roaringrockets Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - Notice how few students there are attending this class, even with a great teacher and spectacular demonstrations. Students will hate physics no matter who teaches it and how it is taught... because to learn physics (or anything else useful and important) takes tremendous effort on the part of the student.

Jul 26, 2008 - if you are in that class you have to be good at physics and ,,,,,

Jul 26, 2008 - I had a university physics prof who, for the entire 50 minutes, stood at an overhead projector and wrote stuff with a marker on transparent paper, everyday, 3 days a week for 4 months. yeah...

Jul 26, 2008 - A great lecturer "Physics works I'm telling you!"A 7th Grade weakling, leans casually against a suspended 25 ton "Genuine Wrecker Ball" It's hung from a big brute steel girder. He notices a slight oscillation, and starts to push this wrecker into motion. soon the ball is swinging 50 feet with just a light shove from the weakling. Every swing, the steel girder flexes under the strain! stress causes HEAT!! Weaklings can flex a Steel Girder!?! D.A.M.T.P. Cambridge. GET-REAL!NO BULL SHIT PLEASE!
WarzSchoolchild Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - I regret to inform viewers of these M.I.T. Classical Mechanics Lectures, that there are very profound errors with the unproven and only 'Axiomatic' "Conservation of Energy Laws!?!) An axiom can never be elevated to the status of a Physical Law! It is outrageous to do so! The Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Phisics eagerly await news of the 'Higgs' the particle thought to underpin 'Inertia' Till then, I hope Prof. Walter will correct this arrant nonsense! Conservation baloney!

Jul 26, 2008 - Physics Works!!
enounce Says:
Jul 26, 2008 - Watch physics work faster! Need to watch a lot of lecture videos, see the Enounce channel for a demo of this video at 70% faster than normal speed. You can still understand everything!

Jul 26, 2008 - now THATs a physics professor ...man when i was just abt to lose all my enthusiasms from physics he just reminded me that physics was the most favorite course of mine in highskool ...n now i m disparately looking for professor like him in college to take my engineering courses with ...
