It's easier to just wiki and google what you want to know. Instead of understanding a topic, it's much more morally acceptable to just do a keyword search, I'm sorry :-)
Whenever I feel my interest in nature fading through the dulling forces of every day life, I come to YouTube and watch / listen to Feynman speak, and my fascination with nature is restored ^_^
I love listening to him although I'm gonna be honest I don't understand everything. listening to him talk about all of this complicated stuff about electricity made me think about how amazing it is that humans have made a way for me to sit here and watch and listen to this interview of feynman from many years ago. Imagine all the complicated shit involved in making my headset make the sounds and the screen make the picture etc etc, dang the world is a mysterious place.
Feynman himself was very great, comparable to Maxwell because his works were very directed at what science can deliver for society more so now then ever.
His train of thought, is never delayed or derailed. He can quickly go into great detail of an aspect of great complication, and simplify the reality with such contagious enthusiasm that you forget for just a moment, that you are discussing quantum physics. Rest in Peace.
8:15 I am not to sure if I agree with that. he says the electrons are push by the motion of the copper wires. I have watched a few of his videos and @ times he is not to sure what he is saying. I would have said the electrons are moved by the magnetic field from the coppers wires.
Don't underestimate how difficult it is to just sit and speak continuously about physics without misspeaking from time to time. This is an unimaginably brilliant man. He's not confused..he just has trouble translating sometimes. He meant motions within the copper wires. The potential field is what initially drives the electrons. The magnetic field is just a relativistic effect of the moving charges, but what he is saying is right too.(aside from the initial wording)
@jno1686 I remember learning physics in school and electronics in college. Not all the teachers were good @ explaining what they knew but the ones that did know did a very good job. I only made the comment to point out that we now have more scientist then ever but they still have problems explaining theories. Then along come the politicians to explain climates science but with political solutions to problems that science could solve if it was allowed to. Hope you get my drift.
@Maverician considering the comment is over a year old the only troll is you. Why would someone look thought old comment and make negative remakes. You don't know me or know what I know yet you go to all this trouble to go off topic and start a fight with someone you have never met or know. Do not reply I do not have time to waste typing shit to people who over react and don't stop to think before putting pen to paper.
@MicrosoftsourceCode Okay, so I kinda suspect you are trolling even more now. Your response surely could have been shorter than that.
Pen to paper? We're on comps. Surely someone with the name "MicrosoftsourceCode" knows that.
Over react? In what way was what I said an overreaction (even much of a reaction at all, let alone anything of high intensity) or negative (barring the trolling question)? It was simply informative.
In response to the age of the comment, it was at the top. (Blame Youtube).

Some people want young white females to mix with non-white males.
I made a one-minute video highlighting a very tiny sample of race-mixing advertisements.
I love white people, and I am opposed to race-mixing. But I do not hate non-whites.

@MicrosoftsourceCode He's intensely simplifying it. The majority of what he is saying is metaphor and simplification.
