So my guess is the two springs are currently connected to each other but if you cut the green and each spring holds half the weight which means the spring shrink because they're not stretched with half the weight each instead of all.tge weight
@ryan_hanson Says:
It’s only counterintuitive if you don’t think through the actual mechanism. It works exactly as expected since it is actually reducing tension on the springs by halving their load.
@AverageBikeRaceRookie Says:
I was like “Nothing, the only thing holding the springs is the green rope” obviously 🤦♂️
@horacerumpole6912 Says:
Very slight autoparametric response-
@givenmbatha5150 Says:
If it went up is it because the rope from the top is shorter than the red one
@AnonymousCaller-f1f Says:
It will go UP.
With the rope in place, the spring is in series, which reduces the total spring constant and makes it stretchier.
When the rope is cut, it is now a parallel setup, which adds the spring constants together and makes it less stretchy.

Bro was high af, imagining it going top right corner.
Top bins my bruda🤣
@shanewells100 Says:
It cuts the load in half cause of how the 1 cut splits the load w the 2 strings in their points so the springs work together
BOOM
@CoolQuasar1 Says:
For me I thought the ropes were going to go under tension and go down but I got the first right but it went up
@uwu7029 Says:
It went up of course because spring tension was stronger than the weight
@stiffo12 Says:
The slinky effect, spring under tension will contract

@flavialm1 Says:
You had 1 system holding the weight, spring, string, spring. When he cut the string it separated into 2 separate systems, each composed of one steing and one spring, so now each system holds half the weight and needs to deformed less.
@gianmartial Says:
Logical
@mings7337 Says:
could there be a moment that the weight actually dropped before the black thread was straight?
@Merve_99 Says:
explanition
you know when you pull a spring it extends when there was a green rope the rope was a connectionnlike a bridge so when we cut that we cut the bridge between two springs so now it is black and red ropes and two springs in our system normally springs want to extend like they did before but bşack and red rope is limiting them beacuse ropes dont extend like springs it goes up
@Seeing_Eye_Underdog Says:
2 is stronger than one
@jawaring4367 Says:
Two springs in series vs two springs in parallel. The series weight is pulling on the strings more because the two springs effectively act as one long spring. When the load is split between two parallel "circuits" the stress on the springs is lesser.
That's my guess anyway, I'm sure they explain it better.
@brokeboi9996 Says:
The way they didnt show what happened really made me mad like i want to see the ropes slow mo so i can understand 😅
@vacadious Says:
I think it’s because the green rope is causing both springs to support the full weight. Then once cut it allows both springs to support only half the weight thus allowing them to compress more.
@Ancestral_Landz Says:
Im dhumber after this interaction
@vearheart42 Says:
The green rope is in tension, when you cut it the tension is released and the springs will compress bringing the weight upward.
@Imhere4sh1ts.N.giggles Says:
Those strings where tight at the end there is no way it went up
@TOXICGANG84 Says:
There is a rubber in the middle of both springs
@iamthebestmp5 Says:
The weight is going to disappear.
@hazelord Says:
Cause it goes from a series to a parallel spring basically dividing the single tension to both springs
@Honda-t9v Says:
Explanation: rope he cut = long spring, long spring have force of 1 spring but has 2 spring in total. The red and black rope = 2 spring, like the green, but force = 2 instead of 1
@saumyaranjansahu9207 Says:
I think your conclusion is not correct here universally.
In the scenarios where one of the black and red strings is longer than the other , the weight would go down due to stretching of one of the strings to induce tension and the spring expansion remaining intact.
In the scenarios, where both red and black strings are equal in lengths, the weight would come on both springs parallelly and both strings would be stretched. So spring expansion would be halved, but string expansion due to stretching is still there !! The weight would go down if ( length of black/red strings - length of green string - length of one expanded spring) is higher than the reduction in expansion of spring.
And the weight would go up, if it's vice versa.
Apparently, your set up in this shorts satisfies the last condition XD

Achilles tendon
@KanpaiPodcast Says:
Don't see any green rope??
@sapphicquartz Says:
It's because the string is connecting the two springs which gives both the springs direct load of the weight and in turn stretching more than if the strings + less weighted springs does
@mikeallardii9713 Says:
The dude that said sideways is on psychedelic drugs
@Strud25 Says:
The green rope us attached to springs on a central pillar, all of the weight goes straight through.
By cutting the green rip you remove the weight from the springs which makes the ripe go up as the red and black strings arent attached to the springs.
@Foxxxx5142 Says:
I knew it would go up because it’s springs springs don’t go down unless enough force is applied
@Funzu971 Says:
Its funny that some would think it will break the law of physics
@chickenbutt-d5c Says:
Woah. Gorgeous man. Unexpected
@melazmusic Says:
it depends on the spring strengths
@Landyn-g3b Says:
It’ll go down because the green rope is the rope that is holding the top in the bottom pieces together, and there are some slack between the red or orange and the other rope because of physics. It will drop down slightly until both of the remaining ropes are tense.
@Itsmqm808 Says:
Based off the force and physics of the weight set when you cut the green rope where both wires are attached to both strings the weight negative is out and that’s why it seems to go up in diameter instead of down it is simple physics Newton would roll in his grave
@jch19805 Says:
Bro who thought it was going to the side 🤔
@INooB75 Says:
How
@HarshSharma-b8v Says:
The reason is spring force is more in less in parallel combination then series combination. Firstly they are in series after cutting the green one they went parallel.
@Redstoner34526 Says:
It's because the springs go from being in series to in parallel. In series, assuming the springs are the same the spring constant is equal to half of one of the springs, but now that the ropes have tension the spring constant is going to be equal to twice one of the springs. So essentially the spring constant is being quadrupled and therefore the springs won't stretch as much.
@alexparrott6558 Says:
Ahhh spring travel
@Harveyraymond2005 Says:
Double the spring power to lift it now they arnt on end but side by side
@ilan9588 Says:
Yup. In the setup with the green rope, each spring experiences 100% of the weight because they are stacked sequentially. When you remove the green rope, the weight is shared by both springs, so each spring is only pulling half the weight, which means that spring travel is halved.
@simonsan5271 Says:
Of course it will go up. People have no imagination
