Center of Mass

How to find the center of mass

[callumscott]

amazing. not just your teaching ability but also your ability to write backwards so easily

[arunsharma]

very well explained sir. Even I don't know English properly but I completely understand your lecture. Thanks 😘

[GoodMrSquare]

thanks mr anderson my test is in 2 hours and this is the first time im learning this👍👍

[Husam.dheisat]

such astonishing explaining for the center of mass concept. Great teacher

I love how this video is like 7 years old, and even now I was like, how does he do that? the writing?? so obviously I looked in the comment section to find if anybody else was confused about it too - and there was :D learning glass - it is genius! You explained the topic very well and clear sir, thank you very much!

A must watch vid for serious physics Trs. Well done

[VINAYE]

Ur so good at it

Respect from India

Sir what wonderfull lecture
Can plz .. demonstrate it completely in practical

[pravinmerpravinmer]

I very empress and enjoy your video very well.
Your explanation is very different.
Thanks sir

HOW ARE YOU DOING THIS?  ARE YOU WRITING BACKWARDS ....IS YOUR CLASS IN FRONT OF YOU? ARE YOU LEFT-HANDED

I am confused by your solution as it only accounts for 2 out of the 3 dimensions of each rock I've had to dig out in order to plant shrubs. They all certainly had a height, a length and a width. Together, these 3 dimensions helped me estimate the volume of material that I had yet to remove or if I could quit digging. Maybe your rock is uniform in one dimension? I must agree that in any case, if you can balance that tater-rock on one end like you did, the center of mass may be discovered somewhere above the point at the base. So, how can I tell where the center of mass is actually located?


Love your work BTW!

How did he write everything in reverse order to his students to view the board properly?

Can you explain mathematically why we can always find a line through a lamina (eg a horizontal line y=a in some coordinate system on the lamina) such that the moments on either side of this line sum to zero. It's intuitively obvious physically (hanging plumb lines etc) but I just can't prove this mathematically. The mathematics involves the integral of all the moments of every point mass of the lamina on either side of such a line, putting this integral equal to zero and solving for the coordinate of the centre of mass. But why can we always assume we can put such an integral equal to zero in the first place.

This is a great video for the derivation of the formula and understanding of the concept. However, there is one thing that I am struggling to grasp if someone could help me understand. Why do we multiply the mass by the position?.

Hi Matt, Do you have any videos to find the center of mass for a cuboid, with objects of different sizes are mounted inside the cuboid. Typically an electrical panel with various Electrical protection components mounted?

[oneinabillion]

Hi, so what will be the limits for dm? I can't grasp the idea of differential mass. Pls help

[amanbajracharya]

So the students were looking at the inverted "things" on the board?

HA!! I've been thinkin about my Karins this whe section of our own class lecture. I knew it🤓😏Been practicing my Physics for years now, ya'll
😎 Like a pro.
