PHY 222: PHY 222

Discover the limits of circular motion as we explore the maximum speed a ball can achieve before its string breaks. Uncover the physics behind this thrilling scenario in our engaging video.

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 physics behind calculating the velocity of pebbles thrown by Romeo to hit Juliet's window with only a horizontal component.

Explore the physics behind a water-skier accelerating from an initial speed to a faster one. Learn how to calculate the work done using the change in kinetic energy. Understand the principle of energy conservation through real-world examples.

Join us in exploring the concept of significant figures in numerical values. Learn to identify and count significant figures in various numbers, from whole numbers to decimals. Understand the precision and accuracy of your measurements through this engaging video.
