How Science Changed the Way we can Store Energy

Use Code dfasgydhxb to get:

Today we explore the capacitor, an electric part which can store an electric charge without the use of additional batteries or anything of that sort! We go through an experiment exploring the discharge curve of a capacitor and see how the discharge behaves when we increase the amount of resistance. Enjoy! =D

2:32 You've already failed to prove yourself as a physicist with that mathy chulkboard instead of a true physicist's whiteboard

Man as an Engineering Student I used to hate making these protocols in highschool, it’s like a nostalgia feeling looking back since the circuits will never be as simple as then

[abhijithcpreej]

Seeing his actual interest in the formulation of the equation, I think he'll love integrators and differentiators using op-amps

im loving this student series, it really brings back memories of when i did high school

Flammable physics, what is the ratio of a circle's diameter to its circumference?

[Lttmtf]

Really loved this one. You mentioned your students watching this video, so I'm curious if the average student would speak enough english to understand it.

The sounds get more and more amazing each time

Really refreshing to see you make physics-related content in this new format! I would like to see more!

Induction is in coils. It comes from "induce". It is a changing magnetic field that induces a voltage in a wire which is in the field.

Commenting to boost, and because this to me looks like a very good experimental introduction to capacitance for Grade 12 and I would like to see how you design these more experimental lessons. :D

very cool, papa! brilliant way to unwind after a long day of work.

I believe capacitors were considered by Maxwell to modify Ampère's law, which contributed to his theory on electromagnetic waves.

Liking and commenting for the traction big guy

[Karkss]

Commenting for the algorithm. Also as someone who is a little more of a fellow physicist than a fellow mathematician, I am contractually obligated to like and subscribe after being told good morning =/

6:00 ; one thing, how can positive charges move? Aren't electrons the only one that can move?

[oni]

You should make a video solving for the time-domain solution of an LC oscillator circuit

[timothyaugustine]

LOL you lost me at the "transformitter" part

Madame Marie-Anne Sochon thank you for giving birth to Pierre Simon Laplace

[Mortgageman]

Sorry, just a stone cold fact of life
