Pendulum Waves

[spencertron88]

It would be fun to derive a differential equation that could represent this wavefunction.. :p

[51235465789]

Fuck dubstep Watch this while listing to HardStyle

[poppypia1]

my 5th grade teacher showed me this exact video!!! Our whole class was like AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[randommusic990]

This is pretty cool-our science teacher showed us this video in class

[anteil95]

watching this to dubstep fits so good

[McXalos]

@anteil95 Watch it to Pendulum music.

[TheFamguyGuy]

Mindfuck.

[blahblibidyblahblah]

this is porn for people who can think

[JackAndTheSparrow]

No-one's mentioned Allen. Great performance, Allen.

[NatSciDemos]

@JackAndTheSparrow Allen says thanks.

[Drake117]

What the H...that is just amazing.

[SniperiusForever]

nice but still i dont know how did i get here from COD :D

[bloodremnants]

man.. this is trippy as hell

[MrThegooddoctor]

Very beautiful and thought provoking. Yes, I like math!

[DarkSnakke]

its awesome!

[ricefarmer88]

steve brought me here!!!!!!!!

[WEDGIE98]

this made me have a squirty poo in the shower...

[MusicTomOttjes]

order in chaos

[Cshapes25]

Steve Terada bought me here. But man was this freaking dope or what !?

[TheLiLegacy]

@Cshapes25 Who the hell is Steve Terada?

[Cshapes25]

@TheLiLegacy search him up. Hes from Quest Crew. Champions of Americas Best Dance Crew Season 3.

[37MKE]

one of the coolest vid I've seen

[sidgar1]

DNA double helix at 0:54

[Numbskull48]

Amazing! Don't understand why swing in different directions when they started at the same time. (Apparently not a geek but likes computer and technology)

[rizhansell]

I'm sure if you had enough time you could play around with number of balls, lengths, etc... I wonder if the measurements they used created a higher number of distinct patterns (i.e. longer sequence) than others.

[THEbaSeFreAK]

that was disgusting :D

[denaligrl88]

that's awesome, kudos to whoever had the patience and drive to make it work!

[KwStaSs17]

mindfuck

[0921Sammy]

I'm a math geek too, and this will take some time to understand.

[ThePipianne]

am I the only one who was searching for music ?

[melrobRTF]

@ThePipianne I am also... did you manage to find it?

[wellDUHitsSarah]

so prettyyyy

[bloodtoth]

Somebody divided by zero...

[im19ice3]

wow fuuuuuuuuuuuuu....

OMG

[TheKendallgreene]

NO FUCKING WAY...WOW!!!!!

[OnBurningPaperWings]

Why did anyone dislike this...

[br0wnprid3209]

@OnBurningPaperWings seriously..

[Capotey]

Hey wait, this isn't DnB at all....

[taltoltal]

I can watch it forever O_O

[DAILEYericCaryUSA]

Dazzling. 5/5

[Pickk111]

Thats Epic

[ishouldplayzelda]

if you want music to accompany this video, look up a phase song by steve reich. i like reed phase but you can listen to any of his stuff like six pianos or fandango phase. think of something like in this video but in song form. crazy huh?

[PIMI1279]

Terrific! Simple physics! Excellent!!!

[265HITMAN265]

Dam this experiment was precise, that dance took 60 seconds after which it repeated itself, therefore each must of had a specific frequency over 60 seconds

[OnBurningPaperWings]

@MrBINDEL Tres, TRES impressionant :3

[BlurnGanston]

Brilliant. Thank you.

[mideyah92]

how long does.it go.before it stop

[seekeroftruth06]

cool,,( seemingly ) random ;) agreed

[1sweetharmony555]

this should have music to it :)

[1337soldiahs]

So we meet again, science.

[saturn666rmv]

I . . Fuucking. . WaNT ONE!!!! D:- !

[firelord9000]

which drug am i on?

[BlurnGanston]

@firelord9000 Nature? :-)

[rcarroll98]

trippy

[AlyssonHell]

60 people did throw up.

[tiagodgsoares]

do you know any online shop where I can buy it?

[Hypastpist]

IM TOTALLY TRIPPIN HERE!

[MrSubuti]

what kind of sorcerery is this!

[chynna322]

@alquiora I'm sorry if I find this cool, maybe its because I am a math geek who is taking geometry honors... So please leave me to enjoy my life. Btw I have a mentally disabled friend so watch what you say, it can be offensive to people.

[60Writergirl]

@chynna322 no, I think it's cool.

[Markyparky56]

How long would it go on for?

[vilyr1]

@M

[Mdogthefirst]

@Markyparky56 Ideally, forever. But this is not an ideal situation as there is air resistance. It would end up stopping in the end.

[265HITMAN265]

@Markyparky56 y dont u calculate it

[chynna322]

My math teacher showed me this, it is sssooooo amazing!!!

[alquiora]

@chynna322 retard get real

[Forestkeeper7852]

you must be pretty high to enjoy all those movessss

[Cissurz]

oooh por dios :S estoy muy drogado para entender esto

@fafacundo

[JubbaTheHott]

all glory to the hypnotoad....

[JBNemeth]

How can we see any clearer, isn't it just so like the depiction of how waves/vibrations affect one another and evolve? ... at one point it looked like a strand of DNA. Quite symbolic and self-interpretive.

[lexiskramer229a]

This video went viral on Port Louis

[MeloloB]

thats beautiful

[LeeGWerner]

Cool

[jerryprolux]

looks like a dance

[sizzlerjoe1]

Just keep an eye on one throughout, then choose another...

Then see all, you can notice the fractal motion at their different time lengths, each has it's own, yet added together, time is seen as a fractational motion-that NATURALLY goes--

FULL CIRCLE... Play it in slow motion... Fractals are throughout nature from a snail shell, to a single tree's growth then the whole forest to galaxy stellar rotation..

[smithree7733]

Hypnotized

Paths through the aether....

[AxelitoEl]

amazing



[Squeeonline]

I wonder if this could be translated into some kind of hypnotic music.

[itworkss]

I think that we could learn a lot about life from this.

[mastamcmastaman]

this is going right to the top of my watch while high list

[michaeledelstone]

i like it when the pendulums swing

[svele555]

thumb up if stumble got you here! 

[baigmirzasarwar]

It is not a random motion rather SHM (Simple Harmonic Motion)

[vagranthought]

Pretty sure I was just hypnotized for the first time

[lifaru]

awesome

[bostonredsox121]

It's so much better when you squint your eyes

[KingKoopa98]

i like the part where it looks like its trippy. thats the best.

[siperdo]

Now all you need is a vacuum to do this in so that the air doesn't affect them or cause an effect on one another.

[Shaidyn]

There is some incredible math at play there.

[skyerror]

that's the most interesting thing I've ever seen balls do.

[BrianH1988]

@skyerror Haha! I got a good laugh at your comment.

[DraconLe2]

Just take my money, please!

[runkfish]

I LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!

[Glasgowryan]

WOW, who would've thought science and weed would go so well together. lol

Amazing video

[TimMc333]

I swear I could watch this for hours… Oh yeah, we might need a bigger pendulum…

[ZidaneFTW]

SCIENCE BITCHES!

Stumble Win!

[bobpeters61]

Simple, but really cool. Nice.

[baztex101]

Cool!!!!!!!!

this is how DNA started

[Hunderworld]

It looks like Onyx listening to dubstep.

[floridafishing1219]

i got a headache

[tanhauserr]

What I want to know is why, at almost exactly one minute, they return to their original swinging pattern. What about the lengths (and perhaps the number of pendulums swinging) cause this to occur and could we adjust these numbers to change the time in which they begin the pattern again? Say, we wanted to change it to forty five seconds, or seventy five- what would we change?

[NatSciDemos]

@tanhauserr you would have to change their lengths.

[jrbradf]

@NatSciDemos or just how far you pulled them back before the initial release

[Haxpatty]

@NatSciDemos But also keep the same distance ratio between each length of string to provide the same consistent frequency :)

[Haxpatty]

@Haxpatty This is so cool :)

[Corporatist]

@NatSciDemos This is the answer to the universe.

[aibok42]

@tanhauserr Must be the LCM of their periods. A 2-second and a 3-second one would sync every 6 seconds. Add a 5s one, it becomes 30s. It doesn't matter how many you add, there's still a LCM and thus an eventual return to the straight line. (Note how at +30s (LCM/2) you have two opposing lines and at +20 and +40s (LCM/3), three.)

[tanhauserr]

@aibok42 This was the most helpful response, thank you. Made a lot more sense this way.

[MatthewSenemar]

@tanhauserr It's returning to the original point of oscillation. Look up a sin curve it'll give you a better idea.

[roadnick]

@tanhauserr You know when you're sitting at a stop light waiting to turn, and the car in front of you has a turn signal that's not quite the same speed as yours? It goes from being in-synch to not being in-synch, and then in again.

With a regular graduation like this, the length of time of these cycles is related to the difference in length between the first and the last pendulum. So to make things shorter, you'd slant it less. To make it longer, slant it more.

[YOMAMAXXL]

@tanhauserr no shit, son.

[animaulet]

@tanhauserr The lenght of the strings have to be multiples, so after some time they reach again the same point. I have to try this at home xD

[sizzlerjoe1]

@tanhauserr fractal motion always repeats itself throughout nature, speed is irrelevant. length of motion on a string in gravity as here has absolute balance because gravity acts the exact same for each motion, slowing each one at the exact same rate according to string length. This would be the same in a vacuum because the gravity here is in one direction only.

[rowmaterial]

im i the only one who thook they were on a mush trip -.o?

[BuzzDyou]

Excellent!! when I first saw your "trap-eze" I thought you were going to use them like clik-clacks, your idea was waaaaaaay better. Gravity and the earth's rotation is wondurful thing.

When I was teen, somebody was selling "Pendulum-Sand-Art" tables..one pointed surveyers pendant and a parabolic table of silica sand...it made designs similar to a toy we had back then called a "Spiro-graph"---sand art was much easier than geared ellipses with a ball point pen. subbed, great werx!! lat'r Buzz

[TheTanvi13]

WOW. MINDBLOWN.

[inkheart1414]

Wow, to a musician, this is almost like a visualization of a very long polyrhythm.

[Hetaonifan]

I kind of want to see what it looks like from the front.....

[MrPantslad]

IM THROWING MY MONEY AT MY SCREEN AND ITS STILL NOT IN MY POSSESION!!

[jeremyfinch]

the visual correlation to things you wanted me to see happened in my brain. the concomitant neurons fired and i felt the deja vu, but it felt like a tickle in my brain i couldnt scratch. please, just spell it out to me! WHAT DOES IT MEAN?! the relationship to the helix were obvious, but is it just a paradox? is it meant to just appear chaotic, but is really controlled? does this prove intelligent design? this feels like God hinting at one of His mysteries.

[dubBOOBYTRAPstep]

@jeremyfinch No, no it doesnt 

[Sandraydon]

es kommt bei dem versuch nur auf die länge an ;)

[SayyoSaZ]

All we need now is some Dubstep

lools like DNA in motion

[AugustoCardosoMoraes]

that's so cool

[neilyoooo2]

if youre not stoned out of your mind when you watch this, youre doing it wrong

[turbodub501]

@neilyoooo2 haha!!!

[spidermew]

I love this video, I was wondering if it was possible to get this video at a higher framerate. I bet the youtube 30 fps limit doesn't do this video much justice.

[LuKeSpEnCe10]

Beat that Newton !!

[cyberPATROL88]

O.O +.+... hypnotic! :O

[Tcrrtheguy]

Are you a wizard?

[masteircheef]

@Tcrrtheguy you spelt it wrong, its r u a wiz0rd

[Tcrrtheguy]

@masteircheef You are wrong too,

the correct spelling according to every "Meme" Picture it is, "ARE YOU A WIZARD".

"Wiz0rd" srsly?

[masteircheef]

@Tcrrtheguy memes? what? i didnt know that was a meme! lol i started saying that to my friends a while back and next thing i know its a meme

[Tcrrtheguy]

@masteircheef Its VERY old.

lol..

[masteircheef]

@Tcrrtheguy i need to catch up with my memes xD

[Tcrrtheguy]

@masteircheef Its easy, Go visit "Reddit" and stay there for a few hours each day.

Should help with memes

[YouShotMyRobot]

I'm trippin' out man
