Military didn't want to build my death ray so I become architect
Legit that sounds like an anime title.
Death Star would make a good space hotel... No for real! Lets build it... That laser is for light effects only...
Tesla? Is that you?
"The problem was the sun"
My reaction: "oh"
Yeah. Most of our energy sources are powered by that uncontrolled fusion reaction - not only solar but wind and even coal and oil. And then there's radioactive material for our nuclear reactors and for much of geothermal, which gets its power from material resulting from supernova explosions before the earth was formed - other uncontrolled fusion reactions. Only when we build our own fusion reactors running on hydrogen will we truly be making our one energy.
Ya don't say
@@mrflip-flop3198 Me who read those 2 replys knowing I'm a mix between smart and meme in the future in a flame war: well actually...
5:47 - The worst part is that the Vdara in Vegas and the "walkie-talkie" in London were both made by the same architect, Rafael Viñoly. He clearly didn't learn from the Vdara in 2010 when he made the walkie-talkie in 2013. 🤦 ¬_¬
- lolll😅😂
The dude just loves parabolas, I guess.
His hext creation: a stadium with a massive glass ceiling in the shape of a converging lens
Fun fact: Viñoly learned, and build a solar plant with the same mechanic.
No no, he learned exactly what he needed to. He's just slowly taking over the world, one scorched lemon at a time...
Joke's on you, I expect math and physics everywhere.
Ikr. Those things govern pretty much everything
4:40 "They found that the problem was the Sun over the desert in the summer"
That hot take is glowing in monochrome yellow-orange
"show up where you least expect"? Well, one place I expect physics to show up is in a physics simulation.
“Any parabola”?!?!?!? There’s only one true parabola!

Hi Zach, love your videos. Most math and Physics students are told of the famous Tacoma Narrows Bridge as an example when being taught about resonance, but in Engineering it is revealed the true nature of the failure was aero-elestic flutter and positive feedback.
2:26: “17 people”
ah, the good ol’ days pre-coronavirus when we could gather in groups larger than 5
Friend: Hey, did you see Zach Star's new video?
Me: No... what's it about?
Friend: I don't know, just some random physics and maths stuff about animations, parabolas and burning lemons... Are you gonna check it out?
Me: Hell Yeah!
I've heard there were a building that was directing wind in the way that women's skirts were up and it motivateda lot of men to "walk around". That's some next lvl physics
This is what happens when you have men designing both the buildings and the skirts. It's intentional.
Anthony Tonev I thought he was joking
Kano Boom and now what do you think?
@@HighestRank Its kinda bad but interesting
Hmm interesting,, I mean the physic
When this guy said random and then instantly moved from Pixar movies to 17 middle aged people + Tae Bo to the song I got the power
I appreciate your videos a lot. Whenever i feel unmotivated in my math/physics class, I watch a video of yours and I suddenly feel way more interested. It’s something motivating about hearing someone talk about the subject and not just learning it ik school. Whenever I think of subjects in school, I already feel bored because it just feels like a task to learn all the stuff.
3:33 Ain't this how you speed up on a swing?
'tis
Yes, exactly. You extend and retract your legs at the resonant frequency of the swings.
The logic is coming to me
I can feel the power
Also Cut The Rope - box 2
As if you can't appreciate Physics more as it is! Really awesome indeed man, now I am definitely more interesting in this kind of topic!
Quick bit: The Tacoma Narrows bridge wasn't resonance but self-oscillation. The wind didn't come in at a particular frequency. It is more comparable to blowing over the top of a bottle. It doesn't need to come in at a specific frequency, the oscillation is self-generated.
when life gives you lemons, burn them with architectural death rays
I dunno why your comment doesn't have more likes.
@@psibarpsi lol thanks feels good man
I love watching these while still in school, it never fails to make me want to learn more!
Did you just read Matt Parker's book Humble Pi? A lot of these examples are also in that book.
This helps me concentrate and learn more about physics, which I don't know too much about yet. Thanks!
I did my structural engineering master’s thesis on the effects of vibration in buildings. I found something I think is not yet published: vibrations that bother people are the ones that resonate at 5 to 8 hertz. This is the same frequency as human organs.
Did you published then?
Publish it before someone takes the idea
how do you measure frequency of an organ?
Bezier curve & winding number is also pretty cool. It makes you realize how much math goes into rendering just 2D curved drawings.
Learning about resonance was one of my favourite parts of the physics course I did at A level. I think the coolest examples are the millennium bridge in London swaying just because the footsteps of commuters happened to be at that frequency. Or when the Tacoma narrows bridge in Washington collapsed in 1940 due to strong winds. Its an incredible video if you wanna watch it
Edit: I wrote this before I got to the bit where you talked about the millennium bridge 😁
Another edit: well I feel like a fool now 😂😂😭
I love u Zach you make me remember that learning is lifelong
Amazing video, I'll send it to some of my students. Thanks!
You're actually making me enjoy math. School ruined it for me but you revived it!
Also reflective telescopes usually use a parabola on the primary mirror.
More math fun: the differential equation of flexure i.e d2y/dx2 = M/EI. Cornerstone of engineering beam theory. Incredibly useful and important, and yes, it's fun too!
You are a legend mate, love you❤️
Your profile picture! A couple years ago I found a picture of that impossible star on Pinterest & then redrew it only using a compass and a straightedge. Turned out fire. Anyways, thanks for making this video!
About the Tacoma bridge. The wind was constant, it didn't match the frequency of the bridge, instead it was caused by aerolastic flutter, which is still a kind of resonance. Maybe you could talk about in another video?
If I remember correctly the Tacoma Narrows bridge is a (common) incorrect example because it happened due to flutter, not resonance
The video is cool and I really enjoyed it,its so inspirational.
Some engineers place something that acts as a chaotic pendulum in buildings to prevent the building to ever come across it's resonance frequency, because doubled pendulum doesn't have one, along with every system that is being coupled to the doubled pendulum, therefor the building can never collapse because of edgy incidents like jumping together in one frequency or in an earthquake.
U always bring something new and cool ,Thanks Creator.
I dont know what is happening but this video popped up when i was just starting to learn animation from after effects.
Diwakar Koirala the algorithm hard at work
hey ! please more often, your videos are really interesting.
Thanks Zach 💯
Things like these(1st part of the video referring to Brave) makes me believe the theory about us living in a simulation. Now it doesn't seem like a fetch theory anymore.
Amazing video! Could you make a full video about resonance? Tks
Resonance is also behind Cut the Rope's second box.
This is ur 200th video and this brings u 500k subs
Congrats
Zach u r a legend in presenting amazing real life incidents that are related to maths and physics
I loved this video!
Wow, amazing video!
Zach , there is this problem we had in physics class about three objects on the vertices of an equilateral triangle such that A moves toward B , B to C and C to A , when and where will they meet. Almost everything just says by symmetry ,the centroid is the neetig point , but the diagram itself looks beautiful ,I am trying to find if there more of a other method
My physics teacher came upon the subject resonance and he too gave the example of the Tacoma Bridge, saying it collapsed because of the wind matching the bridges natural frequency. But when I checked in Wikipedia it said that it did not collapse from resonance but do to aerolastic flutter. I'm still confused on what's the real reason of the collapse.
Zach: *uploads a video*
Me: "ah shit, here we go again"
Zach is a smart guy. All I know. Your content is unique .
Really interesting vid. Maybe make it a series?
“If you want to find the secrets of the universe think in
terms of energy, frequency, and vibration.” - Nikolai Tesla
Lmao imagine my suprise (unsurprised) when they modeled it as a spring. I THINK ITS THE ONLY THING PHYSICISTS ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND
When I was undergrad, the head of physics department in our university said to us that it could very well be renamed the department of harmonic oscillators. As everything either is one, or is modelled as one.
thank youu
4:29 Now that's what I call a hot take.
Tacoma narrows bridge collapsed not because of resonance ( a widespread misconception ) but due to something called "Aerodynamic flutter".
Glad you pointed this out. He says a lot of things that are not accurate, but this is basically a bad advertisement for Curiousity Stream.
Is aerodynamic flutter also a type of resonance distinct from the simple resonance within bodies?
It is a bad combination of lift, inertia and resonance. Maximum lift occurs at about 0.2- 0.25 the distance from the leading edge of an airfoil, so has torsion component. So the airflow produces lift on a surface that causes it to twist. Inertia carries it past the point where where the springiness of the surface can overcome the twisting force and the force itself will drop if the airfoil twists far enough to stall (airflow detaches). The foil twists back in the other direction where lift is generated on the other surface causing it to twist in the other direction. Movement will tend to die out unless it is exciting resonance in the foil body.
@@gary3ward so it's still resonance, isn't it?
@@vsm1456 definitely resonance. I was just pointing out the aerodynamic effect that will match any resonant frequency. I should change the last sentence to read,"If the part is stiff enough it can damp out the vibration or else catastrophic failure can take place in milliseconds for smaller things like wings, ailerons, rudders and elevators. The aerodynamic forces will match the natural resonant frequency of any part if the displacement is great enough to cause stalling (detached airflow)"
Now this... this is epic
Stable video👍
We would love to see you starting a course on discrete mathematics for us.
I've been wanting to do some more discrete math, hopefully will have some videos soon!
2:31 You get a chapter in Matt Parker's book Humble Pi
The Tacoma Narrows Bridge actually did not collapse due to resonance; the real cause was aeroelastic flutter. When a breeze blew past the bridge, there was an uneven aerodynamic force distribution, which caused it to twist slightly. This twist imposed a more uneven force and moment in the opposite direction, which led to an even larger twist in the opposite direction. This process continued, where uneven aerodynamic forces resulted in an ever-increasing twist oscillation and ever-increasing net forces, until finally the critical strength in the bridge was reached and it collapsed.
This is essentially what flutter is: just like resonance, it's an amplified oscillation, except instead of matching the natural vibrational frequencies of the structure, it's caused by lift, drag, and pitching moment feedback compounding on itself
Nice!
Love you💕
I'll watch your another channel video first to get ready for this one 😉
Hey Zach nice video, what’s you’re opinion on biomedical engineering I’m kinda torn between that and mechanical I know mechanical has way opportunities.
All these examples are from Matt Parker's book "Humble Pi".
Math and Physics are accurate ways to describe the reality. The problem is, the reality is really complicated.
Hi Zach. I wish to start a software startup. What degree would be helpful for this. Thanks.
Hello.
I'm looking for information about quantization matrices in mpeg1 video encoding. I have hardware Video CD card based on cl450 chip by c-cube from 90's. There is super good software t-mpeg encryptor to encode your own videos. I can understand bitrate and proportions , litle bit about frame structure but nothing about how to apply those matrices for encoding. It is important as someone was able to squeeze over 2 hours movie on single CD thanks to low bitrate settings!
All best!
Wobbly building + sunlight focusing= random death ray
The sun being the cause of a hot pool??! crazyyyyyy
So if I were to be in an animated movie, my hair would be a *spring* ?
Yes yes and yes
When I was in the military we would break step while marching over small bridges.
Nice video.
this comes to an idea to why the pyramid was built in ancient egypt, it is probably a purpose to generate illumination of the city at night. As how the pyramid was shaped as a prism( covered with limestone and a gold capstone), the prism like structured can create an array of light distribution by the light being reflected by the moon to create illumination across the city. Who knows? great wonder nevertheless
The Vegas hotel AND the London "Walkie Talkie" were both designed by the SAME inept architect Rafael Viñoly.
Nice
Another weird place where math shows up: you can find r = 2+2sin theta in coffee mugs
I always expect math and physics, lol
Is the effect of the shaking tower the same as timing the swing-pushes just right?
Yes.
I notice at .44 time dilation equation is shown not sure of the otheer equations. very interesting thanks for computers and matric transformations,
excuse my spelling have a handicap...
smooth lmao
An even more extreme, and embarrassing for the architect , example of unwanted concentration of reflected light was experienced by unlucky folks around the Frank Gehry designed Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles. Check out the story. Oh, one other thing, the Tacoma Narrow's Bridge had a nickname given to it, before it shook itself apart .... Galloping Gurty was what the local press called it. Every Civil/Mechanical/Structural engineering student learns about that engineering mega-failure in their introductory coursework.
Im upset. I finished this video and told myself: i better watch that new video before i forget. I feel like when you eat fast food and realize you already ate all your 🍟 fries.
Any Engineering Design Subject Class starts...
Tacoma Narrows Bridge: Ah...here we go again.
Sorry i'm new. But aren't 2 concentric spring equal a single string with ktot = k1+k2 ? what's the difference between put 1 spring with k = k1+k2 and 2 nested spring with k1 and k2 ?
Dakoma bridge wasn’t resonance! It was very similar, the shape was made so that if it was ever to twist, it would result in it catching wind, twisting to the other side, catching wind etc. There was not resonance, just a constant force applied under changing angles.
YAAUYAYAYAYAYA
tl;dw: Everything is a harmonic oscillator.
That poor lemon
Every RUclipsr I watch who is sponsored by Curiosity Stream produces way better content than the stuff that is on Curiosity Stream.
ah yes, the spanish inquisition of the universe
If you studied engineering, then you would've seen the Tacoma bridge video in the first lecture.
Hopefully there's a mention of the Regency Hyatt, too.
I don't care if you re-upload, I will still be first
Andrew Salinas what

@@dangerfar patreon early access prob
@@dangerfar Why is there ALWAYS someone who doesn't know videos can be made available earlier to Patreons?
Leyrann Maybe because not everyone is a nerd like you and only casually watch youtube. Fuck off and take your attitude back to your cave.
Physics shows up everywhere, its kind of in the nature of physics. For example, most of chemistry is essentially a field of physics. For example, reaction rates are highly dependent on the movement speed of particles, a variable we have come to call temperature.
This is new contents for the century. A new way of learning. Thank you for your efforts so that we can enjoy the math and physics like never before
nice
What subject did you study in college? It must be interesting
Yikes, you got physics in my mathematics again!
Yikes, you got mathematics in my physics aga... oh wait never mind. That's always
There is a law in germany that forbids you to March in unison over bridges
