Science is a fun subject by itself. The problem usually lies in how it is communicated. If the teacher inundates the students with equations without relating how it is applied in the real world, the lesson tends to get lost and you have a room full of disinterested people asking “why do I need to learn y=mx + b? How will it help me pay my bills?”

You’re right! Sometimes we use both words synonymously, but the correct way to calculate the centripetal acceleration is using speed, so distance over time. Good catch!

9.81 m/s² is what most countries always use. Don’t know anywhere that rounds it to 10!

@Paul Kerton oh really? i just found it out. in Indonesia we use both 9,81 and 10 m/s², most students like using 10 because we calculate manually 😂

Is this video purposely to confuse viewers, or just to impress viewers that you’re a PhD student at Yale, for even mathematical physicists admit that to truly communicate clearly any {in this case, obtuse intricate dynamic} aspect of physics, one ‘lεαvεs oυt’ αll mαthεmαticαl formυlαs.’ 0therωisε a “very” interesting presentation. 👍

Has the popularity of gymanstics in the US been affected by the increase in competition in the last 10 years or so? Before the 2010s the US was dominant to a ridiculous degree but now they find GB, Japan, China and Russia have stepped their games up, is it affecting the viewing figures?
