Name: Cool Ways of Looking at Relativity Category: Modern Physics Date Added: 2015-11-23 Submitter: FizziksGuy 110 years ago Albert Einstein published a theory that revolutionized the way we think about the universe. In this video I'll show you how to prove its two postulates using easy-to-understand real-world experiments, and how even the simplest understanding of quantum mechanics can be used to wrap your mind around why time must slow down the faster an object moves.

Name: Vi Hart: What's Up With Noises Category: Sound & Music Date Added: 2015-09-10 Submitter: FizziksGuy Vi Hart: What's Up With Noises

Name: Einstein's Most Famous Equation Category: Modern Physics Date Added: 2015-09-09 Submitter: FizziksGuy Published on Mar 12, 2015In 1905, Einstein published four papers that radically changed how we look at the world around us. Dubbed Einstein’s “Annus Mirabilis,” or “Year of Wonders,” it gave us revolutionary new ideas about light, atoms and how your frame of reference makes a big difference in your perception. But it was Einstein’s final paper that year that really took the cake. In it, he gave us a deceptively simple idea—that mass and energy were equivalent. He even summed it up for us with the tiny equation E=mc^2. Video by Chris Smith for Symmetry magazine.…
