Using a Data Table to Make Vector Addition Problems Easier

3/28/2014

0 Comments

 
Picture
Today we reexamine the problem in yesterday’s video and show a way to use a data table to make solving vector addition problems easier.  However, if you don’t understand how to do vector addition in the first place, the data table doesn’t really make sense, which is why we had yesterday’s video first.

Introductory Vector Addition Problem using Component Vectors

3/27/2014

Now we combine the concepts of tip-to-tail vector addition, component vectors and cardinal directions in to a simple, introductory problem.

Rather than my deciding for my future 4T2014 webinar attendees what they would like to learn about, I am giving everyone an opportunity to give input into the design of the webinar, before it occurs.  Please take me up on my offer.

I get a lot of questions about what technology I use to create Flipping Physics .  Here is the answer.

Component Vectors!

A key part of working with vectors is being able to break or resolve vectors in to components. So today we will learn how to do so.

(As always, every “like” is appreciated. 😊)

How to use Cardinal Directions with Vectors

Many students struggle with understanding Cardinal Directions.  So this is a very basic video describing how to use cardinal directions with vectors. (All “likes” are much appreciated. 😊)

More about “Likes" and “Dislikes"

3/11/2014

One week ago today I posted about an unusual occurrence of “dislikes” on my YouTube Flipping Physics channel.  Y’all responded with a whopping 185 “likes" in one day, which was awesome.  However, something very strange also occurred that day; I received 26 “dislikes”.  The strangeness is because (a) they were on 26 different videos, (b) they were from 11 different countries and (c) 8 of the countries from which I received a “dislike” actually never viewed any Flipping Physics videos. (Japan, Romania, Thailand, Panama, Mexico, Uzbekistan, Spain and Russia)  How could this occur?  I have two theories.

  1. There is a vindictive soul out there who is spoofing his location (which I have learned isn’t all that difficult) and purposefully “dislike”ing my videos, even though he is clicking through so quickly that the videos don’t even have time to start.
  2. There exists a parallel charge, parity and time reversed universe where positive is negative, left is right, up is down, forward is backward and like is dislike.  One of my Flipping Physics Fans is unfortunately stuck in this universe and every time she “likes” a video, as it crosses the Einstein Rosen Bridge it gets flipped to a “dislike”.


Personally I am betting on option #2; makes me feel better.

Thanks much for all your help and “likes”, I very much doubt that there will be more posts from me lamenting the state of my likes/dislikes.  And if the vindictive soul exists, I hope the wormhole closes and you get stuck where your heart is on the wrong side of your body.

p.s. A charge, parity and time reversed universe or CPT-reversed universe is allowed according to the current laws of physics.  The only problem is that we can't communicate with people living there because our future is their past; bummer.

Introductory Tip-to-Tail Vector Addition Problem

3/7/2014

Picture
Continuing our learning about the basics of Tip-to-Tail vector addition, today we get to do a problem that I talked about every year, however, I never actually showed.  I think it works really well to show the two vectors independently and then together in the form of the car, paper and car on the paper.  It’s really cool to see how it all fits together.

    Yep, I make physics videos in the hope that you can learn physics.  If you are a physics teacher, I am very hopeful that you will want to use them to help flip your physics class.
