Five areas of physics worth remembering: Classical mechanics, energy and thermodynamics, electromagnetism, Relativity, and Quantum Mechanics. Classical mechanics - two main concepts worth knowing. The first is Newton’s second law: F= ma: Force equals mass times acceleration. If you apply a force to a fixed mass, it tells you how much acceleration you will get. And knowing acceleration which is the change in velocity, you can make predictions.
The second equation is the law of universal gravitation. it allows us to determine the motion of heavenly bodies. It says that the gravitational attraction between two bodies is the product of their masses divided by the distance between them squared, times a constant, called Newton’s gravitational constant.
Energy is not a vector like force or momentum, but it is just a number. Work is closely related to energy. It is force times distance traveled. Energy for most objects consists of kinetic energy plus potential energy. KE is the energy of motion, It is KE = ½ M V^2 - the more mass you have and/or the more velocity you have, the more energy you have.
Gravitational potential energy is expressed as PE = m g h - mass times the gravitational acceleration times the height. The total energy of an object is both Kinetic energy plus potential energy. Potential energy can take many forms. Gasoline or petrol has chemical potential energy. Important: Energy is always conserved. It is not created or destroyed. It only changes form.
Thermodynamics is the study of work, heat, and energy on a system. We showed energy is how much work you could do. But another form of energy is thermal energy. If a car is moving and you apply the brakes, the kinetic energy of the car gets converted to thermal energy, created by friction of the car’s brakes. Temperature is the average kinetic energy of atoms in a system. Thermal energy is the total kinetic energy of atoms in a system.
Entropy is a measure of disorder, or more accurately, the information required to describe the micro states of a system. The 2nd law of thermodynamics states that entropy of an isolated system can never decrease. Energy at lower entropy can do more work than energy at high entropy. The one way flow of Entropy seems to be the only reason we have a forward flow of time.
Electromagnetism is the study of the interaction between electrically charged particles. The essentials are in Maxwell’s equations. If you have a static object with a charge, it will affect only other charges. If you have a static magnet, it will affect only other magnets. It will not affect charges. But if you have a moving charge, it will affect a magnet. And if you have a moving magnet, it will affect a charge. The constants mu naught and epsilon naught are the permeability and permittivity of free space. These two constants determine the speed of light because they measure the resistance of space to changing electric and magnetic fields.
Special Relativity: Einstein presumed that the speed is the same in any frame of reference. This was one of the postulates.
The second postulate was principle of relativity - the laws of physics are the same for all observes who are moving at the same velocity relative to each other. Einstein showed that the only way these can be true is if time was not fixed, but was relative.
General relativity: Later Einstein showed using the same assumptions, there would be no way to tell if you were in an accelerating reference frame or standing stationary on earth. A flashlight beam will bend in gravity. But since light always takes the shortest path between any two points, this means that space-time itself is bending.
Quantum mechanics: Three principles are important. First by Max Planck, says that energy is not continuous, but is quantized. The amount of energy equals the frequency of the radiation times Planck's constant. Using this, Einstein later showed that a photon is both a wave and a particle.
The second is the Heisenberg's uncertainty principle: you cannot know both a particle’s exact position and it’s exact momentum at the same time. For a particle with mass, this means if you know exactly where a particle is, you don’t know how fast going. If you know exactly how fast it’s going, you don’t know where it is.
#allphysics
#arvinash
Schrodinger's equation: prior to measurement, quantum systems are in superposed states. This means that their properties can only be expressed as a wave function. A wave function simplified, is a set of probabilities. So in a hydrogen atom, you can’t know where to find the electron in advance. All you can know is the probability of where you might find it, if you measured it. Prior to measurement, all quantum systems are waves of probabilities. This is not a limitation of our measuring devices. It is a limitation of reality.

i heard that taking off the word "disorder" would make things easier to understand, and it did.

[@leomadero562]

Energy can only do things when theres different concentrations in different areas, for example a cold spot and a warm spot. You can use this to do whatever you want, make kinetic movement with an engine or catalyze a chemical reaction. But entropy and inneficiency means that the energy will become useless once it mixes. The cold and hot spots will become just warm, and there will be no way to use that energy to make pressure differences or anything else because in order for _anything_ to happen, there must be a flow of energy, from high to low or low to high. But when it is all average, there stops being high or low.

[@leomadero562]

Another way to describe it is to stir a cup of water. There is energy in that glass, shown by the water's movement. But with entropy, the water stops swirling. The real life problem is that this is the state the universe is in. For the cup, you can just stir it to give it more energy, but you can't just give more energy to the universe.

(They themselves are both doctors and I am from an Indian family, so you can imagine what pressure I was in) Anyhow, since the education system in our country is structured such that all science graduates must go on to become doctors, I gave up the sciences, and having done so, I pursued Law at University. These details about my life, youth and interests will no doubt bore you, but the reason I state these is that as a practicing lawyer who never had this interesting of a science teacher as you clearly demonstrate yourself to be at any period of my school life, I feel forever indebted and grateful to you from the bottom of my heart for so artfully piquing my long lost interest in science once again, to the point where I have now decided to expand my knowledge in the sciences in the duration of these rather unexpected days of pandemic where I am mostly at home with little to no clients in my practice.

As an engineering student this went above and beyond as a brief introduction to physics and I learned a good bit

[@brendanfan3245]

The best speech so far of the general concept of physics, thank you!

[@loveoflyricism2769]

Because of the efforts of you men the quality of my life is profoundly enhanced. When I graduated high school I didn’t understand algebra. I was so incredibly weak in mathematics for most of my life. KZbin did something for me that college lectures never could. I don’t know what it is but I just learn from KZbin. Thank you.

[@howarddeares3733]

Your video was inspiring.Very exciting, thank you for a well done presentation with great material. Thanks , Howard

[@Homo_sAPEien]

Thank you, and cool video! I’m definitely going to watch this more than once because, I’m new to most this stuff.

[@kamalpersaud2184]

Wow! This channel is so insightful and entertaining. I am a business student but I am intrigued with the genius in the presenter. I am particularly impressed with the simple explanation of the complexities in physics.

[@gokuls9929]

Awesome video! I also loved the connectors you used to fluidly transfer from one topic to the other.

[@PARTHAPRATIMCHATTERJEE]

Excellently presented such a vast body of knowledge in a nutshell ! Good work ! Thanks ...

*He is explaining stuff that professors and teachers have failed to explain over the years, again and again*

[@sanathkumar6526]

Lemme explain why....It's all in the brain, when u are in ur class listening to ur teacher, U may be bored or distracted by ur friends AND on top of that, like be honest, When u are in ur class, the thing that's in ur mind is "I have to study well so that I can get good marks" NOT "I need to gain knowledge for the long run".....But here, U clicked on the video just purely because of gaining knowledge, Like there is no pressure of test being done so ur stress gets reduced, Lesser the stress,Better the brain functions....Hence u understand stuff better in YT videos compared to say ur class

[@minh9545]

@@sanathkumar6526 or they are not explain it simple enough.

[@angelee9350]

When teachers discuss, it's boring XD. They act just like robots pretending they understand the material in a deep way. It's lucky if you find someone who's passionately talking about the subject and teaching it with fascination.

[@alberteinstein7683]

I'm very much impressed by the way of your simple explanation of complex topics !

[@tinawelch3005]

so much info packed into articulate, succint presentation...i will enjoy looking for applications in my everyday. thank you, sir.

[@carlosmparada1]

Incredible Video! Thank you!

[@sarthak8802]

Why this channel is so underrated. He is explaining so nicely

[@robertryder1097]

What an artful summation of physical reality as we experience it - bravo!

[@TylerD_npc]

Awesome video. I wish we had this channel when I was in high school. Your introduction reminded me of Sheldon Cooper though.. "There's no such thing as little physics. Physics encompasses the entire universe. From quantum particles to supernovas. From spinning electrons to spinning galaxies."

[@jimsyd6148]

Thanks for this video, great job !!

[@ebentee]

I feel like watching your videos all days, it makes me the happiest person when ever I am watching them. Your way of explaining things is off the roof. Thank you so much 😊 I wonder why you’re not having millions of subscribers 👍🙏

[@rhouser1280]

I really wish I took physics in high school! I wasn’t interested, fast forward 30yrs, I can’t get enough! Thanks for your videos man!

[@avante-gardegeckos1233]

I can’t figure out what science I want to study for college, so I’m exploring physics, geology, chemistry, ecology, etc. through this! It’s hard when you have an interest in everything, bc it’s all connected anyways. Thank you for this!

[@johanas3578]

ahh that is such a nice thing to hear, even I relate to the interest in everything part. I hope you've found your interested course. What made you realise that you love science the most?

[@TheBanditHunters]

Phenomenal. Merry Christmas.

[@richardmasters8424]

Arvin - many thanks for this. I’m going to show it to all my engineering students after I’ve shown them where the fundamental units come from.

[@jasonjones2064]

Answer Gravy: This isn’t part of the question, but if you’ve taken intro physics, you’ve probably seen the equations for kinetic energy, momentum, and acceleration in a uniform gravitational field (like the one you’re experiencing right now). But unless you’re actually a physicist, you’ve probably never been freaked out by seeing a Lagrangian work. This gravy is full of calculus and intro physics. The “action”, S\left(\vec{x}(t) ight), is a function of the path a system takes, \vec{x}(t)=(x_1(t),x_2(t),x_3(t))=(x(t),y(t),z(t)). More specifically, it’s the integral of the Lagrangian between any two given times: S\left(\vec{x}(t) ight)=\int_{t_1}^{t_2}\mathcal{L}\left(\vec{x}(t),\dot{\vec{x}}(t) ight)dt where t1 and t2 are the start and stop times, \vec{x} is a path, \dot{\vec{x}} is the time derivative (velocity) of that path, and \mathcal{L} is some given function of \vec{x} and \dot{\vec{x}}. If you want to chose a path that extremizes (either minimizes or maximizes) S, then you can do it by solving the Euler-Lagrange equations: \frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial x_i}=\frac{d}{dt}\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial \dot{x}_i} This is called the Euler-Lagrange equations (plural) because this is actually several equations. Each different variable (x1=x, x2=y, x3=z) tells you something different. In regular ol’ calculus, if you want to find the value of x that extremizes a function f(x), you solve \frac{df}{dx}=0 for the value x. Using the Euler-Lagrange equations is philosophically similar: to find the path that extremizes S, you solve \frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial x_i}=\frac{d}{dt}\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial \dot{x}_i} for the path \vec{x}(t). The Lagrangian from earlier, for a free-falling object near the surface of the Earth, is: \mathcal{L}=\frac{1}{2}m\left|\dot{\vec{x}}(t) ight|^2-mgz(t)=\frac{1}{2}m\left[\left(\dot{x}(t) ight)^2+\left(\dot{y}(t) ight)^2+\left(\dot{z}(t) ight)^2 ight]-mgz(t) For z: \begin{array}{l}\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial z}=-mg\\[2mm]\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial \dot{z}}=m\dot{\vec{z}}(t)\\[2mm]\frac{d}{dt}\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial \dot{z}}=m\ddot{\vec{z}}(t)\end{array} So the E-L equation says: m\ddot{\vec{z}}(t)=-mg or \ddot{\vec{z}}(t)=-g In other words, “everything accelerates downward at the same rate”. Doing the same thing for x or y, you get \ddot{\vec{x}}(t)=\ddot{\vec{y}}(t)=0, which says “things don’t accelerate sideways”. Both good things to know. You wanna be even slicker, note that this Lagrangian is independent of time. That means that \frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial t}=0. Therefore, applying the chain rule: \begin{array}{rl}\frac{d\mathcal{L}}{dt}=&\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial t}+\sum_i\left(\dot{x}_i\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial x_i}+\ddot{x}_i\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial \dot{x}_i} ight)\\[2mm]=&\sum_i\left(\dot{x}_i\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial x_i}+\ddot{x}_i\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial \dot{x}_i} ight)\end{array} But we have the E-L equations! Plugging those in: \begin{array}{rl}=&\sum_i\left(\dot{x}_i\frac{d}{dt}\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial \dot{x}_i}+\ddot{x}_i\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial \dot{x}_i} ight)\\[2mm]=&\sum_i\frac{d}{dt}\left(\dot{x}_i\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial \dot{x}_i} ight)\end{array} And therefore: \frac{d}{dt}\left(\sum_i\dot{x}_i\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial \dot{x}_i}-\mathcal{L} ight)=0 This thing in the parentheses is constant (since it never changes in time). In the case of \mathcal{L}=\frac{1}{2}m\left[\left(\dot{x} ight)^2+\left(\dot{y} ight)^2+\left(\dot{z} ight)^2 ight]-mgz we find that this constant thing is: \begin{array}{rl}&\sum_i\dot{x}_i\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial \dot{x}_i}-\mathcal{L}\\[2mm]=&\left[\dot{x}\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial \dot{x}}+\dot{y}\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial \dot{y}}+\dot{z}\frac{\partial\mathcal{L}}{\partial \dot{z}} ight]-\mathcal{L}\\[2mm]=&\left[\dot{x}(m\dot{x})+\dot{y}(m\dot{y})+\dot{z}(m\dot{z}) ight]-\left[\frac{1}{2}m\left[\left(\dot{x} ight)^2+\left(\dot{y} ight)^2+\left(\dot{z} ight)^2 ight]-mgz ight]\\[2mm]=&\frac{1}{2}m\left[\left(\dot{x} ight)^2+\left(\dot{y} ight)^2+\left(\dot{z} ight)^2 ight]+mgz\end{array} Astute students of physics 1 will recognize the sum of kinetic energy plus gravitational potential. In other words: this is a derivation of the conservation of energy for free-falling objects. A more general treatment can be done using Noether’s Theorem, which says that every symmetry produces a conserved quantity. For example, a time symmetry (\mathcal{L} doesn’t change in time) leads to conservation of energy and a space symmetry (\mathcal{L} doesn’t change in some direction) leads to conservation of momentum in that direction.

Need to paste that into a TeX editor to read it even though I write TeX code all the time.

[@jasonjones2064]

Anton Fetzer lol...... I really should have checked that first😂

[@TheTatzeLP]

I recommend using the physics package in LaTeX, it makes writing derivatives sooo much easier

[@pigicompany]

Every single movement of life can be explained by physics and that’s the magic of physics and you prove it very well ..

[@webdesignbyjonny]

I'm a bachelor of physics and I'd just like to say this video is great, what an excellent way of explaining these phenomena! I wish there were more videos like this that were shown to me in high school or in primary education. I feel that people don't realise how truly fascinating the universe is until learning these concepts. Great job 👍🏻

If only all teachers could explain like this I would deffo not be bored
