PHYS 5450: Intro to Quantum Mechanics

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.

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

Embark on a celestial journey! In this video, we calculate the altitude above a distant planet's surface where a starship orbits. Discover how astronauts experience reduced free-fall acceleration and the fascinating dynamics of space travel.

Learn how to compute the displacement of a ball rolling off a table using calculus. Through the integration of velocity over a specific time interval, determine the ball's position. Uncover the mathematics behind real-world motion scenarios.

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.

Delve into Newton's third law of motion and explore how the choice of the 'system of interest' influences whether force pairs cancel each other out.
