The electrons in copper are finite yet copper wire in generators do not lose their electrons, if they did then the atoms would be stripped and the nucleuses would all repel each other, no more copper. Generators can operate in vacuums so the electrons are not coming from the air. The electrons must be coming from some where else.
@RoyalDragonusa how? How do the magnets create them, from what do they create them. You made a statement that has no meaning. You may as well have just said, "they just appear". If the electrons came from the magnets then the magnets would lose all their electrons over time. This doesn't happen. The electron stream only occurs when the magnets are moved. Not when the magnets are held still next to copper. Magnets have lines of magnetic fields around them, what are those fields made of?
@Indygoguy yikes! I never thought about that! I can understand that that wouldn't be a problem with AC, but now I'm wondering how the fook DC works...
@Indygoguy Oh, sheesh, yall! You really had me going for a second! The electrons stay in the copper and move around in a circuit. They don't come out of the magnet, and they don't leave the wire. When the circuit's broken, they just stop moving. I reckon putting a generator on a broken circuit would sort of "jumble" the electrons up and make them move around within the wire, but not as dramatically as if the circuit were closed.
Shit, I see what he's getting at. It's truly odd that electrostatic and electromagnetic forces are plainly observable to us in everyday life, when they alone represent such a fundamental feature of reality. Why the elbow-room there?...shit.

what happend to great scientists like feynman and jacob bronowski? using there position of great knowledge and understanding, using it in a sensitive respectful way.
Unlike say richard dawkins bashing creationism and coming from a snobbish confrantional approach of complete certainty. i find feynmans way of not brow beating this stuff into are heads just telling his own opinion and nothing else.
@liverloop123 Watch Neil DeGrasse Tyson, he's similar to Sagan and Feynman. Also, lesser known but still just as powerful (at least for me), Leonard Mlodinow; he has a lot of great books. I also like Brian Greene.
@liverloop123 If you think Dawkins comes from a position of complete certainty, you haven't been paying attention. He promotes basic scientific principles like backing up claims with evidence. This is constructive advice that no reasonable person would disagree with. Don't make the mistake of mischaracterizing a great educator just because you don't like his tone.
@FuzzyWhisper Don't get me wrong i think dawkins is a great evolutionist sceintist.I read the greatest show on earth his latest book and think yes when he sticks to the facts it's great informative, but in some parts he gets on his high horse and bashes down any doubters out there which ruined the book for me and to be honest he does have arrogant tone of certainty which in some ways ruined that whole book for me and he should have stuck to the facts and let people make up there minds.
Light can and always do pass through another "beam" of light. If you look at the light as a particle, then its called a photon, as you probably know, and photons are a class of particles called bozons, which one of the features is that two of those can occupy the same space unlike fermions, that cannot. Atom is made out of fermions - electrons, protons, neutrons, and although its 99.99..% empty space, because of enormous electric, reppeling force it seems solid as a whole.

I dont understand why the electrons in an element aren't attracted to the proton in the nucleus until the distance between them is zero? I understand that we use a wave function to determine the orbitals and energy levels that electrons are at, but why dont the electrons literally stick to the protons?
@drmorphine There is a force called the "Strong Nuclear Force" which is even STRONGER than the electromagnetic force, and in the same way gravity acts over "long" distances but is much weaker, the SNF acts over an even SMALLER distance, and yet is even stronger than the electromagnetic force. Related to this is a quantum principle which dictates that energy can only be released in certain "packets." With 90 chars left, to hugely oversimplify, this is considered the "zero" level.
@drmorphine It is related to the quantum nature of tiny matter, the uncertainty principle, the exclusion principle and the conservation of energy. The electron is basically too bouncy and jittery ever to settle down next to the more docile nuclear particles; for one thing, it loses potential energy as it gets closer to the nucleus, which it can only do through gaining kinetic energy (speed) and thus flies off again. Try to Google "Why atoms don't collapse," I found some helpful sites that way.
@drmorphine One way of understanding it is by reference to the uncertainty principle. The principle states that that the position and speed of a particle cannot be simultaneously known with arbitrary precision. If the electron were to stick to a proton, you would know very precisely where it was (i.e., on top of the proton) and how fast it was moving (i.e., hardly moving at all). But the uncertainty principle prohibits such knowledge, which means that the electron can't stick to a proton.
@drmorphine Another way of understanding it is by reference to the electron's wave nature. The electron's wave has a definite, non-zero wavelength. In order to fit the electron's wave around the nucleus, the electron's orbit cannot have a circumference any smaller than the wavelength of its associated wave.
"why dont the electrons literally stick to the protons?"
Normally there is not enough electrostatic potential energy to make this happen. But under certain circumstances, like immense gravity, this could occur, like in neutron stars.

@profit33333 wow. and ur watching something like this...i think u were searching for Ancient Aliens so try a history channel search, u may find it there
Neighbor, its less about trying to sound profound as it is to make the profound sound as easy to understand as you can. You try to sound profound, Feynman tries to explain the profound in simple terms. Thats the huge deifference.
Take into consideration that Richard Feynman was a pioneer of quantum physics. I can understand his need to simplify things to such an extent that it sounds as if he is beating around the topic. Think about explaining the idea of a derivatives to a child in kindergarten you would have to go to such extremes to explain the minute details surrounding the derivative that it would sound as if you were off track, and most children would get bored or distracted. I personally love this guy
i have always thought the question "why" was merely an abstract product of our intelligence and the manner in which our brains operate. it makes sense in terms of intelligent agency but outside that it does not apply.
the universe does what it does as it has always done, just because we have a need for an explanation does not mean the universe is required to provide one.
the best answer anyone can come up with, is a mind wants it to act that way, which is irrational and a non answer
RPF is my inspiration - he's so *cool* in all senses of the word - made me swap good techie career for physics/cosmology study - amazing guy.. thanks voor the vid
@lytrigian I like that part too, and if you listen closely, his mumbled excuse is "...the numbers are too big..." which means that, as ridiculous as the idea of "if I were all electrons" is, he thought it through very quickly and very thoroughly and decided that it was better left alone.
@lytrigian Because the result would likely be a little too dark for his discussion - the pluses of the chair, and the other person in the room, would immediately rip outward toward Feynman, where the huge negative charge pile was. The electrons would likewise repel away from Feynman at ridiculous speeds. Result? Everything close by would quite instantly be ripped apart at the microscopic level.
Come on, Feynman was speaking about religion not about God. Just think he mentions the nature is doing this or that all the time. What is nature anyway?. Don't you think it takes finest intellect to engineer all that stuff around us like atoms, electrons, life?
It's tragic we don't have people like Feynman around anymore. The job of making physics interesting for the general population is left in the hands of retarded dumbfucks like Michio Kaku, who does nothing but getting cocaine-high on the publicity of lies, ridiculous exaggerations and incoherent, self-contradicting technological fantasies, to the point of delusions of grandeur. If only someone in the field would speak out about this, the coming generation takes him seriously because of his Ph.D.
I enjoy watching his publications, though I'd never heard he had such a bad reputation as you suggest. I'll do some research and tell others about what I find.
Always good to fact check. Thanks for the warning.
i love the way he explains everything. it keeps me paying attention from beginning to end. his genius was phenomenal. i wish he was still alive so that i could pick his brain. There so many questions i would ask
@userwl2850 And if I answer "Yes he was smart and yes he believed in God".. how smart does that make you ? He is not talking about God. God is boring.
Categorically not: "t doesn't seem to me that this fantastically marvelous universe, this tremendous range of time and space and different kinds of animals, and all the different planets, and all these atoms with all their motions, and so on, all this complicated thing can merely be a stage so that God can watch human beings struggle for good and evil — which is the view that religion has. The stage is too big for the drama."
He was an atheist and there's a video here on youtube explaining the reasoning behind his views. It's called "The Pleasure of Finding Things Out," but the guy didn't title it that (I think) so it's a bit hard to find. Can't remember what part it is. Look for it, it's really interesting. Basically a biography of his life.
I've often used "god" and "science" interchangeably. What else but science can be a creator of all things? What else determines our actions indefinitely in an omnipresent way?
It really removes the personality effect of theism on the idea of a god while still satisfying the question of where everything came from and why things have happened. This argument, I've found, makes theists very happy.
science is a human study, no thing exists because of interpretation or use, as we humans have it, things are and will ever be what they are, we go our way through to understand to some limit but that limit does not exist, it's out of human logic.
@metalmusi How do you know there is not a limit? There is a perfectly reasonable scenario in which we can explain how everything happens and can be described by mathematical formulas.
Well, first of al it is not something that I know because it is not measured by knowledge, then logic loops when it focus on infinity, and by logic there might not be an answer, then going to a limit would be absurd at the same time it seems that it might not be.....
They don't need to travel to do what he is saying about, just resonate and pass on an effect to the end, which as you probably know happens very quickly!
he said the same sort of thing about forces and distance in the magnet video. i wish i could've had him as a teacher. he makes it so easy to understand.
My first book of his I read was his autobiographical "Surely you must be Joking, Mr. Feynman" Wonderful. Hilarious. I sincerely, recommend it to anyone who finds this interesting.
I just so love this man's mind!

Take into consideration that Richard Feynman was a pioneer of quantum physics. I can understand his need to simplify things to such an extent that it sounds as if he is beating around the topic. Think about explaining the idea of a derivatives to a child in kindergarten you would have to go to such extremes to explain the minute details surrounding the derivative that it would sound as if you were off track, and most children would get bored or distracted. I personally love this guy

i have always thought the question "why" was merely an abstract product of our intelligence and the manner in which our brains operate. it makes sense in terms of intelligent agency but outside that it does not apply.
the universe does what it does as it has always done, just because we have a need for an explanation does not mean the universe is required to provide one.
the best answer anyone can come up with, is a mind wants it to act that way, which is irrational and a non answer

"It's so enormous, that if I were all electrons..."

@lytrigian thats because the number he was thinking of was still too big to be understood!
cyclotane 1 year ago
@lytrigian I like that part too, and if you listen closely, his mumbled excuse is "...the numbers are too big..." which means that, as ridiculous as the idea of "if I were all electrons" is, he thought it through very quickly and very thoroughly and decided that it was better left alone.
Kdirty214 1 year ago 4
@lytrigian Because the result would likely be a little too dark for his discussion - the pluses of the chair, and the other person in the room, would immediately rip outward toward Feynman, where the huge negative charge pile was. The electrons would likewise repel away from Feynman at ridiculous speeds. Result? Everything close by would quite instantly be ripped apart at the microscopic level.

@lytrigian Nope, he said "Nah, the numbers are too big". I wonder what was his idea!

Come on, Feynman was speaking about religion not about God. Just think he mentions the nature is doing this or that all the time. What is nature anyway?. Don't you think it takes finest intellect to engineer all that stuff around us like atoms, electrons, life?

It's tragic we don't have people like Feynman around anymore. The job of making physics interesting for the general population is left in the hands of retarded dumbfucks like Michio Kaku, who does nothing but getting cocaine-high on the publicity of lies, ridiculous exaggerations and incoherent, self-contradicting technological fantasies, to the point of delusions of grandeur. If only someone in the field would speak out about this, the coming generation takes him seriously because of his Ph.D.

Categorically not: "t doesn't seem to me that this fantastically marvelous universe, this tremendous range of time and space and different kinds of animals, and all the different planets, and all these atoms with all their motions, and so on, all this complicated thing can merely be a stage so that God can watch human beings struggle for good and evil — which is the view that religion has. The stage is too big for the drama."
MichaelDemimonde 2 years ago
He was an atheist and there's a video here on youtube explaining the reasoning behind his views. It's called "The Pleasure of Finding Things Out," but the guy didn't title it that (I think) so it's a bit hard to find. Can't remember what part it is. Look for it, it's really interesting. Basically a biography of his life.
iceflame5 2 years ago 2
my best guess is he was either agnostic, deist or atheist ....
his idea of "god" wasnt anything close to the crappy modern idea of god ..
at best i think he was a deist .... god isnt a being , god isnt a creator
to me god is just an idea ...and dependant on what god ....its either a cute idea, a cute metaphor , or a stupid piece of %^$^..
to me "god" is nothing more than a metaphor for kindness ...god doesnt exist ..its illogical to think a personal god would exist.
sidewaysfcs0718 2 years ago 2
I've often used "god" and "science" interchangeably. What else but science can be a creator of all things? What else determines our actions indefinitely in an omnipresent way?
It really removes the personality effect of theism on the idea of a god while still satisfying the question of where everything came from and why things have happened. This argument, I've found, makes theists very happy.
I'm atheist, for the record.

science is a human study, no thing exists because of interpretation or use, as we humans have it, things are and will ever be what they are, we go our way through to understand to some limit but that limit does not exist, it's out of human logic.

@metalmusi How do you know there is not a limit? There is a perfectly reasonable scenario in which we can explain how everything happens and can be described by mathematical formulas.
kcarlsson89 1 year ago
Well, first of al it is not something that I know because it is not measured by knowledge, then logic loops when it focus on infinity, and by logic there might not be an answer, then going to a limit would be absurd at the same time it seems that it might not be.....
