Today I'm doing a two-part experiment
involving a spool. I've wrapped some
nylon rope around the spool and right
now it's coming over the top as you can
see. I'm going to place the spool down
beside me and I'm going to pull the rope
horizontally towards me. And I want you
to make a prediction. What's going to
happen when I pull the rope? Will it
move to the right or to the left? Or
does it depend on how I pull the rope?
It'll go this way.
It'll go to the left.
I don't know why, but it will.
I think it'll go to the right.
Depends on how you pull it.
What do you What do you What do you
reckon?
If it's loose
Yeah.
It's just going to spin around on the
on the blue bit. But if you if it's
tight, it's it's going to come toward
No, it's going to stay where it is
because it's going to unwind.
I'd like you to make your prediction now
by clicking on one of the annotations.
Now, I should point out that this is
only the first part of the experiment,
so try not to overthink it. If you're on
a mobile device, you can find the links
in the description below. All right, are
you ready? Three, two, one.
