Im an student of the engineering faculty of Uruguay, and this helped me a lot. I have always thought that MIT or Harvard were harder than the rest of the universities, but it looks like they are easier because of the amazing teachers they have. Greetings from almost the end of the world!

Just finished watching lecture 20 but cant stop there because of "Tuesday" class he already sold to us. this lecture must be one of the fundamentals before learning Maxwell equations or electrodynamics. It's more comforting to learn some physics from math class than the other way around. btw his french accent is quite cute

About weather and curl: The hairy ball theorem says that there must be a calm spot on Earth's weather system. But if there is no curl in Earth's weather system there cannot be a calm spot. But if you think about prevailing winds all over the Earth for example from east to west you'd have cyclones eg. rotating winds (curl 0) on both poles and there would be a calm spot on the eye of the cyclone. You can not smooth a hairy ball.

These lectures save me a lot of time. My professor teaches by example which is a pain because he covers this material in 3 lectures. I'd rather come here and get the concepts then sweat through the examples on my own.

I would have wanted to learn more about the intuition behind curl, why the formula has anything to do with rotation and why curl gives twice the angular velocity. Anyway, these are great MIT lectures and Demis is a good professor.
@ianbrown4823 жыл бұрын
Here's some intuition. In the plane we can have either clockwise or counterclockwise rotation, so let's define counterclockwise as the positive direction for rotation and curl. So, if I have a point with positive curl, then to the right of the point, that is, for x-values greater than that of the point, we will have upward motion. Similarly, to the left of the point we will have downward motion. So for lower x-values the vertical motion around the point is downward or negative, and for greater x values the vertical motion is upward or positive. So, around the point, as x increases, the vertical motion, which is the partial derivative with respect to y, increases. In other words, the rate of change of the partial derivative with respect to y, with respect to x, f sub yx or N sub x, is greater than 0 (in the case of positive curl). For the horizontal motion, which takes place above and below the point, the reasoning is similar. Above the point the motion is horizontal and to the left, while below it's to the right. Above the point the partial derivative with respect to x is negative, while below it's positive. Since above the point the y-values are greater, we see that as y increases, the horizontal motion component decreases by becoming more negative. So the rate of change of the partial derivative with respect to x, with respect to y, f sub xy or M sub y, is less than 0 (again, in the case of positive curl). Since M sub y will be negative, but we want a positive result to indicate positive curl, curl is defined as N sub x - M sub y, because N sub x > 0 and -(M sub y) > 0. Curl is just the sum of the parts of motion indicating clockwise or counterclockwise rotation around a point, necessarily described by the second partial derivatives.

to me a direct derivation of force field giving torque as a curl would have been more intuitive rather than merely showing an analogous equation at the end of the lecture. For velocity field, I could very well and easily see why the equation of curl represents rotation but I am failing to see vide the same equation how force field would give torque as curl.
