In this video Paul Andersen explains how the total energy of a system is the combination of kinetic, potential and internal energy of the objects. He then shows you how to calculate the kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy,...

When you hear the word, "Work," what is the first thing you think of? Maybe sitting at a desk? Maybe plowing a field? Maybe working out? Work is a word that has a little bit of a different meaning in Physics and today, Shini is going to...

Astronauts need to know their mass while in orbit, but a normal scale would be free-falling around the Earth with them. So how do they measure their mass without gravity?

In this video Paul Andersen explains how simple harmonic motion occurs when a restoring force returns an object toward equilibrium. The two types of harmonic motion studied in AP Physics are the mass spring oscillator and the simple...

This video walks through a physics problem to determine the spring constant of a spring and the potential energy stored when it is compressed by a falling object. It demonstrates calculations related to spring forces and energy.

In this video, we cover the key concepts from Unit 3 of AP Physics 1: Work, Energy, and Power. We explore how kinetic energy is calculated, the work done by constant and conservative forces, and delve into potential energies, including...

This review of the second half of Unit 2: Forces and Translational Dynamics for AP Physics 1, we cover key topics such as Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation, spring force, and circular motion. We explain gravitational interactions...

This video covers: - The types of elasticity (compress, stretch & bending) - The types of deformation (elastic & inelastic) - Hooke's Law - Idea of extension - Spring constant - Force-extension graphs General info: - Suitable for all...

This video covers:

- How to use the F = ke equ

- What the spring constant k really means (how stiff the
object is)
- How to use the EPE = 0.5 k e^2 equation (EPE is elastic po
tential energy)
- That...

Lotus and Brooke put their skills to the test, but the game is rigged! This lesson will use Hooke’s Law to calculate the extension of a spring when a force is applied.

Definitions included: elastic force, Hooke’s Law,...

This problem is about determining the spring constant of a mass-spring system using conservation of energy.

This problem is about finding the centripetal force (or the net force in the in direction) for an object on a spring moving in uniform circular motion.
