conceptual physics Mass Vs Weight

[abhijithero]

Simple .Lower string is subjected to only tension T but upper string is subjected to Tension (T) + weight (W) thts why string brakes, i believe inertia has nothing to do with it or very negligible.

I wish all my teachers were as enthusiastic as him when it came to teaching their subjects.

[Arghira]

I love his excitement 

[inoviamaster]

chuck? why are you in a physics cla- ohhhhh because you defy physics oh ok....

[4fifty8]

I think this guy explained the difference between mass and inertia... not mass and weight!

[UCMolosser]

@4fifty8 He explained the different between weight and inertia. Mass and inertia are largely interchangeable terms.

[4fifty8]

@UCMolosser Ya. I dunno why I said that in my comment!

[chibraxial]

Mass is the delaying of force(s) due to mechanical constraints

[kgmansor]

lol wat a nerd

[koolsudeep]

i wish my physics professor was like that

[MrEbichan]

lazy

[bboydjoe]

see this is the shit we should be learning about in physics, conceptual stuff that actually make sense!

[TheBlackSky000]

He didn't mention that both strings are identical for the 1st part of the experiment .!!!

He should mention that before he ask his question.

So far it's a good tutorial. Thanks for sharing.

the dictionary lookup for pedantic should redirect to this youtube video

[panoarturo1]

mans like him made the class in interesting. thanks

so informal and so entertaining

[priitraag]

When the bottom string is pulled slowly, there is enough time for the force to spread equally between all the fibers of the strings. As the top string has some extra force applied by the ball, it will break first. If the bottom string is pulled rapidly, some fibers of the bottom string will break before being able to spread all the force to the second string. If wires were used instead of strings, the upper wire would break first in case of the rapid pull (force spreads quickly in metal).

"Another word for inertia is 'lazy'."

That must mean that I have a lot of inertia.

[batfly]

@MrRobotoToo

Yeah inertia is just a tendency to stay at rest or stay in motion. Unless of course you employ an inertia cancellation via magnetic resonance at the quantum level... but never mind about that.

does every teach know how to draw?? (:

[itsabomberscope]

Great guy, he is the chuck norris of physics ! lol

[63nbell]

@itsabomberscope No, he's the George Carlin of physics.

[BABarracus6]

@itsabomberscope chuck norris teaching physics

[hemmingway82]

Wish I had a teacher like him, makes me laugh while learning

[lecbdesigns]

He scares me, but i like him. I think it's how excited he is about physics.

[gunblade64]

This great tutor needs a more interested audience.

[ZorFrozen]

@gunblade64 dumb children...

[MustangGTR2]

@gunblade64 definetely,may be they are overwelmed by math class
