Seestar S50 Equatorial Mount: Addendum
In this video, we describe three small improvements to our equatorial mount (ua-cam.com/video/9Pgy4dHBgA4/v-deo.html) for the Seestar S50. All three save time and aggravation in using the mount, and all three simply involve locking existing screws into place. In a separate video (ua-cam.com/video/ObM6bGUChFE/v-deo.html), we show how to polar align the Seestar and how to orient it to the equatorial view of the sky so you can use the Seestar app to find and track objects automatically.
Materials needed are:

In this video, my son Reynold, "King of the Dark," and I (Boyd Edwards) brave the elements to show how to polar align our equatorially mounted Seestar (see ua-cam.com/video/9Pgy4dHBgA4/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/Xs4v44iD9W8/v-deo.html), and how to orient the Seestar to the equatorial view of the sky so you can use the Seestar app to find and track objects automatically, the same as you wou...

Coriolis Carousel: Safety
Переглядів 1,9 тис.11 місяців тому
This video discusses safety considerations in using the Utah State University Coriolis Carousel, which was designed and built by Boyd Edwards, John Edwards, and Reynold Edwards for a Science Unwrapped lecture on January 19, 2024 sponsored by the USU College of Science. The carousel is robust, collapsible, and portable, and can be used on any smooth, flat surface without damage to the surface. B...
Coriolis Carousel: Demo
Переглядів 6 тис.11 місяців тому
This video shows how the Coriolis force can be seen and felt on a rotating platform, called the Utah State University Coriolis Carousel. As seen by riders on this carousel, balls that are passed between them and dumbbells that they thrust forward are deflected sideways. Discussed are: (a) applications for motion on the earth's surface, (b) how this force arises when transforming Newton's second...

Kepler's Laws (8.10)
Переглядів 2,4 тис.4 роки тому
In this video, I show that Isaac Newton's three laws, when coupled with his universal law of gravitation, give Kepler's three laws, a feat that Newton accomplished in 1687 in his Principia. I also show that the periods and semimajor axes of planetary and asteroid orbits obey Kepler's third law to high precision. The result is one of the most profound and historically significant results in phys...

    Don't do it! I cringe when people do this. Even ZWO don't advise placing it on an equatorial mount, you're going to void the warranty! . The gearing inside are plastic and over time the drive mesh will wear away, and all you will end up with is an expensive door stop.

    Hello! I don't like the fact that the bob has some negative potential energy, -mgL, when it's at its equilibrium position (I understand it's arbitrary, but it's not very intuitive to lift the bob to the x-axis and declare it has zero potential energy! Not to mention, lifting it directly vertical and declaring it has but mgL potential energy when it is 2L away from the equilibrium position is also awkward). I would rather we write the potential as U = mgL(1-cos(θ)), where h = L-Lcos(θ). This gives us zero potential energy at equilibrium, mgL potential at the x-axis, and mg2L when vertical.

    Hey thank you so much! I don’t know what exactly I’m looking for so if someone could help me with search terms? I have chronic pain, no core strength, and I believe things are shifting that contribute to me having less balance. I love to bounce, squat, dance, swing around, anything like that. I have even more fun experimenting with the fluidity of my body when I’m drunk and am not held back by my pain :P I would be more flexible if pain didn’t hold me back too :) I just want to find more activities that I could do that have the same feeling

  • @Musiclover5258

    Great lecture series, thank you!! I had some initial confusion which resolved itself - may be worth sharing with fellow learners. I was thinking, even if the train moves at a constant velocity (hence in an inertial reference frame) and the traveler observes a free falling object - detached from the body of the train - in front, then it will appear to be coming towards him. On further thought, the distinction is the following. In the above description, the mass is initially kept attached to the body of the train till being dropped. So, in the constant velocity scenario the mass has already acquired the velocity of the train, so the traveler inside will observe it to be falling straight down upon being dropped. However, in the acceleration scenario (non-inertial reference S), he will still observe the mass to be rushing towards him upon being dropped.

    One problem I am struggling to wrap my head around, is why a 60W bulb glows brighter than a 100W when wired in series, specifically. Our prof made us do this experiment, but the explanation is still unclear to me. Resistance is greater across the 60W....but why would that make it burn *brighter* ?
