  • track material is easy to work with and cheap. it is called shelf bracket tracks or shelf uprights. I have seen various hardware stores and building supply stores carry it, one company that makes it is Rubbermaid. E5 shelf upright. available at Home Depot, Last time I checked, Lowes does not carry it
    www.homedepot.com/p/Rubbermai...
    Introduction song. is an Apple jingle found in the iMovie media files, the title is called "catwalk, medium"
    For more information and explanations on any of the tracks demonstrated in this video, see the following posting.

    One last note, I've had some comments on me mispronouncing height as heighth. My possible responses:
    1. sometimes I get nervous in front of the camera and have moments where my brain shuts down.
    2. We grew up pronouncing it that way.
    3. We all make mistakes.....but is it really a mistake ?
    4.. Merriam Webster dictionary to my rescue- Heighth- expressed as a dialectal variant of the word height. Part that rises or extends upwards, the highest part

      No lmao, because these balls are only animated by gravity, while your cab is animated by your engine, and while ofc gravity still has effect on it, it doesn't changes your cab speed. What I mean is that wether you go up or down, you'll still go at 50MPH, and you could even go faster on a straight line w/ no ups and downs becuz these wouldn't "disturb" you.

      yes he does........but he didn't explain it at all in this vid..........& no, circular(arcs) tracks don't have that property........its ONLY the "trace" of a cycloid (half brachistochrone or tautochrone) that has the property of equal times for any/all displacement distances as well as being the overall "fastest" path.......btw the circular path of a pendulum actually isn't isochronous(Galileo Vs. Bernoulli & Huygens I think) ........but for "small angles"(arcs) that discrepancy is typically negligible.......btw if that track is just an arc then its just that the difference(in time) must be in like only mili seconds at that scale & you just can't notice it........just how the cycloid trace looks quite similar to an arc(only a subtle visual difference)....but I HIGHLY doubt that(though I never did a physical comparison experiment nor even made my own tracks)....but even if that is the case its an injustice not to mention cycloid traces/curves. ....but in any case its all quite interesting & non-intuitive......which is why I said it deserves its own video.

    • @itsblack2321
      @itsblack2321 Před 6 lety +1

      realcygnus I'm pretty sure he uses the arc track, and didn't mention the negligible difference you mentioned. His track doesn't look like a brachistochrone, but I may be wrong.

    • @realcygnus
      @realcygnus Před 6 lety

      thats fine..... it ain't no thing at all.....if we learn something/anything then "its all good"! right ?......I'm quite certain(though only like 90+%ish ?)....... & kinda just prompting him to expand on it, even if only slightly.......it could be that the difference in this(arc Vs. cycliod trace track) case is also "negligible" at perhaps small scales? (like a pendulum not being truly isochronous but "close enough" @ "small" angles to make clocks).......in which case I'm technically wrong..... but the FACT is that its cycloid traces that "precisely" have such(as demonstrated) properties & warranted mentioning imo....also his main audience is likely grade or high school & so he may have just left it "open" intentionally so as not to confuse anyone.....whats really amazing is that Newton(& others) Nailed the exact mathematical descriptions/solutions to such things hundreds of years ago !....& that we now have the nearly "instant" & abundant resources that we do.

      Thanks, x9x9x9x9x9, I do enjoy doing youtube and I realize that my videos are a bit simple compared to the big numbers guys, but my first thoughts are that I still love the classroom. This is my 41st year of teaching and hope to do at least one more, after that we'll see what can happen. I'm happy to share my ideas with anyone that has an interest in science and have had several smaller channels contact me and ask before using my information or parts of my video in theirs. Steve is actually the only big numbers guy on youtube that has shown the same courtesy. I know he's had a number of TV programs on science and has one now called DIY SCI. It should be interesting, my school students entered a contest that his television program is hosting on Newton's 3rd law, they should announce the winners in a week or two. we'll see what happens. I appreciate your comments and thanks for watching, I've gotten off to a slow start with videos this year but I think I have a good set of ideas that I want to tackle and am trying to get back to posting regularly again.

      Simple is good!
      As you are a teacher, I am pretty sure I do not need to tell you tht first one needs to learn to walk and then he can learn how to run. In fact all those "simple" demonstrations remind me on my own physics class when I was at an age of 12 and had the big luck of having a teacher demonstrating things to us instead of just writing formulas on a blackboard. No text book can replace the experience of hearing - or better said "not hearing" - a ringing alarm clock (you know the old classical ones) in a glas compartment when air gets pumped out. Simple? For todays standards: yes. But it is something, you will never forget.
