Every Common Misconception Debunked in 6 Minutes

Fun fact: the story that carrots imporve eyesight in the dark comes from ww2. You see, the brits had a knew piece of technology, the radar, and they wanted to keep it a secret. And how did they explain that they were seeing enemy bombers in the night? They said, the pilots eat lots of carrots, that improve their night vision!

While "improving" night vision likely is myth, there is some basis to say that Vitamin A (and hence carrots, in the form of β-carotene) will "improve" it in cases of deficiency. Eating carrots beyond that point might turn your skin orange won't improve vision.

Well. I didn’t say anything you couldn’t believe or we could disagree on, I’m just saying that if you’re gonna believe whatever information that “makes sense” to you but not whether if it is objectively true or false, then you *must* at least do some of your own research into all information you believe in (if you research very well that is) to verify and determine what it is actually true or not. *I already debunked some of these “debunks” of every common “misconception”* which the channel owner could have easily fixed if he actually put in the time and effort to researching about these “misconceptions” which doesn’t take that long or that much effort either. *Go see my other comments, and you’ll see some of the corrections and explanations I posted.*

[@Clementiniel]

@@AdhvaithSaneYou seem outright delusional to me. Everything explained in the video is true. I'll adress some of the comments you made. The perception of the sun in the color yellow IS due to atmospheric scattering. The earth's atmosphere scatters the smaller wavelengths of sun light more effectively, causing blue light to be predominant (hence the color of the atmosphere being blue) and the sun when looked at directly as yellow. Colors of larger wavelengths can be perceived during sunset and sunrise due to the tilt of the location opposing the sun. Light intensity (luminous flux) has nothing to do with it, as the sun's color perceived in the international space station is completely white, while the surface under the atmosphere perceives it as yellow. The unconductivity of water due to the presence of impurities is the exact and correct way to explain it. Pure H2O is inherently unconductive, while metallic ions diffused in water (like SALT, LITERALLY SODIUM (METAL) CHLORIDE) increases it's electric conductivity drastically. Anything that makes water less pure h2o is called an impurity. Just like any different metals present in gold. Camels do not directly store water in their humps; they are reservoirs of fatty tissue. When this tissue is metabolized, it yields a greater mass of water to evaporate from the lungs during respiration. Since oxygen is required for the metabolic process, there still is a net decrease in water, but it is still more than 90% efficient. Camels use this adaptation to store excess fat tissue, then convert and immediately use water from these reserves to sustain water intake when needed. Because of the way you describe objective scientific facts as "pushed on agendas" and "psuedoscience" makes me believe you should get yourself checked out for schizophrenia or psychosis. These are seriously not based in reality. Perhaps some religious undertones are at play altering your perception of science, but please dont share your delusions with others on the internet to misinform them.

[@markosmywords9202]

A notable exception to the “cutting worms in half” myth is hammerhead worms, which _do_ become two separate worms when split in half. That’s why they’re such an invasive species, bc they’re nigh impossible to kill outside of dissolving them.

[@markosmywords9202]

In case you’re curious about how to dissolve them: 1. Put worm in a container. 2. Pour some vinegar or salt into the container. 3. Seal the container shut. 4. Stick it in the freezer for 2 days or until it’s dissolved. Don’t feel bad, these things are terrible for the environment. They feed on earthworms, which are very important for the ecosystem.

[@Psilobite]

#3 is incorrect. Goldfish secrete a growth limiting hormone. This builds up in their aquarium and limits the size of their growth. If they are released into a lake or large pond, they will then grow to a large size. This is a natural adaptation that will limit their growth if they become too overcrowded, or if they become stuck in a small body of water. A goldfish in an aquarium that receives frequent large water changes will grow bigger than one in an aquarium that receives fewer water changes. You can easily look up pictures of goldfish released into lakes or ponds that have grown to a very large size.

For the 5th one, it's not due to air force being the reason why dropping a penny from a skyscraper won't kill you, but the fact that the force of impact is just very, very low. Let's say we're dropping a penny from the top of Empire State Building, which is 1250 feet above ground, on a 5 foot tall man. 1250 feet would be equal to 381 meters and 5 feet would be 1.524 meters. Subtracting the two, we get 379.476 meters which is the distance the penny will travel. Using the kinematic equation for distance, d=1/2gt^2 where g is the acceleration due to gravity on Earth = 9.81 m/s^2, d = 379.476, and t is unknown, we get 379.476 = 1/2(9.81)t^2 379.476 = 4.905t^2 sq379.476 = sq4.905t 19.48 = 2.21t t = 8.81 seconds, where t is the time it takes for the penny to drop from the top of the Empire State to the head of the man. Now, find the velocity. vf = vi + gt, where vf is the final velocity which we are trying to evaluate, vi is the initial velocity which equals zero, t is time which is 8.81 seconds, and a is the acceleration due to gravity being 9.81 m/s^2. So we can use the Impulse-Momentum equation to estimate the force. Since vi = 0, we get vf = gt v = gt v = (9.81)(8.81) v = 86.4261 m/s which is the FINAL speed that the penny moves in Finally, to find the calculate force, we use the impulse-momentum formula which is: F = mv/t, with mv calculating the momentum and t being the time. The approximate mass of a penny in kilograms is 0.0025 kilograms. Now, since we're calculating the FORCE of IMPACT, we would need to calculate the Impact force. In this face, we don't use 8.81 seconds as the time for this formula because the impact force would be exactly when the penny hits the head of the man, which will be a VERY small amount of time. Let's say 0.01 seconds. F = (0.0025 kg)(86.4261 m/s) / (0.01s) F = ~ 21.61 Newtons. To put that number up to comparison, the average swing of a bat is about 300-500 newtons. It takes approximately 3500-5000 newtons to kill the average human. Therefore, dropping a penny on the head of a man from the top of the empire state building will do very little damage.

True but it has no effect on temperature, differences in temperature across seasons is due to the earth’s tilt; the half of the earth tilted towards the sun absorbs the same amount of light across a larger area, hence a lower temperature, and vice versa.

misconception 32 is quite the misconception itself. the earliest record stating that Sol Invictus was in December 25 comes long after christianity was a famous and state religion, making it more likely that pagans adapted their holyday instead.

This is shown in the book "Christmas - theological anticipations". However, there is many other early calculations for christmas that are not followed today.

For the 10th one about Earth being closer to the sun during summer: While this is false and while it is true that seasons are determined by the Earth's tilt, it is also important to note that due to the Earth's elliptical orbit, we have two points of the Earth's rotational orbit which we call the "Perihelion" and the "Aphelion." The Perihelion is the point of Earth's elliptical orbit where it is the closest to the sun, and the Aphelion is the point where it is the farthest from the sun. The Perihelion of Earth's orbit is during January (Winter) and the Aphelion is during July (Summer).

Its the amount of energy RELEASED from a food when placed inside a "calorimeter" to be combined with oxygen and boil a certain amount of Water... Also calories can't be stored.

And yes,we do lose or gain energy via food, but if one wants to get specific it is usually Carbohydrates.

[@-_Nuke_-]

@@masterchief5603 Read my comment again! Calories are NOT "how much energy there is inside your food". For that to be true - your body would need to work exactly like a calorimeter (which is where the calories of the food are calculated). But the human body ISN'T just as simple as a calorimeter device. It's insanely more complicated and it is DEFINITELY not burning food (which we also already turned into fine power) and then boiling water with it just like a calorimeter does. So no - calories are not a reference to how much energy the human body can get out of the food. It is a reference to how much energy a CALORIMETER is able to get out of that food. Not the human body. So, in conclusion. The food that you eat has stored energy in it. How much? Depends on what operation you are using to extract it... If you could for example somehow take all the protons out of the atoms of the molecules that form the food and bombard the nucleus of other atoms, you could make an atomic bomb from a steak... The steak really has INSANE amounts of energy stored inside each individual atom, but can you utilize that energy? No. So it's pointless to measure it... Otherwise we should measure the energy of a steak in yields of TNT... The human body isn't such a simple machine as a calorimeter is. Therefore the simple "calories in, calories out" formula that people are obsessing about to lose fat - is just a myth... Simply because as much as the human body is concerned - calories make no sense... Its mostly there for marketing value cuz it really can't provide anything more than that.

thats not the reason, the ellipitcal orbit is a negligible effect. the tilt of the earth shows and hides some parts, so from the equator, one half of the earth receives sunlight over a smaller area, and the other over a bigger area. its spread over the bigger area and dissipated, thus it is colder, and vice versa for the smaller one, where there is less space to spread the same amount of sun.
