Is not telling you how beautiful the world is. Im gonna be telling you what to look for. And when you look for things, youll see that, hey, thats a beauty, that you wouldve wouldnt have noticed otherwise. So were talking things like that. And then were gonna talk a little bit about Nuclear Physics fission, fusion, radioactivity. What do you suppose makes the earth hot . Volcanoes. Wheres all that heat coming from . Would you believe its Nuclear Power . Nuclear power under the ground . Would you believe its radioactive decay . You know, if this were a piece of uranium, this piece of uranium will be a little bit warmer than anything else in the room. You know why . Its shooting out these little particles all the time, heating it up. And if i make it very, very enriched with uranium, its gonna be hotter, hotter, hotter. And guess what we get about from the bottom of the world. So people that are afraid of radioactivity and Nuclear Power think its something new that the human race has just
Hi, im paul hewitt, the author of conceptual physics. You know, physics is a study of nature. The way things connect to one another. And these connections are underlined by the concepts, concepts which are beautifully expressed mathematically. But the focus of conceptual physics will be the beauty of these concepts in english. The equations of physics will be seen as guides to thinking, much more than recipes for numerical problem solving. So the idea is the comprehension of concepts first and then computations later. Ideally, in the laboratory where theyre really meaningful. This tape youre looking at right now is the first. Its the intro of a series of more than 30 tapes. And this is a long step from where i started video one of one my classes. Thats like back in 1974. Lets take a look at my class as it looked like in 1974. Enjoy. Matt, you wanna come here and try this . Could i have one other volunteer, please, to pick up the anvil and put it on my headchest . [laughter] right here.
