I love the slow-mo shots in this. Also thinks it's much better with this length video as opposed to the shorter that's already on the channel. Hope we get more videos from the studio in the future!
Great explanation of the basics of surface tension and some cool visuals! Good sci com guys! Looking forward to all the ways you use it in microfluidics!
Strictly speaking, gravity ALSO tries to give a round shape to liquids. That it doesn't appear so is a combined effect of the sheer size of Earth and all the rocky material that's in the way. Though oceans certainly aren't flat, for instance.
Stop me if I am wrong but I don't think gravity gives a round shape to things. Gravity only attracts them. So the shape of the oceans is due to minimizing the distance of all the liquid particles with the center of mass of the earth taking into consideration that they cannot superpose themselves.
For instance, if we consider only gravity all the matter would converge in one point, not making a sphere. The round shape of objects (planet or droplet) is a combination of attractive interactions (gravity or cohesion between atoms) and the fact that the volume of the particle doesn't allow them to be where they would like to (at the center of mass or surrounded by a lot of neighbours). This is very well explained in the video :) and what is called "surface tension" in the case of liquids.
Really disappointed. You mention the papers of Berry, Marchand, Weijs and Snoeijer but do not include the microscopic origin of surface tension. What you tell in the beginning is just what is found in every other source.
Let si vot vi can doo wid it. :( Dis is a pis of camphor. Just like so, it's composed from surfactant molecules, but unlike so, dis molecules so very volatie. vola*tie*. Accent is so distracting me. Anyway thanks for english version, I even thought to start learn francais again :D
r75shell.... first of all the accent is great especially for someone whose first language isn't English ! Second of all please don't criticize someone's accent when you can't even write a proper sentence in english.
Pauline G Is it distracting? Yes it is. So, this is my point, and I show it. Don't like? Don't read. My eng is bad yes, it's true. Should it somehow restrict you for telling me truth? No. Clear? I hope. By distracting I mean, I'm concentrating on accent, instead of meaning what she wanna tell. And, by the way, accent might be not distracting. Also, native ppl may talk ugly too.
r75shell that is your problem if it is a distraction to your understanding of the video not the fault of the person talking... Maybe you should work on your skills in English to understand better instead of telling the person that their accent is distracting.
Awesome as always. I assumed you'd stick with beautiful slow-mo closeup shots, but this more explanatory format works very well too!
Superb video on the Physics of droplets and surface tension ! Excellent explanation too !!

Loved it. Please keep on with this great work.

Great video! thank you so much! Surface tension is an amazing phenomena...
I love your project and videos....Am using them to propel my kids to science. THANKS!
beatiful video!
wow.

Can somone check if my answer makes sens :) ?
yes it does :)

May be. But atm it's true for me. Also, just to mention: distracting does not mean disgusting.
I never said that distracting meant disgusting ... I know the difference ...
