Rotational Motion: Crash Course Physics #11

Did you know that at a certain point on a moving wheel... there's no motion? I mean, kinda... it's all relative, right? Prepare to have your mind blown in this episode of Crash Course Physics where Shini delves into the world of rotational motion!

Binge the whole series at 2x speed to ascend to a higher level of consciousness

[@louieramirez4032]

If you're not getting it the first time. It might be a good time to review your textbook, speak to your instructor/tutor, or simply, rewatch whatever portions of the video you do not understand. That is it. It is fortunate that CrashCourse is producing such high-quality videos and squeezing large volumes of content into ~10 minute videos FOR FREE. Great work CrashCourse keep it up and keep the same style of videomaking.

[@3SPR1T]

yea even when you already know this stuff it's still a bit confusing at that part

[@lightspeed2014]

Imagine the tangential velocity of the the point below the center to be linear velocity for one moment and imagine it going away from the circle, but the whole circle itself is moving forward, so that point is also moving forward, since it is literally moving in opposite directions at the same time with the same speed, it’s velocities cancel out and become 0.

Watching it as a review the first time blew my mind indeed (it has been 7 years since my last physics class), but re-watching it does help. It made more sense to me the 2nd time around.

[@erikziak1249]

Brings back memories from long ago, when I was studying mechanical engineering. Nice to see that I did not forget everything, as I ended up in IT and actually never worked in anything related to what I studied. But I am not sure how the normal audience manages to keep up with this series. I personally like it.

[@DeMaxize]

I do not understand what people complain about . The speed of the speech is proper , just what you need to obtain the information . Actually as a physics student I find this series very useful , quick way to get an overview of the subject with relevant visualizations and without too much algebra . Nobody said that the course provides a PhD , this is a great way for somebody who already knows the subject to rehearse and see the physics a little bit clearer , without the algebraic fog . For someone who hasn't studied physics at academic level , this would be a great way to understand the idea of physics behind everyday phenomenons .

[@PepperTheDeadly]

Dude, it's a crashcourse. You don't learn stuff for the first time during a crash course ಠ_ʖಠ

[@darshilpatel5267]

I don't know, getting the basis here is easy if you pause and understand then go to apply with practice in the books.

[@timperry6948]

It's actually pretty easy to understand and visualise. The wheel is basically pivoting on a constantly moving point. When a point is at the bottom, it is the pivot so, like a fixed pivot such the hinges of a door, it isn't actually moving even though the object is.

[@me2143658709]

An open letter to those who complain about the content delivery: Isn't it lucky that the information is being belied in a format where pausing, slowing down, and rewinding are all options? It isn't my intent to offend, but this video probably isn't exactly for you. That isn't to say crash course doesn't want as many people to enjoy their content as possible, but the original purpose was to be a resource for AP student. As someone who is currently in AP Physics and on this unit, this wasn't too fast. That's not to say that students are expected to catch everything just by watching it the first time through. But the students here are either watching it for a preview before class, an additional perspective, or a review before a test. No one is meant to walk away form crash course with a physics major. These are meant to be fast videos to give a basic understanding to curious internet goers and to help students learn and study. Best wishes, Vicki

[@rangkara7201]

Indeed, its like 10 minutes before my exam and this video is helpful

Totally agree. Had to try to learn this digitally since school is canceled, and I've never really understood my teacher's lectures 100% anyway. These totally helped me get what I didn't already understand from previous lectures and review

These videos are going to help me a lot at the test to get to the college. And once I get there they will help me on getting better physics at the games I will create.

[@RagerQueen]

I'm seeing a lot of people in the comments being confused and that's why I think running a Maths crash course alongside this one would have been a good idea. I was in advanced maths class and taking extra physics lessons (for high school exams) and you really can't do one without the other. (Or at least if we're talking about the calculations part. You could do physics in theory just fine but this crash course is heavily focused on the formulae) ((Also, sorry if I made mistakes, I'm Hungarian so I didn't study these subjects in English))

[@MrKierenisawesome]

Your English is better than a lot of people on the internet and your comment had no mistakes. You did very well! I agree with your comment as well. It's a very good point.

In our lessons, we study rotational motion a week before we go to periodic motion ..... but this video sums it up to the point that i need to repeat the video and some parts i missed all over and over again..... but it's awesome to know that the velocity on the point of the wheel at the ground is 0, if and only if it's not slipping forward on its own.

I broke... I need to learn calculus more deeply and than come back to this.

[@Satanlikescheezwhiz]

This videl lecture had no calculus needed?

[@shaylempert9994]

it uses "derivatives", and the video before it used "integrals"

[@TDRinfinity]

They did videos which tell you all you need to know about calculus (very little)

[@shaylempert9994]

I watched it all. it may be good as a review of the concepts(the series) but its bad at teaching these concepts from no knowledge of physics. The fact that I learned some of these concepts allows me to see how terrible the course is. Its not like world history that you need to remember facts - in this course you need to UNDERSTAND the learned material, at least me.

[@Fetrovsky]

Feel free to ask; I can clarify.

[@babis8142]

OK it was fun at first. Now it's like sinking in water. With every episode I get more and more lost

[@BillySugger1965]

Great video, packs in a lot of info and I'm sure many people will need to rewind sections many times to get it all. One thing I found frustrating was I've never seen anyone treat angular motion from basics using tau instead of 2pi. While all the other references use 2pi, tau is a much more intuitive concept and one far easier for novices to grasp. Sure it's harder for those of us who are already familiar with the subject, but teachers should be making learning easier for their students, not themselves.

[@frankzheng6838]

For everyone complaining about this video being too fast... there is a thing called the PAUSE BUTTON. I didn't previously know about this subject when I watched this video, but if you take 20 or so minutes watching it (pausing and rewinding), you should be able to grasp all the concepts.

You can slow down the video speed as well

I have to say i like how the start music is half or less than half of what it was. Thats a great improvement :)

[@oluwafisayoadekoya1042]

Hey guys. What might help is hitting the spoke(wheel like thing) at the bottom left corner of the screen, this way you can reduce the speed of the video. Other alternatives are using the closed caption, and also going to Nerdfighter which is a website with transcripts the videos and transcripts along side. This way you can watch the video and read associated caption for better understanding.

[@0xbobbyboy]

I do not usually watch youtube videos in order to get educated in physics, because I prefer to study by book, since every concept is explained in very detail and it makes it optimal since you can move on, only when you truly understand it, which you can test by solving some problems. For me, this video serves as an excellent summary on the topic of rotational motion, since I have already studied it and I was able to get a very good revison by watching it. I wrote this comment as a response to people that are saying that they cannot follow this course. Almost nobody can, without pauses, if they are seeing this for the first time, because there are many important concepts to comprehend. As a future scientist, my advice is to always study the same material from different sources, because it will give you the best understanding, including CrashCourse, which I must say, has left a very good impresion on me.

Loving what you all do. Believe it or not, I'm taking notes and trying to relearn this from college & learn any missing pieces...I'm not watching this to criticize. Mentioning this, because I think I found a mistake in one of the graphics. At 4:32, she says the revolution is 2pi times radians, but the graphics on screen left out 'r'. Again, I'm watching this to learn but wanted to point it out. Unless I'm wrong, never mind! Thanks

[@StephenGillie]

Meanwhile, in circle-strafing, you're increasing your transverse velocity, which is just the angular velocity of a larger circle. So you're maintaining a higher angular velocity with a larger circle, and outrunning your opponent, who has a slower angular velocity despite having a smaller radius to travel. Dude, I'm so high.

Well without offending anyone, that was by far the easiest way of differentiating the two balls.

[@zlotnleo]

Well, there's an even easier method. Football and rugby ball

[@BullStengthTheories]

***** Except more than half their audience wouldn't know what a rugby ball looks like. Saying football and soccer ball works for basically their entire audience. They're not here to just please Europeans... Especially when some of the largest countries (especially in terms of KZbin viewership) refer to it as just soccer...

[@viktorrds]

You may be right about their audience, I have no stats to question, but basically only USA, Canada, South Africa (and neighbors), Australia and Japan call it Soccer. Europeans, South Americans, Central Americas, México, rest of África, and Asia call it Football, so it's not to please "only the Europeans", and Rugby as gained lot of popularity, now is an Olympic Sport. And most important of all: the OP was a joke! Stop trying rationalize everything and wasting words for stupid reasons, and that's for the three of us! Excuse my poor English

[@criskity]

Many Irish people also say "soccer", because "football" means "Gaelic football".

I am so glad that there are video's about this because it is much easyer to rehearse for my exams ( I learned this at school). But because I am not a native english speaker and you speak very fast, I can't follow the video that good. Everything just flies by and it's probably the case for everybody that does not have already learned this. So I'd suggest you make the video a bit longer and speak calmly. It would make more sence because I believe the purpose is to educate people? But again thanks for the hard work you deserve a like.

As a child before I even knew there was such a thing as physics, this puzzled me so much. How was there a small wheel (I was looking at hubcaps) inside a bigger wheel and they both would spin as one yet separated a smaller wheel needs more revolutions to keep up with a wheel of greater diameter. Not in so many words but I must have worried my parents seeing me look at wheels for hours. Kids have it good nowadays. I could have just KZbin searched the answer. xD Love crash course.
