  • by the way, the student with the violin played: Sonata 3 by Ysaye

  • Comment removed

  • His ability to draw diagrams on a chalkboard rivals anything I saw at the Met.

  • Would you Expect a Violin String to Resonate At Several Harmonics SIMULTANEOUSLY?

  • when he said we were gonna see the sound, it reminded me of synesthesia XD

  • You'd need to have very low IQ to not understand this guy...

  • @hifhif123 how low? give me some numbers

  • min 35 is the what my life as a student is all about. humility and respect towards a brilliant teacher

  • we who are about to learn, salute you!

  • my god. probably the first video on youtube without dislikes. noone dared to do that:)) walter lewin rocks!!!!

  • Dr.Lewin I bow at your feet!!! You are an amazing teacher....Your teaching style is beyond imagination...You make the toughest material silky soft, pulverised enough to be absorbed straight into the brain. I in fact started to love Physics, no kidding. Once I used to dread this subject. Today it seems to be the most fascinating subject. Also you use voice modulation, live examples, and whatever it takes to get the idea across, I am lucky to be able to watch these videos!!

  • wow, nearly 10 years ago.

  • @13:47 YES WE CAN hehe

  • for the time domain: omega = 1 / T

    analogue for the space domain

    k = 2pi / lambda

  • @mdinka omega = 2pi : T

  • i wish health and happiness for this great man

  • SIMPLY I LOVE YOU ....

  • this man has cleared up in 20 seconds what took my physics teacher a week of babbling and getting nowhere.

  • WOW!!! This lecture was AMAZING...

  • such ingenuity through such simplicity!!!

  • awesome.

  • Dr. Lewin is one of the best teacher I've seen, only if all lecturers were this good.. my EM teacher sucks and I have optics and EM exam this monday..

    Just wish I saw his lectures before.

  • N stands for Nancy?

  • My fav. physics teacher..

  • I wish my physics prof was as good as this guy....

  • damn. i have a headache just looking at all the work.

  • Amazing guy

    the real life Dr. Emmett Brown

  • @lidesnowi No, this guy is the system, the is the real life Doc Brown is, One… Two… THREE “If you only knew the magnificence of the 3, 6 & 9; then you would have a key to the universe.” –Nikola Tesla September "3"69 Professional Paper 69 - United States Geological Survey, Issue 69 by Geological Survey (U.S.) Earthquake No. 333 – September 3, 1899 – 3:03 “He was also obsessive-compulsive and hated round objects, human hair, jewelry and anything that wasn’t divisible by three.”
  • hitting the wrong keys on a piano is so systematically that it also follows a

    grammar, it follows laws.

  • what the fuck with waves!!

  • The diffrence between the "x"es is that the first is on a higher scale as the "x" in the replacement appears on a lower one and is only a part of the first x.

  • A problem that hasn´t been cleared out yet in physics is to name when homonyms (same word for different things) and when synonyms

    (differnt words for th same thing) are used. Mr. Lewin often speaks of "don´t confuse "this" with "that"" when synonyms are used and of "this is exactly the same as this but named differently".

    Example here: in the beginning he replaces "x" with "x - 6t". Here the both "x" stand for diffrent things and therefore the "x" is a homonym (same name, different thing). .

  • haa some street mucicians dont care what length they only care about the melody as a whole, and they might make some complex melodies than educated mucicians. . Music is more about talent and skills experience than lot of book knowlagge. But the same is true for a great mathematician, he might go ahead and invent new things even before he goes to univercity.

  • Another excellent lecture. Thank you Dr. Lewin and MIT!

  • this man is a total legend!

  • Two things I love.  Music and engineering. Physics is acceptable :)

  • good

  • 33:44 - That's Epona's Song, from Zelda hauhauha XD

  • Omg! You're totally right. I noticed it right away.

  • I could listen to the saxaphone player all day lol This was a very interesting lecture! I liked it a lot!

  • he is great , by the way of course he is a jew!! his accent tells it hahaha, and his whole preasentation! thanks once again !

  • actually thats a dutch accent. hes dutch,

  • wtf man you see race in everything....What does jew has to do with anything dummy?

  • thanks so much for these videos, electricity and magnetism is my favorite hobby / obsession

  • ....let me guess he's dutch right ?

  • ciekawa teorja

  • i strongly thank dr. lewin

    he helps a lot

    im a still a student, but i promise to contribute to this initiative when i start working.

  • Lol - now go back to High School English.

  • and you keep reading english and do not learn anything else Mr. sophisticated

  • I was commenting on the use of "learnt" in the comment below. Just funny to read, "i learnt a lot from thsi lecture".

    So... what are YOU talking about?

  • Alas! Another moron trying to take the lunguistic high ground, yet ending up making a fool of himself seeing as 'learnt' is perfectly correct.

  • linguistic*

  • ^^ hah, and I ALMOST got you on that one as well..
