good point prosnobro... the entire universe has, as we know so far (never assure anything about universe, we can just guess things), a constant amount of energy. No loss, no income.
I don't know why but this video has some kind of calming effect. it's reall good. What's the music? i luv it. Please tell me what the music is. i'll do anything you want me to if you would only tell me what that music is. OK thats a bit desperate but please tell me any way !
you guys should check out another one of their science experiments... It involves nearly bringing a goldfish to its death then reviving it, to the music of Ersatz, by Fischerspooner. Such a good video to go with such a good song. I can't seem to find it on youtube, but look up the niestat brothers' website.
its good to see your innovation,,doing something with your life besides becoming a loser,,I commend you,, your parents must be as proud of you as I am of my kids,,,best of luck,,keep up the good work,,an A+ from this teacher....
wow, u guys are, like, smart, and suff...But any way, i think that Wayninsky's theory or nairbil's theory is the best and makes sense (because i play w/fire 2 lol). w/e they r the same anyway. Yea... Nice vids they're awesome!
Look, as the candle begins to burn, it burns just the slightest bit more on one side than the other. The heavier end slowly begins to drop. As it drops it begins to burn more rapidly than the other end. It continues this way until the other end becomes heavier and the candle rocks. The cycle repeats and builds on itself.
Explanation is heated air around the flame causes the end to rise (like a hot air baloon), and when the other side is also burning it causes a loop, like a swing, back and forth when the one end rises it cools down and the other gets hot and rises (repeats)
So you mean the air around was hot enough to push the candle up???? If you were right then the candle should fly away from the table to other country (like a hot air baloon)
have you seen how much hot air it takes to lift a hot air ballon... because that theory sucks. i mean the hot air isn't even being inclosed! if it was hot air then one side would continualy rise aswell because hot air rises, and the candles flames are on the top so once one of them got on top of the hot air it would just continue to rise... because the othere would hit the floor where it is coldist... but it doesn't matter.. because it would never happen
you sound stupid. the first thing you see should be the loss of wax on one end and it immediately rises. and when it drops down, it shakes the wax off due to gravity and it gains momentum to rise up.
oh btw Kaos theory is a mathematical & physics phenomenon that describes how a small sensitive event can cause a large random effect. Its to do with the atmosphere, the solar system, plate tectonics, turbulent fluids, economics, population growth and so on. Not how a candle swings up and down! lol

I totally agree with nairbil...he's prediction sounds most logical, in engineering there is a formula that is Moment(or torque) = Force x Distance away from axle. the forces of gravity are equal on both sides but the distances are changing because the flames are burning the wax unevenly! Thus a imbalance in distance creates a moment then creates the swinging movement that starts really small then gradually gets more momentum. Great video!
yes, but why does it start? simply because there was deviation in the time lit on each end by the wicks? or the wicks burned at different rates? not sure... could be either. But, I think Nairbil has a point there
Lots of things can start a slight imbalance, chaos theory basically. But once that happens, the oscillation begins. Its a neat system because it's one where it's constantly fighting itself to become balanced, which ironically creates a larger opposite imbalance, which it then fights against. Since chaos started it, it is possible that it could achieve balance again through chaos and stop moving, or never start moving to begin with.
What a lot of pseudo-scientific bullshit. Chaos is only relevant to the order in the imbalance, nonlinear mathematics can be used to model how a system like this behaves. "Chaos started it" means absolutely nothing. Fire, conducted and radiated heat, friction and displacement started it. The imbalance was there to begin with because nobody could put the needle -perfectly- in the middle. So it's really quite amazing that a system like this could reach a state of order. THAT'S Chaos.
when one flame is pointed down, it melts the wax faster than the one pointed up simply because it's burning into the candle as opposed to away. Thus, this rapid melting of one side lowers the weight making it rise. The process repeats and amplifies as the candle gets lighter and lighter and the mass lost is more significant to the total mass. That's my prediction.
