  • beautiful lecture!!! just awesome

  • I am a Greek student

    In Greece education is considered free

    But the educational system sucks so much.

    This year i will give exams.

    I Pay teachers to actually teach me a few things in order to achieve in the exams.

    The Greek educational system is built in a way so we have to pay others to achieve and also just to memorize things.

    Over 95% of Greek students do the same thing.

    We pay at least 600 Euros a month to pass the exams.

    Can this be considered free?

    Can this even be considered as education?

  • Rather than 0 speed, doesn't he meant 0 Newtons of force?

  • and at night the travelled distance for light in air is soooo great, that even a red light does not pass thru it and you see black sky... thats maybe the first time in your life to understand why at night the sky is black :)

  • @someone20ify knowing what pi, acceleration (meter / second / second) and energy are, is pretty crucial!

    Those things require some thinking about before they make sense in the real world!

    Don't give up though!

  • if you like science with foreign accents, check my new channel

  • @NWOCORPTERRORISMNEWS

    I agree with you man, but most of the time, high paying jobs wont hire without degrees, doctors, engineers, biochemists, arent hired without degrees, sucks but its true.

  • Loved the lecture seriously loved it! Good job sir you deserve a medal! What a professional lecture!

  • great lecture. I'm new to physics but I could understand the video

  • is anyone 15 years old here and understanding that?!!
