      I wanna ask something cuz i rly dont get it
      4:45
      1st, how do we know which distance we should chose between two points?
      Like, how do we find the correct angle of the line?
      In this example to me it looked like the bike lenght was assumed beforehand, and then that lenght was used to find out the direction.
      Sure tho we can assume about how long it is based on the fact that bikes tend to be made within a small range of lenghts
      But then 2nd
      Why wouldnt you find the same going the other way?
      If the line fits in one direction than it would fit in the other since its the same lenght between the two wheels no matter which direction the front tire is facing
      Idk, i assume im missing something, but it really doesent make sence to me why you wouldnt be able to fit a same line of the same lenght all through out the two bike tracks.
      If anyone can explain this to me, i would greatly apreciate it
      Ill tell you a joke in return
      Idk what else i can do on here to pay ya back( maybe a story, or a concept, as you like)

    The amount of information in your videos and the practical applicability of it is absolutely beyond anything I have experienced on TH-cam and I would like to think I have delved pretty deep in my endeavors...
    For me personally this is one of the greatest formats I have had the pleasure of learning from because you spend just the right amount of time on each topic where it's kind of rapid fire but I can comprehend everything clearly in real time so I am able to focus intently without having to think about something and having my mind wander and miss a piece of information...

      I always love reading coments like this one, because they give me a sence of hope for the human race
      Id like to think that most of us have something which we are fascinated in, and some person or people who we apreciate without any pretence, without any jelousy or envy, even if we sometimes might disaguree, but instead filled with curiosity to learn from one another
      Im sure he would apreciate reading this if he did read it
      Coments like this are proof that there are people in the coments who treat other people like actual humans instead of just abstract messages without a source, because it feels like most coments i see in general are written by people who at that moment fail to recognise that they are writing to an actual human beeing with feelings and other opinions besides the ones outlined and so on
      Anyway

    The case for Kristen Gilbert is very interesting. My student and I calculate the probability of 40 deaths in Gilbert's 257 shifts, the probability is 7 in a billion. So yes, those deaths most likely don't happen randomly. This is cool. We need more real world applications of maths and physics in textbooks exercises.

      Maths is beautiful!
      It's like solving a puzzle. Maths allows you to use the little that we know to figure the things we don't know. We use maths to see the connection between things around us. It allows us to understand the world around us.
      It's also amazing to consider that without maths, we most likely wouldn't have chemistry, biology, programming, computer science, physics and even more, because all the things people used to discover all of these things were built by maths! None of these subjects would be nearly as big as they are now if not for maths.
      I thank God for helping me see the beauty of maths.

    In a Tom Clancy story, the Russians had an extremely stealthy submarine, one that absorbed sound that hit it so sonar couldn't pick it up, and had silent engines. Impossible to find, right? Finally our heroes realized that they could find it by knowing where it WASN'T. There's always background noise that looks like fuzz, so all they had to do was look for a void in the background noise, and there was the submarine. Genius!

      Better. Create a community for people to learn the major prep way. Beyond just school, low to no profit organization that allows others who have a true passion to learn about lifes complexities to meet up collaborate and learn in an environment that isnt as assessment enforcing as school can be. And privides a collaborative environment that promotes togetherness, teamwork, and a better understanding of how concepts apply in real world situations.
      I feel like if something like that exists a lot more people will become more open minded and at the least have an appreciation for mathematics and physics. And at the most everyone will realize how cool engineering really is and younger kids will have a better premise to what they can expect to gear up and prepare for the work it takes to getting into the field of study. Or they can realize the work and not get into it lol. But come out still with an appreciation and understanding that they cant simply compare any other work load in a common business job to the work it takes to build such complex modes of understanding within physics and mathematics.

      find videos on youtube specifically pertaining to these requests, by searching them up. and check out Rishab Jain who got into MIT & Harvard, and people's maker portfolio videos on youtube (there's a ton of examples)

      i'm also 15. extracurriculars for engineering: FRC & FTC are the best (pertaining to mechanical, electrical, & computer engineering). Science olympiad and TSA could also work if that's NOT your main thing. F=MA & Usapho are a physics olympiad. Carrara got into MIT & UC Berkeley, check out his channel too. math is helpful for any STEM major. math extracurriculars: AMC (only helps if u AIME qualify), state math contests, college math contests. Go to your local math club or school math club. For all of these, google search & youtube search your questions pertaining to all these names i gave you. really the thing that will help you the most is not me typing out a paragraph, or even 5 paragraphs, it's that you USE this info by searching it on youtube & google.

      That is correct, because as soon as you step back that angle decreases. I imagine it like standing in front of a skyscraper. You'll appreciate how tall it is the most by standing right under it and looking up.

    • @alexv5581
      @alexv5581 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      You need a solid understanding of algebra and trigonometry to take aphasics class and be succesful. Intro physics won't show you how to describe physical phenomena in there true form(calculus/differential equations) until university level. If you are a physical science major or engineering.

    • @jamesbentonticer4706
      @jamesbentonticer4706 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Nope. You need to know how to use what's called the power rule in differentiation. But that's really easy and that's all. Classical mechanics is mostly pre-calculus stuff. Lots of tricky algebra and clever trig applications though.

    40 deaths on her shift vs 34 when it wasnt her shift
    Given there are 3 shifts, we would need to know if those other deaths occur spread out across the 2 remaining shifts, or do they all happen on one of the two shifts
    Did they take in account any other person who was usually also in her shift that could have potencially tempered with something?
    How long did they survay the hospital for?
    We have such little informatipn to go by in order to conclude if she did something or not
    I assume that there was more evidence which we are not privy to , at least i hope so .
    Because a correlation does not equal causation.

  • @justaman1752

    • @zachstar
      @zachstar  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      40 deaths occurred while gilbert was present at the hospital (257 shifts overall during her time there). When she was not present only 34 people died and that was out of 1384 total shifts. The percentage of deaths happening on her watch was really high (kind of like having a coin that keeps coming out 9 heads out of 10 flips).

    4:45 wait
    1st, how do we know which distance we should chose between two points?
    Like, how do we find the correct angle of the line?
    In this example to me it looked like the bike lenght was assumed beforehand, and then that lenght was used to find out the direction.
    Sure tho we can assume about how long it is based on the fact that bikes tend to be made within a small range of lenghts
    But then 2nd
    Why wouldnt you find the same going the other way?
    If the line fits in one direction than it would fit in the other since its the same lenght between the two wheels no matter which direction the front tire is facing
    Idk, i assume im missing something, but it really doesent make sence to me why you wouldnt be able to fit a same line of the same lenght all through out the two bike tracks.
    If anyone can explain this to me, i would greatly apreciate it
    Ill tell you a joke in return
    Idk what else i can do on here to pay ya back( maybe a story, or a concept, as you like)
    Have a good day

    • @gamesandglory1648
      @gamesandglory1648 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You take the direction the solid line currently is at any arbitrary point.
      Extend a straight line in both directions from multiple points on the solid line in accordance with that
      in 1 direction, the distance until they cross the dotted line will always be the same (in some cases, will cross the dotted multiple times, only the distance that is in every measurement matters), this is the direction the bike is heading, and the distance is also the distance between the front and back wheel
      in the other direction, the distance will not be equal, and in fact may be infinite/undefined (they never cross), this is not the direction the bike is heading
      Using the example in the video, I measure the distance at several points according to this method.
      The distance he has going to the right is aprox 3.5 centimeters on my monitor (not the length of bike, but is the onscreen model, would be scaled up in any actual situation)
      taking from the points he picked in the graph, the first point is aprox 4.5 centimeters from the dotted line in the other direction, the second aprox 3.5, the third aprox 2.5
      while it ALWAYS touches at 3.5 cm to the right

    I don't think I'm understanding this "shift" data. How long is a shift? Is it really the case that the average relevant employee (not sure who they are) spent 26 hours per week working?

  • @danielkeliger5514
    @danielkeliger5514 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Evryone misunderstands what p value refers to. In classical statistics the question what is the probability that the given hypothesis is true is meaningles. It's eather true or fals. Only in a bayesian setup can one make sense of such questions. What p values realy stands for is how inconsistant is the data to the hyphothesis given that the hypothesis is true. If the sample has a too low probability of occureing given the hyphothesis, than we coclude the hyphotesis does not reflect the data well and we choose the alternative hyphothesis.

      Your question doesn't makes sense. Are you saying you want to work in physics? In that case you need a Phd in physics. Depending on what you focus in physics will determine what type of research in physics you will do.

    @12:03. Many years ago, I asked the question about manhole covers of persons who applied for a mechanical engineering job. You would have failed that question. A large enough manhole cover will cover a small enough hole and not fall through as long as the widest hole dimension is less than the smallest cover dimension. It is a matter of the size of the supporting edge or lip of the hole. There are many reasons manhole covers are usually round (not all are). Those reasons include, but are not limited to, efficiencies in materials used, costs, stresses in materials, ease of orientation, ease of movement, etc. I like your videos, but you swung and and missed on this one example.

    3:00 the bike problem was solved by Sherlock Holmes in a story i don't properlt remember.
    There were bike tracks on a muddy downhill and Sherlock understood where the bike went and told Watson the reason.
    It was not "solved" exactly, he did not tell maths behind it. But gave a little bit of logic that i was not able to understand.
    If i remember correctly i think it is the one story in which a football player goes missing.
