You are very mature and composed to respond all the unimaginative questions. Or maybe they would understand what you tried to tell if the title was 'Roche Limit How It Works' or the kind. I too, wondered why the debris didnt 'fall' to earth, but I know very well this video is not the one to explain that (happened to see the link you shared about Saturn's ring been raining down its planet on the comment section afterwards). This is a 'what if' in purpose to explain the roche limit, not a place to question the source of A B C D E etc, as if they have never seen a what if video. Thanks for the video, I hope people see it in a smarter way!
Came here from anime called 'Your Name. [kimi no na wa]' which has a beautifully made story and includes a Comet falling down on earth. Saw a part where they mentioned about *Roche Limit* and I knew had heard about it somewhere before. Such a brilliant explanation. Hope you make more of these. Earned a sub.
@@patbracken ? What. I thought Saturns rings formed due to a Large Moon getting ripped apart by Saturn's Gravity. The Smaller Moons inside of the Rings are surely much smaller than whatever Moon got ripped apart, so your statement, that "A larger moon can get closer before breaking up" perplexes me.
@@nukl3argam3r38 A larger moon, with stronger gravity, can get closer before being ripped apart by the gravity of the host planet. But this is assuming all else is equal - the composition of the smaller body can affect how tightly it's held together. A small moon that is essentially one solid object will hold together better than a larger 'rubble pile'.
This is a great video I would just add one thing. The tide on the far side of the earth not on the side of the moon is not due to the bulge of gravity. The bulge of water on the side opposite of the moon is because of centripetal force. The bulge on the inside is because of gravity but the other is centripetal force.
Wouldn't this be bad for the Earth as well since there are several particles which can crash into Earth? The tides would also probably be much higher and cause severe flooding along the equator right?
Oh now that makes it easier to understand spedification (idk how to spell it) with a black hole 😮 You know it’s told by a smart and good teacher if I can understand it😅
If the Earth got rings would that cause a problem with observing space? Obviously the rings itself would block the view but would it not also reflect light from the sun and make the outer universe and solar system less visible?
Interesting question. I think we would stop having a cycle of high and low tides. The moon would be a lot closer so we'd have more tidal forces. They would just be uniform throughout the day.
Though if thats how Earth got rings, we wouldn’t be able to see them because Moon fragments would also be raining down But Slowly Saturn will lose its rings, bur right now there are moonlets being formed by the rings, one example is S/2009 S1
That's right. Some people think it will break apart in about 70 million years: www.purdue.edu/research/features/stories/does-mars-have-rings-not-right-now-but-maybe-one-day-2/#:~:text=According%20to%20the%20model%2C%20Phobos,in%20roughly%2070%20million%20years.
There is the balance between centrifugal force and gravity to be considered. How can you explain something looking at just the one. The way it's explained here is as if the moons are not orbiting. Stable orbits for all parts of the moon are not possible because they all have the same angular velocity. So different parts of the moon are trying to fly on different (due to the wrong speed, elliptical) orbits which rips the moon apart. In order to come to this conclusion you must derive that the angular velocity for stable orbits is not the same for all radii.
it really feels like if there are way too many rings then all the rings would have enough accretion to make a moon that can handle the gravity of saturn
On the other hand there are moons in certain gaps in Saturn's rings that keep them in place. So in some way already existing moons prevent the rings from forming more moons.
Assuming it started as a single object, the orbit of a single object forms a ring around the planet. So naturally it would continue in that orbit even if tidal forces broke it apart.
That's a good point. I should have explained about them. Large moons are round objects that are held together by gravity. A shepherd moon is relatively tiny. You can think of it as just a very large rock and it is held together not by gravity, but the same way rocks are held together, by chemical forces.
@@ItsJustAstronomical wow thanks! I had no idea what was up with them but I definitely wouldn't have guessed that. Great channel, great videos, awesome content!!!!! Thanks for all your hard work!
That's could very well be what happened. One of its moons got too close or maybe an asteroid got pulled in. There's good reason to believe that Saturn's rings aren't very old. The ring material is being pulled into Saturn.
I came up with the theroy that the Roche Limit could exist in our lives. In the sense that if a part of you is attracted to something or someone, but you're not totally attracted.... the part of you that is attracted will be pulled more than the other parts of you and so you will be under a tidal force. I guess under the right circumstances you could be ripped apart... the moral of the story being that if you love somthing or someone - make sure you love it wholly from every part of yourself, or else you may well get ripped apart! #physics :) What do you reckon?! Applicable?
the way you edited the rings into earth's surface at 3:24 is impressive
This is in my reccomended because of the name used for the final boss theme of Kirby and The Forgotten Land
I was confused about the Roche limit from the same thing you're talking about
The forgo planet gravity disintegrate planet popstar into space dust when become too near
Kirby is smart

Bro, you make me feel so accomplished, I'm so glad I now understand things ✊🏾✊🏾
Best explanation and the best animation too!
There are small moons inside the Saturn rings, creating gaps, so it's not pure limit of rings/moons.
The Roche limit is different depending on the moon's own gravity. A larger moon can get closer before breaking up.

I really like your videos because of their shortnes👍👍👍👍👍 you should try RUclips shorts
This was so helpful, thank you so much :)
Alright, get the boys together, we are pulling the moon inwards to create an earth ring system.
explained so well
Good job...
who else is here after the kurzgesagt video on the moon crashing into earth?🌚
Another cons of having rings is having the earth surface continuously bombed by ring's debris
Dude that was amazing. More people should see this.
The moon is very important to our survival because it prevents earth from wobbling or from being tidally locked to the Sun.
Saturn had a pretty big moon inside Roche limit to form those rings. 🤔
amazing explanation
Awesome explanation! Will fragments of moon cause earth surface to be uninhabitable and destroy life before they form a ring tho 😢

The bulge of water on the side opposite of the moon is because of centripetal force. The bulge on the inside is because of gravity but the other is centripetal force.
Thanks, but I'm not following the part about the centripetal force. Where does that force come from? I think it's coming from gravity.
What an amazing video! Thank you!!

can you tell us why Saturn has that hexagon at its pole?

We wouldn't be thinking about the rings when our tilt is unstabilised! That'll bring some funnno weather
nice thought, thanks
Thank you so much.....the video is quite helpful.....made the concept much interesting and simple....
Easy and clear explanation... Thank you
Why are you not making more videos? I’ve seen most people say you need at least 20-30 before you start getting real traffic. Keep them up!
I've been taking a break from RUclips to focus on my academic research. I'm hoping to make some more videos in a few months.
Make sense to me. Well explained! Thanks
Nice 😊
But for sich beautiful ring humans have to sacrifice most of humans to tsunami earthquakes and volcanoes until moon disintegrates into ring
Loved it❤
What would happen to tides on Earth if the moon became a ring? Would orbit be on a fixed axis or would there be precession?
Interesting question. I think we would stop having a cycle of high and low tides. The moon would be a lot closer so we'd have more tidal forces. They would just be uniform throughout the day.
1:52 looks like haumea

Great Content
Have ring or have waves that’s a tough one
Fuck I sposed to got shopping I finedh the whole day by watching your videos
How long would it take for the moon to become a ring once inside the roche zone
Well explained

So, Phobos is falling into Mars and he is getting stretched because he is close to Roche limit

The Two Factors Of Roche's Limit Are Hope And Understanding
Sure we get rings, but also gigantic tidal waves and even the most remote village will have fire raining down on it

this comment is 10 months what the fuck are you doing on a comment from almost a fucking year ago@@HappyBeezerStudios
Why there are moons in between rings in some planet?
Why ring but not a sphere? What brings the pieces in the same dimension
Assuming it started as a single object, the orbit of a single object forms a ring around the planet. So naturally it would continue in that orbit even if tidal forces broke it apart.
What about shepherd moons?

There are very small moons in Saturn's rings tho, one is located in between 2 of the rings
What if Saturn's ring are new or parts of broken moon
That's could very well be what happened. One of its moons got too close or maybe an asteroid got pulled in. There's good reason to believe that Saturn's rings aren't very old. The ring material is being pulled into Saturn.

Hmm, maybe, I don't know. My videos are all about explaining simple things like astrophysics, not horribly complicated things like emotions.
@@ItsJustAstronomical Hahaha fair play!
I thought Saturn had gaps in its rings because there is moons inbetween, is this not true?
Nice vid
What if Earth is within Moon's Roche's limit?
The moon is less massive so its roche limit is smaller. So the moon gets to earth's limit first and would break apart first.
and it would kill all of us
So you are from year 0.001
But wouldn't the ring of the moon fall into earth?
Saturn’s rings is a moon to close
I tell you the real way God put them there
uh no
Lol XD nice rings
But the title question is not answered yet:
why rings do not become moon??
Because of tidal forces.
Ok get that!!
but is it possible for a ring to move naturally out of Roche limit to form a moon??
@@ibrar6121 I don't think so. I can't think of anything that would lift the ring particles out like that.
But as the ring formed, it will fall onto us right ?
well not us, saturn probably?
I like the ring because not I, "WE" looked at the moon for too long.
I will plan to turn the moon into a beautiful ring in the future, MuaHahaHA.
