Integrals: Crash Course Physics #3
Season 1
Episode 3
Continuing with last week's introduction of calculus, Shini leads us through the ways that integrals can help us figure out things like distance when we have several other key bits of information. Say, for instance, you wanted to know how far your window was off the ground. By using integrals, a tennis ball, and a stop watch, you can figure that out!

Let's talk about astrophysics, cosmology and how our universe works.
10:19
Let's talk Einstein and Nuclear Physics. What does E=MC2 actually mean? Why is it useful?
9:02
Why is e=mc2 such a big deal? And what about this grumpy cat in a box and probability?
8:38
Shini introduces the idea of Quantum Mechanics and how it helps us understand light.
8:25
We've all heard of relativity, but what is it? How does it relate to light and motion?
9:56
Shini talks to us about optical instruments and how they make magnification possible.
8:21
We've learned about light and how to bend it to our will. But what can we LEARN from it?
9:41
Light's behavior seems counterintuitive. That is, until you figure out light is a wave.
9:26
Sunlight, moonlight, torchlight... They all work the same. Let's talk about light!
Maxwell's Equations tell us a lot about electromagnetic interactions and physics.
9:53
We've talked about how AC circuits change voltage, but let's take a deeper look.
8:18
Getting power at home is pretty amazing – and much more complicated than it may seem.
