1 0:00:00,000 --> 0:00:02,710 well hello children and welcome to the 2 0:00:02,720 --> 0:00:06,550 history of the entire world class today 3 0:00:06,560 --> 0:00:10,070 we are traveling back in time to meet a 4 0:00:10,080 --> 0:00:12,790 famous mathematician named sir isaac 5 0:00:12,800 --> 0:00:14,629 newton so the first thing we do is we 6 0:00:14,639 --> 0:00:17,189 hike up our pants a little bit just like 7 0:00:17,199 --> 0:00:19,349 this and we wiggle our toes a little bit 8 0:00:19,359 --> 0:00:23,590 just like this and then we are uh dance 9 0:00:23,600 --> 0:00:26,150 right back through time right back to 10 0:00:26,160 --> 0:00:30,310 the ripe old year of 1665. 11 0:00:30,320 --> 0:00:32,870 you see one day mr sir isaac newton is 12 0:00:32,880 --> 0:00:34,790 sitting under this her tree which 13 0:00:34,800 --> 0:00:38,470 happens to be an apple tree and he was a 14 0:00:38,480 --> 0:00:40,389 writing in his diary when all of a 15 0:00:40,399 --> 0:00:42,630 sudden 16 0:00:42,640 --> 0:00:46,069 uh when all of a sudden 17 0:00:46,079 --> 0:00:48,549 oh no kids you see what's supposed to 18 0:00:48,559 --> 0:00:50,709 happen right now was an apple supposed 19 0:00:50,719 --> 0:00:52,709 to fall from this tree 20 0:00:52,719 --> 0:00:55,189 onto that man's head 21 0:00:55,199 --> 0:00:56,709 and it's very funny you see but 22 0:00:56,719 --> 0:00:58,709 something else happens to something very 23 0:00:58,719 --> 0:01:01,520 historical 24 0:01:02,160 --> 0:01:03,510 i know 25 0:01:03,520 --> 0:01:05,429 i've seen this while traveling through 26 0:01:05,439 --> 0:01:08,230 history from time to time we must be 27 0:01:08,240 --> 0:01:10,950 stuck in a thought bubble 28 0:01:10,960 --> 0:01:13,190 a brain fart 29 0:01:13,200 --> 0:01:16,390 if you will you see a brain fart 30 0:01:16,400 --> 0:01:18,390 is when you get stuck in an idea and you 31 0:01:18,400 --> 0:01:21,030 can't solve or figure something out and 32 0:01:21,040 --> 0:01:23,910 all of time freezes until you figure out 33 0:01:23,920 --> 0:01:26,149 the right answer so we need to help out 34 0:01:26,159 --> 0:01:29,670 this guy right here right excuse me 35 0:01:29,680 --> 0:01:33,190 sir mr sir isaac newton sir 36 0:01:33,200 --> 0:01:36,310 yes who's there i missed her or uh his 37 0:01:36,320 --> 0:01:39,109 turn i'm a big fan of your work yes well 38 0:01:39,119 --> 0:01:41,030 i have this mathematical problem that i 39 0:01:41,040 --> 0:01:42,630 just can't figure out and i'm having a 40 0:01:42,640 --> 0:01:44,710 bit of a brain fart 41 0:01:44,720 --> 0:01:47,109 i knew i smelled a brain fart 42 0:01:47,119 --> 0:01:50,230 well maybe we can help you out oh that 43 0:01:50,240 --> 0:01:52,230 would be amazing because i just feel 44 0:01:52,240 --> 0:01:54,950 stuck today so here's the problem i have 45 0:01:54,960 --> 0:01:56,710 these ten apples up there in the 46 0:01:56,720 --> 0:01:59,030 branches see and i'm trying to imagine 47 0:01:59,040 --> 0:02:01,510 how many would be there if there were 48 0:02:01,520 --> 0:02:04,389 four or less for you see my wife needs 49 0:02:04,399 --> 0:02:07,109 four apples for making her classic four 50 0:02:07,119 --> 0:02:09,109 apple pie well that sounds like a real 51 0:02:09,119 --> 0:02:11,270 problem now let's work through this so 52 0:02:11,280 --> 0:02:13,990 let's count these apples first 53 0:02:14,000 --> 0:02:14,869 one 54 0:02:14,879 --> 0:02:15,670 two 55 0:02:15,680 --> 0:02:16,630 three 56 0:02:16,640 --> 0:02:17,510 four 57 0:02:17,520 --> 0:02:18,390 five 58 0:02:18,400 --> 0:02:20,830 six seven eight 59 0:02:20,840 --> 0:02:24,390 nine ten yeah ten there's ten very good 60 0:02:24,400 --> 0:02:26,070 now you 61 0:02:26,080 --> 0:02:28,790 want to imagine what it would be like to 62 0:02:28,800 --> 0:02:31,750 have four less apples you're saying the 63 0:02:31,760 --> 0:02:35,750 equation is actually ten minus four yes 64 0:02:35,760 --> 0:02:38,309 oh but that's not really that much help 65 0:02:38,319 --> 0:02:40,470 i'm still exactly where i started oh 66 0:02:40,480 --> 0:02:42,630 we'll never figure this out and i'll 67 0:02:42,640 --> 0:02:46,309 never be a great mathematician 68 0:02:46,319 --> 0:02:47,350 sheets 69 0:02:47,360 --> 0:02:49,509 this guy has gone bananas 70 0:02:49,519 --> 0:02:52,630 now we have to count bananas too 71 0:02:52,640 --> 0:02:53,589 oh 72 0:02:53,599 --> 0:02:56,150 hold on right there mr sir isaac newton 73 0:02:56,160 --> 0:03:00,070 i have an idea what if we count out four 74 0:03:00,080 --> 0:03:02,309 apples that are right near each other 75 0:03:02,319 --> 0:03:05,270 one two three 76 0:03:05,280 --> 0:03:07,589 four four yeah there's four and we cover 77 0:03:07,599 --> 0:03:09,910 those up with our hand so it's like they 78 0:03:09,920 --> 0:03:11,110 went away 79 0:03:11,120 --> 0:03:12,149 okay 80 0:03:12,159 --> 0:03:14,790 now what well now we just count the rest 81 0:03:14,800 --> 0:03:16,630 of the apples that aren't covered up to 82 0:03:16,640 --> 0:03:18,869 see how much would be left 83 0:03:18,879 --> 0:03:19,750 one 84 0:03:19,760 --> 0:03:24,949 two three four five six yeah there's six 85 0:03:24,959 --> 0:03:29,030 six apples remain so ten minus four 86 0:03:29,040 --> 0:03:31,670 equals six you better write that one 87 0:03:31,680 --> 0:03:32,390 down 88 0:03:32,400 --> 0:03:34,550 i will well let's stand back now kids 89 0:03:34,560 --> 0:03:36,550 and see if we fixed history 90 0:03:36,560 --> 0:03:38,869 so there's sir isaac newton writing in 91 0:03:38,879 --> 0:03:41,990 his diary and all of a sudden 92 0:03:42,000 --> 0:03:43,670 ouch 93 0:03:43,680 --> 0:03:47,030 an apple falls on his head and in that 94 0:03:47,040 --> 0:03:48,869 moment 95 0:03:48,879 --> 0:03:50,470 eureka 96 0:03:50,480 --> 0:03:51,350 sir 97 0:03:51,360 --> 0:03:54,470 newton realized that all things were 98 0:03:54,480 --> 0:03:56,949 pulled down from the air towards the 99 0:03:56,959 --> 0:03:58,949 center of the earth and he called this 100 0:03:58,959 --> 0:04:02,309 theory gravity which is pretty awesome 101 0:04:02,319 --> 0:04:04,309 since that's what keeps our bodies here 102 0:04:04,319 --> 0:04:07,190 on the ground because without it 103 0:04:07,200 --> 0:04:09,750 we'd all be floating around 104 0:04:09,760 --> 0:04:12,869 like we're in space 105 0:04:12,879 --> 0:04:14,869 yeah space 106 0:04:14,879 --> 0:04:16,870 i remember space 107 0:04:16,880 --> 0:04:18,629 very 108 0:04:18,639 --> 0:04:21,639 relaxing 109 0:04:30,080 --> 0:04:32,469 gravity huh 110 0:04:32,479 --> 0:04:34,230 well 111 0:04:34,240 --> 0:04:37,360 see you guys next time 112 0:04:37,440 --> 0:04:40,440 bye 113 0:04:42,400 --> 0:04:45,400 hey
