Professor Dave Explains

We know how to record fingerprints, but how do we analyze them? Two important techniques will be ridge counting and ridge tracing. How does that work? Let's find out!

Did you know that if you throw a rock in space, whatever velocity it has at the moment that it leaves your hand, it will continue moving with that velocity indefinitely? That's Newton's first law. It applies to objects on earth as well, it's just that earth's atmosphere complicates matters. Get the full breakdown here!

Bret Weinstein and Tucker Carlson both suck a lot, clearly. So what happens when they get together? Does the suckiness compound exponentially? It does, in fact. From Tucker continuing to fumble 9th grade biology principles while Bret does absolutely nothing to set him straight, to vomiting up super racist toddler takes on the Middle East, let's point and laugh at these douchebags together, so we can feel like the world isn't going up in flames for an hour.

After a number of tutorials covering first-order differential equations, it's time to start tackling second-order differential equations. These contain a second derivative term, and they are quite useful in physics. To introduce these, let's first examine the simplest case, a linear homogenous second-order differential equation that exhibits constant coefficients. To solve these we will need to find a characteristic equation and do some algebra, a process which will vary depending on whether we are dealing with real distinct roots, complex roots, or a repeated root. Let's take a look!

To substantiate the Standard Model of Particle Physics, we look for certain kinds of particle interactions and other events, including particle decay. Why do decay events produce the kinds of particles they produce, and why do particles decay at all? It's a complicated question, but let's talk about it!

What's a force? No, not THE force. That's from Star Wars. I'm talking about the forces in the universe that make things move. Yes, I know Yoda moved the X-Wing with The Force. Will you quit it? We are talking about the real universe here. Fine, I guess it could be the same universe as ours, but why are there humans that speak English in a galaxy far, far away? Alright fine, go watch a Star War first and then come back to me when you want to learn some real physics.

Continuing through phylum Chordata, we arrive at class Amphibia, the first of the tetrapods. How did they evolve, and what do they look like today? Most people know about frogs and salamanders, but what about caecilians and other strange creatures? Let's take a look!

Did you know that everything is moving? Even you, as you're sitting perfectly still, because the earth is moving, and the sun, and the galaxy, and so forth. For this reason, it only makes sense to talk about the motion of some object relative to some other object, just as Galileo told us. Watch this and see what I mean!

Back to grammar! Let's learn the personal pronouns in Latin. These are words like I, me, you, and so forth. These are always implied by the form of the verb being used, but they can still be used for emphasis.

We know about functions where exponents are raised to different variables, to produce quadratics, cubics, quartics, and so forth. But what about when the variable itself is an exponent? This is called an exponential function, and they are important for modeling things like population growth and other real-world scenarios. Let's learn about them!
