      Minor corrections:
      There is no such thing as "high voltage current," it's better to say something to the tune of "The application of a high voltage results in sudden dielectric breakdown of the air resulting in a strong impulse response or electrical snap."
      Maximum power transfer theorem states Zl = **Zg, or the *CONJUGATE* of the impedance, not equal. this allows the maximum use of electrical "whiplash" at the resonant frequency.

      @@ahmdabdallah2132 Too bad God does not actually exist except for as a concept in the human mind. Unless you have any actual evidence of God's actual existence.
      For those who claim God exists, consider the following:
      a. An actual eternally existent absolute somethingness truly existing.
      b. An actual eternally existent absolute somethingness that has consciousness, memories and thoughts truly existing.
      People who claim God actually and eternally exists basically are claiming that 'b' above is correct but yet simultaneously seem to be saying that 'a' is impossible to occur.
      'a' above can exist without 'b' existing but 'b' cannot exist unless 'a' exists.
      I am one step away from proving God's existence, but am unable to find any actual evidence to do so. And nobody I've talked to seems to have any actual evidence of God's actual existence either. Hence, at this time in the analysis, God does not actually exist except for as a concept created by humans for humans. Humans have personified Nature and called that personification "God".
      * People who make super natural claims, the onus is upon them to prove their claims. They are certainly free to believe whatever they want to believe, and others are certainly free to believe whatever they want to believe. Via a lengthy analysis I currently believe that people who believe in God are delusional and are believing in fairy tales as if those fairy tales were really true. And if they couldn't prove otherwise, then they couldn't prove otherwise. They have been brainwashed well. KUDOS to those who brainwashed them.
      * So again, I ask where is any actual evidence, any actual evidence at all, that God actually factually exists?

    Just a few notes :)
    Hertz's experiment: It wasn't the spark that transmitted the wave (Edit: the spark itself will / is able to emit an EM wave though). The spark merely triggers the dipole oscillation. He used a massive DC voltage surge released into an oscillator (or without it) and then to a tuned dipole arrangement with a spark gap. The spark fluctuates, behaving also kind of like AC, that's why it worked even without the oscillator. The dipole then produces a dying wave, not a continuous wave. The wave is emitted by the whole dipole, not by the spark in the middle of it. Herz created the first dipole arrangement by pulling a capacitor electrodes far apart (the balls). The emitted wave was received on a loop that really was another LC resonator (L was represented by the loop or square of certain diameter and C was represented by the gap).
    6:50 if the impedance of the power source/cables doesn't match the dipole input impedance, the power is reflected right on the transition point between them. This looks like it is reflected on the dipole itself.
    I really liked the portion of the video, where you explain how the EM field leaves the conductor.

      "the spark fluctuates, behaving also kind of like AC, that's why it worked even without the oscillator." it does not fluctuate . it just lives for some time. say 100 microseconds. and the natural frequency was 100 MHz. so the oscillations are between the spheres (a capacitor) connected by a piece of wire (an inductor)

      @TheYeeshkul 9 месяцев назад +1

      @@icommentio The current between the gap electrodes is not clean DC, it is "hairy". That is what is needed to emit a wave. I guess this is a complex problem where the spark gap, which is able to emit a wave itself, feeds an oscillator that will make the wave go longer and be cleaner in shape.

    I design mobile cellular antennas as part of my job. I thought the video was a great depiction, showing the propagating mode(s) as a kink, but I should clarify that antenna designers for cell phones don’t use halfwave dipoles. Rather, we use a random geometry of antenna traces to transfer energy from the board to near fields and hope that in the mess of fields surrounding the cellphone, some form of propagating modes also arise. A little shared secret among antenna engineers is that we don’t have a clue how our antenna actually work as it’s impossible to decompose fields into their constituent components using full wave simulators. We can only look at the aggregate fields. With a dipole, it’s easy to analyze and the modes pop out of the math.

    I have a BSEE degree which included multiple high level calculus-based classes in electromagnetic fields. this video explained the concepts better than all of those classed combined! Bravo to the developers of this video! A few questions below.
    At 2:19 the kink is said to move or radiate outwards at the speed of light, seemingly implying that this was the EM wave. But then the kink is shown as occurring at 3:37. This is before the two charges (and the fields between them) later meet and the EM wave is transmitted . Is this the difference between a photon and a wave (a collection of photons)? Do both actually occur? In other words, at 2:19 when the kink is formed, does this produce a photon(s) reconciling the kink from a single charge later followed by the transmission of the whole wave occurring when multiple photons collide from the multiple charges meeting?
    What is the blob of objects at 1:39? I am assuming it is the "charge" mentioned just previously? If so, is the blue dot that emits from it at the speed of light (referred to as "the information") a photon? Where does the photon get the energy to emit outward at the speed of light? Is it from the energy that must have been present to cause the acceleration of the charge? Or does it not need energy to accelerate because it is massless? If it is massless, why is it depicted as having a negative charge at 1:46?
    Why does "the field near the charge" need to "communicate" the "information" to the "field further away" at all? this implies that the fields have some intelligence and use the "information" to adjust their fields to reconcile the delta. Would it be advisable to omit this in favor of the really insightful bit about the delta being reconciled to prevent a discontinuation (correct the disturbance) between the two fields? (a disturbance in the time/space continuum). Can we also think of this as an energy problem? Could we say (from Newton's second law) that the change in speed, or acceleration, requires a force, which increases the energy state of the moving charge? Could we further way that the photon is emitted to release energy and establish equilibrium (from a conservation of energy perspective)?
    If the entire universe consisted of a single positively charge particle, would that positive charge have an electric field?

    Electrons in the dipole antenna doesn't actually move along the wire as shown in the diagram since electrons move very slowly (few cm/s). What's really happening in the conductor is much more complicated as it's a superposition of all the electrical field produced by the accelerating electrons. It's not something that can be appreciated intuitively, however this animation provides a good enough explanation.

    • @mibrahim4245

      I have couple of questions if you don't mind ..
      The first: how do kinks move at the speed of light, while their cause "the charge acceleration" moves in a speed much less than the lightspeed ? how do they move faster than the thing that created them ....

    • @rotate85
      @rotate85 2 года назад +2

      @@mibrahim4245 Hi, sorry for the late reply but I only saw this now. Kink isn't a thing on it's own. It's just an imaginary line that connects the point in space that have the same electrical field strength. Kink isn't something that moves, although the animation shows this. This is because the electrical field is mediated to all the space around by a virtual photon which does travel all the speed of light. What it trying to demonstrate is that when the charged particle accelerates, the electrical field is updated to the space at the speed of light.

    • @mibrahim4245
      @mibrahim4245 2 года назад +1

      @@rotate85 Thank you for the reply ..
      I'm very interested about this particular detail and I'd like to "digest it" so plz bear with me ..
      now the charge has accelerated.. and the information about the electric field strength updates with lightspeed.. so why if it is so fast.. why would it have a problem (creates kinks) when the charge accelerates (but not when its stationary or with constant speed).. whats the difference if in all cases the information would update very quickly.. and he said "the space near the charge would update normally, but the space 'away' from it would have kinks .. so again, why does it happen if this update is so fast ...
      the second question is about propagation.. I saw in other books that it happens because the E field creates B field, and that B field creates E field .. and so on .. so is that the why ? this detaching energy as in this animation was not very convincing for me ...
      Thanks in adavnce ..

    The animations are fantastic, the best I’ve ever seen. Please keep in mind that none of the original authorities postulated existence of electron particle. Only the electron wave. What is misconstrued as a particle is most likely a node or singularity. We cannot hope to advance understanding if we hold to this concept that everything is created from smaller & smaller particles, i.e. quanta. Example, the reason that electromagnetic waves and light both travel at the same speed is because light is an electromagnetic wave. There is no light particle. Light slows down when passing thru a prism because it’s an electromagnetic wave, not a stream of particles. There are no dualities in nature. Wave-particle duality concept is a misdirection. Perhaps deliberate.

      @gilldanier4129 2 года назад +1

      Everything is a wave, a wave is formed in its own material, therefore if electricity is radiated as a wave, then that wave must be formed in electricity that is around us. Just like a radio signal is received using a capacitor to tune it, power can be radiated as a wave and then recieved when tuned to it's own frequency. We exist in an ocean of energy, even space. Tesla was proving this, unfortunately he was fighting against greed.

      Maybe by now you already know the answer but the radiation from a dipole has a donut like pattern. It only radiates to the side, not up and down. This is why you will always see broadcast antennas oriented vertically, because we want the radiated power going towards users, not into space or straight into the ground.

      I think they were trying to illustrate impedence by using a combination of real-world loads in that example at 6:08 .

      I can suggest a few things. First, take notes. You'll have a better chance of understanding things if you remember more of it, and simply writing something down will help with that. Look up any terms you don't understand. Third, watching other videos or reading other texts about the same thing. And fourth, be patient and persistent. You've got your whole life to figure this stuff out, take your time with it and have fun. But if you keep at it, you'll find yourself learning things you never thought possible. Another thing that helps with general knowledge is to make a point of learning just one new thing a day. Best of luck to you. And don't forget to enjoy the journey of learning. Cheers.

  • @williamwalker39
    @williamwalker39 Год назад +1

    Recent experiments show that electromagnetic fields (light) in the nearfield propagate instantaneously, and only in the farfield (after ~one wavelength) propagate at speed c. This has also been proven theoretically using Maxwell equations, by setting the wave equation to a source term and analyzing the speed of the fields. The results apply to the phase speed, group speed and front speed (information speed). If Relativity is derived using instantaneous nearfield light, then it yields Galilean Relativity, where time is same in all inertial frames. This can easily be seen by inserting c=infinity into the Lorentz Transform, yielding the Galilean Transform. So if a moving object is observed using farfield light then Relativistic effects will be observed. But if the instantaneous nearfield light is used, then no Relativistic effects will be observed. So by simply changing the frequency of the light, such the instantaneous nearfield light is used, Relativistic effects can be made to vanish. Since time and space are real, then they should be independent of the frequency of the light used to measure their effects. So one must conclude that the effects of Relativity are just an optical illusion, and that Galilean Relativity is the correct theory of Relativity. In addition, any theory based on Relativity, like General Relativity and Quantum field theory must also have the same problem. For much more information, see the links below:

    Great Video for the newbies, but should state as I was always corrected, when a young whippersnapper by the old learned folk, that if you represent science and engineering particularly to new folk, you should please learn, to be precise in what you state, “say what you mean; mean what you say”, for @0:16, you state that, “Heinrich Hertz was the first man to transmit and detect electromagnetic waves”, this is incorrect for light is an electromagnetic wave, so the first person to transmit electromagnetic waves is prehistoric as a simple wave to another at a distance would have been the transmission and detection of electromagnetic waves reflected from the sun! Then the first person to create a transmitter of electromagnetic waves would have been when fire was created. Hertz was not even the first to transmit invisible to human eyes, electromagnetic waves, for the behavior of particles or metal filings in the presence of electricity or electric sparks was noticed in many experiments well before there was proof of the theory of electromagnetism. In 1835 Swedish scientist Peter Samuel Munk noticed a change of resistance in a mixture of metal filings in the presence of spark discharge from a Leyden jar. This is clearly evidence of transmission and reception of electromagnetic waves that were human invisible even before Maxwell! Also, Oliver Lodge clearly knew that he had produced and detected “electromagnetic waves predicted some twenty-four years earlier by James Clerk Maxwell. Before he presented these observations as part of the findings in his study of lightning conductors, however, Lodge went on vacation in that summer of 1888. It was while on vacation that Lodge read of Hertz's similar work with electromagnetic waves.” So, what is Hertz famous for? Writing a paper on invisible electromagnetic waves. “proving” Maxwell and presenting it before anyone else did. I put “proving” in inverted commas because there is evidence that even this is incorrect, but will take to long to explain here.

      My actual doubt in a nutshell is:
      “Why does it have to be WAVES?”
      The changing electric field creates a changing magnetic field and this magnetic field induces a current in the receiver. This is my perspective and I wanna be proved wrong cuz I know it is wrong xD. I just don’t know how.
