  • This was probably the most useful video i've watched so far from this guy, and thats saying something.

    Its very noticeable the sheer scale of the praise these videos are getting. well deserved

  • omg you are totally saving my butt in physics! my physics teacher does not teach at all, and its hard to learn it by myself! thanks to you i might actually not fail the ap test

see all

  • I'm trying to learn Amateur radio by myself from a textbook. Your videos help so much when I get stuck with things I don't understand. Much thanks! :)

  • It is interesting how we pay thousands of dollars a semester for an "education", but we all come here to learn for free. A majority of my teachers hate their jobs or they are terrible at it. A lot of them teach just to satisfy their egos. When education is free, only those who truly want to teach and better the world would actually teach.

    I think we need to reconsider why we give our colleges and universities so much money.

  • Looking for skrillex :o

  • @menachem700 Further @IBTOJ's reply, at 4.36 he did say "and actaully I'll have to get it moving initially". I had the same question you did and missed him saying it the first time around.

  • @menachem700 When the net force is zero, it just means that there is no acceleration involved. Movement is still possible, it's just that the charge will move at a constant velocity (0 acceleration) while the opposing (with respect to the force of the field) 6N-force is being supplied.

  • what the name of the next video, I have to figure out the moving energy from this formula V=(1/4πɛ0)*Q/r And E = Q*V can somebody help please

  • this is more understandable then, my doctor, but the best of this is, that English is not my native language :)

  • @menachem700 Don't get confused, you are right ! at the beginning we have to push a little more than 6 N and then go back to pushing with the same force ( 6N ). they ignore this because it does not really matter in calculations.

  • I have always had a problem understanding a concept in physics: when you say that you need to push with 6 N to oppose the force of the electric field of 6 N. wouldn't that mean that the object would stay stationary??? why would that move it? they both balance each other out. it's like me and you pushing at the same magnitude in the opposite direction. nothing would happen right???? why would the charge move??? ahhhhhhhhhhhhh

  • What is it about E-statics that is so hard to explain. The concept is so weird I think. I read 3 books on this stuff, but you explained it well., tHANK YOU !1
