Course Description

Overview

Explore the fundamental principles of classical physics in this comprehensive video series. Delve into topics ranging from scalars and vectors to kinematics, dynamics, and Newton's laws of motion. Learn about work, energy, momentum, and collisions, as well as circular motion and gravitation. Investigate fluids, thermodynamics, wave mechanics, and optics. Conclude with an introduction to electricity and magnetism. Gain a solid foundation in the mother of all sciences, covering everything from atoms to galaxies, and discover how physics explains the forces, motion, and energy that govern our universe.
