PHYS 1306: Intro Astro-Stel & Gal

Unlock the secrets of battery performance in this video! We calculate the terminal voltage for a battery with internal resistance, connected in series with resistors of different values. Explore the effects of resistance on voltage in electrical circuits.

Discover the significance of models in the fascinating realms of relativity and quantum mechanics, where conditions defy our everyday experience. Explore the concept of a model and its role in understanding these complex theories.

Unpack the concept of normal force on a sports car and its driver atop a hill. Utilize Newton's second law to calculate these forces based on speed and hill curvature. Discover the speed at which the driver feels weightless in the car.

Dive into the world of buoyancy and density in this video! We explore how an object's weight changes when immersed in water and oil. Join us to calculate the density of the object and the oil, unraveling the principles of fluid dynamics and buoyant forces.

Understand how to determine the coefficient of kinetic friction using a wooden block and a spring. Employing the law of conservation of energy, we use the spring's compression and stretch measurements. Through energy equations and Newton's second law, we deduce that ? equals 0.4.
