Everyone and their mom knows about E = mc^2, it's the most famous equation in science, and there are plenty of posters you can buy for your dorm room with Einstein's face and this equation floating mysteriously around his head. But what...

For our third quantum problem we will visit harmonic oscillators. In a classical setting, this is like the ball on a spring we examined when learning about Hooke's law in the classical physics series. But this has quantum application as...

Tipler Cylinders? Wormholes? Ring Lasers? Is it possible to travel BACK in time? In this action packed episode, Dom is hunted down by a government agent who wants to know how he made a time machine.

Development of Quantum Mechanics: Photoelectric Effect Example 1

Lets talk about one of the most misunderstood but awesome concepts in physics. The Heisenberg uncertainty principle. Or maybe it should be the Heisenberg fuzziness principle instead? Would that confuse less people?

Blackbody Radiation Example Problem #1

Lasers are known to burn things, fix eyes, and dance on powerpoint presentations. But they can also be used to cool objects to some of the coldest temperatures in the universe.

This is a classic experiment that is frequently referred to when describing quantum phenomena, so we definitely have to go over it a little bit. What happens when you pass a beam of light through a screen with two slits? What about when...

How did the field of quantum mechanics come about in the first place? The Rayleigh-Jeans catastrophe, also known as the ultraviolet catastrophe was a prediction by the Rayleigh-Jeans law that a blackbody would radiate infinite amounts of...

Polarization: Theory and Example

On why I was very wrong. In my previous video, I said that spin isnt very linked to angular momentum at all- but in fact, theres a key property of angular momentum that spin has, suggesting they are linked after all. Book recommendation:...

In this episode Ill describe the uncertainty principle of quantum mechanics and talk about what it really means.

What are the issues with the Bohr model of the atom (Neils Bohr)? Some issues with this mode helped early physicists invent and develop the discipline of quantum mechanics.<br/>

This is an introductory video to Albert Einstein's photoelectric effect, the discipline that made him a Nobel laureate. <br/>

Hawking radiation was first discovered by English scientist Stephen Hawking in 1974. Prior to this discovery, our knowledge of black holes was very limited. It was believed that black holes were completely black and that they did not...

Quantum physics deals with the foundation of our world – the electrons in an atom, the protons inside the nucleus, the quarks that build those protons, and the photons that we perceive as light. These constitute everything that we are...

Why don't protons and electrons just slam into each other and explode? Why do different elements emit light of different colors? Niels Bohr knew why. And now you will too!

This live-action video program is about the word Mechanics. The program is designed to reinforce and support a student's comprehension and retention of the word Mechanics through use of video footage, photographs, diagrams and colorful,...

Vectors may seem very difficult when youre first introduced to them, but I hope this video helps you see theyre not that scary! This is the start of a whole series of linear algebra, and I will cover vectors, the scalar product,...

This video covers how imaginary numbers are used to solve real worlds problems in math, science, and engineering as well as a derivation of the most beautiful equation in math. The main topics include signals, controls, quantum...
