Summer of Math Exposition

Why does the swing go higher with each push?

Audience:

In this video, we explore the physics behind why a swing goes higher and higher when pushed, using the theory of forced oscillation and the state of resonance. Our team consists of members from various high schools in Vietnam, including: Le Nguyen Bao Tran, Bui Minh Triet and Vu Anh Thu. Special thanks to Nguyen Quy Khanh Duy, Nguyen Nhu Phuong, and Vat Ly Chill for their support and contributions!

Nice and simple, yet effective. Too bad about the artificial voice. I would have liked to see more depth and perhaps a few formulas, otherwise it feels too conversational. Maybe a follow-up video is planned to develop the topic further.

It was a bit too robotic to follow. I would change the style of the narration, but it is a matter of taste also

Good explanation, but lacks any real helpful math.

Nice video, the illustrations and cats were cute. Make more of these videos. The illustration style is unique and really good. Personally I would have preferred some more equations and formal mathematics in this video to demonstrate the concepts of resonance and oscillators.
