Physics on Khan Academy: Physics is the study of the basic principles that govern the physical world around us. We'll start by looking at motion itself. Then, we'll learn about forces, momentum, energy, and other concepts in lots of different physical situations. To get the most out of physics, you'll need a solid understanding of algebra and a basic understanding of trigonometry.
About Khan Academy: Khan Academy offers practice exercises, instructional videos, and a personalized learning dashboard that empower learners to study at their own pace in and outside of the classroom. We tackle math, science, computer programming, history, art history, economics, and more. Our math missions guide learners from kindergarten to calculus using state-of-the-art, adaptive technology that identifies strengths and learning gaps. We've also partnered with institutions like NASA, The Museum of Modern Art, The California Academy of Sciences, and MIT to offer specialized content.

Hey i got a question in 4:43 he says the electrons are stuck there in the insulator .actually where does he exactly explain why? I mean why these extra charges we added can not move??what stops them

Pretty good explanations but don't feel bad if you tend to get a bit confused because David keeps switching between different definitions for things. i.e. when discussing negative charge he starts using electrons interchangeably when an electron is NOT a negative charge, an electrical is a particle that HAS the property of charge that is negative.
“Phew okay glad that that’s over” 😂
9:20 love the wireless charging tutorial
Plz make a video about how a battery creates a potential difference. Make video and plzzzzz teach in detail because I love to know about all these things
you are awesome!
Excellent Lecture. Thank you. Question? Vacuum is an insulator, correct? Then how come a beam of electrons were moving from anode to cathode in the vacuum tube of the JJ Tomson experiment? Thank you
Even in insulators if you add negatives charges, they get added to the conduction band where they can move around, since when solids form the bands fuse together to form a CONTINUOUS conduction band, right?
What happens when you rub two initially neutral charge conductors together? Both conductors are disks. My thought is since conductors allow electrons to move easily throughout, the process of frictional charging will move the electrons from one disk to the other. Thus, leaving one disk(A.) positively charged and the other disk(B.) negatively charged.
do you think you could make a video about how a battery works plz?
very good explanations
10:44 “Let me get the heck out of here” 😂😂😂
Insulators can be negatively charged by adding electrons. The electrons then will be stuck. But how can insulators be positively charged if The atoms ( electrons and protons ) are bound together ( I mean they can't lose electrons)??
why excess charge will remain at the initial location of charging in insulators?
simply and clearly explained, thank you.
At 6:10 The negative charges just move to the edges only due to escape repulsion but if more negative charges are added to the conductor, won't the negative charges on the edges be closer enough to repel eachother?
@marjaan2657

Even if the amount of charge increases, they'll still repel and be closer than what was in the video since there's more charge. Is that what you were referring to?
Thank you
Difference between shaped conductor and round conductor ?

10:45 we stated earlier that the electrons in the insulator couldn't move freely, but now they can all just leave???

My thoughts too.
so if you use insulators to cause charge in a superconductor... how do you do it? might be done by whirling something around in a cyclone, or whirlwind... could be like a dryer in effect... point is; what are we willing to try?
Why is it that the current in the circuit remains unchanged if we keep a resistor in it
Cool
why conductor is a variable resistance?
Good
Thanks dude you help me get A for my test👍
extra charge on insulator is stationary. But when we add electrons , there must be repulsions and attractions then why the charge is stationary
@nsai3757

it is due to the electrons don't have energy levels to jump off from one atom to another atom, this property is seen in materials and this material is called INSULATORS!!! and even inside or outside if anyone add electrons , they'll stick there , if there is net/unbalanced force is happening , naturally polarization happens and takes care of it.
Thank you so much!!! :)
Why would added electrons be stuck in one place in the insulator? It doesn't seem obvious. They are not bound to any atom, why wouldn't they roam?
Why don't the electrons repel each other in an insulator?

They get fixed in a postion in which they can be comfortable... Yea they repel each other and try there best to be away and the sit in a position but can't jump off as they are fixed in a place as the video explains.

QUESTION(pls answer) Sir, I wanted to know why are conductors charged only on the surface and not on the inside . So, is the answer because the free electrons escape and accumulate at the edges and on the surfaces? Am I correct? If not, please explain me.
@ExplainIttoMe_1

Akashdeep Singh When excess charge is placed on a conductor, they will repel each other. Because charges are free to move on a conductor, they move to get as far apart as possible, which is the surface of the object. Hope that helps.

Charged means more amount of electrons then proton or more proton then electrons. Inside a conductor there is an equal amount of electrons and protons something more electrons. When we will add more electrons those new added electrons will not be able to go inside the atom and the older electrons will push the new ones to the far edges of the object thus creating more electrons on that side then protons. PS wasy bahi ki angrazy kesi lagi?
i love your video i
One question: if you didn't cut the connecting wire to the ground, then would the charges on the conductor still redistribute themselves? If so, am I correct to assume that then electrons would move from the ground to the conductor to neutralise its charge and be grounded again?
Why a bulb does not glow if one end through which electrons can reach the bulb is connected to the battery and not the other??? Because in this case also, electrons can move to the bulb and provide their energy to the bulb
@kumargaurav1772

Because the electrons are happy inside the battery and don't wanna leave. In scientific terms, there is no potential difference. If you can, there is also emf. The electrons move inside the battery from negative terminal to the positive terminal, they don't just sit there doing nothing. When wire is connected, it provides an alternate and easier path for them to reach the +ve terminal. But if you connect only one end, there is no alternate path. So electrons don't move. Edit: I think i should have just said, "Because there is no +ve charge attracting them", nvm.

At 1:00 when you said that the “positively charged nucleus is fixed,” is that where the ‘bound’ charge comes into play? -Inb4 Studying for my final which is 8 hours away

Metals cannot be insulators but non metals can, such as graphite which is bonded up with carbon atoms and due to a delocalized electron, it can conduct electricity
