Upon viewing the Measuring video series, students will be able to do the following: Generally explain that the process of measuring involves making observations of things using tools. Understand that measurements often involve the use...

How do we know anything? And how can we know things better? Michael de Podesta explains why measurement is so important. Subscribe for regular science videosf='http://bit.ly/RiSubscRibe' target='_blank' rel='nofollow'>videos...

Have you ever wondered why you sweat when you get too hot from running or shiver on a cold winter's day in this video we are going to explain why your body behaves like this. Humans are endotherms and this means we are warm blooded we...

The video is a lecture presentation about alcohols as fuels. The presenter explains how different alcohols react with oxygen in the air to produce carbon dioxide and water, and that these reactions are exothermic. The presenter then...

In this video Paul Andersen defines Q10 as the ratio between reactions at different temperatures. He then gives you an example of how it could be calculated. He also includes extensions of other scientific phenomenon that could created...

Upon viewing the Heat and Energy video series, students will be able to do the following: State the difference between kinetic and potential energy. Name and describe six different forms of energy: thermal, chemical, mechanical,...

In this video Paul Andersen explains how the temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in an object. The temperature is proportional to the average kinetic energy according to the Kelvin scale. At absolute zero...

This video explores the concept of measuring the hottest place on Earth, challenging the assumption that Death Valley holds the record. By discussing the limitations of traditional weather stations and highlighting the use of satellite...

Contrary to popular belief, temperature is not how hot or cold something is! This is a common misconception that many high school chemistry and science students have. In this video we will dive in to what temperature actually is and what...

Measuring actual temperature consists of recording the air temperature from a thermometer that has been kept inside a Stevenson screen or by using any other appropriate instrument. “Feels like temperature,” on the other hand, is a...

This video explains the concept of calorimetry. The video demonstrates how to use calorimetry in a school lab to measure the energy content of food. It goes through the steps of the experiment and how to perform fair testing, as well as...

Sun is obviously the hottest thing in our Solar System, but it is a mere candle when compared to several other stars and stellar phenomena, particularly supernova. A supernova is a transient event that marks the last evolutionary stage...

Specific rotation is a standardized measure of how much a chiral compound rotates plane-polarized light. It's dependent on the substance’s concentration, the path length of the light, and the temperature, providing key insights into a...

What do we think the universe is quantum? What if the universe was not quantized?

Classical mechanics was doing just fine after Isaac Newton reduced nearly all mechanical phenomena to a single powerful equation:...

The video discusses experiments that investigate how the emission and absorption of infrared radiation depend on the nature of the surface. The experiments involve using copper beakers with different painted surfaces and measuring the...

In this video, the teacher explains the major difference in climate between northern New England and Florida, which is temperature. They discuss how latitude plays a significant role in determining the temperature of a region. The video...

The video is a lecture on how work can be done on a gas to increase its pressure. The lecturer begins by explaining how the temperature and volume of a gas affects its pressure. The video then goes on to explain how work can be done on a...

Vincent spends a night in an igloo, enduring temperatures that drop to minus 15°C outside, to test its insulating properties. With the help of experts, he then attempts to raise the temperature inside the igloo, discovering the...
