The video resource "Nuclear Physics: Crash Course Physics #45" is included in the "Statistics" course from the resources series of "Crash Course". Crash Course is a educational video series from John and Hank Green.
Mr. Andersen contrasts nuclear reactions to chemical reactions. He explains the four main forces of nature; including gravity, electromagnetism, strong, and weak nuclear forces. He also explains how fusion differs from fission.
Paul Andersen explains how the nucleon number and charge is conserved in all nuclear reactions and radioactive decay. Fission, fusion, alpha decay, beta decay, and gamma decay all conserve the number of neutrons and protons, as well as charge.

The video resource "The Nucleus: Crash Course Chemistry #1" is included in the "Chemistry" course from the resources series of "Crash Course". Crash Course is a educational video series from John and Hank Green.
The purpose of this video tutorial is to review a couple ways in which we think about numbers. Thinking in terms of street numbers, money in bank accounts, and quantum particles (e.g. Bose-Einstein condensate) is contrasted with focusing on associating numbers with distinguishable manipulatives, as is more familiar in K-8 courses. This video concludes with a reminder that the symbol "infinity" is not, itself, a number.
This book is an introduction to climate science for undergraduate students of both science and non-science majors and for everybody interested in the topic. It is quantitative and uses many graphs and numbers, but only a minimum amount of math is required.
In this expanded new edition of Living with Earthquakes, Robert Yeats, a leading authority on earthquakes in California and the Pacific Northwest, describes the threat posed by the Cascadia Subduction Zone, a great earthquake fault which runs for hundreds of miles offshore from British Columbia to northern California. New research reveals subtle movements on the deepest part of this fault every 14-15 months - building up strain toward the next major earthquake.

Paul Andersen explains how object interactions can add or remove mass or energy from a system.
In this video Paul Andersen explains how a system can be viewed as an object and an object can be viewed as a system.
In this video Paul Andersen explains the differences between a system and an object. Depending on the scale it often times easies to view a system as an object if the constituent parts aren't relevant to the question being asked.
Part 2 of offshore hydromechanics (OE4630) involves the linear theory of calculating 1st order motions of floating structures in waves and all relevant subjects such as the concept of RAOs, response spectra and downtime/workability analysis.
Offshore Hydromechanics includes the following modules:1. Hydrostatics, static floating stability, constant 2-D potential flow of ideal fluids, and flows in real fluids. Introduction to resistance and propulsion of ships. Review of linear regular and irregular wave theory. 2. Analytical and numerical means to determine the flow around, forces on, and motions of floating bodies in waves. 3. Higher order potential theory and inclusion of non-linear effects in ship motions. Applications to motion of moored ships and to the determination of workability. 4. Interaction between the sea and sea bottom as well as the hydrodynamic forces and especially survival loads on slender structures.
In this extension to the Ohm's Law I activity, students observe just how much time it takes to use up the "juice" in a battery, and if it is better to use batteries in series or parallel. This extension is suitable as a teacher demonstration and may be started before students begin work on the Ohm's Law I activity.
Students work to increase the intensity of a light bulb by testing batteries in series and parallel circuits. They learn about Ohm's law, power, parallel and series circuits, and ways to measure voltage and current.
Olympicene is a gimmicky but clever molecule based on a famous set of rings - yet they are not linked!!!
The video resource "The Oort Cloud: Crash Course Astronomy #22" is included in the "Astronomy" course from the resources series of "Crash Course". Crash Course is a educational video series from John and Hank Green.
This course covers the major topics of mechanics including momentum and energy conservation, kinematics, Newton's laws and equilibrium. The major emphasis is to develop critical analysis, problem solving and scientific reasoning skills by considering numerous different systems and interactions, solving problems and discussion. We will use a systematic approach based on modeling systems by application of basic physics principles, making assumptions, utilizing multiple representations (not just mathematical) in order to become proficient at problem solving. Lab work is required and is designed to help you develop a questioning approach to physical situations, distinguishing the significant behaviors from the less significant behaviors of a system under study.
