PHY 101: Major Concepts of Physics I

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.

Join us in this enlightening video as we explore the fascinating world of projectiles and their optimal launch angles. We dive into the physics behind how a fixed initial speed affects the range of a projectile and why, for most angles, there are two choices that yield the same range. Delve into factors that affect an archer's ability to hit a target, including wind, and learn why a smaller angle, closer to the horizontal, is often preferable. Discover when and why a larger angle may be necessar

Explore the physics of a light-rail commuter train's motion. Understand how to calculate times for acceleration and deceleration using the equations of motion. Dive into the concept of emergency deceleration and its implications.

Explore the physics of a car's quick deceleration, including angular acceleration, revolutions, time, distance, initial velocity, and the realism of the scenario.

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.
