A rather dizzy Professor Bowley sacrifices his well-being in the name of science. More physics at http://www.sixtysymbols.com/

  • I LOVE this and all your videos. I love the unpolished performances, I love the lack of flashy graphics and absence of patronising fluff. It's a sort of traditional style that's done with a modern sense of fun. All power to the fine folks at Nottingham.

  • what is a professor when he spins?

  • I suck at mechanics. :(

  • I want the floating earth

  • spindoctor?

  • @wybo2 well it wouldnt have any momentum then

  • where can i buy that globe?

  • Physics is the most interesting science.

  • So, if i made my wheels massless, i wouldn't be able to ballence it?

  • @Koroistro it "acquires" angular momentum to keep the total momentum the same

    if the wheel is spinning clockwise then he has to spin counterclockwise to keep that angular momentum constant

    I think this is one of the hardest concepts to understand in classical mechanics...

    try to think of it the same way as in linear momentum

  • @brenoakiy so where does the chair take the momentum from?

  • @Koroistro there is no "force" in it...
