Principles of Physics. Mechanics and Light
Description
Conveniently structured in short clip format, this program uses animations, live footage, and examples of relevant formulas to present key concepts about mechanics and light. The mechanics section covers scalars and vectors, equations of motions, projectile and circular motions, Newton's laws of motion, kinetic and potential energies, energy conservation, collisions, and conservation of momentum. The light section covers wave-particle duality, wave equation, combining light of different colors, reflection in plane and curved mirrors, refraction, convex and concave lenses, polarization, diffraction, interference, and the photoelectric effect.
