  • Richard Phillips Feynman was an American physicist known for the path integral formulation of quantum mechanics, the theory of quantum electrodynamics and the physics of the super fluidity of super cooled liquid helium, as well as work in particle physics (he proposed the Parton model). For his contributions to the development of quantum electrodynamics, Feynman was a joint recipient of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1965, together with Julian Schwinger and Sin-Itiro Tomonaga. Feynman developed a widely used pictorial representation scheme for the mathematical expressions governing the behavior of subatomic particles, which later became known as Feynman diagrams. During his lifetime and after his death, Feynman became one of the most publicly known scientists in the world.

    When Feynman was talking about the force of electricity being greater than the force of gravity he was trying to explain the difference in scale (e.g. a number with 38 or 40 zeros behind it). I heard another person try to explain the difference in scale in this way. _Basically the electrons on that comb are able to over power the force of gravity generated by the _*_entire planet_*_ ._

      Given two particles the same distance away, mass 1kg and charge 1C each. The electrical interaction will be ~10^40 greater than the gravitational one. This difference is caused by the different constants in coulomb's law and newton's law. 1/4pi*ɛ is much much greater than G the universal gravitational constant.

It takes a true genius to explain complicated things in the simplest terms, and he was definitely one of them.

    Don't underestimate how difficult it is to just sit and speak continuously about physics without misspeaking from time to time. This is an unimaginably brilliant man. He's not confused..he just has trouble translating sometimes. He meant motions within the copper wires. The potential field is what initially drives the electrons. The magnetic field is just a relativistic effect of the moving charges, but what he is saying is right too.(aside from the initial wording)

      He is probably referring to a self-excited generator, which makes its own magnetic field. Practical versions of those machines do require iron yokes, though. He is correct that one could make a self-excited machine just from a conducting metal like copper, but it would probably require an impractically high frequency of rotation to be efficient, if it could be made efficient, at all. He was not an engineer, so to him the theoretical possibility was exciting enough, he didn't have to calculate a feasible design to have fun with the idea. Having said that, he surely could have, had he wanted to.

    The best way I can explain this to you is to imagine the mechanical system as a logarithmic decaying curve in where at small values of X, which we will call distance, the efficiency, Y, will be higher than using electricity. Examples are your car. However, AC electricity, which we will imagine as an exponential curve, will over take the logarithmic curve at large values of distance X, which means its efficiency is much better.

So we can't say that an electron really flyes in a circle, we can rather say that most of its time it stays inside some region of space which can be called its orbit. The functions that describe the probabilities of an electron to be somewhere satisfy some equations. But I don't know where these equations come from, sorry.
