Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos I am sure everyone who views your channel regularly really appreciates it! You have really helped me to understand both basic and some more advanced principles which I didn't think I would ever be able to understand.
Ahmed, Thank you for this comment. With comments like yours I am being reminded that these videos not only help people around the world but they also bring the world closer and makes the boundaries between people disappear. It makes us all one and that may be the greatest reward of these videos. Keep up the hard work.
I don't comment on youtube at all, but I just want to say thank you so much for making these videos. They have been extremely helpful to me in my engineering classes, as my professors are usually extremely vague and confusing during my lectures. We all really appreciate the work you put in to make us smarter and our lives easier!
it's the first time writing on youtube in my life. Your lecture is truely the best. Now I found my way to survive in my physics class. Thank you so much sir. God bless you.
Everything that was unclear to me during the lectures with my professor is suddenly so easy and makes a lot of sense. Thank you! Your explanation of the topic is marvelous.
Thank you so much! I've been watching your videos all semester and you've been a life saver. My professor's lectures can be very confusing, but you are crystal clear and help me understand these problems and concepts thoroughly. Thank you :-)
you've explained this concept 10x better than what my teacher could ever do, thank you. I have an Ap physics exam coming up and hopefully, this video will help give me a good score :).
I have watched many of your videos and couldnt find these among them, searched alot about angular momentum in youtube, but belive or not i just hoped you had these videos availible as you did, Thank you so much Michel van Biezen! I and thousands around the world will say that you are not only a good teacher but a great person!
So, here is a good example that illustrates the difference between two masses colliding and two rotating disks that collide. The before and after collision numbers for non-rotating masses must be equal; conservation of momentum. Then we have two rotating disks and we have "L" angular momentum, based on the right-hand rule. I understand, thank you again. This is why I love your lectures.
Everyone please leave a like for this guy. He really works hard and he is amazing. Liking all his videos show appreciation. I think we owe him atleast this much in return of good knowledge and help in our work. Thanks guys! And thank you sir for helping us all out, keep up the great work!
your smile really helps me understand physics ! , I don't know how that works exactly, but am 100% sure with a positive teacher I can learn way more, however, when the teacher looks angry and too serious its completely the opposite, even sometimes I skip class and study at home instead cause Its more beneficial for me! Thanks for the videos and keep smiling sir :D
Hi I just wanted to let you know I really appreciate and enjoy your videos! I'm in the first year of my physics degree and they have really helped me a great deal. The way you teach is very pleasant and that I really admire how much effort you put into your videos and how consistently brilliant they are - considering how many there are of them! I really can't express my appreciation enough and am just commenting to say that you've really made a difference to my learning and that I hope you continue making these videos so others can have the benefit of them too. If there is somewhere I can donate to support you, let me know.
Helena, Your comment is very much appreciated. I have always wanted to be a teacher and TH-cam along with the internet has now given me the ability to reach a lot of people around the world. With comments like yours it gives me great satisfaction and assurance that people around the world are benefiting from these videos. With such affirmation I will gladly continue to make many more videos on different subjects. Thank you for taking the time to let me know that these are making a difference in your life as well as the life in others. Good luck with your studies and keep up the hard work. There are many rewards down the road when you obtain a physics degree, as well as the understanding of a science that helps you understand the universe. In the future with time permitting, I will also post videos on physics at a more advanced level so that undergraduate and graduate students can continue to benefit as they continue with their studies in physics.
Thank you, Michel. What you are doing is amazing. i can start watching videos of any topic you explain, and i end up mastering it at the end. Thanks again, Michel. Nasser,
Please, can do a number of videos on concrete structures such as concrete beams, columns, slabs, and foundations. Surely, you could simplify things. Thank you,
I want to know the logic by what is the reason for angular momentum to be acting up and down, where there is nothing moving up and down.. though I do not dislike this video, it would of been that much better to explain the logic, rather than the math.
@@supersonic174 We just give it an arbitrary direction rule to make our lives easier. If as a society we made the right hand rule the left hand rule, nothing would change physically, but our directions would change.
@@supersonic174 science is not nature. Science is just our way in explaining nature. People agreed on how to represent angular momentum, and thus we represent it as such. It doesn't need to have a parallel in the real world, since the concept if angular momentum itself is human made.
Hi there, I was wondering if you have solved a question about boats and their point masses. The question types I'm looking for are the ones asking a boat's initial distance to the shore after someone in the boat walks to sit near someone else (who doesn't move at all.) Hope I'm clear, thanks in advance
MinutePhysics' video confused me a ton and I thought it was just because Angular Momentum is super hard to explain - nope, he's just a bad educator. Great explanation! Thanks again for the awesome videos!
What would be the torque if i put a total of 5 kg chicken in a rotating disk with a mass of 7 kg and enclosed in a cylinder? The speed of the disk is 225 rpm and the working radius is 17 cm. Also, the chicken tends to be raised up and fall down due to force applied by the rotating disk. my English is bad.
If you watch the videos on the gyroscope it may help you understand: PHYSICS 13.6 THE GYROSCOPE th-cam.com/play/PLX2gX-ftPVXVW0FlsGNnWJvK6asUBdC1R.html
Michel van Biezen But one more thing: what particular branch of mathematics is the most relevant in today's society, in your view of society? Thanks so much for your time if you do answer...
Unfortunately, our schedule is maxed out with our multiple jobs and then working on the videos. We try to answer questions on the videos when time permits, but we don't have the time to respond to individual requests like that.
Most laws of physics are based in experiment and observation. We observer the conservation of momentum and then we try to find the equation that descrbes what we observe.
You said momentum is always conserved, but doesn't it depend on the system? If there's an external force on the system, then momentum is not conserved...like if friction is an external force, for example...
+Tobey Nguyen Momentum is ALWAYS conserved, there is no exception. When a snow ball is thrown against a wall and sticks to the wall, it APPEARS as if momentum is not conserved. Can you think of why momentum is still conserved in such a situation? That will explain why momentum is conserved when friction is involved.
Yes, in that case momemtum is conserved because of your system. Only for an isolated system is momentum conserved. In a non-isolated system, momentum is not conserved. My professor makes us define our system and show that there is no net force (or negligible force) on the system before we can use conservation of mometum, or else we don't get any credit. www.physicsclassroom.com/class/momentum/Lesson-2/Isolated-Systems
Take an example, when we throw mud to a wall they stick together and come to rest. In this case, momentum before is not zero but momentum after is zero. If it is not can solve this: 400g of mud is thrown to a wall with a speed of 20m/s. If the mass of the wall is 1000kg what is the speed of wall. Can the speed of wall be 0.008m/s?
Yes, they are for the understanding of the material. But the JEE exams require training on how to take the test. The problems in JEE are usually very hard and take more time to work out completely than you are given, and thus you need to learn short cuts on how to get the answer quickly. Our plan is to do a set of videos on how to do that, but not in the near future. We need to complete a number of topics first.
Michel van Biezen I would like to know when the videos will be published because I am writing on 8th of April an exam in lagrangian machanics please do something you the only lecture I understand I passed my first year physics major because of you without you I will fail this exam
+Gabriel Gumede I work 3 jobs during the week so there isn't much time. I will try to make some this weekend and we will try to post them early next week. (No promises, but we'll do our best).
got my phys 1 exam in 2 hours. practiced probably over 1000 problems, but I still feel sick... I just hope that the prof doesn't quiz some weird niche stuff, if thats not the case I should pass easily. exams should really be longer than 2 hours so more topics can be in it and the luck component is lessend
@@MichelvanBiezen I will tell you when the grades come in. So far it was just very strange, probably between 2,0 and 3, 0. It felt like the writer of the exam designed it without any knowledge of what we had as homework etc. I obviously practiced the parts more that were also topic of the practice hours in the semester. No relative motion, no special relativity, no angular momentum etc in the exam which were all major parts of the homework. We had to leave one by one because of corona and when I got out of the room, basically everyone I heard was talking about how this exam was nothing like the one we got as reference. Don't get me wrong, it is okay to ask whatever was topic in lecture, its just wrong to give false expectations. and the one question about oscillations was basically just super difficult because we had to derive some super complex angle with cosines etc and the best practice for that woudl have been learning some sin cosine table by heart... I am a bit frustrated tbh
Yes, we had those exams ourselves and they are very frustrating. That is why when i give exams today, I try to make them very representative of the major components that we covered during the semester.
@@MichelvanBiezen Grade is 2,3. Not too bad considering everything that could go wrong did just that. Well, its just one course of ~30 in the bachelor, I should probably just move on ;) E&M introduction next semester shouldn't be too bad with your playlist + books and lecture
Just like almost anything else in life: Practice, practice, practice..... But in physics especially, understanding comes from doing problems on the topics you are studying.
Michel van Biezen I was thinking that it should be with respect to velocity, since if m is assumed to be a constant then the derivative of m*v²/2 should be m*v. Not sure if that's correct, but I always assumed that this was the case.
Michel van Biezen I'm not sure if my thinking is correct, but maybe it would become m*v/2 --- half the momentum? I tried calculating (m*v²/2)/v and that's what I got.

To michel Van Biezen
If I have a question about how to calculate the moment of inertia and send a schematic drawing, how can I send it to you?
Unfortunately, our schedule is maxed out with our multiple jobs and then working on the videos. We try to answer questions on the videos when time permits, but we don't have the time to respond to individual requests like that.
Great, Loved It.
can we prove the conservation of angular momentum from newton's laws?
Most laws of physics are based in experiment and observation. We observer the conservation of momentum and then we try to find the equation that descrbes what we observe.
cleared all my doubts#thnx
sir what will be the angular momentum of a "rolling" disk about the origin of coordinate axis ?
+Rahul Tiwari The angular momentum is always: L = I wI = (1/2) mR^2
+Michel van Biezen L = I w and I = (1/2) mR^2
Sir but my book says the answer will be L(translational)MVR + L(rotational)(IW)=3/2mr^2 so what should I conclude from it ??
+Rahul Tiwari different shapes have different coefficients of mr^2
Hello Prof, why dont those terms in the numerator and denominator cancel out at the end of the problem? Thanks
+Samuel Souto
Why don't you try it and see if you get the same answer? (you won't)
That is because of the addition in the numerator and denominator.
Could it be possible to increase the ligthing level of the board. I believe it will be easier for us to read upon it. Thank you.
Yes, we have improved the lighting over the years. The older videos did not have sufficient lighting.
u r the god sir
I have a exam. Thank you for videos
You are welcome. All the best on your exam.
Sir still I haven't understood why do we take moment of inertia as the equivalent of mass in rotational motion please help me out
+Rahul Tiwari That is like asking why is F = m * a?Typically through experiments it was discovered that Torque = I * alpha
Hello, greatly appreciate the work you do.....so isn't L=mwr^2?
+Visal Gunaratne
That depends on the shape and mass distribution of the object. L = I w So what is I in this case?
the moment of inertia....
+Visal Gunaratne L = IW = I(V/r) = mr^2(v/r) = mvr
sir when you put i1*w10+i2+w20/i1+i2 wouldn't the "I"s cancel each other out ?
+mike miner (FPS)
The algebraic rules don't allow you to cancel that .
ok i didt see that ,thank you very much

I thought I=mR^2
Not for a solid disk. Different shaped objects have a different moment of inertia.
@@MichelvanBiezen oh ok, thanks for responding
different shapes have different coefficients of mr^2
I guess momentum is the derivative of kinetic energy, huh?
Laurelindo
Derivative with respect to what?
Michel van Biezen I was thinking that it should be with respect to velocity, since if m is assumed to be a constant then the derivative of m*v²/2 should be m*v.
Not sure if that's correct, but I always assumed that this was the case.
Laurelindo
Think it through a little more. What would d(KE)/dv mean?
Michel van Biezen I'm not sure if my thinking is correct, but maybe it would become m*v/2 --- half the momentum?
I tried calculating (m*v²/2)/v and that's what I got.
