    The idea of treating superpositions not as purely quantum mechanics weirdness but as just "a state made up of a combination of other fundamental states" is one that definitely needs more exposure. It has natural parallels to things which people more intuitively understand like RGB color (the idea that any color of light produced by a screen or printer can be decomposed into different amounts of three fundamental colors) or music (the sound waves that we hear aren't pure tones but superpositions of different fundamental frequencies). Even forces in introductory physics obey the superposition principle (the overall force exerted on an object can be described as the sum of all individual forces exerted on that object).
    Yet somehow when it comes to quantum mechanics people think it's strange and mysterious

      I think the weirdness people think when it comes to quantum is not so much the mathematics behind superposition or the idea of describing states as a sum of other states, but rather the interpretations of quantum mechanics that say the particles actually are in all those states simultaneously. In the example you gave, sound waves and light waves are not all simultaneously all the different composing frequencies but are rather the sum, or the result, of the comprising frequencies. For sound, the actual pressure of the air at any given point in time at a point is space is one specific value, not simultaneously a superposition of the different pressures (or maybe it is and we are only measuring it as one I don’t know). The point is, I think the issue people have is with the interpretation of superposition in quantum mechanics rather than the mathematical principle of superposition itself.

Yes, but 'probability waves' work differently, hence 'quantum tunnelling' can happen whereas sound waves are always reflected / absorbed (although they vibrate the barrier which vibrates the air the other side depending on barrier properties)... Physically I see a point particle as a field imbalance that is repelled inwards by surrounding empty=balanced field trying to stay balanced.. Inward pressure. Gravity, part of the Strong Force.... The imbalance can pop up within a volume with a probability, squillions of times a second.

    I witnessed the rotating/bobbing phenomenon at work today. I work on a vertical lathe. Today I lifted a 3 ton piece with a 3,2 ton rotary crane (see google image search). The piece was thin at top and wide at bottom. I set it spinning and lowered it a bit. As it's quite heavy, it started bobbing up and down. Remembering this video, I observed it and yes, the rotation slowed and the bobbing amplified. Then the rotation sped up and the bobbing stopped.
    I've noticed it before, but thought my eyes/brain was short circuiting. But now I know it's real and also the reason for that, altough I don't still understand the weird connection between these two movements.
    Thanks for the video!

      *How are the different spring motions actually coupled in the Wilberforce pendulum?*
      In the Wilberforce pendulum, the linear tension of the spring (the linear spring constant) is altered by the twisting of the spring, and the rotary spring constant is altered by the linear stretching of the spring. That is why this Wilberforce effect only works with a coiled spring.
      If you pick out a short portion of the spring wire and examine it very closely you will find that all of the actions involve slightly stretching that part of the wire. But one of the stretches is across the diameter of the wire while the other stretch is along the length of the wire. If you could look really closely, at the atomic level, you would see that all of the actions involve simply stretching the electron shells very slightly. Basically, stretching is stretching, regardless of the direction.
      Note that if you try to use something like a leaf spring you will not get this Wilberforce effect, though you might get a different effect.

      If two systems that can store energy have some shared property it is inevitable a fluctuation caused by one system will cause a fluctuation in the other.
      If you interact with a pendulum it cannot do much else than to swing with some amplitude. The higher amplitude the more energy stored. It is not unlikely if another system that can resonate is attached to the pendulum it will periodically transfer a portion of energy until it has reached its lowest energy level.
      The energy accumulation process in-between two resonant systems also have a frequency.
      I find it not amazing at all. How else would it work?

    5:54 what you showed is not the 3rd normal mode. This is a linear combination of the 1st and 3rd. In the 3rd mode you need the left and right pendulums to move in the opposite direction of the middle one so that the center of mass doesn't move. This is necessary since the 3 modes have to be independant. That's what lets you describe every possible state as a linear combination of these eigenvectors (the normal modes).

If you don’t know if something might work or might not work it starts with theory when you execute what you want to work to make sure it works or doesn’t work that is practical practice. Springs have tension while under load with something heavy same concept goes with rubber bands the thickness of a rubber band needs more weight to support the tension as well as quantity of thin rubber bands the thinner the rubber band it will break under heavy loads otherwise lower the weight for the rubber band to support a weight or have more thinner rubber bands to support heavier weight to give it tension. That is theory that needs to be tested in order to see what will happen otherwise reject all theories and never see what works and how they work. Just take your time reading all of this to get an understanding on how theory and practical works otherwise someone else needs to explain how theories and practical works.

      @Jaystarzgaming 2 месяца назад

      I’m just sharing more information along with more theories. A torsional pendulum consists of a rigid body suspended by a light wire or spring (Figure). When the body is twisted some small maximum angle (Θ) and released from rest, the body oscillates between (θ=+Θ) and (θ=−Θ) . The restoring torque is supplied by the shearing of the string or wire. This might need to be tested on a number of rubber bands if it doesn’t work then it is just for springs or wires if it does work on a number of rubber bands then it has been proven to work.

      Assuming both modes of rotation have similar resonant frequencies yes.

    • @ulysses4536
      @ulysses4536 3 года назад +4

      Yes, because twisting a spring will make it contract/expand depending on the direction of twist, so it will start wobbling and then increase the amplitude. Like Crowe3717 mentioned, if the frequencies match then it will be more efficient at transferring the rotational energy to wobble.
      However, it will be rather tricky to show at the same amplitude as in the video. If you notice, the speed of rotation has to be very high to store the same amount of energy as just a 0.5m of spring expansion. So to have a similar amplitude you would need to somehow give it a spin of that angular speed.
      I would do that by having a long thin stick pointing downwards from the mass, and I would give it a twist by pressing it between my palms while quickly moving them along each other in opposite directions, like that propeller toy you might have seen.

    • @ewthmatth
      @ewthmatth 3 года назад +1

      I'm gonna say no. In this video, he skipped over the reason WHY the stretching of the spring is coupled with the spinning of the weight. I think it is because a spring has to twist somewhat when it stretches or contracts (opposite twist direction, respectively).
      So what I'm saying is that's what allows the bouncing of the spring and the spinning of the weight to influence each other. I don't see how swinging of the pendulum and the spinning of the weight could be linked.
      Edit: maybe it would be partially possible. But I think you would have to give an initial push to start the swinging. No way it would start swinging just from spinning (if the spinning is ideally balanced)

    What makes this work is that when the string lengthens, it unwinds slightly. When it shortens, it tightens slightly. This is how the two motions are coupled. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilberforce_pendulum

    Question: Does this imply that moving a detector closer to the sun would yield a higher count of electron neutrinos?...
    or perhaps they instantaneously begin oscillating to their Muon and Tau forms and there will always be a lower count.
    I can appreciate this idea of superposition being coupled oscillation. Thanks for the visual demonstration. Well done!

    @krupert8355 3 года назад +1

    It works because a regular coil spring is actually a torsion spring. Which means that when you stretch or compress a coil spring, you're actually twisting or untwisting it, and that leads the end that's attached to the weight to apply rotational forces as the weight and spring move up and down, making the wight turn. This also means that as the weight spins it coils the spring tighter or less tight, causing the spring to want to rise or fall, which all contributes to the interesting movements we're seeing here.

    There is a book titled, Stalking the Wild Pendulum by Itzak Bentov, which has been called an original introduction to quantum mechanics. Bentov suggests that pendulums swinging side by side, as with grandfather clocks, will fall into synch because of resonance, or that Nature supports resonating systems. It is a great read.

    • @SirPhysics
      @SirPhysics 3 года назад +5

      1) atoms are smaller than the wavelengths of visible light we can detect, so they cannot even in theory be viewed with visible light. That's why electron microscope exist. 2) The resolving power of the human eye is much too low to make it distinct objects the size of atoms, so even if it were possible to see atoms with visible light our eyes aren't sensitive enough to resolve objects that small.

      @@SirPhysics ? If you're asking why you can't see your retina cells it's the same reason your cellphone doesn't take a picture of its ccd sensor. If you're asking why you can't see atoms visible light has too long of a wavelength. Or are you asking something else? Electronic chips use far uv light to image the masks during their fabrication. There's a few utubers that have made their own ic chips but their features are huge compared to current devices.

    You can also make a video about a self-stabilising inverted multi-pendulum.
    That is a pendulum with multiple segments, set up upside down, while the bottom one is attached to a high frequency linear motor. Such pendulum can stabilise itself to be upright and even re-stabilises when poked. The reason why it works is quite difficult to explain but you could be able to :)

    Hoa! You should have expanded more on the last things you mentioned at the end--the end has a lot to be digested and understood. It would be nice if you expand more on the theme of superposition.

    This guy thinks that a mathematical formula is a "description" of what, to us normal folks, is just a spring doing what springs do!

    I used to explain this effect to my son 40 years ago, when I did a wheel spin in my car and the back end always pulled one way.

    Easy to understand... The spring is a twisted objekt. If you pull it it will turn around and by doing multiple motions it stacks and more and more energy goes into rotation energy. And finally the motion converted nearly fully it goes around the other way.

    3:00 I think we have a very different idea about what completely stops means.
