  • What's the deal with electricity? Benjamin Franklin flies a kite one day and then all of a sudden you can charge your phone? There's a gap in conceptual understanding! Let's figure out what electricity is, exactly, and how it works, by defining electric charge and electric fields.

    Me watching Professor Dave:
    In High school - "This guy is going over kid stuff, my syllabus is above this" *Clicks away*
    In University - "Whaat? I did not know that. Did he just summarize 3 lectures worth of material in less than 10 mins??"

    I love how you explain these concepts. I have no idea what i am looking at when i see the formulas, but i understand how and why things work the way they do. You have a very good approach that should be appealing to the average person. I certainly learned quite a few things . Keep up the good work and good luck.

    For the checking comprehension exercise at the end, shouldn’t the force be negative because it’s between two protons and they’re both positively charged? Love the video by the way! It was helpful.

    • @ProfessorDaveExplains
      @ProfessorDaveExplains  6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      the q terms include the sign, protons are positive so it's net positive!

    • @ariaflame-au
      @ariaflame-au 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      For electrostatic forces positive forces are pushing and negative forces are pulling, so the positive force has them pushing each other away. If it was negative then they would pull each other together. (Yes it's a little confusing that gravity doesn't do it that way)

    Professor Dave, what determines which of the 2 objects will be positively or negatively charged when rubbed together? eg balloon vs jumper

    • @writerNB
      @writerNB 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      hello john: this is a good question.
      in video professor dave states: "all materials start in neutral state" (this is true ....mostly) some materials are more "radioactive" than others.
      what I think is happening is "materials" (lets stick with balloon-hair friction experiment) have different electrical "tendencies".
      hair of course is different structure to balloon.
      both materials are moving during "friction-event"
      professor dave states: "electric charge is displaced by rubbing these materials" (balloon hair)
      "displaced" means one thing now occupies location of previous thing. (this is not helpful)....
      what are these things?
      where are these locations?
      which thing is "displaced" by next thing?
      friction is actually a kinetic event. (because all material objects possess transferable energy). in some cases, this energy can be transferred easily. in others, energy cannot be released easily.
      professor dave is defining this energy release (here) as electron flow. (i think the electrons are gaining a negative charge during friction event). this is a guess. we cannot see electrons gaining a charge.... (if anyone gets this far, and says... sure we can see electrons gaining a charge, please let me know- i would be very interested in this data).
      (some electrical engineers question whether an electron actually exists). this is confusing. tesla called electron an electrostatic "shell". so...shells of force are being created during friction event (maybe). tesla tended to be very advanced in his understandings of electrical principles.
      we detect this shell-force as "electricity" - a flow of negatively charged electrons wants to go somewhere... where? maybe back to a neutral state... unless material remains radioactive (so some materials retain charge, some dissipate charge).
      peace: thanks for reading.

      two words: triboelectric series. if you perhaps dunno what it is, its a list of random things arranged in such a way that the substances which can easily lose an electron and become positively charged, are placed at the top of the series, while the ones that easily accept an electron are placed in the bottom of the series.

      well if you mean a literal chemical element, that's not going to work, but beyond that ions themselves don't generate electricity, they just conduct electricity in solution. it is simply that electricity can propagate through electrolytic solution. so there is nothing to convert that i'm aware of. but snoop around, you never know!
