Gömböc-The Shape That Shouldn't Exist
Vložit
- čas přidán 11. 06. 2020
- In this video I show you a Gömböc. This is a shape that has only two equilibrium points-one stable and one unstable, instead of the usual minimum of 4. It is self-righting no matter how you set it down.

Hi everyone, some are confused about why there is only one unstable equilibrium on the Gomboc since you can set it along anywhere on the upper edge and it will tip over. An unstable equilibrium is not simply an edge where it will tip over, but it has a specific definition. The equilibrium points are where the derivative of the potential energy of the shape is zero. To see if it is an unstable or stable equilibrium, then you check to see if the second derivative is positive or negative. If the second derivative of the potential energy is negative then it is an unstable equilibrium. If the second derivative is positive it means that the equilibrium stable. Non-mathematically this means that the unstable equilibrium is the point that it theoretically could be balanced because the weight is equal all around the point, but it would fall over at the slightest wind or movement.
that’s a lotta damage
Also hi
Oh ok. Yeah now i understand 😐
My braincells are going to have headache
Still didn't understand why the 2 points at sides where the sharp edge ends are not considered as unstable equilibrium points? However the rolled paper shape you showed has 2 unstable equilibrium points at sides?

So it is not about everyone, but the ones who create something with foreign language in it. Today it takes just a secound to know how you pronounce something. So it's not a matter of knowledge or ability it's just a matter laziness. That is my point.

*_"g ö m b ö c"_*
The Gömböc (not gumbock, but more like goem-boetz) was made and designed at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME). The name itself is kind of a made up word we use in Hungarian for objects with a round-ish shape, but what is not perfectly round like a ball, however it resembles one. Like for example when you're working with dough you can form small "gömböc" from the pastry. Not a perfect ball, but something close.
@UC35FDHsZ2hBfSjtLBhid9Dw I finished my studies for quite some time now but there was a permanent exhibition corner in the main hall of the Main building for years, and yes, I guess there is an oversized (although not giant) copy presented there.

This is one of those educational videos that is somehow manages to make you more confused than when you started because it assumes you already understand the definition of an equilibrium point.
It's clearly bullshit. The shape at 1:40 is far more deserving of having just two equilibrium points than the Gomboc.
@@1furious It's not bullshit, the cardboard tube has a line of stable equilibrium rather than a single point of balance. --MIT Grad here, lmk if you have other questions :)
He didn't explain himself thoroughly
@@chelsmeister ARE YOU SMARTER THAN A FIFTH GRADER!?
I prefer it this way with variety between videos. Different starting points for different people.
you must define what equillibrium is in the video more clearly, people are confusing any convex on the shape to be an equillibrium point when they dont get that there has to be balance between each side
exactly
Which is contradicted outright by the shape at 1:40. This whole concept is basically bullshit.
What you said
And egg shouldn't exist cuz it's not stable
Yeah... My takeaway from this is that he doesn't explain things well. He over explains some concepts and leaves out some important distinctions and nuances needed to correctly other concepts.
It makes me question if he understands these topics and isn't just trying to paraphrase things he's read and seen in other videos.

If anyone interested, the original “gömböc” is a Hungarian food. Their shape is somewhat similar and the name has a cutesy ring to it (for Hungarians). As for the food it’s not really produced anymore as it’s kinda disgusting by today’s standards (pork intestines filled with blood, meat, skin etc). It’s similar to “head cheese”, a similarly less known food in some parts of Europe.
It’s also the antagonist of a horroristic Hungarian folk tale (“Kisgömböc”) where a gömböc decides to run amok and basically eats the whole village alive :)

Glad you pinned this to the top. I was wondering that and you did a good explanation. Although, people who don’t understand potential kinetic energy won’t understand. That would be a great second part to this video, explaining that for non-science people. Thanks!!
for those wondering, there is only one unstable equilibrium because anywhere else (other than the stable equilibrium) will no matter what always return to the stable equilibrium. however, it can be balanced on the unstable equilibrium, only if you are very precise.
Thank you for explaining this, I was so confused from the lack of explanation in the video. The video just made it seem like every shape had an infinite amount

Ok so basic definition of stable equilibrium in terms of dynamics is when a certain body always returns to its original position without any constraints. Example. When you roll a marble in a bowl, it always returns back to the bottom point.
Unstable equilibrium is quite the opposite. If you were to keep the bowl upside down and roll the marble, it would roll off the bowl and won’t return to its original position

@@barsozuguler4744 Actually, if I understand right none of them are stable. The slightest breeze will make a perfect sphere roll, and only resting in something that contacts on three or more triangulated points will hold it.
@@MrDiaxus that's true
@@MrDiaxus if I understood it right, an equilobrium point is stable if it has an area. A spere or a cube that is balanced sideways lays on a point of edge, but not on a 2D area
@@MrDiaxus The sphere doesn't have unstable or stable equilibrium points, it has indifferent equilibrium points. If they were unstable equilibrium points, an arbitrarly small breeze would move the sphere by a large amount, instead an arbitrarly small breeze moves it by an arbitrarly small amount.

It isn’t the “u” in burn that’s pronounced like “ö”: it’s the “u” and “r” together. Some people in Scotland will roll the r a bit but most English speakers don’t pronounce it at all.

I am sorry, but does this gomboc object does not present near infinite number of unstable equilibrium points and only one stable?
It has one stable and one unstable equilibrium points, i believe youre thinking of non-equilibrium points, of which there are... many.
The video did a really bad job at differentiating between an equilibrium point and a non-equilibrium point. Whether it's a stable or unstable equilibrium, it's possible to balance a shape - unstable just means it'll fall over with a nudge. Obviously then non-equilibrium means it's impossible to balance it in the first place.
I thougt this too. Espacially at the head and tail of the Turtle.
@@andrebaur639 no matter what, if you put the turtle on the head or tail it will fall over into its belly. But, If you place it onto it's back very very carefully exactly over its center of gravity then it can balance on it's back, but any slight force like breeze or the turtle moving will make it roll onto its belly. You can't balance on non equilibrium points.
Equilibrium exists whenever the center of gravity is directly over the point of contact with the ground. Gravitational forces are over the point of contact, so the object is supported and there are no lateral forces to cause motion. If the center of gravity is not located over the point of contact, the offset in location of these opposing force vectors result in torque and subsequent rotation. The claim is that this only occurs in two positions with this object. Stable equilibrium occurs when the object's potential energy would increase (CG moving upwards) if the object moved away from equilibrium - therefore the object will tend to stay there unless energy is added. The object will return to the same position if a brief small force is applied. Unstable equilibrium occurs when the objects potential energy would decrease if moved away from equilibrium (CG moves lower). Any briefly applied force will result in the object continuing to move away from an unstable equilibrium. Basically the object can 'fall' out of an unstable equilibrium, but is already at it's lowest position when in stable equilibrium.

For anyone that wonders aswell: an unstable equilibrium is a side at which the object can "fall" to both sides. So there is "infinite" non-equilibrium points, but only one stable- and one unstable point.
Thank you! I was wondering about this because this demo piece appears to have pointed edges, which I thought must be an unstable equilibrium point if compared to the corner points on the cuboid. But if I understand you correctly, the pointed edges on the Gomboc would be non-equilibrium points?

1514 engraving by Durer called Melencolia 1 has a strange unquantifiable geometrical shape that is generally interpreted as a Polyhedron. It looks like a Gomboc before all the straight edges were filed away.

Well I mean evolution is a far better engineer than any of us and it’s been at work for much longer.

Szia, én is magyar vagyok. :)
Do you mind placing it on the glass on different angles, possibly trying every one of them? I need to see it to understand it.
Videos like this effectively drive home the point that I know nothing about sooooo much. My takeaway: scientists made a wobbly shape out of gray plastic. I'm sure there's more significance, but it eludes me.
“The shape that shouldnt exist”
Well now it does do deal with it

The most impressive aspect about the Goemboec (or Gomboc) is that it is still an Euclidean object.
Very cool - Great content just found you and subscribed 👍
Alternate title: Gömböc pronounced 300 different ways in 5 minutes.
Even the CC did that xD different like everytime
I am having a hard time hearing it wrong every single time, like man, look it up at least try to pronounce it right
@@xivoch legalább megkereste a címhez az ö betűt
@@gaboriloskity true dat
@@gaboriloskity Kicsit felesleges is volt, hiszen vannak azok a fajta magyarok, akiknek ékezetek nélkül is kb. ugyanazt jelenti... mondjuk a turos gomboc néha bántja az én szemem is, ha így látom leírva, de éppen emiatt a névválasztás is igen leleményes és találó a felfedezők részéről, hiszen külföldiektől ékezet nélkül is szinte "hasonló" alakot ért rajta minden magyar...
Remember: to pronounce "gömböc" correctly you need to switch the shape of your tongue from stable equilibrium to unstable equilibrium and the other way round.
@@muhtesemsiyanur when physics breaks- *i am 1 Multiverse ahead of you*
@@muhtesemsiyanur Its actually a Hungarian word. So both language has wrong pronounciation. The Turk one is almost the same as the original, Hungarian pronounciation but its still a bit different at the end of the word.
@@muhtesemsiyanur Hungarian "c" is pronounced /ts/ while Turkish "c" is pronounced like English /j/
It's /Gömböts/
@@Kasamori oh right, I thought it's pronounced /c/ in IPA
@@muhtesemsiyanur Now Hungarian has that sound, too, but it's written as "ty" if short or "tty" if long :)
For example
"dotted" = "pöttyös" [ pøc:øʃ ]
truly amazing thanks for sharing bud!
Your videos are always amazing! 🔥 🙂💯❤

Gömböc - Pronounced similar to "Gurmburts"
The word is related to "gombóc" or "dumpling", both deriving from "gömb" or "sphere" - "gömböc" is originally a Hungarian meat product where pork stomach and/or appendix is stuffed with ground meat, similar to how sausage is made. There's also a folk tale of the "Little Dumpling", a meat gömböc that gains consciousness, wiggles off the hook, rolls out the door and goes on a journey, to gobble up all the people it encounters, stretching bigger and bigger.
👍
Gömböc phonetically: gɜːmbɜːts (British) or gɜmbɜts (American)
man, ı am turkish and after ı read your comment ı realised that we turks also read the title like that. ı usually forgat that magyars and turks are distand cousins
