I show the two wire meaning of these laws, plus the simplicity of this as a memory aid. Later I discuss how Lenz's law describes mechanical generation, transmission and motor use of electricity.

This is the last video of my series describing the geometry of magnetism. My conclusions are so simple, in retrospect. However, it was a huge three week struggle to get here: no poles, no mono-pole, all magnetic flux is circular, permanent magnets can be modeled as though they have wires, all repulsion and attraction can be modeled as wire to wire and thus flux is more like a contour map than a force vector, and in this video: Faraday's and Lenz's Laws shows electricity can transmit motion, like hydraulics, although motion is not a requirement of electricity.

  • SWEET STATEMENT AT THE END! WHEN I WAS IN COLLEGE FOR ROBOTICS, I READ ALL THE MATERIALS AHEAD, AND TO HELP UNDERSTAND IT ALL BETTER, I HAD TO EXPLAIN IT IN MY OWN WORDS. IT SEEMS TO MAKE THE MIND MAKE SENSE OF ALL THE SMALLER DETAILS THAT SEEM TO BE SKIPPED IN ORDER TO GET THE OVERALL PICTURE AT THE BEGINNING. IF ANY PART WAS HARD TO EXPLAIN, THE MIND WAS FORCED TO FOCUS IN ON IT. CLASS SEEMED LIKE REVIEW, AND BETTER QUESTIONS RESULTED. AND HIGHER TEST SCORES. IT'S BETTER TO GIVE, THAN RECEIVE.

  • @muddymuddymuddmann Thanks for both comments, MUDDy. It is so true that when you try to explain what you know, you learn. Even when I thought I had mastered an idea, I had these numerous long pauses, which I had to edit because I realized something was missing or imprecise about what I was going to say. I think electricity and magnetism is taught grossly incorrectly in school. Everyone is parroting one another, now. In the 1800s there were competing models of thought.

  • @definitionofis THE COMPETING MODELS OF THOUGHT ARE WHAT MADE HISTORY. AT ONE TIME IT WAS SACRILEGE TO STUDY ANATOMY.

    THEY THINK NOW THAT WATER HAS ALL THE SECRETS AND PROPERTIES FOR TELEPORTATION. ALL WATER IS LINKED. WHEN A FLARE ERUPTS ON THE SUN, BACTERIA GO NUTS. 8 AND 1/3rd MINUTES LATER AS THE LIGHT TRAVELS, WE FIND OUT ABOUT IT. SPOOKY QUANTUM ENTANGLEMENT. AND THEY HAVENT EVEN SCRATCHED THE SURFACE OF WATERS PROPERTIES, OR MEMORY. INSTANT TRANSFER OF FLAWLESS INFORMATION

  • @muddymuddymuddmann That's interesting. I am struggling with my next video about rail guns. Explaining them as coulomb repulsion is difficult, so far. I hate to surrender part of my model to just being a useful memory aid. I'll post it when I crack it.

  • @definitionofis BOY THAT STRIKES SOME THOUGHT. I NEVER THOUGHT OF STATIC BEING THAT REPULSIVE OR ATTRACTIVE BY FORCE. SOUNDS LIKE AN UNEXPLORED DIMENSION OF ELECTROMAGNETISM. THE INVISIBLE REALM OF PSYSICS. I'LL PUT THIS ON MY WATCH LIST. YOUR WHOLE SERIES HAS BEEN A UNIQUE EXPLANATION OF MAGNETISM. KEEP UP THE GREAT QUALITY.

  • SORRY ABOUT DWELLING ON THE LAST STATEMENT SO LONG, BUT IT SPARKED A DEEP RESPONSE IN ME. YOUR VIDEOS HAVE GIVEN ME A LOT OF GOOD THOUGHTS TO GO BACK OVER, AND SOME SERIOUS INSIGHT THAT I FIGURE I MISSED ALONG THE WAY. AFTER SERIOUS THOUGHT AND TIME TO DIGEST IT, I REALIZED THAT THE COIL 1000 MILES AWAY DIDNT HAVE 1/2 THE POWER, BUT FULL POWER DUE TO THE SUPER CONDUCTIVITY. THOUGHT, I FIGURE ELECTRONS HAVE MOMENTUM DUE TO ITS' LINK TO MASS AROUND THEM. SOUNDS STRANGE HUH?

    THANKS AGAIN.
