I'm just curious as to if there are any physics audio tapes (CDs, mp3s, cassette, or whatever else) out there. It takes me about an hour to drive to work & then back. Just seems such a waste to not use that time :smile:. These could be lectures, learning, etc. that would be prefably intro to mid level physics. So anyone have any good ideas? I tried searching the web, but there is so much junk to search through :-p. Thanks in advance for your time.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
You could try the math and science tutorial section, or the links here at PF. I don't know if there would be any audio tutorials.

You might want to check out your community or university library. Also, try asking local bookstores if they carry such products.

Amazon has The Feynman Lectures
 
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanged mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
