Animation and its detail are far more easy to understand than college EE course.No wonder piles of scholars are veterans from every branch of military,they learned the basics theory and then studied details of technology ,such as modulation.
Over the past two decades far too much complication has been introduced . Basic principles can be clearly demonstrated , this is how electronic principles were taught to me over forty five years ago at college on day release in the UK.
You got that right. It's also why all of these training videos are still used to this very day. Many Union and trade schools use them. Well like they say, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
How good and clear educational films were in the past! (not to mention the papers , HP journal, Tekscope, app notes ,etc) Now is hard to find a complete detailed datasheet .
It's actually correct! Many of these training films get it wrong, showing nonsensical physics, and teaching misconceptions. THIS ONE DOESN'T! It shows that... electricity flows *slowly* in circuits, electricity passes *through* capacitors, and electricity always flows in complete circles (where electricity cannot be a form of energy.) A "charged" capacitor contains the same amount of electrons as an "uncharged" capacitor, since capacitors store energy, not charge. They even show the random thermal vibration of electrons in metals! These guys must actually know some physics! That's rare. Only one slight mistake, mostly present in Part 2... they constantly speak as if "current" was a substance, as if it could flow from place to place. No, the only flowing substance here is called "charge." If they deleted the word "current" and instead said "charge-flow" and "flow of charge," then their language would be far more correct and consistent. "Current" doesn't flow in wires. Hydraulic analog: when describing pipes and hoses, we speak of flowing water, not "flowing current." There is no magical substance called "current" which flows in pipes, WATER flows in pipes. When we turn on a faucet, "current" doesn't fill our bucket, instead it's filled with WATER. The same is true with electricity. In electrical explanations, we'd correctly discuss charge, charge-flows, or perhaps Quantities of Electricity, and the flows of "electricity" called electric currents. Traditionally, in physics the word "electricity" means charge. (The flows of electricity are called currents, and an amount electricity is measured in coulombs, where electricity is not some sort of flow-rate!) The producer screws with the audience, where in part two, suddenly the Trusted Authoritative Voice is revealed to be an actual human being! BREAKING THE FOURTH WALL! I thought you weren't supposed to do that, not before the invention of Television! Also, electron have holes in the center? No, electrons are little half-inch paper circles, those "adhesive reinforcements" for ring-binders. Any office had little boxes with thousands of those white circles. Apparently the size of their animation-frame isn't tiny, not like a modern computer screen! Heh.
OK, up the voltage to 800 Volts then use both hands to hold the uninsulated clips to charge the capacitor. Those who die during this activity will immediately fail the course!
I gotta say I was wondering just a bit if that voltage was being exaggerated by a few orders of magnitude. But on looking closely, he was holding the insulators on those alligator clips. Personally I'd prefer more than an eighth of an inch between me and 800 volts at an amp or two. On the other hand, putting a screwdriver across a 5 mike condenser at 800V should have left him with about half a screwdriver rather than a pretty spark.
Somewhere, I learned to think of electricity like water in a pipe. Pressure is voltage, flow rate is current, resistance is a matter of the diameter of the pipe. You can even sort of understand series vs parallel resistance thinking about pipes.
Not the year is 2023 the video was recorded in 1943 so it is 80 years old video, the instructor looks like 40+ years old if he was born in 1900 and he is alive then he is 123 years old. Their is no chance of that he is alive.

It only works if your computer is the correct distance from a billiard table connected to earth. The correct quantity of balls will flow back up through the pockets, and as long as you break the table's earth, you can now proceed to play billiards. Unfortunately, once the balls go in the pockets, they they tend not to come back up spontaneously: this either means you've got an earth leakage problem, or you need to put coins in the slot...
Funny they used billiards to demonstrate these examples. I was taught the same way but the medium example was water. Electricity flows like water. For example, the resistance scenario using water, imagine water running through a hose, kink the hose and you have a point of resistance.

Film does not not make it clear why decreasing the distance between the 2 plates increases the capacitance and conversely increasing the distance decreases the capacity. Same thing regarding the dielectric material. Why does denser material increase capacity?
Rewatch the segment with the narrator and the microphone amplifier. Probably the most common purpose of a capacitor is perfectly demonstrated right there.
It stores energy after a rectifier like a battery for example but a more perfect battery for short time use (like cycle to cycle rather than for hours.), or blocked DC like he mentioned between stages, while passing AC.

@@drtidrow When I was in "physics school" at U of Louisville, (which I never completed), it had just become possible to create wafers of superconducting material at liquid nitrogen temperatures (this was 1987-ish). I'll never forget gathering around in one of the research labs taking turns pouring liquid N2 from a coffee cup onto the sample Dr Ouseph had made. It was about the size of a US 5 cent coin, black, and could float a tiny sliver of permanent magnet (Meissner effect) for about a minute before it warmed up and needed another shot of cold.

@19:45 "This mark represents the time constant ..." Which should be at, roughly speaking, somewhere north of 1/3 full scale (37%), but it's not. The scope trace is not moving downward either. This is because the actual demonstration, as far as the scope is concerned, is showing two RC time constants, i.e. the demo board and the input coupling high pass filter characteristic of the AC coupled scope. The scope should have been DC coupled, which may have been impossible as many scopes of that era where only AC coupled. Notice how, at higher frequencies later in the demo, the scope trace goes right through the marker line. That's a sure indication that the scope is AC coupled. @24:12 "This is a diagram ..." I have to call it an awful diagram! It shows the first amplifier's plate attached to battery positive and the second amplifier's grid attached to a negative. Although the plate should be positive and the grid should be negative, diagrammatically connecting them to batteries is crazy. Yes, you 'could' make this work by having an impedance on 'the other end' of the battery, but for some very good reasons it's not practical. Schematically, more correctly diagrammatically, a battery represents a voltage node, meaning there is no changing voltage. And they're trying to demonstrate changing voltage is coupled through a capacitor. ??? This oversimplification, if that's what it's supposed to be, bothers me greatly because this training film is teaching something that must later be unlearned.
