so guckt mich an bin ein elch

[agapitoflores001]

Thank you for helping a lot of people MIT.Thanks for your videos.

[picodef1]

Awesome work!!!

[JZBMV]

i really like all your video Prof...

and make me starting to like physics..

Oh yeah, please let me know that MIT had scholarship program.

Greeting's from Acheh, Sumatra, Indonesia :) :) :)

[nikebrothersnoo]

why is his head vibrating...!!!?

[bmx391xmb]

@nikebrothersnoo personal research on vibrations.



[kktz]

@nikebrothersnoo Time will tell you.

[itchy8me]

@nikebrothersnoo parkison? :-(

[nikebrothersnoo]

@itchy8me that is destuction of brain cells...occuring mostly at old age???? is that right !!!

[itchy8me]

@nikebrothersnoo apparently so ya... can end in dimentia among other things.

[cuervo1957]

Can anyone tell me how it is possible to measure the vibrational frequency of an object such as a rock or a person?

[portoqwerty]

@cuervo1957 i suggest looking into geophysics. they do that all time to look for oil underground without having to drill.

[mashka888]

thanks mit

[akram4179]

Thanks Thanks Thanks Thanks Thanks!!!!!

[kostass123]

thank you!!!!!!!!!!!! Your lectures are really enlightening!!!

[babanachiket]

In my life time i have never met or seen a great teacher like him, i must assume he i socrates of 21st century, the greatest teacher in the world

[65xone]

Hi am from Algeria and this work here is very helpful thanks for all men who did this , it's hard to find courses in Algeria (courses like this with all tests and awesome professor ) thanks again .

[weweallthewayhome]

i would give anything to shake this man's hand.

[royalsnowman]

He is the professor which makes me love physics and see through the equations. Seriously

[chickenbreaker]

Thanks for your lectures.

That's more than brilliant.

[juanCarlosvp7]

thanx mit for this vids I love science...he is a great professor.

[meedan1]

More than brilliant...!

[BrilIiance]

Brilliant

[maheryagub]

The new Feynman .... Respect

[PhysicsIVIajor]

much respect

[notToast]

can't really compare to the mighty Feynman, but still, respect.

[lynx655]

I couldn't say he is on one level with Feynman.

By this time he had a Nobel-price too...

Umm... I don't know I may be a little partial but I don't see how he is a better lecturer than many of my professors. I think he is just the average physics prof. Of course that itself distinguishes him but then again I am lopsided.

And for Christs sake, however fun this is, it's still introductory physics, you learn these in the first 2 years of like 5, nothing too serious. :D

[psychobollox]

there are2 ways in which he is on the same level as Feynman:

1- Feynman made physics understandable to his students... so does Lewin;

2- Feynman shared his enthusiasm for - and love of - physics with his students... and so does Lewin.

Any other comparisons are just a series of pissing contests. Introductory? So what? This level can be a bastard if not taught by someone like Lewin, exactly as advanced quantum mechanics, if not taught by people of a similar calibre to Feynman.

[lynx655]

So does any of my professors.

[psychobollox]

good for you and good for them.

because in educational institutions, THAT's what matters.

[hawaiifiver]

not everything in physics revolves around having a nobel-prize. if thats the be all and end all of physics for you, being famous, then forget it.

[sn1pe352]

Thank the lord for MIT !

[tl267]

Amen.

[g0atsex]

What a great man.
