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.
Calculating Enclosed Charge Using Gauss's Law

Discover the impact of a 0.09-N thrust engine on a 480 kg spacecraft's speed during 1 week of maximum power operation. Uncover the assumptions involved in this space physics scenario.
Pendulum Clock in the Rockies: Speed Change and Adjustment
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Explore the effects of altitude change on a pendulum clock's speed when moved from the Mississippi Delta to the Rocky Mountains. Learn why it runs faster or slower and how to make adjustments. Discover the assumptions involved in this fascinating timekeeping scenario.
Shearwater's Return: Average Velocities in Experiment
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Join us as we unravel the incredible journey of a shearwater seabird in an astonishing experiment. This remarkable bird was taken from its nest, flown 5150 kilometers away, and then successfully found its way back home 13.5 days later. We explore the concept of average velocity for both the return flight and the entire episode, shedding light on the bird's navigation prowess. Discover the fascinating world of animal navigation and physics in this captivating video.
