  • Wow! I'm fucking dumb. I thought I was more of the big bus guy but after watching this, I belong on the short bus. Thanks MPLS public schools. That passing grade for trying really helped me out in the long run.

  • What is that "garment" he is wearing?

  • Kirchhoff (mispronounced btw) is way smarter!

  • Check out the skull on the board behind his head at 6:45. :)

  • Who cares about Kirchoff

  • This is at a uni ? .. Here in romania we learn this in second year of highschool ..

  • what is this circuits?

  • Is he teaching brain-dead students? Come you MIT nerds... grow some balls and correct your teacher. He is human just like you. Most professors would rather have students correct their mistakes because that shows the students understand what is going on.

  • @ndngaveuphorse Could be that, or that he was in the middle of a lecture, and would rather just listen to a brilliant professor blow their fucking minsd.

  • Anyone with a minimum understanding of line integral would expect that.

  • why do college professors still use chalk boards? Makes them feel smarter?

  • @TheRealEzzy because it works.

  • I only clicked because I thought he had a complete breakdown.

  • this was actually very dull, i wish i loved maths

  • now i know why i chose not to go to university

  • venereal disease - vaginal activity = 1 sad guy.

  • I wish he would teach us how to draw 3D images

  • I wish they would put this stuff on TV then maybe I wouldn't be so dumb...

  • come on guys, how many times are you going to have the opportunity to correct a professor at MIT

  • I wish he would draw a star.

  • Rules were made to be broken.

  • watt are u talking about? dont drink and derive people.....

  • VD-V8 = vinarial disease with a loss of fruits and veggies....is what i kept thinking over and over....hows that for intuition biatch

  • disappointed. was waiting from him to draw dotted lines.

  • why am I watching this? I dont even know what volt and watt is :(

  • @Thelavendel How old are you?

  • He is messing with us a little but here. If he had explained the the wire itself is the source of the EMF it becomes easier to understand. Still it was fun to think WTF for a minute or two.

  • He was so excited, he did it all wrawwwng :P :P :P

  • This must be an april fools lesson. As soon as the magnetic field comes in, there must be a perceptor for the field like 2 coils between the 2 resistors in order to make the potential difference. Then there are 4 points to messure the potential, not only the points A and D, You will never get another potential read between A and D by simply moving the meter from right to left. April fools or nonsense at MIT.

  • the students shouldve corrected him - thats the mistake

  • @abcomid correcting him after would be the better course. He saves face and you don't end up having issues with the professor.

  • he got the direction of the current wrong too...

  • mind = blown

  • Is this a freshman level course?

  • @tganubis looks like physics 2 or circuits 1 if you're EE or CE in most schools

  • @tganubis We did that stuff in the second term of the study :D (physics)

  • Comment removed

  • 1:10 lol

  • YEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHH i love this guy

  • crazy americans... have a symbol for elec. resistence wich nearly looks like a inductor. why dont you use the same distinctive symbol for resistence like the rest of the world? no wonder that nobody wants to buy your stuff:D 

  • @bubbelmo

    We do everything "special" cause we are "special" and have to be "unique".

  • @pyrates80 special like paralympics "special"

  • @pyrates80

    Indeed! Thats the reason why your industrie becomes the size of the Uzbekistani industrie! :D

  • @bubbelmo amerikunz

  • @bubbelmo drawing a box is too mainstream gosh. =P

  • @bubbelmo That´s actually a better symbol for taking faster notes :D

  • @00Gravity I just filmed all my classes.

  • @bubbelmo so? use your brain for symbol adaption...

  • I really wish I had the slightest clue what he is talking about, I'm so intrigued, but all I hear is random shit about electricity :(

  • Kirchhoff has a problem with that! :D

  • what a cool chalkboard

  • Spending your life doing something that was completely invented by humans and not nature is sad.

  • @blkcnzproductions These are laws of Nature, they aren't defined by Humans.

  • @RysselSmash

    The math he was doing was though

  • @blkcnzproductions No. It's all natural and that's why it works. Mankind only "discovers" it, if you will, but definitely does not create anything.

  • @RysselSmash

    So you're telling me nature 'told' him to write them symbols on the board? No, they were made by humans...

  • @blkcnzproductions The symbols are mere representations of the actual thing. If you change the symbols it won't change the rules at all. Just like the words you're using are just used to make the image of what they mean pop up in your head.

    "desk" isn't actually a desk, it's just a word that represents what a desk actually is.

  • @RysselSmash

    Oh yes I understand that, I mean things like Religion, mathematics, it's all useless and made entirely by humans.

  • @blkcnzproductions You're saying you understand, yet you assert the opposite in the same sentence. Religion has nothing to do with Maths, and most Maths aren't created by Humans, it's just laws that rule the world and that are transcribed so that we can all understand them, period. We aren't gods, we don't create stuff out the blue.

  • I wish I had a helmet to keep the mess down,

    cause he just blew my mind

  • @wumbo5 well, he basically explained electrical tension drop, and variation within a circuit with AC curent thru it, thru a solenoid. I am curious as to why is this so surprising for most people? because, in Romania, normally, we learn this in highschool, in our pre senior year :P. The fact that AC curent fields/circuits are non conservative, and variables depend on the moment of time, and direction of the curent, is a well known fact :P

  • @Maelkenar it was just a joke, kind of a play with the word 'intuition' from the title. Don't take it too seriously. I also agree that this is a fundamental concept, and have also learned this in high school.

  • @Maelkenar You're right, MIT has nothing on high schools in Romania

  • @Maelkenar It's because high school education in america is shitty, and we typically teach to the lowest common denominator

  • @Maelkenar I don't remember learning integration along a curve in highschool. ;) Let's keep the facts straight and stay humble. Physics reminds me every day that I'm not that wise.

  • @allydea actually, in senior year, we learn grade one integration, defined, and undefined. Integration along a curve is the integration of a grade n function, or a logarithmic function, exponential etc. I am merely commenting on the first year curriculum in MIT. Of course, we can never be absolete, and comparisons shouldn't exist. Was just voicing my curiosity.
