The REAL source of Gravity might SURPRISE you…

Einstein’s general relativity says gravity is spacetime curvature, but what does that mean? Let’s take a look at how gravitational time dilation results in an effect that looks a lot like gravity. The flow of time brings mass together. ________________________________ VIDEO ANNOTATIONS/CARDS What the HECK is Time?! Why Does Stuff Happen? Gradients! General Relativity Playlist: […]

Angular Motion and Torque

More spinning things! Records, and wheels, and doors, and other fun things. The equations that govern this kind of motion are just like the ones we learned in kinematics, except they have different symbols. Lots of funky Greek letters in this one, folks.

4. Gauss's Law and Application to Conductors and Insulators

For more information about Professor Shankar’s book based on the lectures from this course, Fundamentals of Physics: Mechanics, Relativity, and Thermodynamics, visit  Fundamentals of Physics, II (PHYS 201) Lecture begins with a recap of Gauss’s Law, its derivation, its limitation and its applications in deriving the electric field of several symmetric geometries—like the infinitely long wire. The […]

An Introduction to Stress and Strain

This video is an introduction to stress and strain, which are fundamental concepts that are used to describe how an object responds to externally applied loads. Stress is a measure of the distribution of internal forces that develop within a body to resist these applied loads. There are two main types of stress – normal […]
