  • It's -cosine lawl

  • the origin is (0,0) so the curve is a sine function!

  • The guy is cosining at around 00:14

  • @Greatleader123

    It's neither, a sine or cosine wave will not eventually flatline

  • Can someone please remove these useless reactions? ....

    ... This is a great experiment to show students that the displacement of an oscillating object as a function of time yields a sine function. I did think about making it for my students but didn't (yet) get to it... Thanks.

  • Fresh

  • well, that's the gayest thing I have seen on youtube for a while!

  • @TWOLF365 1. homophobic

    2. useless

    3. unconstructive

    get out.

  • @spicyxlilxman Yes dad.

    1. I'm sorry you're my father, no one ever wanted it to happen.

    2. This guy doesn't love his son because he thinks his son is gay.

    3. He is jealous because he is the only one in the family that is hung like a single celled organism.

    Now, leave me alone.

  • it's starting actually at (0,1), the moment that guy releases the spray. you can't see the oscillations in the first seconds because the wavelength is zero.

    anyway it is not important whether it is a sine or a cosine wave, but there is an amplitude decreasing...

  • Please explain what is so remarkable about the result.

  • @sasha42196 there's nothing "so remarkable", it is just a visual demonstration of a simple harmonic oscillator, no big deal.

  • @sasha42196 bc college students to this point have probably studied trigonometric functions for about 4 years without seeing physical demonstrations that make sinusoidal behavior concrete.

  • I don't get it - why do you get so excited about the result?

  • well obviously its going to be a sine wave, what else is it going to be zig zag wave? lol

  • omg its a fucking cosine wave

  • @TheFaustschlag actually its a sine wave!

  • @lonogugeadult

    Actually the only difference in appearance between a sine wave and a cosine wave is that a sine wave starts at (0,0) and a cosine wave starts at (0,1), This one starts at (0,-1) so it would be more correct to say its an anti-cosine wave.

  • @Khyber68 no its still a sine wave with a shift of 1 to the left

  • w00t a sine wave.

  • @Reisyukaku

    No its cosine I tell you!!! COSINE!!

  • @Greatleader123 @Reisyukaku you guys really need to get a coordinate system

  • wtf
