    I really love how you're a middle school teacher, and even after class is over for the day, you are still teaching others voluntarily and for free. Teachers don't get enough credit for what they do as it is, and yet you still go above and beyond, even when you already put your days work in. Bravo, man.

    I’m 23 - never really paid attention in high school physics, always shunned it... but it’s 4AM after a very long shift and your videos still have me absolutely captivated and craving to learn more. Phenomenal teaching methods... expressing concepts in a way that is both informative and visually beautiful.
    Hope you keep it up!

    Thank you very much especially for this video. I am a Physics teacher in Germany and I just did this Experiment with my students today. We don't have the Equipment at the School to do Lissajous-figures electronically (with different frequencies in certain ratios), but this showed me a way to do it simply mechanically - and with a lot of fun. Also material that is cheaply provided for several Groups at the same time. My students are a last-year high School class with Focus on science. So given a description they have to set up the Experiment themselves. The Task was also combined with simulations on a CAS graphical calculator. (Sorry for the capitals - the Computer keeps thinking I'm writing German, not English.)

      Hi Ursula, Glad it can help. I've always enjoyed seeing these results done a number of ways. IF you go back in my videos, I did a similar one that captured the patterns digitally using a cheap point and shoot camera and a small LED light and another one that uses a laser pointer bouncing the beam from rotating mirrors. I haven't posted them but I have a couple harmonic drawing tables that draw the patterns with a pen, I will eventually post when I get to it. thanks for posting your comment, always nice to hear when someone else has tried a demonstration

      The gravitic force is indeed proportional to mass and since: a= F/m therefore the gravitic acceleration is not dependent on mass.
      Ps: I'm studying physics at college, and I learned this very thing (pendulums and Lissajous patterns) last semester, so I know for a fact that I'm right.

Obviously, someone who's already set up a pendulum and launched it along all sorts of curves *might* have seen things that *I*, in my 1-room appartment, couldn't.

    • @anthocyaninin
      @anthocyaninin 7 лет назад +3

      The change in mass doesn't directly affect the period of the pendulum, but the change in the center of mass increases the length of the pendulum, which increases the period.
      The heavier the container, the smaller the affect of the draining sand. With 500 mL plastic container that is 20 cm tall with negligible mass and a 2 m pendulum, the period will change by up to 2% as the center of mass moves 8 cm away from the initial center of mass.
      This also impacts the Lissajous curve, as an initial ratio of 2:1 would drift toward 1.95:1 if the center of mass moves 5 cm lower (1.93:1 for 8 cm).

      This demonstration and that student's comment are good partners for each other. A line has to start somewhere. Thoughts and learning start somewhere too. People are similar to the pendulum- the paths we take begin simply and become elaborate with time and outside influence. Allow people, especially young people, that starting point without too much judgement- you began somewhere simple, too.

      @gorillaau 7 лет назад +2

      Bruce Yeany Its been a while since I was last in school, but I thought the swing (or period) of a pendulum depends on its length only. Or are we talking the amount of time for the pendulum to come to a stop? Supposing you were able to replace the sand at the same rate that it leaks out of the bottle.

    • @YeanyScience
      @YeanyScience  7 лет назад

      Hello gorillaau, yes and yes. for the most part it is the length that determines the period, that and gravity. Interesting enough the sand pendulum will slow down a lot quicker when sand runs out of it than when the when the hole is sealed. Friction would have a greater affect as the pendulum bob gets lighter and I would guess that some of it's momentum leaves with the sand.
