You might have heard that Earth is due for a complete flip of its magnetic field. And while our planet does have a history of this behavior, predictions of when it might happen are too complex to estimate a date for.

Have you ever wondered why we wear clothes? I mean, beyond the obvious. Why does wearing a jacket in the cold keep your warmer? What is happening to all the heat inside your body? In this episode of Crash Course Physics, Shini talks...

In this video I discuss "What is chemical engineering?" To put simply, in chemical engineering you design processes to transport, transform, and produce materials. Chemical engineering is much more than just...

In this video I discuss "What is civil engineering?" Most people probably know this major consists of working on bridges, buildings, dams, and so on. But you may not know that civil engineering is broken up into...

Earth is a living, dynamic world thanks to volcanoes and the planetary heat that fuels them. The InSight mission wants to see if Mars also has a heartbeat deep inside its cold exterior.

With its seismometer and heat probe instruments, InSight will investigate the deep dynamics of Mars, helping scientists discover what lies within its core and learn more about how rocky bodies form throughout the solar system.

You've heard of the laws of thermodynamics, but did you know there are actually four of them? It's true, and since they already had laws one, two, and three, but then wanted to formulate another more fundamental one, the number right...

In calorimetry experiments we measure heat transfer. Say we take a hot piece of metal and put it in some cold water, and measure the rise in temperature of the water as the system equilibrates. Can you use this information to calculate...
