9/11 question... Do you know why a feather and a bowling ball dropped in a vacuum from the same height at the same time will reach the ground at the same time? The answer is because while in free fall they both weigh exactly the same, zero weight, and there is no force acting on them. So where did the weight and the force come from to destroy the twin towers when all of that weight was supported for 30 years? The NIST answer --> "Since the stories below the level of collapse initiation provided little resistance to the tremendous energy released by the *falling* building mass, the building section above came down **essentially in free fall**, as seen in videos"...But free fall means not **falling**, and it also means no weight, and no force. --> ukposts.info/have/v-deo/fWRkYXmdrKF2yKc.html

@davidmudry5622Рік тому
Question, is saying "dynamic effects" in this NIST document the same as saying "dynamic weight"? My understanding is that objects falling "essentially in free fall" would have very little weight of any kind with respect to their "static weight", or any falling objects that do not "slow" as they fall, can only have a maximum weight of a "static weight"? Am I right or wrong? NIST WTC Towers FAQ 31...? Quote word for word... "Since the stories below the level of collapse initiation provided little resistance to the tremendous energy released by the falling building mass, the building section above came down *essentially in free fall*, as seen in videos. As the stories below sequentially failed, the falling mass increased, further increasing the demand on the floors below, which were unable to arrest the moving mass." "In other words, the momentum falling on the supporting structure below, which was designed to support only the static weight of the floors above and not any dynamic effects due to the downward momentum, so greatly exceeded the strength capacity of the structure below that the structure below was unable to stop or even to slow the falling mass. The downward momentum grew larger directly proportional to the increasing falling mass." Now can you envision a falling bottle that falls faster and faster and at the same time the water squirts out harder and harder? This is what the USA government is telling you happened on 9/11.

The falling water bottle was an awesome way to demonstrate the equivalence principle. Brian Greene mentions very quickly that the curvature in time as well as space is important and doesn't go into it more, but he means something like this: the rubber sheet represents spatial curvature and you can slice spacetime so you have many copies of the rubber sheet stacked together. Moving forward through time forces you to move upward through the stack, but the *true* time direction you experience gets pulled slightly inward by gravity, so your overall motion arises as the combination of both space AND time bending toward the sun.
@shcxatter25 років тому
Steven Kapturowski Holy shit, thank you for that comment! It made me think deeper into the problem, and I think I finally got it! So basically, it's like time is just another spacial dimension, in which we are moving with constant velocity(which we preceive as time passing by) at all times, and the curvature, which mass produces, extends into the future(which is basically just a direction if we consider time as a spacial dimension), and the fact that objects with mass get drawn into that curvature is due to that constant movement in time!

Space time is freaky.
@jmcsquared185 років тому
It's even stronger than that.

Spatial curvature contributes to more exotic effects like lensing and black hole dynamics.
@MrFlameRad5 років тому
@@jmcsquared18 exactly I was just going to explain that. For the most part, gravity is just matter bending space so that relative to spacetime curvature, you're actually not moving through space at all but only through time when you and another object of mass accelerate towards one another.

"So Albert Einstein says that space-time is a 4-dimensional hausdorff differential manifold, on which a metric tensor is imposed that solves the Einstein field equations, and that metric tensor gives rise to geodesics, and objects that are not experiencing any other force will move along the geodesics described by that metric." In case you wanted to look anything up. ;)

@@guptadagger896 The "line with a double point" (two copies of the real number lines identified except at the origin) is a differentiable manifold but not Hausdorff.

I love Colbert's segments in science on his show. It's always very interesting.

Brian's water bottle example helped me understand the equivalence principle a lot easier. That less than 30-second explanation at the end made my head explode!

Yup, except of course that Tony Stark was just making shit up and Greene isn't!

Wasn't he speaking in english already?
@kevokoma8 років тому
can anyone tell me the episodes where he interviews or has guests that aren't celebrities(basically people who will waste my time)? This was informative and I'd like to see more.
@gnrld8 років тому
You'd be surprised as to what kind of insights some of the celebrities actually bring to the table. They're not all just eye candy and gossip.
@Jakecmuir8 років тому
+kevokoma Yeah most celebrities are celebrities for a reason especially actors who have honed their craft to a phenomenal and mind bending level.
@jimy57528 років тому
+kevokoma You should watch the one with Pewdiepie. It will change your life. His best guest so far.
@pierzing.glint1sh768 років тому
+kevokoma you dont want your time wasted, dont watch a comedy show you plonker
@spderweb8 років тому
+kevokoma Pretty much every episode, he does the Daily Show style routine, has a celebrity, and then has a political person, or science person on. it's a mix. He basically turned the late show into The Daily Show.

I watched this video when I was in high school or in the first year of my undergrad. Today, UKposts recommended me this video again, and now I can understand what Brian Greene's last sentence means. I'm a second year graduate student, and I feel good.

"let me just lean into my ignorance of what your saying to me"-- We should all be so bold.
@tristantipton36416 років тому
Wow, to think that 4 years ago I would have had no idea what Brian Greene was saying when he was speaking about differential geometry and general relativity. I guess I can say I’m fairly proud of myself for having come this far in my education.

amazing chemistry between the presenter and the professor, boy I love science and Einstein scores so high in my book!

Holy shit, I’ve come along so far in my physics career I finally understand what brain said. I saw this when I was an undergrad and didn’t understand a word of what he said in the end.
