and my energy (I'm using the term strictly in its colloquial metaphoric sense-- I understand its definition in physics) flags and I give up. I was always left with a feeling of frustration, because the yearning remained, despite the futility. Then, I discovered your tutorials and now I'm finally grokking (again with the '60s) these concepts and solving the problems. .And, at 75 years old, just in time. Grazia tanto, Signor Professore!

    Thank you so much, I have been trying to figure this out for 2 days. The teachers lecture is very unhelpful in using the formula even though he took 2-3 hours to explain it, the textbook literally has only solutions for F=kx which made it impossible to even use the textbook. I can't believe how hard it was to even find a proper explanation on google, finding your videos is a godsend. I can finally answer the 4 questions the teacher has posted. I really really like physics and the idea but good explanations are so far and few.

    eljko Milković, an academic and inventor from Novi Sad, has done something great that has not been done by any Serbian inventor before.
    Milković invention of the mechanical oscillator is widely used worldwide, a testament to the fact that over 500 foreign companies use, sell and manufacture pendulum-based machines used in the heavy industry.
    The purpose of the two-stage meganic oscillator is multifaceted, because the character of the machine (two-arm lever with pendulum) allows its use as a press, water pumps, compressor, crusher, power generator, mini power plants.

    • @carultch
      @carultch 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The moon is in free fall around the Earth. However, due to the fact that the moon has sufficient tangential speed, the moon is continuing to overshoot its target, which is why it doesn't crash in to the Earth. If the orbit were a perfect circle, the force of gravity would directly match the net force needed to cause centripetal acceleration. The force of gravity would be entirely perpendicular to the moon's velocity, which means there is zero work done by the force of gravity on the moon, and zero change in speed.
      The orbit is not a perfect circle, so to a lesser extent, the moon does speed up slightly and slow down slightly. The path of the orbit is elliptical, with the Earth-Moon center of mass (which is inside of Earth) at one of the focus points. You can look up the apogee (farthest distance from Earth) and perigee (closest distance from Earth) of the moon to see how far it varies from a perfect circle. There is the parameter called eccentricity that is also a measure of how non-circular an orbital shape is. The moon does speed up as it approaches perigee and slow down as it approaches apogee, so gravity does do a little bit of work on the moon during this path, but not enough to put it on a crash trajectory with Earth.

    • @muhammadaarif9894

      Gravitational potential energy is relative to whatever you choose to be your datum. If you calculate total mechanical energy based on that datum, it will be conserved in a closed system either way. You just can't change the datum at any point during your evaluation.

    • @carultch
      @carultch 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Good question. It is arbitrary where we define GPE to equal zero. A ball sitting on the ground doesn't necessarily have truly zero GPE, we just define it to have zero GPE by convention. It is mathematically impractical to calculate how much GPE it truly has.
      We define its initial GPE to equal zero. We then dig a hole 1 meter deep. We let the 1kg ball roll toward the hole. The ball falls to the bottom of the hole, and its GPE becomes -9.8 Joules. The ball lost 9.8 Joules of GPE that became thermal energy, when it falls and comes to rest.
      When using the universal law of gravitation, we set GPE = 0 at r=infinity, but this is just for mathematical convenience. When we do this, all GPE's end up becoming negative. It is a simple consequence of picking r=infinity as our datum for GPE for mathematical convenience. There is no such thing as absolute GPE, the way we calculate it in Physics.

    Just curious. In the case of radioactive decay, let say Uranium 235 has a half life of 200 years. So, for a 10 KG Uranium 235, 200 years later, it will reduce to 5KG. Then where is the energy of another 5KG? If we were to work backward, if the earth is more than 10 billions years old. 10 billions divided by 200 years. That mean a 10 KG Uranium 235 around 10 billions years ago, its size before the helf life can be so huge right? Then, what has happened to the energy? If we use the Sun which is doing fusion every moment. The energy should be transformed into heat energy. then during the travel to the earth, where is the lost energy?

    • @carultch
      @carultch 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      " Then where is the energy of another 5KG?"
      The 5kg doesn't cease to exist, it just changes form. When 10 kg of U235 decay, 5 kg become something else, and 5 kg are still remaining as the original isotope of U235. There are biproducts when U-235 decays, and in its natural decay cycle, the next atom is Thorium-231. That means only about 4 amu of mass are annihilated and scattered as energy, while the rest remains as matter in the biproduct of Thorium. The natural decay chain of U235 eventually settles on lead-207, which is stable.
      When U235 decays to Pb207, there are 28 amu of mass that get emitted as gamma rays, alpha particles, and free electrons, the gamma rays of which get absorbed and converted to thermal energy. The alpha particles become natural sources of helium on our planet.
      If you look at the energy balance of Earth, based on the incoming solar radiation, outgoing thermal radiation in the form of infrared, you find that you need to add energy generated in the Earth's interior to make up the balance. This energy comes from the radioactive decay of naturally existing radioactive material

      "If we use the Sun which is doing fusion every moment. The energy should be transformed into heat energy. then during the travel to the earth, where is the lost energy?
      "
      The energy is conserved on its journey from the sun to the Earth. It is just that most of it, continues to travel to the other planets and to deep space. Only a small fraction based on the angular size that the Earth would be in a hypothetical sky from the sun, actually makes it to Earth. But everything emitted in that angular fraction of the sun's surface, does indeed make it to Earth.
      You can calculate the extraterrestrial Watts/meter^2 that you expect at Earth's orbit, based on the inverse square law, and comparing it to measured data, it is indeed consistent with the sun's total luminosity and rate of nuclear fusion in its core.

    If we are energy then once our bodies (matter) die, will our energy continue on? Since energy can not be destroyed then this kind of makes sense.
    This of course doesn't mean that energy of yours would have your consciousness nor memories.

      @ProfessorDaveExplains  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well as you say, we are energy in the sense that we are made of matter, and when we die, that matter persists. Our bodies decompose and the atoms go on to be part of other things, like the ground, and a tree, and the air, and so forth.

    Why it's not Noticed that Gravity Violets Energy of conservation ?
    How ?
    suppose there is lot's of object in space with zero energy ( forgot E= mc2 for this case ) then also imagine there Planet which try to To pull that all object towards it so object will gain kinetic energy and after impact it will release as heat think it planet's gravity have not spent anything to give that all energy to that object instead it gained some energy because of that added mass so next time it will so that same with more energy .
    Other hand think about black hole It always eats and becomes stronger and stronger over time just because of this strange nature of gravity in which it doesn't lose anything by doing any work ( work of attraction )

    • @carultch
      @carultch 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Your pretense that it started with zero energy when it was infinitely far away from the planet, is incorrect. We assign infinitely far away to have zero potential energy, but that is nothing more than a mathematical convenience. We don't know where true zero gravitational potential energy really would occur, and it is impractical to calculate, so we pick infinitely far away because that is what makes the math as simple as can be.
      It comes from integrating G*M*m/r^2 relative to r, which produces a +C arbitrary constant of integration. Since most of the time, we are only interested in differences in potential energy, rather than absolute potential energy (wich doesn't really exist), we keep it simple and assign C=0 when defining potential energy as it derives from N's law of gravitation.

      Both Situation ( Whether object are inside of the planet's finite Gravity field or Field with Infinite range from highest to lowest strength . ) Seems Violate the Conservation .
      Take Hypothetical example for Gravity as finite strength -
      Suppose Sun has Gravitational Field of 10AU unit and its very sharp boundary of it's G - field and there is an object with 1 kg mass , just meter away from sun's G- Field and it just need very little energy to push that object in side that sun's Gravity region ( 10AD assumed ) but because of Sun's gravitational acceleration that little triggering energy will end up millions of times stronger when that 1KG object will hit the sun .

      @@omsingharjit There are planets that are farther than 10 AU from the sun in the solar system, so your premise is already false. 10 AU is about the orbital position of Saturn.
      You have to go far beyond the edge of our galaxy to find a hard-stop to the sun's gravitational field. It does exist eventually, just not at the scale of 10 AU. Eventually, the expansion of the universe gets in the way, and causes space to be created between us and distant galaxies. Where enough space is being created, the gravitational waves cannot propagate fast enough to get to the distant galaxies, and such distant galaxies are no longer in gravitational contact with our own sun and our own galaxy.
      It is lucky that we are alive at a time when we can discover this, because other than the select few local galaxies like Andromeda and the Magellanic Clouds, most galaxies are far enough away from us that they are out of gravitational contact, and will perpetually move away. Eventually, they will move farther away than the observable universe, and no receding galaxies will be visible to us as evidence of the universal law of gravitation.
      How we account for the energy of universe expansion is still a mystery, and is a concept that cosmologists call dark energy.

      @@hajimajinja4941 Because energy is conserved. There is no energy added to the swinging pendulum, when it fell from the person's face, to the opposite end of the room, and back to the person's face. The pendulum can go no higher, than the point at which it started.
      Time would need to run backwards, for the air drag and friction to do positive work on the swinging pendulum, which would speed it up. As crazy as this sounds, it is perfectly OK with the first law of thermodynamics. It is the second law of thermodynamics, that makes forces like friction and air drag slow objects down instead of speed them up.

    Hi, is there any formula for pendulum lever length periods for the free fall pendulum from 12 o`clock when potential energy on 12 clocks is zero?

    • @carultch
      @carultch 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Free fall pendulum is an oxymoron. The bob is still supported by the constraint force in the rod and pivot.
      There is no closed form equation for high amplitude pendulums, where you can't approximate sin(theta) as theta. You can solve it with an infinite series if you need to model it, but you cannot get an exact equation in closed form for the period. It also no longer undergoes simple harmonic motion, when you can no longer take credit for the approximation.
      Hyperphysics has a large amplitude pendulum period calculator, that enables you to see this effect.

  • @Aimenxo

    if the object is falling, that means g is negative and h is negative . Right? so that's why you got positive answer (the negative cancelled themselves) .. instead of negative ????????
    I always get confused with g. sometimes it be positive and sometimes it be negative. Please help!

    • @carultch
      @carultch 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      The reason its sign changes, is that you assign a sign convention and coordinate system as you see fit to solve the problem. In any event, the gravitational field g acts downward, and your assignment of signs needs to account for this, as the downward direction fits your coordinate system. Sometimes it is more convenient to assign positive to the downward direction, other times it is more convenient to assign positive to the upward direction.

      Using v² = u² + 2gh formula you can solve= it.... Here I am explaining....
      v = ? , u = 40.5 m/s² , g = 9.8m/s²
      h = 20 m
      So, v² = (40.5)² + 2 × 9.8 × 20
      = 2032.25
      So, v = 45.08 m/s²
      So the final velocity is 45.08 m/s²
