Motorcycle vs. Bicycle Acceleration Comparison
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Explore the fascinating comparison between the acceleration of a motorcycle going from 80 km/h to 90 km/h and a bicycle accelerating from rest to 10 km/h in the same time frame.
Moon vs. Earth Jump: Gravity's Impact on Distance
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Join us in a lunar leap! We estimate how gravity affects jumping distance on the Moon compared to Earth, with the same takeoff speed and angle. Explore the moon's reduced gravity and its impact on human capabilities.
Electron's Journey: Work and Thermal Energy Transfer
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Join us for a journey with electrons in this video! We explore the motion of an electron through a resistive strip powered by a 12V battery. Discover the electron's direction, work done by the electric field, and the transfer of energy to thermal energy in the strip.
Calculating Ion Path Radius in a Mass Spectrometer: Electric vs Magnet
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Explore how a mass spectrometer works by analyzing an ion's path through the device. Understand the relationship between electric and magnetic fields in determining the ion's trajectory. Learn to compute the radius of an ion's path within the mass spectrometer.
Sandal's Velocity Relative to Ship and Shore Observer
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Explore the intriguing physics of a sandal dropped from a moving ship and learn how to calculate its velocity relative to the ship and a stationary observer on shore.
Oscillating Mass: Period Calculation for 0.2 m Displacement
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Join us to unravel the mystery of oscillations! In this video, we'll determine the period of a mass oscillating with a 0.2 m displacement and 1.2 m/s maximum speed. Explore the physics behind periodic motion and discover the key to calculating its period. Dive into the world of harmonic motion with us!
