Critical Angle for Total Internal Reflection
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Discover the magic of total internal reflection in this video! We explore how a ray of light refracts when traveling from glass into water. Find out the critical angle needed for total reflection, preventing any light from entering the water. Dive into the world of optics and refraction.
Comparing Single-Pane and Double-Pane Heat Loss Ratios
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Explore the world of thermal insulation and heat loss in this video. We compare single-pane and double-pane windows, calculating the heat loss ratio. Delve into the fascinating science of heat transfer and insulation factors. Join us to uncover the secrets behind energy-efficient windows.
hysics of a Coin Drop in an Ascending Elevator
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
In an elevator ascending, an occupant drops a coin, which accelerates at a different rate than expected. This reveals the elevator's own acceleration towards the Earth. By analyzing forces and tensions, we determine the cable's tension to be 16000 N.
Pebble Velocity for Horizontal Impact on Juliet's Window
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Explore the physics behind calculating the velocity of pebbles thrown by Romeo to hit Juliet's window with only a horizontal component.
Advantages of Laboratory-Based Measurement Standards
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Discover the key reasons why measurement standards rooted in laboratory procedures offer advantages over standards based on specific objects, like the international prototype kilogram. Dive into the world of metrology and standardization in this informative video.
Calculating Work from Speed Change: Water-Skiing Physics Explained!
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
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.
