Physics - A Course on Gravitation from Beginner to Advanced.
What you'll learn
- Understand the basic elements of physics and their foundation in calculus
- Practice mathematical calculations with large numbers
- Develop an understand for the laws of physics through examples of their application in the world of nature and technology
- Differentiate and derive units
Requirements

Description
This course in physics explains gravitational interactions. In these lessons, you will learn everything about the law of universal gravitation, its relationship with the laws of dynamics, the Third Law of Kepler, and you will understand why gravitational forces are the weakest that exist in our natural world. This course includes the derivation of all formulas with step-by-step unit conversions and values. Each topic is explained using detailed examples with helpful animations.
Who this course is for:
- Any student enrolled in a high school physics course
- Anyone wishing to further their knowledge of physics

Kasia's interest in physics began in primary school with the sudden realization that literally everything around her was influenced by invisible forces at work. The fact that gravity changes depending on where you are on the planet and that mankind has been able to prove this was immediately fascinating! She wanted to learn how this was proven! "How many other unknown laws are in action around me at this very moment?!"
Thanks to good teachers along the way, Kasia held on to that spark as she progressed through her education and eventually became a physics teacher herself. Kasia's goal is to bring the theories and principals of physics to life by using examples that are easy to relate to and inherently interesting. Through methods that were successful in her own classroom, you will improve your understanding of physics with fun videos including simple easy-to-follow graphics and detailed explanations. After all, it is so much easier to learn something when you enjoy it!
