Discover the gravitational forces at play in a triangle of masses in this video. We calculate the net force on each mass and explore how changing the side length impacts these forces. Join us for a gravitational journey through physics.

Exploring the behavior of oil and water in a U-shaped tube when a barrier is removed. Understand the impact of differing densities on fluid heights. Witness equilibrium scenarios effects of equal densities and the displacement dynamics of lighter liquids.

Delve into the physics of high-speed tracks and calculate the radius where drivers experience a 5.5g acceleration, exploring the multiple options and their implications.

Join us to explore the science of hand-warming through friction in this video. We calculate the temperature increase as a woman rubs her hands together, converting work into thermal energy. Dive into the physics of heat generation and discover how friction can keep you warm.

In this video we tackle the real-world physics problem of calculating the spring constant for a fisherman's scale along with the amplitude and frequency of its vibrations when a fish is added. We use Hooke's Law to find the spring constant and then apply oscillation formulas to determine the amplitude and frequency of the fish's vibrations

Explore the concept of capacitance and learn how to calculate potential difference, the impact of separation, and the work required for a parallel-plate air capacitor.
