Several of you have pointed out that, at 3:08, my magnetic field doesn't include the return arrows that exist within the bar magnet shown at 2:52. I'm well aware of this. The animation glitched whenever I tried to include them and they weren't important for the point I was making. The video was _already_ a week late and it wasn't worth trying to get it to work when I could just leave a black space in the field instead.
@@dangriff12 From Wikipedia: "neodymium magnet (also known as NdFeB, NIB or Neo magnet), the most widely used[1] type of rare-earth magnet, is a permanent magnet made from an alloy of neodymium, iron and boron to form the Nd2Fe14B tetragonal crystalline structure." So neodymium magnets are not just neodymium, they are an alloy that forms a crystal that is magnetic.
I'm going to take the narcissistic crazy high road - If I didn't notice it it's not worth noticing. Now, back to normal - I really appreciate all your work. Thank you.
5 years of Engineering studies, 4 semesters to painfully understand these concepts and you did the job in 7 minutes ! Superb video and nice conclusion.
@hama prgasc I know Electromagnetism but my enthousiasm came from the way Nick explain them so briefly and straigth to the point. I am impressed you study Electromagnetism in high school. But in my memories, classical electromagnetism need prior a solid knowledge in calculus and I didn't find it so easy to understand at the time...
No man I am in just 12th and I understood these concepts very well the need is just learning your textbooks carefully . No doubt for peoples with no background of science this is the best channel ever 👍👍👍👍 and oh yeah this is my mom's gmail account ok

Wow. Your “all magnets are electromagnets” explanation was absolutely stellar. I feel like when I got my best maths teacher to date after almost failing end of year exams, and then suddenly getting 90% tests, because the lady actually took the time to explain things.
Feynman got very angry when asked on magnetism , but did not think us mere mortals could grasp the electron's spin and so witheld his answer , yet the Asylum gave a nice though short answer which I hope can be amplified . Great video .
Hello! I've always struggled with physics until a friend introduced me to your channel. I'm currently studying for the physics part of the medicine entry exam and you're the only reason why I'm managing to get more then 2-3 points at a time. Thank you so much, I love your content and please keep it up! You're amazing :)
Glad I could help!! 🤓 I used to teach university-level intro physics courses (in the U.S.) where quite a few students were preparing for the MCAT. It was part of my job to prepare them for the physics stuff.
"yes, in a lifetime of millions of years, the last stage takes days" what I never see is a video, even a simple one, describing this timeline of the life of a star.... I hope you'll do one someday. Other channels... guided me here, but yet you seem like a friend from university explaining things at the pub, without saying lies or omitting things... GOOD WORK NICK!
Wish i could like more than once to support you! Please don´t ever stop making videos! You are better than all teachers I have had so far. Keep spreading the knowledge!
Love your work so much! I go in to so many videos thinking I understand the underlying science but after seeing your video I realize how hazy it really was and your video made more of a clear picture.
This guy never takes anything for granted. He always gets to the root of it and makes it practically relatable. Even when the concepts are hypothetical and mathematical, he discusses them while pointing to the relevance they hold to everyday reality.. Unlike in most schools where every lesson begins with an unquestionable assumption and ends with an irrefutable conclusion.
Interesting video, as always. I wonder why you didn’t mention something regarding magnetism that really blew my mind when I found out: the fact that magnetism can actually be regarded as a consequence of applying special relativity to a moving electrostatic charge.
You explain things in ways easy to understand and also go deeper in some ways than some other sources I've watched and read into why stuff is the way it is. Bravo.
6:21 You can also expose the material to a very powerful electromagnet to convince it to line up it's atomic domains. Fun fact, if you want to demagnetize a metal that was made into a magnet this way, just hit it really hard or expose it to rapidly alternating magnetic fields.
Cant thank you enough for this Nick! I was a physics dunce at school... sitting at a hard bench sleeping on my elbows while a husk of a teacher tried to explain with no diagrams etc etc - I now rule the electromagnetic universe and all in a few easy to follow steps!!! Still in my PJs with hair standing on end... Now wearing the badge!!!
You are doing what my high school, college, degree teachers couldnt do. They just tell u to byheart the stuff(especially math) so that u can pass in the exams. Sir you have my Respect...
Wow I have a really tough week but tomorrow I don't have to learn a lot, so I thought it would be awsome to watch a great physics video, and than I've noticed that you and Space Time uploaded😍
Nick, your videos are beyond expression. I'm a huge fan of your work and thoroughly appreciate all the effort you put into each clip. Keep it going man!
That was also a short video with density of info, ☺️excellently explained on the crucial points. A great short review of science on a topic. Greatly helpful and interesting thanks
Excellent :) I Really Enjoyed This Video ..... And The One Before This ...... And The One Before That ...... And The One Before Them ...... :D Short Version .... All Of Them :)
You are my idol sir . Thanks from my heart concept is now crystal clear . I wanna change your title of this video that - " Who heck has disliked this video !"
I remember watching Feynman explaining once, that the force we feel when trying to push opposite sides of two magnets together, is the same force that we feel when we try to push our finger through the table. But because of atom alignment we feel this force sooner in magnets. Is this accurate?
Technically, yes, the electric force (finger on the table) and the magnetic force are really just the same type of force: the "electromagnetic force." The problem I have with that explanation is that non-physicists don't think of those things as the same, so it can be a bit misleading without further explanation.
Hi from Italy! I really appreciate your sense of humor and the way you let us “crazies” to approach the unveiled secrets of science. Your channel is very “attractive”, in a permanent way. Can you give an explanation on how come when we “scratch” a magnet 🧲 onto an iron bar we can “transfer” to it magnetic properties? Sorry for my bad english.
Nick, I always get a charge out of your videos (pun intended), and if you take a pole (pun intended), all responses will be positive (again, pun intended). Thanks for keeping us crazies informed and entertained!
Some months ago, I saw this video. Today, my 9yo nephew asked me "How do magnets work?", and thanks to remembering parts of your video I managed to explain the basic stuff with a piece of string (wire) and a bowl of tomatoes (Fe atoms). This has to count as some sort of success on your part as well! Keep up the great work :-)
Not really. Neutron doesn't have electric charge, but it generates a magnetic field. Magnetism is about the alignment of spin/magnetic moment in a current or in a particle...
Cameron McHenry Yes, but their electric charges cancel eachother out - just like magnetic moments of electron pairs on a single orbital. What matters, is the magnetic moment (spin) of neutron, as a whole particle and not the spins or electric charges of quarks within it. Besides electrons in an orbital don't create electric currents. Their momentums and locations are undetermined, until they are being measured, so it's not right to apply the Right Hand Rule or EM induction... And one more thing: magnetic fields in motion, create electric currents, just like electric currents produce magnetic fields. Both, electric and magnetic fields are equivalent in the EM induction - and it's wrong to say, that electric charge is the SOURCE of magnetism in matter The only valid understanding of EM, is to see the difference between electric charge and quantum spin - which are two, different properties of subatomic particles. Electric and magnetic fields don't interact with eachother in their static forms - what shows, that those forces are not just "two sides of one coin", but completely different aspects of matter. The only proper explanation of the source of magnetism, is to include the alignment of spins/magnetic moments of particles in a current or in atoms, which make a magnetic domain. Magnetic fields are all about alignment - just as on the quantum scale, so for the Universe at macroscales. In galactic magnetic fields, all star systems are more or less aligned. In stellar magnetic fields, planets are magnetically aligned with the central star(s). In a pernament magnet, all the magnetic domains are aligned. In a magnetic domain, all the atoms are magnetically aligned. AND SO in an electric current, all electrons are aligned perpendicullary to the electric moment - and this is why, currents of particles create magnetic fields... This way is MUCH more simple to understand and to connect it with the other forces... Electromagnetism (EM induction) is the result of moving fields: both, electric and magnetic ones.
After "hold onto your butts" we laughed so hard our sides ached (and the girlie's **ts went smickity-smack) so good thing you showed us Felix The Wonderful Cat.
But then what is this thing with motion that it is serving as a link between electricity and magnetism.....I mean why moving charges have magnetic properties......and also does relativity come into play, like does moving with charge effect my measurement of the strength of magnetism(my intuition is that it should not but kindly explain) Thanks for existing.
My understanding is that relativity has everything to do with why moving charges generate the magnetic force. Imagine two conducting wires lying parallel to each other. They are composed of positively charged protons in their nuclei and and equal number of negatively charged electrons surrounding the nuclei. As there are an equal number of electrons and protons in these wires there is no net electric charge and therefore no force between the wires. Now start a current in both wires moving in opposite directions. Imagine that you are an electron in one of the wires. From your “point of view” you are standing still as are all the electrons in your wire. If you look over to the flow of electrons in the other wire you see them moving, therefore, per relativity, the distances between these moving particles would be measured by you to be contracted in the direction of their motion. This makes the total negative electric charge in the neighboring wire appear to be denser and therefore you and all your fellow electrons in your wire would experience a repulsive electric force. The electrons in the other wire experience the same thing and the two wires are pushed apart. We call this force, a result of their relative motion, “magnetism” but it is still just the electrostatic force of particles with an electric charge. Note that you, as an electron, would also see the distance between the positively charged protons contract but since they are, from you viewpoint, contracting the same in both wires they contribute no net large scale effect. Now imagine the currents flowing in the same direction. Now the electrons in the other wire are traveling the same as you and therefore appear stationary and there is no contraction between them from your viewpoint and no “magnetic” force. On the other hand, the protons see the electrons in the opposite wire moving and therefore contracted with an accompanying “densification” of negative charge which causes them to be attracted. The two wires will now move towards each other. It was a revelation to me when I first learned that magnetism is a result of moving charges. There is an often told story in biographies about Einstein that when he was a small boy his father gave him a magnetic compass 🧭 and that he was utterly fascinated by the mysterious invisible force that could move something without being in direct physical contact and that he was determined to find an explanation. I think it is absolutely marvelous that although his primary goal in developing special relativity was not to explain magnetism it nonetheless happened to fulfill his childhood dream by also solving that riddle.
4:22 do we know what the magnetic field of the orbitals look like? If angular momentum of an electron is is a vector, does it's direction chemistry with the shape of the electron's orbital? Or is it independent?
"Sort of." Spin is weird. It shows up as an angular momentum, and in normal situations we typically define (angular) momentum as the (angular) velocity multiplied by the mass. Yet the spin is neither generated by (real) movement nor is it related to the mass of the particles -- an electron and its cousin the tau particle have exactly the same spin even though the tau is like 3000x more massive. Nobody knows how the hell that works -- spin is one gigantic mystery in general -- but its the way the universe works. We can measure it with insane accuracy and even use it in our devices, but we're totally stumped in terms of actually understanding the "why" questions.
You don’t have it quite right. It’s not the movement of charges. It’s more accurate to say it’s due to the momentum of the charges (electrons). The property of spin is not really movement, but it is momentum.
@@cjheaford That's exactly my point. It registers as an angular momentum, but our (normal) definition of angular momentum is based on movement and rotation -- two things that spin isn't, and mass -- which spin isn't tied to. That is, we have absolutely no intuitive / macroscopic way of relating to spin. Surre we can measure it. We know what units it shows up as in the equations. We just have absolutely no idea _why_ it has those units.
The other 2 commenters have it right but would just like to add in, it is not a charge such as electric charge to power something. You can not hook up a wire to each end like a battery. But like a battery when it gets over heated you can also kill the angular momentum by heat. This creates a random structure to the atoms instead of a uniform direction. Thus allowing the magnet to lose its "charge".
I accidentally pressed the back button just right before the "... and until next time, remember, it's okay to be a little crazy". I couldn't stand living on like this, so, well, here I am. Great video!
| V=IR, V is directly proportional to i. And, I=Q/T V directly proportional to Q But,from V =W/Q V =1/Q >>>>> So, V is inversely proportional to charge Q. it is has some contradiction. _ IN potential due to a point charge Derivation V proportional To Q. And in capacitance Q=CV .Same as above proportionality. I don't understand why V=1/Q.
At least part of your problem is equating all that Q's to each other. They're not all the same. Remember, during an interaction, there are _two_ charges: one affecting the field and one affected by the field.
I'm so facinated by eletromagnetism, eletrical engeneering and stuff! Lately i'm getting used to quantum-eletrodynamics, could you do a video about it? i would love it!
0:51 why do moving charged particles create magnetic field? 4:45 what makes electron, with that properties, a magnet? 6:28 ''magnets are what you get when charges move'', and what is that you get?
_"Why do moving charged particles create magnetic field?"_ They just do. It's an observation we've built our model around. _"What makes electron, with that properties, a magnet?"_ They just do. It's an observation we've built our model around. _" 'Magnets are what you get when charges move,' and what is that you get?"_ Magnets. Magnets are what you get. All magnets are the result of moving electric charge.
@@ScienceAsylum thank you very much for answering. It's just hard for me to get my head around it, for me it seems like answer for question "what is magnet? " is "magnet is magnet". Maybe when I sleep it off it will become clearer, because for now my head hurts **smiley face** Thanks again very much. I'm huge fan of your videos.
Hund's Rule keeps them from occupying the same orbital until all the orbitals in that set are full, but that doesn't actually affect their spin orientation. If they're alone in the orbital, then can have whatever orientation they'd like.
I'm still trying to rap my head around what the hell all those electrons are doing in my guitar amp... Not to mention AC and DC both running through the same wire at the same time. Sheesh... Mind bogglingly crazy! Great video!

There is an often told story in biographies about Einstein that when he was a small boy his father gave him a magnetic compass 🧭 and that he was utterly fascinated by the mysterious invisible force that could move something without being in direct physical contact and that he was determined to find an explanation. I think it is absolutely marvelous that although his primary goal in developing special relativity was not to explain magnetism it nonetheless happened to fulfill his childhood dream by also solving that riddle.
Oh yes :- "On the electrodynamics of Moving bodies".
I love the way he presents and make to comprehend easy.
I think this is the first video i've watched from "The Science Asylum" and understood the majority of the concept.
Another fascinating topic as always explained in a comprehensible way. Thanks for the upload...
This is next level
By far the most fun to watch explainer of science. How can we get your videos out to more people? Does Bill Nye know about you??
Bill Nye does not know about me, but some of the bigger science RUclipsrs know about me since I met some of them this year.
You are that type of meme which everyone loves.
really like your videos
finally understood electromagnetic induction briefly
We'll hopefully be covering induction in more detail later on.
Magnets are so coolest thing ever. It feels like magic.
To people who think the Earth is flat it *is* magic
you have very deep understanding to very complicated notions.. why don't you work in particle accelerator or any other fancy place??
Biggest Reason: I'm not interested in experimental/practical physics. I'm pure theoretical.
My favorite line: “Laplace was a BAMF.”
I did my share of learning Laplace transforms in college to completely agree. 😊
They are fuckin magic
We love your Videos Nick, greetings from Vienna
Laplace is cool.
4:22 do we know what the magnetic field of the orbitals look like?
If angular momentum of an electron is is a vector, does it's direction chemistry with the shape of the electron's orbital? Or is it independent?
Someone should link this video to Insane Clown Posse. They have been asking this question for years.
This is an absolutely superb explanation, but I have to say also that the humour is fantastic, 2:16 cracked me to pieces 😄
Wow! Permanent magnets and electromagnets both exist s due to movement of charges
"Sort of." Spin is weird. It shows up as an angular momentum, and in normal situations we typically define (angular) momentum as the (angular) velocity multiplied by the mass. Yet the spin is neither generated by (real) movement nor is it related to the mass of the particles -- an electron and its cousin the tau particle have exactly the same spin even though the tau is like 3000x more massive.
Nobody knows how the hell that works -- spin is one gigantic mystery in general -- but its the way the universe works. We can measure it with insane accuracy and even use it in our devices, but we're totally stumped in terms of actually understanding the "why" questions.
You don’t have it quite right. It’s not the movement of charges. It’s more accurate to say it’s due to the momentum of the charges (electrons).
The property of spin is not really movement, but it is momentum.
@@cjheaford That's exactly my point. It registers as an angular momentum, but our (normal) definition of angular momentum is based on movement and rotation -- two things that spin isn't, and mass -- which spin isn't tied to.
That is, we have absolutely no intuitive / macroscopic way of relating to spin. Surre we can measure it. We know what units it shows up as in the equations. We just have absolutely no idea _why_ it has those units.
altrag
I know altrag. I was addressing the original poster, not you. You had it spot-on.
The other 2 commenters have it right but would just like to add in, it is not a charge such as electric charge to power something. You can not hook up a wire to each end like a battery. But like a battery when it gets over heated you can also kill the angular momentum by heat. This creates a random structure to the atoms instead of a uniform direction. Thus allowing the magnet to lose its "charge".
Nice work Nick
*Sees and clicks new S.A. video
*Clicks Like button

I accidentally pressed the back button just right before the "... and until next time, remember, it's okay to be a little crazy".
I couldn't stand living on like this, so, well, here I am. Great video!
| V=IR, V is directly proportional to i.
And, I=Q/T
V directly proportional to Q But,from V =W/Q
V =1/Q >>>>> So, V is inversely proportional to charge Q. it is has some contradiction.
_ IN potential due to a point charge Derivation V proportional To Q. And in capacitance Q=CV .Same as above proportionality. I don't understand why V=1/Q.
At least part of your problem is equating all that Q's to each other. They're not all the same. Remember, during an interaction, there are _two_ charges: one affecting the field and one affected by the field.
Always cause for excitement when you post a new one. Thanks!
The first time I opened my mind, it was because of magnets.
I'm so facinated by eletromagnetism, eletrical engeneering and stuff! Lately i'm getting used to quantum-eletrodynamics, could you do a video about it? i would love it!
Hopefully, I'll do a proper series on quantum mechanics one of these days.
@@ScienceAsylum nice! thanks for responding
I don’t even watch these now before I click like. I know anything from the asylum will be good!
Thanks man, love your videos! Always been confused by electricity and magnetism
F***ing magnets - how do they work?

Didn't know that song. Btw, why is the link youtu.be and not youtube ?
@@thedebatehitman, why did I click that link? It's like magic, bruh, you say something sucks and people want to see anyways.
TheSamsanca, it's just a trick RUclips uses to shorten links. All the video links I put in my video descriptions are youtu.be
So glad this channel came up during a search. Awesome. Sorry I'm late...lol.
The electromagnetic force is one of the forces that remind us that we don't need a creator to describe the universe.
Great video as always!! Simple and Lucid !! 😃
haha..visual approximation........you are funny.
0:51 why do moving charged particles create magnetic field?
4:45 what makes electron, with that properties, a magnet?
6:28 ''magnets are what you get when charges move'', and what is that you get?
_"Why do moving charged particles create magnetic field?"_
They just do. It's an observation we've built our model around.
_"What makes electron, with that properties, a magnet?"_
They just do. It's an observation we've built our model around.
_" 'Magnets are what you get when charges move,' and what is that you get?"_
Magnets. Magnets are what you get. All magnets are the result of moving electric charge.
@@ScienceAsylum thank you very much for answering. It's just hard for me to get my head around it, for me it seems like answer for question "what is magnet? " is "magnet is magnet".
Maybe when I sleep it off it will become clearer, because for now my head hurts **smiley face**
Thanks again very much. I'm huge fan of your videos.
@@kidamkolkoznam To _really_ understand electromagnetism, you need Einstein's special relativity: ruclips.net/video/Ii7rgIQawko/видео.html
Mathematics is sick
GOOD JOB, YOUR VIDEOS IS AMAZING, I LIKE SO MUCH
The 4 electrons were of same spin because of Hund's Rule.... Am I correct?
Also what did u mean when you said "atoms line up" At 5:56 ?
..?
Hund's Rule keeps them from occupying the same orbital until all the orbitals in that set are full, but that doesn't actually affect their spin orientation. If they're alone in the orbital, then can have whatever orientation they'd like.
By "atoms line up," I mean that the electrons have made them magnets and those magnetic fields line up.
Really helpful and intuitive!
Don't stop this topic. I'm fascinated with magnets.
I'm still trying to rap my head around what the hell all those electrons are doing in my guitar amp... Not to mention AC and DC both running through the same wire at the same time. Sheesh... Mind bogglingly crazy! Great video!
I will definitely be getting into that soon. Electron "flow" is really interesting.
@@ScienceAsylum KOO! You are a champ my friend! Sometimes it takes a quantum physicist to explain wire it's doing that, and watt the resistance to understand it is all about. Thanks again ohms, always a pleasure watching your videos. Can't get enough of your crazy stuff. ;)
