PHYSICS 103: General PHYSICS

Join us for a dramatic river rescue mission! In this video, we solve the problem of how a rescue team can reach a child in danger of drowning in a fast-flowing river. We calculate the angle from the shore for their pilot to approach the child directly, considering the river's current and the boat's speed. Explore the principles of vector addition and save lives!

Discover the math behind car spring oscillations when driving over bumps. Understand how a car's weight and driver affect the spring constant and resulting frequency. Grasp the interplay of forces and how they dictate harmonic motion.

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.

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.

Explore the dynamics of a bead under constant force. Understand its acceleration, velocity over time, and how to calculate its kinetic energy. Witness the interplay of motion equations and real-world applications in a simple system.

Learn how to determine the hot resistance and current in the electrical system of older cars with a 6.00-V voltage supply.
