Single and compound pulleys review - lifting our principal // Homemade Science with Bruce Yeany

  • Students have a better understanding when they actually try various pulley systems for themselves, especially when they get to try and lift each other. The biggest challenge is to see how many students it takes to lift our school principal using a single fixed pulley and then a series of compound pulleys. Is it possible to lift yourself using a set of pulleys? Our principal finds out.

    Thanks from this 65 year old elementary school student. This is the kind of lesson your students will remember for a lifetime. Visual, fun, memorable. My high school physics teacher told us after a few weeks of teaching us: "A little knowledge is a dangerous thing - you guys have nothing to worry about".

      medicineman007 Hi Medicineman007, thanks for the support. That's a good question and I have no idea. My goal has always been to let students see and experience some of the concepts of science for themselves, after that I can only hope that the interest grows. This will be my 39th year of teaching and I still love it.

    Sir, you are an amazing Teacher. Practical experience, fun and physics. This should be a project for every student throughout the world. You could make it different, but you couldn't make it better. This is such an inspiration. This is the joy of teaching. Thank you so much :)
    Physics is just normal life. Your practical explanation of pulleys makes this accessible to everyone, it's so easy to understand when you do the experiment and when your teacher explains the obvious.
    Bruce Yeany, you are my hero of the week. My physics expertise was a product of hard work and my autodictactic skills. If only I had had a teacher like you. You are one in a million. I'm sure that many of your students will have had their lives changed (for the better) because of your love of sharing expertise in a practical, easy-to-understand way.
    If I were Prime Minister of the UK, I would appoint you to lead and design UK Science teaching for the next generation(s).
    Wonderful :)
    P.S. The brake is just genius.
    P.P.S. If it were possible to vote for the Best Video that you have viewed this year, your video would get my vote. Inspiring.

  • @robmckennie4203
    @robmckennie4203 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    With a mechanical advantage of 2 you aren't pulling twice the distance to move the load half the distance, you're pulling twice the distance to get the load to move the same distance, or pulling the same distance to get the load to move half the distance.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the angle of the applied force gives the principle an advantage as opposed to the students pulling at more extreme angle.

    Good - very good - engaging exercise that will never leave their minds, no matter how much or how little they understand it; they know there's something there! Which they can explore more later. I think the stress on the rope with the increased advantage is similarly lessened. You're still pulling on the railing just as hard and the pulleys may be taking some stress but the rope is dividing the load (according to how many strands are pulling up from the object being lifted) and doesn't need to be as strong / stressed.

    • @YeanyScience
      @YeanyScience  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      the rope goes through a tube which feeds it into the first pulley, this tube is like a lever and can pivot at the one end closest to the pulley. When you angle the rope and this tube upwards, that tube pinches it against the rope against the pulley wheel and keeps it from feeding into the pulley, to release it you pull don and the rope and the rope is free to move again

    @pakpukik 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hello sir.
    Could you please explain if there is a "rule of thumb" as to how to know what the mech-advantage is in any system?
    Is a fixed pulley only consideted as a change of direction?

    • @YeanyScience
      @YeanyScience  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      In this case the mechanical advantage is equal to the number of ropes that are directly supporting the load. Whatever force is applied to the rope that you are pulling on is increased by that amount, minus the force lost to friction. IT also means that you while you are gaining force, you are losing distance by the same rate. So, four support ropes means you will increase your force by a factor of four, but you will need to pull four times further
