Physical Science

Need the 10 cent version of physical science?

maybe it's been a while
maybe the final is coming up
maybe you forgot how something works
maybe you've never had a physics class and just want to know what it's all about

Whatever brings you here, know that physical science seeks to understand how everything works. Technically it doesn't include everything living, but that life is made possible by the phenomona of physical science. We use mathematics to build models of relationships between different factors. All of our technology and all of the comforts and conveniences of modern life come about because of this understanding of how the universe works. Physics is interesting, and a lot of fun, and will change the way you look at things.

Math Review

We use a good bit of math in physics. Here's some of the stuff you should know before we begin. (26 min)

Kinematics/ Motion

There are a couple simple formulas that explain the relationships between position, velocity, acceleration and time. This study of motion is used in all of physics and in your everyday life. (47 min)
