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

Explore the intricate dynamics of an L-C circuit as we analyze voltage current and energy transitions between a 60.0 millihenry inductor and a 250 microfarad capacitor. Understand the principles of energy transfer and storage in this system. Uncover key insights from calculations on capacitor charges and inductor energies at specific circuit conditions.

Discover how energy conservation principles determine the velocity of a bouncing ball. Relate the ball's height and its potential and kinetic energies. Understand the velocity change upon impact and rebound.

Explore the fascinating world of friction in motion! In this video, we delve into the concept of frictional forces as we examine a crate being pushed across a factory floor. We'll calculate the magnitude and direction of the frictional force and uncover its role in maintaining constant velocity. Discover the science behind everyday motion.

In this video we tackle the real-world physics problem of calculating the spring constant for a fisherman's scale along with the amplitude and frequency of its vibrations when a fish is added. We use Hooke's Law to find the spring constant and then apply oscillation formulas to determine the amplitude and frequency of the fish's vibrations
