PHYS 665: Solid State Physics I

Dive into the world of projectile motion as we calculate the horizontal and vertical distances a launched projectile covers. Explore the impact of angle and speed on the trajectory, all explained in this engaging video.

In this video we break down a complex physics problem about a 330-kg piano sliding down a 28° incline while a man resists its motion. We meticulously calculate the force exerted by the man work done by various forces including friction and gravity and the net work done on the piano.

Discover the physics behind the angle formed by loosely hanging hand straps on a streetcar negotiating a curved turn.

Dive into the world of aviation as we calculate the thrust required for a medium-sized jet to maintain a cruising speed of 230 m/s at a specific altitude. Explore the impact of air density and drag coefficients on aircraft performance.

In this educational video, we dive into the concept of volume and its units. We explore the correct units for measuring volume and discuss the common misconception that a cylinder's volume is given by ?r^3h. Join us for a comprehensive explanation of the fundamentals of volume measurement and understand why the given formula doesn't hold.

Explore the world of high-performance sports cars and learn how to calculate their average acceleration when accelerating and coming to a stop.
