The experiment that revealed the atomic world: Brownian Motion

the human mind absolutely breaks trying to really comprehend the scale of the universe, at either end!!

They jiggle because they want to.

Epic Steve Mould

Anus mirror balls 🍑🪩🕺

Smoke, vapors, and clouds move in the same manner.

I’m doing a Brownian motion as we speak.

Some would argue that it was in fact Democritus who in fact invented the Atom. A couple thousand years ago.

What a brabble, this is microscopic, no one can see atoms haha, and they never will... hahaha

It’s interesting because I first saw Brownian motion in the little floaters in our eyes, I know it’s not a perfectly isolated system and that’s why it would be very hard to discern but whenever I see floaters I can see them jiggle ever so slightly up and down similarly to Brownian motion, these floaters are also similarly sized as polen ranging from a few micrometers to millimeters. I know that current and micro expressions in the face or even slight muscle movement would cause turbulence in the fluid in the eye so it’s not something I swear by but just a cool thought.

Particles outgassing?

To believe atoms, they make up everything.

I was completely fascinated by Brownian motion when I first learned about it and I’m still fascinated. I love that you can actually see the effect of submicroscopic particles on microscopic objects. It’s like a window into the unseen.

Great Scott!

Holy chit I understand 😮

So everything, even what we perceive as empty space, is filled with atoms?

Doc brown is genius. He went on and invented the flux capacitor

I fought valiantly and managed to resist making a poop joke

but I could not resist telling you that I resisted telling a poop joke

I love brownies

Wouldn't the three syringes have different pressures?

That Einstein guy sounds pretty smart

Einstein was so full of shit!

anus mirabel lol...... I won't stop lauging about it... Do you think some viewer won't see the joke ?

i have no idea who you are, but keep it up

the wohrd 😂

Fake, everybody knows young Einstein discovered how to split atoms while trying to give beer bubbles. Theres a documentary......

Oddly enough, I realised the implication of Brownian Motion when twerking was big a few years ago and I'm even not a physicist.

"anus mirror balls" out of nowhere 🤣

Thanks for a quick refresher on moles, Avogadro's number and Brownian motion. I had forgotten some of all that.

Please, Einstein has nothing to do with it, stop giving him credit for things he didn't do.

Just mentioning Einstein makes for an annoyingly effective call for cranks and loony pseudoscientists. Even people that reject atomic theory, apparently.

Da pena ajena esa alabadera de ese ícono comercial (einstein) prefabricado por una Elite codiciosa que solo causó daño a la sociedad y al sistema educativo con sus elucubraciones absurdas. Actualmente muchos se quejan de las aberraciones sociales que ocurren a diario en la sociedad, y el colapso social a nivel mundial, y parece que nadie se percata que precisamente gente como Einstein y su grupito de aberrados fueron los que contribuyeron mayormente a la actual crisis social mundial con sus aberraciones que tanta influencia han tenido gracias a una mercadotecnia masiva. Más detalles al respecto en mi-canal. Finalmente, hay que decir que ese movimiento Browniano puede ser explicado de manera totalmente diferente y con mayor veracidad. Si esa teoría antigua fuese verdad, entonces todos nosotros estaríamos oscilando visiblemente los unos contra los otros a nuestra escala, peor aún, aleatoriamente algunos de nosotros llegaríamos a entrar en resonancia y explotaríamos en pedazos.

Atoms were discovered much earlier by Avogadro. He called them simple molecules.

Wow, I have even more respect for Einstein now

That's funny cos I got some Brownian motion going on right now.



I watch these videos in the shitter. Is what I'm saying.

Lose your nonsensical atomism!

Si se puediera manejar estas coliciones, se podría generar el movimiento de una esfera a velocidades mas grandes... de kilometros x segundo?

BOUYANCY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry every time I watch something scientific Bill Nye pops out and yells that in my brain

Avogadro’s number

Wow this sure went from anus annus mirabilis into Brownian Motion LOL

I have a pet theory that quantum uncertainty is just the smallest scale of Brownian motion. All these particles are getting moved all over the place by like photons or quantum disturbances or whatever so they are hard to pin down. But with the added complexity of them being so small that even detecting them can meaningfully change their behavior.

Dude. You squandered a GOLDEN opportunity for "and his name...was Albert Einstein." In life, rarely are we handed such chances to serve stale memes on a silver platter. Broke my heart, Steve... Please consider re-uploading this video with the appropriate dialogue. Thank you.
