Everything you need to know about the experiment that proved that light is a WAVE! Young's famous double slit experiment.
Young's double slit experiment. The experiment that proved that light is a WAVE. Newton actually thought that light was made up of particles, but a lot of the other physicist noticed that his theory didn't explain light-like properties like diffraction and polarisation. Thomas Young proved that light was in fact a wave with his double slit experiment.
The experiment set up: two slits (double slit), and a light source behind the double slit. Some distance away is a detection plane to show where the light hits after it has passed through the double slit. An interference pattern appears on the screen when the light is switched on. The only way to explain this interference pattern is if light is a wave. The constructive interference causes the bright fringes and destructive interference causes the dark fringes, resulting in an interference pattern (diffraction pattern). Thus it was proved by Thomas Young's double slit experiment, that light is indeed a wave.

About the Site π
This site provides links to random videos hosted at YouTube, with the emphasis on random. π₯
Origins of the Idea π±
The original idea for this site stemmed from the need to benchmark the popularity of a video against the general population of YouTube videos. π§
Challenges Faced π€
Obtaining a large sample of videos was crucial for accurate ranking, but YouTube lacks a direct method to gather random video IDs.
Even searching for random strings on YouTube doesn't yield truly random results, complicating the process further. π
Creating Truly Random Links π οΈ
The YouTube API offers additional functions enabling the discovery of more random videos. Through inventive techniques and a touch of space-time manipulation, we've achieved a process yielding nearly 100% random links to YouTube videos.
About YouTube πΊ
YouTube, an American video-sharing website based in San Bruno, California, offers a diverse range of user-generated and corporate media content. π
Content and Users π΅
Users can upload, view, rate, share, and comment on videos, with content spanning video clips, music videos, live streams, and more.
While most content is uploaded by individuals, media corporations like CBS and the BBC also contribute. Unregistered users can watch videos, while registered users enjoy additional privileges such as uploading unlimited videos and adding comments.
Monetization and Impact π€
YouTube and creators earn revenue through Google AdSense, with most videos free to view. Premium channels and subscription services like YouTube Music and YouTube Premium offer ad-free streaming.
As of February 2017, over 400 hours of content were uploaded to YouTube every minute, with the site ranking as the second-most popular globally. By May 2019, this figure exceeded 500 hours per minute. π
