  1. 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.

    The Big Race

    Might want to go revisit what "Moment of Inertia" is again and what it means qualitatively. Good start, but a couple of conceptual inconsistencies here that would be good to iron out. :-)

    Electrifying!

    Wow, Disney is violent!

    Super "Flight"

    Wow, Thor has a mass of 291 kg? That's a BIG dude!!!

    There It Goes Again!

    That'd certainly wake you up in a hurry!
  8. A terrific opportunity, great reflection, and a fun day!
  9. Outstanding reflection and summation, and a great day as well!

    Bicycle Riding

    How much of a role does air resistance play in driving a car?

    Photon Camp

    Wow, they had singles week at Optics camp? Who'd have guessed! More seriously, terrific blog post and reflection on your time at Photon Camp.

    Unstoppable

    This also leads to the E=mc2 equation, and is the underlying theory behind the functionality of particle colliders.

    Ending With a Big Bang

    So any thoughts on the Big Bang Theory? Critiques?
  14. To make your basketball adventures slightly simpler, the height of the basketball hoop is always 10 feet... though I'm probably not helping much.
  15. It's been a few years since I last did this, but I bet my little girls would love going on a geocaching "treasure hunt." Great reminder!
  16. So glad to hear you enjoyed it!

    Me + Bikes = Bad Luck

    How'd the test go?

    pi

    I'm looking forward to seeing what wonderful things you discover as well!

    There It Goes Again!

    How weird and scary! Did your Mom ever ask about the cause?

    Fouette Turns

    I was just at ballet for an hour last night. Wish I'd been thinking more about physics and rotational inertia to liven up my wait time!
  21. "Either way, there is no worse feeling than picking your phone up off the ground and checking to see if it is cracked." Give it time -- you'll discover worse feelings!

    Helicopters

    Spinning wings certainly seems to me to include a whole lot of physics and maybe even just a touch of witchcraft!

    Tubing

    I'm still trying to figure out why my 3-year-old and the tube always seem to go UNDER when they're pulled behind the boat, yet heavier riders ride on the waves. This may take some further thought!
  24. It's the touchdown part that scares me...

    Happy Fall Y'all

    It'd be cool to analyze the physics of a leaf blower. The different current directions were mesmerizing me this past weekend...
