The strange thing was I was considering doing medical radiation science at Usyd in year 11. Then I decided to do computing, seeing I've always had a knack for breaking and fixing things with electronics and computers.
usyd is about ... well ... 'all sorts of things'.
unless you know about the notorious geoffrey leonard you wont know what i mean.
explain good sir how the above phenomena works, with a jargon level of approximately 4/10
at a macroscopic level (i.e. see with your own naked eye), the wood and cylinders dont move, but deep down at the microscopic level they actually vibrate at their own signature natural frequency.
then the pendulum after a while measures the average frequency of the wood and cylinders and therefore share the frequency.
me not physics like omium but meh...
When i woke up today i realised something......
I remember a few months before my HSC finished i had Law as my first preference.
Then as i was with my teacher a few weeks post HSC, i simply switched my first preference with my third preference which was engineering.
In those few seconds, I changed the type of life i would've led for the next 25 years.
It makes you wonder.
too many commerce people it could become university of moneyland or viethailand.
moar scientists and engineers in unsw.
but not to the point it becomes MIT.
yea, i got a call when i got my uai, from uow, saying they'd accepted me into mechatronics at uow. then later on that day i got another call saying even tho im 2 points down they'd accept me into mechatron/sci double.
was gonna take out unsw from top place since i already got into uow.
then offers came, wtf unsw? IS THERE A MISTAKE? NO? LOL!
well on the other hand a uow student wanted to transfer to unsw.
DENIED.
*he cries*
The dude that came to collect the experiment came early, i didn't want to keep him waiting for long, so as soon as they all clicked in i stopped it.
Also, they are all 100% identical.
I began all of them by pushing each individually with my finger.
I don't know exactly how the phenomena works but we are learning it soon (that what lecturer said at least).
Interestingly if the cylinders at the bottom are replaced by something stationary. i.e. bricks, it doesnt occur.
(me thinks its due to the natural oscillation of the system)
lol you posted that shit in NS and no one knew what was happening.
are you able make them achieve unbounded resonance?
like actually measure the precise natural oscillation of the system then apply the same oscillatory period and then mayhem?
wat did u do to my laptop
had to force shut down, then start up again to see if my baby was responding.
mabe i should've read that fork bomb link, instead of tl;dr'ing it, haha.
lol thnx.
i was going to test that on my bro's comp to stop him from playing final fantasy.
