But the yellow line NEVER makes a 360 degree rotation around itself in the video! It just stays the same and stationary

Yes. Short and to the point but I think a very important detail was left out. A short explanation of kinetic energy (KE) - the energy involved in momentum - the energy of objects in motion. KE is directly proportional to mass (given the same velocity). Double the mass and you double the energy of the motion. But KE is also proportional to the velocity - squared! So if you double the speed you quadruple the energy of the motion. Triple speed means 9 times the energy. This is why the drivers ed adage, “Speed Kills” is so very true. The energy of going thirty miles an hour compared to ten mph is NINE TIMES AS MUCH. And all that energy goes into crumpling your car and breaking your bones. The equation is KE=1/2mv^2

a zero

Thank you I finally understand momentum after ages 😮‍💨

The man on the moon wants to keep an eye on us.

Wow. How fortunate I am to have found your channel. Thanks

No... No.... No.... No.... WRONG!!!!!!..... THE MOON IS NOT ROTATING ON IT'S AXIS. it's REVOLVING around the earth.

How do we agree on which way us UP ??

First time I've understood this. Many thanks!

If the Moon rotated faster or slower, the center of gravity would shift. It would not be pulled back like the spoon.

lol just speak how you like, we can adjust playback speed

The issue is: is there another moon anywhere in the universe that behaves the same way as earth's moon?

It will move because the cart has tires, which will greatly reduce friction and the action/reaction force.

And you think all this is just a coincidence?

HERE IS THE ANSWER TO OUR ENERGY ISSUES!

It doesn’t have sides.

Because the aliens inhabiting the Moon doesn't want to reveal themselves to earthlings.

You inverted the dark side with the near side....in your animation

Fantastic

Fantastic explanation, subscribed your channel. Please continue your good work

It so enjoyable to learn things when there is no test.

M.P.H. please... Quit trying to convert us Americans to the Dummy metric system..

😳😳😳😳🕉️🙏🕉️😳😳😳😳

This blows, trying understand this, I got so aggravated I had to try n change the topic all together, it started give me a headache n figured I'll stick with the automotive world that I know well n loved, try to understand that light yrs B's n I'll be laying in bed aggressively trying to get it out of my head

The earth doesn’t spin or move 😊

When I opened the video I did not look at the views. When it was done I thought may be it had 10 Million views but I was shocked

Very well explained and illustrated. Thank you!

They should just put on KZbin in class instead of teaching us. We’ll learn a lot more.

The moon is stupid

The reason the Moon always faces the Earth, is because there are Butt Fuckers on this planet.

Lakes do experience tides as does the ground beneath your feet - they are called "Earth tides" and geophysicists doing gravity surveys for mineral exploration make corrections for them. They are small, so we don't notice them, but theya re certainly real, so thumbs down for misinformation in this video.

A nice "intuitive" explanation but is incorrect. The Moon and the Earth both orbit about a common point called the "barycentre" of the Earth-Moon pair. That is what causes the high tides on the opposite side of the Earth. If the Earth and the Moon were the same mass, the barycentre would be half-way between them and each would orbit around the other. Google on barycentre (or barycenter) for diagrams and explanations.

You are as amazing as Carl Sagan.

This explanation is completely wrong. The side of the Moon that always faces Earth, does so because it is more dense than the opposite side. Also, the centre of gravity created by Earth's pull, would not "swing back like a spoon." The centre of gravity would change, with rotation, on a Moon with evenly distributed mass.

This was my epiphany moment in time. Why do only see one side of the moon? Be cause we do.

We mostly think that mountains are solid rock, but a large part of our world and mountains are made of many horizontal layers lying loose on top of other layers. In the Grand Canyon we see that very clearly. When the layers below degrade because of waves or erosion, a part of a mountain can break off. These layers are the effect of a recurring natural disaster that is caused by the ninth planet in our solar system that orbits our Sun in an eccentric orbit. That orbit is almost perpendicular to the ecliptic plane of the other planets, so planet Nine is known as a crossing planet. During that crossing at a very high speed the gravitational pull lifts the water on our planet high up even above the highest mountains. That huge tidal wave is pulled all over our planet because the Earth keeps turning. At the end our planet is covered with a thick layer of mud, a mix of sand, clay, fossils lime and meteorites. That layer hardens after time and forms the upper layer on top of the many others. Abundant and convincing evidence including many pictures about the cycle of floods and civilizations and its timeline and ancient high tech can be found in the eBook "Planet 9 = Nibiru". Just search for: nibiru = 9

Nicely done!

I was really enjoying the video until the theory of evolution was treated as documented fact.

This guy definitely has bodies in the basement

Does this happen to all moons?

Great explanation of the current status.. question is how did it come to be tidally locked.. was it always like this just by happenstance. I understand the moon was created by an astroid stick to earth that tore a piece out of earth and created the moon. So from the beginning was it locked or has it slowed down naturally and will moons with the other planets do the same thing.

An ingenious explanation, not entirely convincing though. The same thing must happen with all moons of all planets in the solar system. Why, everywhere in the universe. No moon of a planet can have an independent rotation of its own. Why are planets not exhibiting the same phenomenon, that is, the same side facing the Sun. There must be some other explanation.

I take it this film is used in American high schools? Yes, of course it is.

Thank you for this. I have argued this point with a few people, they all believe the moon is not rotataing on an axis.

Wow, watching in 2025! So basically Earth is hypnotising the moon

6:50 I like the trick at the end.

Algorithm blessed me with this video

Fiction

The reason one side faces us is because the other side is the Sun.

The earth is not spinning in your model
