    Foucault Pendulums probably are my favourite science experiment - how amazing is it that someone figured out how to watch the world turn just by watching a pendulum for a long time?

    Lets decompress the video for a minute. At 3:07 Kurtis appears in frame with a clock in the background. The time being shown as around 5:50 a.m. At 3:10 Kurtis leaves frame with the clock showing the time of around 6:15 a.m. That is around 25 mins of real world time needed to capture enough frames for a 3 sec scene. Just think about that every time Kurtis appears on screen doing a little skit. It took him 10 of mins to hours of siting in place, making small minuet movements to give the sense of motion in the final product. On top of this there is the very small window to act out each scene. He may have had 28 hours in total to shoot everything but when scenes take hours to shoot, you don't get many do overs. He had to be on-point almost every time with near zero mistakes. That is an amazing level of planing and foresight. This is dedication to a demonstration if I've every scene it. A truly amazing video sir. I salute you.

      Here at the University of Technology and Sciences (NTNU) in Trondheim, Norway, we also have a pendulum. It has lots of small metal pegs, and it kicks over one roughly every 15 minutes, making a great jarring sound throughout the building!
      Our pendulum also has the electromagnet at the bottom, it is visible and has an indicator LED that shows when it is active.

    Pendulum day= 32 hours 35 minutes 12.37 seconds

    • @MCMaterac
      @MCMaterac 3 года назад +2

      @@37rainman Exactly. Btw, has anyone tested the pendulum at the Equator? If my math is right, that'd give a drift of ~1° per 2.5 days from the Earth's revolution. Very slow, but with a pendulum like one in this video should be detectable I suppose.

    • @37rainman
      @37rainman 3 года назад

      @@MCMaterac First, the earth moves just a tad under 1 deg each day, not each 2.5 days. But really, you are not visualizing this situation very well if you think that situation could be demod on the equator. The fact is, it could easier be demod by a pendulum on the pole, if it could be demod at all.
      But, to go further: At, say, i degree above the equator, the rate of turn would be very close to 15 deg x cos(90deg - 1 deg) = 0.261 deg per day. By your reasoning, one could use a pendulum to demo that in 4 days the pend would move 1 deg. I can assure you that at that close to they equator you will demo nothing at all. Except the fact that a pendulum cannot demo rotation that close to the equator. The rotation of earth will not overpower the several other influences.
      And finally, if revolution can be demod, it IS demod. If it wasnt revolving, the period would be 24 hrs. It is revolving, and the period is about 23 hrs 56 min. Again, can a pend demo that small difference?? Maybe. Might be a subject to research, but i doubt it.

    • @MCMaterac
      @MCMaterac 3 года назад

      ​@@37rainman Well... it's the other way round: ~23h 56 min (~0.99727 days) is from rotation alone. Any star other than the sun makes the full circle in that period. 24h is rotation + revolution. A not so important detail, but that's how it is.
      Edit: Ok, I've wanted to point out You forgot to consider the axial tilt. My calculation goes like:
      the period for equator is 8766.15 h / sin(0+23.44°) ≈ 22 037 h per whole rotation, so ~61.21 h per 1°...
      ... and wanted to point out Your "just a tad under 1 deg each day" rate would be correct for the axial tilt of 90°, however, I've just realized that would require one side of the Earth locked at the sun (e.g. the South Pole always facing it directly).
      The calculation I made above would be correct if the Earth's axial tilt was constant from the sun's perspective (which of course isn't the case - that'd mean no seasons and constant day on a one pole / constant night on the other). The tilt doesn't change for an outside observer, so the pendulum can't be affected by it.

      Second: A lot of flat earthers deserve compassion and patience and educational experiments. - But some seem to have an agenda by spreading it by all means and with a lot of money. And I don't understand what that agenda could be.

In the exhibit there, we have metal poles around the sphere, such that you can see the ball progress since the morning, when someone resets the pins to an upright position. Some times, if you are lucky, you can be walking past as the sphere hits a pin. Fun stuff!

    Great video and the dedication you put in there, namely to camp on the floor and do this all in timelapse for 33 hours, is just awesome!
    Just as a side note:
    It's not quite true that the Foucault pendulum was the first experiment to demonstrate the rotation of the Earth: There were experiment dropping steel balls down high towers in Italy by Guglielmini (1789) and mine shafts in Germany by Benzenberg ( 1804) and Reich (1831). The measured deflection of the falling ball from the vertical was exactly of the magnitude predicted by Newton, Hooke, Olbers and Gauss.
    But this is all much less impressive that watching a pendulum swing with mindboggling zen-like slowness.
