📺 Crash Course: Electricity
At the end of the Eighteenth Century electricity and magnetism were well known but completely mysterious. By the end of the Nineteenth Century their coupled nature was described by clear mathematical laws and they had become part of modern life with electric generators powering electric light and more and more conveniences in the rapidly industrializing world. In this video Hank Green recounts the story of how the mysteries of electricity and magnetism were unlocked.
I think this crash course is a very interesting way for me to gain knowledge on the topic of electricity. I knew about the introduction to electricity with the key-kite experiment however, I am glad to have gained some additional information this subject because I find its interesting to see great examples/the process of explanation by Mr. Green. Especially since my vocabulary was incredibly limited prior to learning about this its nice to know the entire definitions.
this crash course broke down the topic of electricity very well and offered are and better understanding. some of the key experiments to all of science come from electrical experiments conducted by these scientist.
This crash course broke down electricity more for me, and helped me understand it better and all the people that made electricity what it is today.
I really enjoyed this crash course. I had always thought about how the electrification of the modern world began. And this video broke it down very well in an easily understood manner.
Crash course’s do a great job at explaining things in depth, especially with this video. Coming from all the way back then, it created a level for more scientific research. There are many forms of electricity, and personally I have experienced many forms first hand. To explain more, I am into building computers and when building, you need to wear a bracelet to “ground” yourself so the static electricity does not shock the computer components.
It is interesting to learn about the hard work and determinations of these inventors that eventually led to the development of electricity. Additionally, this video makes me wonder what the inventors called the phenomena they were studying before it was labeled “electricity”? Overall, I really enjoyed this video and think its interesting to learn about electricity and how it came about, especially since most of our modern world has been revolutionized by it. I also think many of us do not appreciate the commodity of electricity until we are without it. I know I don’t anyways.
we had come a far away, from a kite and lightning to distributing electricity around the world in millions of houses. many of the dissucutions in this article i never knew before,
Crash courses make some really enjoyable content and break things down from all angles. I have seen so many videos from Hank Green it is almost like I had him as a teacher in school from what he has taught me. When electricity was first being studied we didn’t know much, in present-day, it is amazing how far we have come. From experiments, technology, math and science it is amazing how electricity is used all day every day and we don’t even think about the depth we went to discover this.
This crash course definitely increased my knowledge about electricity. The key experiments that were presented made me understand the principles of electricity a lot more.
It’s crazy to think how far we have come and the advancements we have made since electricity was first discovered. I enjoyed this video and thought it was interesting to learn about all the experiments and inventions that lead up to where we are today.
so cool to see how far we have come with electricity and how we have come so far to even distributing electricity to almost everywhere in the world.
