Little did Sir Michael Faraday know that, one day, 200 years later, the results of developing his discoveries would allow people from all over the world to watch reconstructions of his ground-breaking experiments simultaneously. He would be astounded if he could be here to witness our technology. Thanks to all of you for explaining, demonstrating and presenting these historic events. 🙂👍
FANTASTIC content. Thank you so much for bringing us this; much of it new, even to us Faraday fans. Case in point: that voltaic pile assembled by Volta and then gifted to Faraday for his own personal use is, for me, a literal sacred relic!
Love those visits in other people workshops and laboratories. Next time, when we will have a science stand during our local festive, i will prepare a voltaic pile for kids to build :D Thank you!
Really enjoyed this lecture! In the modern world of computer simulations and PowerPoint it is great to see hands on demonstrations of physical principles. Faraday, Maxwell, and Heaviside are science rock stars that created the modern world...
Just fabulous that these historic objects were used for demonstrations for so long. Better still that they were then reproduced so the demonstartions can continue while preserving the history.
Shame Mr Faraday and his wife Sarah's grave in High gate Cemetery hasn't been looked after like his possessions at the RI, I visited last year and he's up against the wall and his grave is badly overgrown and in poor condition.
Suggested is that the Royal Institute extend their focus by spending Institute funds, or organize volunteers to perpetually maintain Michael and Sarah Faraday's Grave site so as to display the proper respect due both of them.
Simply brilliant! Every concept should be shown with a demonstration. Start with the first invention and work our way to the present. Use mind mapping a little AI a touch of graphic art. Ask a couple of simple questions. What inventions have made the quality of life better without having significant negative effects? Could be split into different categories. Health, environment and so on.?✌️🙏
Somebody really should supply the basic parts and package them up and sell them as kids experiments. Somebody probably has but they could be done as a monthly subscription deal. Im sure you could find twelve ideas. They could include a small book or cards explaining the finer technical details. You could even have two or three price levels with cheaper components for the lower levels or better ones for a more higher priced subscription. (batteries not included, unless of course you are building one) I would have loved this as a kid. I would probably buy them even now at near 50.
@@spindoctor6385 I am a lot older than you. You set out an idea in some detail. You could create a kit yourself and offer it to local schools as a try out. If it takes off, you could carry it further. Faraday was making new discoveries when he was older than you. I am 78 and I am planning to do an MSc soon.
@@manuellayburr382 True, I was just using my age as an excuse. I am always full of ideas (good and bad) for other people. If this appeared somewhere in a year or two, it would not be the first time I have seen other people make $$ following through with their ideas that I also had and just let fade away. I really think this one could work. The component are all pretty cheap, the experiments can be fun for any kid that is school aged 6-17. Maybe it could also link to an app or a RUclips channel demonstrating how to put it all together, the theories behind it and different things to do with the finished product. I would be a bit torn on that though, half the purpose is to get kids away from the screens and actually building something. But it could generate more revenue and it advertises the product while the product advertises the channel. I would need somebody more photogenic than myself for the demos. Anyway I will stop rambling. Thanks mate.
Very interesting. This was all about magnetism and electricity. I am wondering can all this be explained by coulombs law and time dilation as some are trying to do with magnetism these days?
I wonder, was there any use for copper wire before they discovered electricity. I mean there were no lights, motors so nobody would use copper wire for current. I guess there was metal wire for things like fences but not insulated. They had to "invent" that too to make those coils. I think he hand-wrapped it in silk, is that correct ? What metal did he use. The wire ends looked black, was that silver ?
Copper is one of the easiest metals to work with. So I guess any application where you didn't need the strength of iron/steel, you would prefer copper. But I also can't think about any good reason for using copper wire. But copper would have been extremely easy to get hold of and turn into some kind of wire. For example, they were using copper sheets quite a bit for e.g. roofs and other coverings.
how can you say magnatism is the electron-spin and ind the ri monopoles video with felix flicker he said that it's not the electron-spin and we simply don't know where magnatism comes from... that's not science, that's guessing...

Absolutely fabulous - final a talk about Faraday that doesn't reduce this person to his "cage" ...
Fantastic demonstrations. Michael Faraday is a personal hero; I love to see that his work is still relevant today.
Thanks... That was nice. How lucky we are to have had an institute in pursuit of the natural way of things.
Faraday is a really interesting character in the annals of science history... Especially with the royal institute. Cool video!

Pptato battery? Lemon battery?
@@simonlinser8286zinc/copper/gatorade battery!
I read Faraday's biography many years ago, and became enamored! Since then he's been among my favorite people.
What’s the name of the biography? Love to give it a read
I don't remember. It was more than a decade ago.
Superb... Need more demos and lectures by Dr. David

Emocionante ver essa palestra....obrigado, RI....Incrível......Faraday é um exemplo imortal...de amor à ciência e ao trabalho científico!
So wonderful to see that all the electronic actions in our microchips derive from the slow, macro actions in these old coils and wires.
Just fabulous that these historic objects were used for demonstrations for so long. Better still that they were then reproduced so the demonstartions can continue while preserving the history.
Thanks for the interesting and enjoyable lecture!
My favorite is Faraday's cage against high voltage and against radio waves...

What a shame!

Graves are useless
Frankly, maintaining his laboratory possessions and teaching his findings is a far better way to honor the late scientist than maintaining a tomb.
Thank you sir for interesting lecture! Great heritage! We need to learn the past to be able to invent and push the boundaries forward!
Thank you Professor Rikkets, i would love you to be my teacher 🥸
Thankyou sir for showing that matters to me personally
You are awesome
Yes! It's so cool that Bill Coates built the induction ring! Love that dude.
Thankyou do much
When the museum talks to you.
Obrigada por dicas úteis e fáceis!!😊
Loving the Faraday emoji usage!
Clever dudes.

It interesting in away that we take for granted the batteries of today since they abundant
38:59 Priyadarshini clearly showed her Jugaad.
If the RI was the BBC, all that stuff would have gone in the bin years ago.

Aren't you somebody?
@@manuellayburr382 Nope, I am old. I used to be somebody.

What did Volta call his voltaic cell?
I would call it a ME cell.
Great lecture, the camera work could have been a bit better, dedicated close ups would have been a great addition.
The discoveries and innovations that the world is quite literally running on. Of course with the help of the great Tesla.

Today i have understood the right angle thumb rule
If this was new, how did they have powerful permanent magnets? How did they make them?
Please watch again and
PAY ATTENTION 😅
Love the video, very thankfull.
But why 720p tho 😉
Safety first, good to see, the gloves seems to be needed if you handle some chemicals
I think they are mostly to avoid damaging the historic artifacts.
Each item worth millions of pounds, no doubt about it.
electric motor was created not discovered.

This presenter is NOT the right guy for the job, no Ri. He’s not even British. Get real! This loses all credibility.
