any electrons on your seat? yes, any electrons on your seat? and when these electrons squished closer and closer, what do they do? begin with "r" end with "l". they repel and this is an electrical repulsion, my friend, between you and the chairs upon which you sit. let's put it this way. let's suppose this table-- pretend this table is a magnet. you guys know about magnets repelling. turn around, they attract, yeah. but you know magnets repel. you've all played with magnets. wow, how come that happened? there's no reason for that. come on, we'll talk about it later, yeah? but pretend that this table is a magnet and pretend that my shoe here is a magnet. and i have a force of repulsion, magnetic repulsion between my shoes and the table. can you picture in your mind's eye me walking across the table and not making contact such that someone could come up and take a piece of paper and slip it right under my shoe? can you imagine that? can you? how many people say no, i can't imagine such a thing? you have to show me. show your hands. hey, but you k

- electron. - electron. now we have to make the symbol for electron. r electron, get it? mm-hmm. at'shetomic mber of an eltron? - negative o. - atomicbe negane wh is atomic numr, anyy? charge, right? - netive one. - negave one what's theass of an electron? zero. well, it's closer to zero than it is to one if one is the mass of a proton neutron. and this has got, like, abou2,0th the mass. that'sloser to zero than to one. so we round of atomic mass number, anyway. this is ze. now, what does the thorium become? well, what do we got over here for an atomic nuer 91 do you see it's 91? yeah. 91. and what's the mass gonna be? - 89. - now, what has 91? protactinium. - is it gonna be 91, gang? - yeah. let's check. - 91 minus 1 equals 90. - correct. it's 91. that's interesting. some people think that radioactive decay, you start with uranium and work down, down, dow down the periodic table approaching hydrogen. not true. when beta particles are emitted, you climb up the table, gang. you see that? what happens in that nucleus? you got all these particles in that nucleus. i'm not gonna draw

electronics is a combination of mechanical and electronic attractions that enables him in taking shape and movement of living creatures. electronics is actively and widely used as a means toward the cinema history. especially when the show creatures that are extinct i know. was the express was to create the characters of the theater in electronics. first the giant gorilla became the first domestic robots. it slightly to six point five meters and weighs a whopping two types. the general director of the electronic production factory but didn't cost that she is his best memories of the project. lol both of whom are we to make this layout to choose a rumored to be a little boring to eat eat eat instead of speaking. we'll start from nothing. our team treated wrong spot of materials and textures worked out the technical problems. one when we saw the quality of the production of our american and british counterparts. i believe that we can make it much better the main thing was the center go and try to do the best job we could with the names don't want. well let's face it logical that the stat

200 million electron volts. so you see, when you try to fission things, i mean, when you try to fuse things on this side, if you fuse these things, you're gonna climb a hill. you're gonna gain mass. what you wanna do is lose mass after reaction. lose mass. if you understand that, you can answer this question. let's suppose you have some iron and with this iron-- it's in the future, we get fusion power plants, we get fission power plants. and in the future we have-- and you get some iron. you wanna bring the iron to the power plants so you can get some energy out of it. should you bring the iron to the fission power plant or the fusion power plant? check your neighbor. see if your neighbor be know it. okay, gang. what be the answer? neither. what happen if you fission it? iron's 26. let's suppose your fission did exactly in half. then the two pieces would have what atomic number? 13. do you have to know what half of 26 is? 13. what is it? 13. is it 13? okay. it'd be two 13s, yeah? the two 13s-- [makes sounds] you

begin with e. - electricity. - electrons. the electrons in a piece of copper wire. you can make those things slosh back and forth too. and you plug it in the plug in your house, and what do you do? what the power company does, it'll just move them. and by the way, did you catch in the chapter? how many electrons come from the power plant to your house annually, about-- a lot or a little? a lot. answer don't begin with a l. what's the answer, gang? how many electrons come from the power company into your home in about one year, one year's time? give me an answer. - zero. - yeah, zero. none. the power company doesn't send any electrons at all to you. that power company says, "you give me something "chock-full of loose electrons, honey, and we'll make them move." see? that pipe that was filled with water, you gotta supply the water. you look inside there, honey, it's dry. there's just two pistons, okay? and they're gonna push the water you supply. and when every time you take a piece of wire and you plug it in to light up a lamp, honey, that wire is chock-full of loose

now, if electrons moving this way are forced up, what would happen if i just take the electrons and force them down or just move them down? they're gonna be forced perpendicular. but this time, guess what's along the perpendicular direction? begin with w. wire, there's a path. so when the electrons are coming down there again deflected, it could go like this, it could go like that, the same thing. they're deflected. this time they shot up before there's nothing to do, but pull the whole wire up too. but if i came in this way, foom, they shoot up, but they go along the wire. so what i've done is i've produced a current. so this over here produces an electric pressure on there, which we call a voltage. and so a voltage produced in a wire crossing through a magnetic field is not fundamentally different than having electrons go through a wire this way and being popped up the side. mm, it's the same thing. check that part in the book. it's the distinction between the motor effect and the generator effect. they're really one and the same physics. check that out. now over here, we have a generat

ultimately however the biggest problem with electronic voting machines is that they violate the core principles of our democratic republic whether or not election rigging exists my bets are that it does but let's say it doesn't still the whole idea of privatizing our vote is a crime against our form of government think of it this way the whole purpose of government is to administer the commons know things like parks and healthcare roads and you know the stuff we need to survive. and in the democratic republic voting is the most important part of the commons. it's the most important because it's the glue that holds everything else together bodine is how we the people hold the managers of our commons that is our elected leaders how we hold them accountable for their actions handing the one thing we use to hold everyone else accountable but thomas paying called the heart of democracy the vote handing that over to a corporation of for profit corporation that is only accountable to its shareholders and counts their vote in secret. is the ultimate crime against democracy. on tuesday millio
