Course content

1 section11 lectures1h 2m total length
  • Quanta, Observer Reference, and Maxwell versus Newton3:26

    Discover how Einstein reconciles wave and particle views by introducing photons, showing Maxwell and Newton clash, and proving that simultaneity and time depend on the observer's frame of reference.

  • Quanta Lesson Quiz
  • Quantum Fluctuations and Intro to Quantum Mechanics4:15

    Explore quantum mechanics and quantum fluctuations, viewing light as waves and energy packets, and see how measurement disturbance and Planck's constant define the uncertainty in position and velocity.

  • Quiz taken after Session 2
  • Energy quantization, the Atomic Spectra, and Quantum Tunneling4:10

    Explore energy quantization in atoms, how discrete wavelengths yield atomic spectra and quantized photon emission during electronic transitions, and understand quantum tunneling where particles traverse barriers even with insufficient energy.

  • Quiz 3 Atomic Spectra
  • Quantum Leap and Superposition!5:00

    Explore the quantum leap between energy levels and the concept of superposition, where decay and not decay coexist until measurement collapses the wave function.

  • Quiz 4 Quantum Leap and Superposition
  • In-depth Quantum Fluctuations and Thermodynamic Arrow of Time4:20

    Explore quantum fluctuations driving density variations in an expanding universe that seed galaxy formation, and grasp the thermodynamic arrow of time where disorder increases in closed systems.

  • Quiz on Thermodynamic Arrow of Time
  • Quantum Entanglement3:34

    Explore quantum entanglement, where measuring one particle affects its partner across billions of light years, and MIT quasar experiments reveal correlations between photons.

  • Entanglement Quiz
  • Photoelectrons and the Photoelectric Effect5:03

    Compute photon energy with E = h f and show how photons eject electrons in the photoelectric effect, producing a photocurrent in a circuit via a photo electrode.

  • Quiz 7 Photoelectrons and Photoelectric Effect
  • Quantum realm versus General Relativity, and special relativity!5:28

    Explore the quantum realm and general relativity, highlighting how space and time differ and their incompatibility. Understand special relativity with time dilation, length contraction, and the space-time concept.

  • Quiz 8, general relativity and special relativity
  • String Theory and Wormholes6:08

    Explore string theory and wormholes to deepen understanding of quantum gravity and black holes. Discover extra dimensions and vibrating strings, and examine traversable wormholes in the multiverse.

  • Quiz 9 String Theory and Wormholes
  • Quantum Spin and Bohr's model4:01

    Explore quantum spin as intrinsic angular momentum, the Bohr model’s discrete electron orbits, and how Stern-Gerlach experiments reveal spin up and spin down states, energy transitions, and photon emission in neutral atoms.

  • Final Exam Interactive/ Review Session16:41

    Engage in an interactive final review of quantum physics concepts, including wave-particle duality, quantization, entanglement, tunneling, superposition, Schrödinger's cat, and photon energy.

Requirements

  • Nope- this course is just for ambitious learners.

Description

This course will help you gain a greater understanding of the world around us, and will help you prepare for more advanced Quantum Physics courses. We will use a lot of basic analogies to understand a high level topic in a way which anyone can understand.  This course has almost no math, and teaches you important conceptual concepts rather than plugging and solving!

In this course we will go over

  • Quantum mechanics

  • Quantum gravity

  • Heisenberg Uncertainty principle

  • Wave/particle duality

  • Superposition

  • Quantum fluctuations

  • Quantum Leap

  • The Thermodynamic Arrow of Time

  • How to calculate a photon's energy and Photoelectric Effect

  • The concept of Absolute time(Is there such a thing?)/ Frame of Reference

  • Newton versus Maxwell Debate(Einstein's conclusion of an inconsistency)

  • General relativity

  • Quantum Theory and Relativity

  • String Theory and Wormholes!

  • Quantum Spin and Bohr's model

Have you ever wanted to dive into the world of Einstein, and get a greater understanding of Quantum Physics? Have you ever wondered about wormholes and maybe even white holes? Perhaps learn about general relativity?

By the end of this course you will be able to understand the most famous Quantum Physics concepts, and impress your professors and friends with your knowledge. Choose this course if you want to be ahead of the game, and enjoy the magical world of Quantum Physics. Joining this course will inspire you and change the way you think about ordinary things.

Who this course is for:

  • Ambitious hard working students who are ready to dive into the world of Quantum Physics and excel at future Quantum courses!
