Physics of toys- Cup Flyers // Homemade Science with Bruce Yeany

Plastic, foam or paper cups can easily be made into indoor flying objects that demonstrate the force that causes curveballs, golf balls and many other examples to curve due to the Magnus effect. A variety of sizes and variables can can this simple experiment into a fun and educational learning experience.

    Mr. Yeany I found your channel a few days ago and I've been going through your videos, watching a few every day, and I have to say you're awesome. You're enthusiastic, and that's something I think, overall, a lot of teachers and professors don't give their students/colleagues. In each and every video I can see how excited you are by all these concepts. Keeping the enthusiasm for science and physics alive in middle and high school is soooo important!! Keep it up!

    One problem you didn't include is the difficulty of teaching students who do not speak English (at least here in the USA). The problem is only worsened by policies that enable the students to avoid learning English. They graduate functionally illiterate, don't care, and neither do their families seem to care. The answer is NOT to hire bilingual teachers and office staff. The answer is to compel these students to have a proper command of English, just as we would have to learn proper French if we planned to live in France.

  • @mikefule330
    @mikefule3304 жыл бұрын

    The most useful part of this as a physics demo is when you fire it on a vertical axis. It curves sharply to the side but drops very quickly to the ground. This proves that the distance covered in the "normal" orientation is because of the lift generated by the rotation, rather than just by the ballistic effect of being catapulted. Excellent.

    Brilliant demonstration. That is called the Magnus effect and at the start of the century they tried to propel a ship with it for if those cups are rotated and placed in the wind they will create a side or a lateral force. Mr Bruce Yeany, congratulations, you should show that demonstration to young footballers for that is the method to score a goal from a corner shot or a free kick with a lot of players acting as a barrier for the shot. All young footballers should know about the Magnus effect for they could score if they only know how and where to kick a ball. That should be taught to all children for playing with a ball, is not just play , but it is pure science and if one models it with mathematics well one can have so many artistic trajectories. Well done Mr Yeany.
