This video explains the principle of moments, which is the application of torque or rotational force to an object. The video breaks down the concept by discussing the anti-clockwise and clockwise moments that act on an object and how...

This is a lecture video that explains various methods used to measure the speed of waves. The video starts by introducing two equations that can be used to calculate the wave speed. It then focuses on two examples to explain how to use...

An 8.2 magnitude earthquake shook Chile on Tuesday evening, sending tsunami waves to the coast where people have been asked to evacuate.

This video is a lecture presentation on orbits. It discusses how an object remains in orbit and what affects the orbital speed of an object. The presenter explains the role gravity plays in keeping celestial bodies in orbit and gives...

You should already know that velocity-time graphs look like this... and how we can use them to map out a journey.



If you’re unsure, you may want to watch this video first...In this video we’re going to look...

In this video, we are going to learn about volume of prisms, and how to calculate it. To start, we talk about length, and area. Length measures across one dimension and so is usually measured in cm or m. Area measures across two...

Circular Motion Summary

This video is a lecture on the concept of pressure due to fluids, including liquids and gases. The video also covers how pressure is affected by the depth below the surface of the fluid, the density of the fluid, and the gravitational...

Again with the graphs? Yes. Absolutely Yes. Graphs are such an important part of any science, especially physics. The more you work with graphs, the more you will understand them. Here we combine graphs and uniformly accelerated...

This video is a lecture on moments and the principle of moments. It explains how to calculate the moments of forces and how to determine whether an object is balanced or unbalanced based on the principle of moments. The video includes...

Calculus is used to derive and define Impulse. The force as a function of time acting on a ball is demonstrated and graphed in slow motion. Want Lecture Notes?f='https://www.flippingphysics.com/impulse-area.html' target='_blank'...

Through colorful animations and common everyday examples, this video helps students learn how to measure length and temperature using the metric system. Both the Celsius and Kelvin temperature scales are explained in depth. Emphasis is...

Wave Equation | Waves | Physics | FuseSchool Waves have a frequency (the number of complete waves passing a point every second and measured in Hertz), wavelength (the distance between two consecutive points on a wave) and amplitude - the...

Unit vectors and the derivative are used to determine the velocity and acceleration of an object from the object’s r position vector. The motion is identified as Uniformly Accelerated Motion.

Speed, Distance, Time and Acceleration



Speed and acceleration are Physics concepts that we encounter every day, and an understanding of these concepts is crucial to most areas o

This basic Excel Macro tutorial demonstrates how to import and export values from a VBA program, display a message box, and write an IF statement. This video is followed by examples on writing this same program in MATLAB and Python.

This is a lecture video on the topic of calculating speed. The video explains how to calculate the speed of an object based on its distance travelled and time taken. The presenter uses simple examples to illustrate the equations used to...

The video is a lesson on how to calculate the upward forces acting on a light beam that is supported at both ends and has a weight placed on it. The instructor explains the steps involved in analyzing moments to calculate the forces F1...

Particle-on-a-Ring Example #2: Calculate Energy, Wavelength, and Momentum

Here we've been given an equation describing the acceleration of a particle. Using only two formulas we can solve this problem: a = dv/dt and v = dx/dt. The problem is solved by pushing through the mathematics and plugging in boundary...
