Looks like I'm throwing up gang signs when I'm studying

somehow in eight minutes i learned something my teacher has failed to teach for a week straight

**Applause** You managed to teach this concept better than anyone in the physics dept at my university. Bravo!

You taught me AP bio in my sophomore year of high school. Now I'm back 7 years later, and you're teaching me physics for the MCAT. Thank you, Mr. Anderson! c:

This is the most efficient way to explain the right-hand rule, great job!

I've been aware of this concept for over 20 years, but never understood it better than I do now after watching this. Thank you, sir! Perfect presentation style, and elegantly succinct.

Thank you for this ! I'm reviewing Physics for the MCAT and have never truly understood magnetism because it was poorly taught in my school. Your videos are very clear, with clean animations that help us follow along with what you are saying. Keep it up!

Why you seem to be expert in all all the academic subjects? Such a genius....

MAGNETIC FORCE, JACK! NATURE'S FORCE!

If you’re reading the comment section for that ambiguous part of the video in 4:21 Then go back for the arrow symbol explained where the encircled point indicates the magnetic field going towards you whilst the encircled cross sign indicates that it goes away from you (see 1:00) Note: Middle Finger Indicates Magnetic Field or B You see the magnetic field direction (encircled points) changes after the first moving charge example (the one that is inclined to the left) into encircled cross (means magnetic field goes away from you) which was the next example that twisted yo mind. He even said “Now we have a different magnetic field” in 4:11 Then go apply Fleming’s right hand rule and it will now make sense Thank you so much for this Mr. Andersen BTW

I absolutely love physics - but it honestly gives me such a headache...irritating. lol

You are my hero! I can always count on Mr. Andersen to explain what others can't. Thank you.

that awkward moment when you're trying to do the right hand rule but remember that you're an amputee

This guy's better than Khan Academy.

LORENTZ FORCE, GO!

Bruh I learned the right hand rule in about 4 minutes vs my teacher today who spent about 2 hours (double period) basically teaching us gang signs instead of teaching.

"I have won this!" *AND IT WILL COME* *LIKE A FLOOD OF PAIN*

MAGNETIC FORCE JACK, NATURES FORCE!

Thank you! My physics professor doesn't know how to teach and this right hand rule explanation actually makes sense

Much appreciated. Online courses don't pair well with explaining a physical concept like this, so I'm glad your video helped me fill in the logic gaps I was having. Thanks!

I love how concise this video is. I'm just reviewing for My MCAT. Thanks!

How pleased you are to chop away, Jack the Ripper!

I was 9 years old when you posted this video. Now I am 18 and learning from it. Thanks for that.

Bozeman, you killed it. Your videos have been helping me since high school!

Memes. The DNA of the soul.

Ty I learned in 3 minutes how to do the RH rule finally. Professor and TA's couldn't demonstrate this well for some reason

Thank you very much Prof! You really helped me pass the physics university exam, you have a gift for clarity.

my professor spent a lecture on this doing it a different way, and i understood it so much better in just 4 minutes. andersen ur the real mvp.

Thank you, I really learned in those minutes something that my teacher failed to teach for a whole unit

Physics can be confusing, this video helps make it more understandable. Thanks.

THANK YOU! Saw my teacher doing all those hand movements and had no idea what he was doing, helping me a lot for my quiz!

That was helpful. I've only learned physics in the last year or two, self taught, blowing my mind. I never used to understand equations, now that I do, I can't believe that nature works this way. Thanks.. I'm subscribing.

That was extremely helpful. In class, everything up until magnetic fields was clear to me. I was having trouble determining the direction of the force exerted on the moving particle through a magnetic field. This video was and is the solution.

stuyding for my mcat with this old gem of a vid, God bless you Mr.Andersen

you dont know how much your 8 minutes helped compared to my teachers week thats cause hes using the one that involves using your whole hand

Thank you! This makes understanding the "right hand rule" so much easier than my professor and my textbook.

Wow, you're really good at explaining this, damn.

I came here from Metal Gear Rising Revengeance and started learning about physics. Thank you Monsoon

Thank you for this! I'm a bit confused as to how a permanent magnet works based off the explanation here -- wouldn't a permanent magnet that's not moving (relative to a charged particle) exert a magnetic field, and wouldn't the charged particle feel that field even though neither are moving relative to each other?

It's 2021 and this video from almost 7 years ago has saved me.

This hand rule is so much better than the one my teacher taught us. Something about curling your fingers it made no sense to me. Thank u sir.

Imagine taking the AP test only for the supervisors to shut it down because they think you are trying to communicate with the other students when you are using the right-hand rule.

Thank you. I was losing my mind over this, but it finally clicked.

This was the ONLY video that made me understand the right hand rule!!!!

Thank you! I have an exam in 2 hours and this video really helped!!

Been practicing this in my neighborhood. 5 gang thugs came over and recognised me as their leader

As far as I know, the right hand should be magnetic force on the thumb, magnetic flux on the first finger and current (I.e velocity of the charged particle) on the middle finger. How come it's the opposite for the first and second fingers at 3:24?

DUDE YOU REALLY DID HELP ! I'VE BEEN SEEING THOUSAND OF VIDEOS AND WOULDN'T FIGURE IT OUT TIL YOU SHOWED UP

MAGNETIC FORCE, JACK, NATURE'S FORCE

You know what’s funny , I feel videos like this and tv shows on science are much better at educating for one reason , they rely on viewership for the video/show’s success. They make much more of an effort making sure you understand it then most textbooks , because physics in education doesn’t rely on people passing , and as for taking the class you have to take it so they don’t rely on people taking the class for the success of the class (payday). The language in my textbook complicates this so much it is actually unbelievable . Just some thoughts I had, thank you good sir.

Seeing a practical example and explaining why it happens would be an example of a teacher.

From 5:24 The red vector is B, magnetic field strength (since it's a vector it comes with direction. So B, field strength, has information about the magnetic field strength and the direction of the strength) The blue vector is V, the velocity (another vector). The pink vector is the force on the positive or negative test charge

thank you so much for this video, other demonstrations were just 2D vector diagrams that i couldn’t really wrap my head around but your demonstration of the right hand video is perfect.

omg learned in 8 minutes from this video. meanwhile 2 other tutors and the prof and the TA been trying to teach me for 2 weeks now.

I may be wrong but i think it's very important to emphasize that when we be dealing with electron which has a negative charge, we should mandatory use the left hand. As the professor said you can also use your right hand as long as you turn the force around when you're done but to me, you should just use the most "accurate hand" for each particle.

This explanation was awesome. Going to ace my physics test now! Thank you

This is MCAT gold. THANK YOU!

Thank you so so much my teacher ❤from Iam student form Iraq I was really bad in this but now I'm doing better in magnetic force

Im an Turkish student and it really helped :) thank you

MR ANDERSON, surprised to see me i cant be the only one thinking of a matrix reference instead of studying, can i?

QUESTION: AT 4:24, WHY IS THE MAGNETIC FIED "NOT COMING TOWARDS US" AND WE HAVE TO FLIP OUR HAND ?

This sir teaches everything in simple words and easy ways and I never get confused. THANK YOU! MAY GOD BLESS YOU.

No wonder this has the most views ,I have watched tons of videos explaining this I almost thought I was the problem but he explained it right

I came here to learn how to build a Hoverboard, but instead I got a physics lesson ... Great Scott!

I still don’t understand the right hand rule, but this I helped me somehow. Thank you

your visualization of the right hand was very useful, thank you

if only my physics teacher taught this easy. I have a test tomorrow and you just saved my life

I LOVE your course!!!!!! Thanks so so SOOOO much! Without you, my learning journey will be dark and hopeless😭

Just got barraged with knowledge and actually understood it. Great video. Wish you were my professor.

The way of his teaching is incredible! Thank you!

That was great one of the best explanation I have heard so far. I was confused thank you for clearing my confusion.

Very helpful! Short but very clear and the graphic help a lot too. Thanks!

This was a much needed tutorial for me. Awesome video.

This video was BEYOND helpful. Thank you so much. Had no idea what I was doing before I came here lol

This really helped me! I thought I would never understand it! Thanks!!!

Haven’t learnt soooo much in so short. Big thumbs up

Great video, I had a really hard time understanding this topic until I watched this. I'm reviewing for a Physics 2 exam and this helped me a lot. Thank you!

simply the best my physics professor didn't explain it any better

5:00 should the force be on the right instead?

I learned a similar rule of thumb picking my chassis electrical instructors brain (Whyotech). It's a rule to find the magnetic field in a conductor when you know the current direction. I was Googling that rule when I found this video. Learned a new rule from this one. Subbed. I'll be back for more lessons.

in my college physics class, this helped me understand the righthand rule when i was struggling for over an hour in lectures

As always, youtube professors teaching better than university professors. Thanks for the help!!!!

You are awesome. Not like those Khan Academy folks that can talk for ages

tysm TT i have an exam tomorrow and i have never understood how it works until now!! much appreciated

Your explanations are so clear and helpful

thanks Jesus loves you

OMG this is so helpful !! I was confused after looking Princeton review and Barron. But this one is so straightforward. Thank u, Mr. Anderson

I am taking right hand rule since grade 9 and know I am in grade 12 and I just understood this, thank you🙏 you helped me a lot.

This was beyond helpful, thank you so much

I'm watching this video in 2020. It really helps. Tks a lot

It's amazing.. Still.. crash course physics video on magnetism is highly recommended . ..

I watched so many videos explaining the RH Rule, and this one finally made it CLICK ! T-T

Thank you so much! This is the first time i get to understand right hand rule. My physics teacher is awful and never teaches anything.

You saved my grade. For that I thank you.

thank you, most helpful and efficient video ive seen

Oh good! When I see it was you I thought GREAT! This guy actually knows the stuff. Thank you.

I LOVE YOU SOOO MUCHHHHHHH THIS HELPED ME SO MUCH HOLY, my teacher is great but he goes a little too fast and like he doesnt explain properly sometimes, man oh man this is gold

Beautiful description

This is super helpful. I've always been confused about this but I so get it now. Thanks

We've been taught that the three finger (thumb, index and middle) are representing Motion, Field and current in right hand rule while force, field and current in left hand rule. Did he just make a new rule?
