Thank you, Walter.

Regarding blackboards, do they not work?

[santoshiom]

i am amazed they still use blackboard at MIT !!

[cream0fwheat]

blackboards are the shit

[1stsmosh]

He should use MAPP gas instead of Propane, it will heat up faster.

[mremile72]

this man is one of the few teachers who goes beyond that of good, he is inspirational :)

[Deezhan]

He is too smart, his IQ must be at 170, minimum...far over mensa level!

[GeoVerbose]

Not quite

[AIexen]

Eh, I wish all teachers were like him..

My physic teacher is a god of boredom....

Great vid btw.

[SamFischer1000]

[bigbuffindian]

Never knew that! This dude is cool.

[chinx1980]

If he was my teacher in college... I would not need to give exam 3 times... he makes phyics very interesting!

[ncbookz]

just think outside the box and you dont need him

[edito777]

Damn spammers. In what way is this wasting time?

It's worth it's time.

[Glendale1901]

Does he still teach at MIT?

[mlllee]

Even though i did not major in Physics, his teaching is definetely interesting and fun! great prof!

[foxxpup]

Great lecture/demonstration. Thanx. :-)

[xpdnc12]

Mr. Lewin's lectures are probably the best use of YouTube I've seen yet. Wonderful wonderful material! Thanks for posting!

[dominac]

wow..thats great..i'm learning this in HS!

[nuclearbox2]

incredible

[Onegatif19]

Very cool, i thought that I'll hear some applause at the end! :)

[mrjoss66]

Really great! I wish I had a teacher like him.

Bravo!

[Spamoy12]

WOW!! I didn't understand that experiment until the end. interesting clip on the CBS evening news on 12 20 2007

[AdminOnDuty]

This may tell us something about Tectonics and Magma. How electrical currents in the earth move around and are restricted. It also can help us understand why certain coils operate differently when they get near the Curie Point.

[only1duk]

looks like he went a bit too far into the rabbit hole

[apper2112]

This is getting too heavy. You can see the nut doing its nut right at the end.

[Felidispat]

Amazing!

[kkalani]

thats awesome! MIT Rules..

[uzqui]

dam! MIT has a lot of fun!

Blood becomes paramagnetic after an MRI scan; and it takes a good 6 months for the iron dipoles in haemoglobin to re-align themselves. According to my Complete Assimilation of Intuition :)

[Fhran]

Can you give me more info about that? Maybe some links or name so I can google it...

[AdminOnDuty]

After my MRI I couldn't put down my fork and spoon. It's like they were stuck to me.

Just Kidding, I was hungry alot ;)

Actually and MRI works because the atoms 'snap back' to their original position when the field collapses. and this return gives off energy that is converted to the image. I'm sure Iron in the body works the same way.

[Givemeafinname]

thats some cool stuff.
