Well, it confuses me. I had a hard time wrapping my brain around this one - before I read the comments. My head told me that simply switching the positions of these cans wouldn't change a thing. I had to try it out myself.
He never meassures the diameter of the lower can first. This he does with the top one second attempt. So I would have been more confused if he actually would have got the same meassurement on both occasions.
Trying to simplify this for those that are confused. The measurement increased because he effectively raised the ceiling and lowered the floor when moving the cans.
In the first position itâs the shortest distance btw the two cans and when you swap them it turns the distance into the maximum distance they can be apart. Itâs easier to understand if you think about the cans like bottom one is a âfloorâ and the top one is a âroofâ. The second measurement youâre lowering the âfloorâ and raising the âroofâ hence why you get a larger measurement. Iâm not the best at explaining but essentially all youâre doing is widening the gap between the cans. Just remember, the counter top is irrelevant, and youâll get it.
You obviously canât say why though otherwise you would have in your original comment. And now someone else we see this reply, explain why and then youâll see it and claim you knew all along. đ
It's simple math, Lets say Height of can = H Width of can = W Height of counter = C 1st Measurement = C + W - H 2nd Measurement = C + H - W and because H > W first measurement would be lesser than the second one.
@@yourenotthatguypal99 my friend, he's making the high point even higher and the low point even lower, of course the distance will be bigger. Watch it a couple of more times and you'll figure it out yourself.
In measuring 82 cm... The length of the bottom Can is not included but at second time the length of upper can in getting measured that's why it is more than first time.
When you lay down the can on the floor you automatically increase the distance from it to the one on top of the counter, at the same time when you stand up the can up top you have increased the distance between the tops of the two cans an additional couple of inches.
Speaks volumes about you inflated sense of self if you actually believe that the whole internet is confused by this. Hereâs a tip for you, the average person is actually not as dumb as you think, and you in fact have average intelligence and you are not some smart wonder kid. Just fyi.
Makes perfect sense. First you flip the cans towards eachother, next you flip them away. If the bottom can is upwards, and the top can is sideways, they are closer to eachother, if the bottom can is sideways, and the top can is upwards, they are fartherâŠ
That makes no sense!!!! Lol. For real. Itâs the same distance no matter which way. When you flip the top can up and the bottom can down it definitely should stay the same
Simple... C=counter height without any cans H = height of the can W=width of the can. What he measures is C+W-H = X C+H-W = Y Assume X = Y X-Y = 0 (C+W-H) - (C+H-W) = 0 2W - 2H = 0 So that Is only true, if the can as high as it is wide
Not sure what your getting at but by your two subs I wouldnât come on any CZcams page down playing anyone. Donât hate their grind because you donât have the same.
I feel bad for the state of peoples minds nowadays. My brother watched this for an hour. He still did not understand. I watched it once and understood fully
@sweet stuff when the top can is turned upright, you have now increased the distance between them. Then when the bottom can is turned on its side, you have now increased the distance between them again
Iâm a carpenter and I must admit this caught me out for a split second. Essentially heâs turned the whole span upside down, so when he was once measuring the top of the horizontal can he now needs to measure it from the bottom (the floor).
I still love this haha đ if you still don't understand how this works, it's because of the bottom floor starting point of the measurement. When you measure both, you are essentially only measuring the difference between the Width and Height of the can ! But adding in the counter/cabinet top area in the middle is what makes this soooooo confusing! It's because we don't understand what we are truly measuring.
Dude you increased the total distance. Here's the simple explanation without adding numbers into the mix. Top = sideways --> upright, you increase the distance upwards. Bottom = upright --> sideways, you increased the distance downwards. Learn what a datum is. You're using 2 different datums in this activity.
Suppose the can measures 10 tall by 5 wide and the counter measures 100. The top can adds to the 100 and the bottom can subtracts from the total. Bottom can on side: 100-5, +10 = 105 Bottom can upright: 100-10, +5 = 95
First measurements basically is Length of sink + horizontal can - vertical can Second measurement is Length of sink - horizontal can + vertical can The difference between the heights of the vertical and horizontal cans is greater then 2 to 1, so the calculations are different
@@agsplashpoolz think of the counter, it doesnât move, but the distance from the top of each can to the top of the counter will change when they move the cans
@@granta3044 meh not sure I agree with that at what point is it not just the schoolâs fault but your own as a parent? I went to public school and am certainly not an idiot though I had classmates who were. đ€·ââïž
After some braining I figured it out! When your raising to too can your extending the distance between the 2 points, then when you reduce the hight of the bottom can. Therfore making the distance longer!!!
Actually, itâs nothing to do with how often a person uses a tape measure. Distance boundaries are move further away from each other at both ends and apparently the internet thinks the distance should read the same? đ€·đ»ââïž
If the cabin is 90 cm high, and The horizontal can is 7 cm high, and The vertical can is 16 cm high, The first measure is 91-16+7=82. but the second time is 91-7+16=100
*The MATH comment* case 1: from bottom to top - you measure the height across the side of the desk/shelf thing(call it T) + height of can laying flat(Fh). case 2: from bottom to top - i) you measure the height from top of flat can to the point where shelf starts. let's define this as : remaining height (Rh) = standing can height(Sh) - Flat can height(Fh). ii) the height of table T iii) height of standing can (Sh) so we measure Rh + T + Sh.. the reason we get tricked is because we never measure the height of the bottom can... shifting both cans would only cancel each other if we were measuring from the bottom of the can on the floor! is that crt?
I honestly do not know that the confusion is about. There are two fixed points; the floor and the worktop. The first measurement is from a higher start point (in relation to the floor) to a lower point (in relation to the worktop). In the second measure you are starting lower (nearer to the floor) and ending higher (from the worktop). You are effectively lengthening the start and finish points.
a. Table's height = 100 b. Can's heighy = 20 c. Can's width = 10 Gap measurements on both methods: 1. a-b+c = 100-20+10= 90 2. a-c+b = 100-10+20= 110 Yes It is different... But I am still wondering WHY??????? Yes, why I just can't think that it's not the same...
If u actually think about it, he's increasing the height of the one on top, and increasing the distance between the top and bottom can by moving the lower can closer to the ground.
Bruh if the whole Internet is confused over this then our society as a whole has just gotten more stupid If ur turning the can on the table then ur increasing the height If ur turning the can on the floor horizontally then ur also increasing the distance Essentially, your making the can at the bottom closer to the floor and the can on the table closer to the ceiling It's as simple as it can get đ€Š (I love this channel tho don't get me wrong)
Except heâs not wrong because the bottom can is determining where the tape measure starts, so if its on its side the tape measure is starting closer to the floor along with measuring the full can distance that was not measured in the first measuring thus the large distance change its basic common sense Aaron I feel to see how even a child wouldnât understand this.
Unless the countertop is lowered as the bottom can was, the measurement should be very different. The top can was still sitting on the countertop, when the bottom can was flipped to its side..
In order for that to be the same the can on top of the ounter needs to be flipped from being on its side to being past the edge of the counter towards the floor. He is flipping to can on top of the counter upwards instead of downwards
And what is up with this word heighth? The âheightâ of something! Not the âheighthâ! My wifeâs family uses the latter and it sounds so strange to me!
You're not measuring from the floor to the top of the counter. You're starting off Measuring from the top of the can to the side of the can. When you flip them you are lowering your starting point and raising your ending point and vice versa
@@GavinColeX but the unit that the top can is on is staying at the same height the can on the floor is changing heights - its getting lower - thus increasing the distance from the floor can to the top of the unit and the top of the empty can
It's simply visualized math. There are three variables you have to consider; 1 the floor 2 the top of the counter top 3 the top of the upper can The counter is the only constant. Changing the orientation of either can is either going to add to or subtract from the overall height. đ€·

The trick employed here is gravity. If the table top had reverse gravity, then the distance would remain the same.
*The MATH comment*
case 1:
from bottom to top -
you measure the height across the side of the desk/shelf thing(call it T) + height of can laying flat(Fh).
case 2:
from bottom to top -
i) you measure the height from top of flat can to the point where shelf starts. let's define this as :
remaining height (Rh) = standing can height(Sh) - Flat can height(Fh).
ii) the height of table T
iii) height of standing can (Sh)
so we measure Rh + T + Sh..
the reason we get tricked is because we never measure the height of the bottom can...
shifting both cans would only cancel each other if we were measuring from the bottom of the can on the floor!
is that crt?
I rewatched it only to see Woody's expression đđ
I honestly do not know that the confusion is about.
There are two fixed points; the floor and the worktop.
The first measurement is from a higher start point (in relation to the floor) to a lower point (in relation to the worktop).
In the second measure you are starting lower (nearer to the floor) and ending higher (from the worktop).
You are effectively lengthening the start and finish points.
