Boat anchor in a lake: A Feynman lecture exercise demystified
Demystify the classic Feynman Lecture exercise on a boat anchor in a lake! This video breaks down the physics behind buoyancy, forces, and motion in an engaging and easy-to-understand way. Perfect for ...
ABSTRACT: This study presents a conceptual and geometrically motivated exploration of structured wave superposition using the Simulated Unified Resultant Amplitude Method (S-URAM), with particular ...
Who was Richard Feynman and what did he actually say about nanotechnology? Back in 1959 it was only six years since Crick and Watson had determined the double-helix structure of DNA, the laser and ...
Irrespective of what he got right and what he got wrong in his famous 1959 lecture, Richard Feynman's vision and imagination have had an important role in the development of nanoscience and ...

Watching a ski jumper fly through the air might get you wondering, “How do they do that?” The answer is – physics!That’s why this episode, we have two physicists – Amy Pope, a physicist from Clemson ...
Science fiction became science fact in 2022 when NASA’s DART mission took the first steps towards creating a planetary defence system that could someday protect Earth from a catastrophic asteroid ...
This talk tells the story of symmetry in theoretical physics, and its interplay with developments in our understanding of gravity over the years. In this talk, McNamara explores the power of symmetry ...
Following Feynman's lectures on gravitation, we consider the theory of the gravitational (massless spin-2) field in flat spacetime and present the third- and fourth-order Lagrangian densities for the ...
