and when it does, then what pulled it up will now pull it down and foom, foom, foom, foom, foom in a way, way, way it go. see? so there's not a cancellation, there's a reversing of direction and a continual rotation. what determines the speed of it? the speed-- what determines the speed is the strength of the current or the strength of the magnetic field, see? the stronger the magnetic field, then the greater the interaction. the more the current in here, the greater the interaction. so if you'll increase either, you'll increase the speed at which this thing goes. 'cause a small force will pull it up a little bit. a big force, boom, snap it up quickly, see? and bam, bam, bam, bigger force will make it go faster, faster, faster. most motors are designed to rotate so that-- at 60 times per second, 60 rotations per second, okay? that's 60 hertz, 60-hert motor. that's what we have in this country. in europe, they have like 50 hertz motors, but there's a particular frequency at which the motors are designed to rotate. okay, gang, i'm gonna shift gears a little bit. if from electricity you

and, foom, send out its own light wave. that catches the next atom. when that light wave hits that atom, what's that atom do? how many say, "oh, it probably don't vibrate"? come on, it vibrates, too, all right? so, boom, it's absorbed. now, what's the vibrating atom do? boom, spit, burp, bam, bam, bam--it cascades, when it gets to the end. here's your piece of glass like this, yeah. here's your first atom just sitting like that. here comes a wave--choo, choo-- okay, hoop, i spit. next atom, boom, okay, boom. hit, boom. here's the atom right on the edge over here. whip, boom. this one, hit, boom, and then foom, free space. how fast did it throw it out? free space. you know what the speed of the light was in between atoms? 300,000 kilometers per second, the speed of light that you get in a vacuum. 'cause guess--we think of a vacuum as void, right? take a piece of glass, take a piece of water, what's in between the atoms? how many say airspace? no, no, no, no, no. no airspace. what's in between there, gang? begin with a v end with oid. try it. - void. -

>> i think that the problem we have here is that we foom ourselves as a society into outrage about thingsthis. because he -- mike rice really is extreme. but the reality is, he's not rare. he's just rarely exposed. >> hmm. >> he's rarely caught on tape. he's rarely brought to the attention and sanctions that we think people behaving like that should. the problem we really have in sports is not shocking homophobic language. welcome to the language of sports. ev any person, i would say from 8 years up, any person understands the language, humiliation of sports, is to align people who have not done well, or are not doing what the coach wants them to do, with either being, if they're men, like women, if they're women, like gay women, or if they're men, even worse than being like women, being like gay people. there's nothing new to that. what i think is stark here is how we can be surprised, at this point, by this, when this is going on, you can walk on any sideline almost anywhere in america or britain, on any given weekend, and see similar -- similar behaviors, or at lest the vestigeal begin

number one was, how do this thing, foom, fly off? what's the basis of that electromagnetic levitation? and the other question is, is when i crank this generator, it's harder to turn when it's lit up and easier to turn when it's not. right now, i'm turning only against friction. but when i hook it in, it becomes part of the circuit, it really is more difficult to turn. hc, how come? think about that. it's physics, all right? yeah. welcome to another session of beliefs and believers. i am dr. john simmons and it's time to pull out those handkerchiefs cause we have reached our last dimension, dare i say it, the social dimension. but, we still got plenty more to do here, and some very interesting classes for you. with the social dimension, we want to look at how religion works, and the reason for that is we, as we've done the whole semester, is to appreciate religious diversity. and we want to focus on the united states and look at some of the reason why we are so religiously diverse,
