Richard Feynman was a Nobel
Prize-winning American physicist, particularly known for his contributions to
quantum physics, quantum electrodynamics and particle physics, as well as
quantum computing and nanotechnology. During his lifetime, he was one of the
best-known scientists in the world, and was a great popularizer of physics
through his books and lectures.
He was also regarded as
something of an eccentric and free spirit, and brought a wicked sense of humour
to his work, as exemplified by his well-known quote “I think I can safely say
that nobody understands quantum mechanics”.
The well-known Nobel Prize
winning physicist, Richard Feynman, is enquired how magnets work. You will love how beautifully he responds. As an answer, you might assume him to maybe talk about the magnetic field or Maxwell’s equations … but nope … instead what he does is to disclose something pretty remarkable that cuts straight to the heart of what is being asked and how significant any answer might or might not be … for a “why” question. Why would he be asked this exact question?
Well essentially because he
won the Nobel Prize for coming up with the current mathematical explanation of
the electromagnetic force, and this has turn out to be one of the most precise
models in the history of physics, agreeing with all acknowledged experiments to
an unbelievable degree of correctness. The following 7 minute video clip has
been watched over one million times …
