Moon Speech - John F. Kennedy (Animated)
On September 12, 1962, John F. Kennedy gave one of the best speeches in recorded history. "We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will...

Wave Behavior at Boundaries
The video discusses the different ways in which waves behave when they encounter a boundary between two materials. The behavior can either be reflection, absorption, or transmission or a combination of the three. The video also explains...

How Is This Standing Wave Possible?
When standing waves are allowed at 15, 30, and 45 hertz on a string, then we should not see a standing wave pattern at 22 hertz. Yet, we do in this demonstration. This explains why.
