Review of angular motion and equilibrium

Step into a San Jose State University classroom from the fall of 2008 with Physics 50 Lectures @ SJSU. This series captures the live, unedited lectures delivered by Dr. Peter Beyersdorf, offering a genuine semester-long course experience. You’ll hear the actual explanations, student questions, and chalkboard sounds from those Monday and Wednesday afternoons, covering fundamental principles essential for both science and pre-medical tracks. The audio in this podcast is enhanced to clarify key diagrams and equations discussed during the sessions, making it a valuable resource for anyone seeking to solidify their understanding of core concepts. While it documents a specific academic term, the material explores timeless ideas in physics, presented with a clear and engaging teaching style. Whether you're a student revisiting the basics, a lifelong learner curious about how the physical world works, or an educator interested in lecture methods, this archive provides an authentic auditory window into university-level science education.

Review of Chapters 1-8 [not-audio_url] [/not-audio_url]

Duration: 1:20:08
We review midterm #4 as well as chapters 1-8 on vectors, kinematics, projectile motion, Newton's laws, and work and energy
Review of chapters 13-16 [not-audio_url] [/not-audio_url]

Duration: 1:14:41
We review oscillation and simple harmonic motion, fluid mechanics, waves and sound.
Doppler Shift and Interference [not-audio_url] [/not-audio_url]

Duration: 1:14:00
We look at wave effects for sound including interference and beat notes and the doppler shift caused by a moving listener or source.
Sound and Hearing [not-audio_url] [/not-audio_url]

Duration: 55:51
We continue to look at mechanical waves, focusing on sound and hearing, specifically the decibel units for sound level.
Mechanical Waves [not-audio_url] [/not-audio_url]

Duration: 1:09:25
We introduce waves by considering solutions to the wave equations for propagation along a string. We introduce the concepts of superposition and standing waves.
Fluid Dynamics [not-audio_url] [/not-audio_url]

Duration: 1:16:13
We introduce the continuity equation for mass and volume flow rate and the Bernoulli equation for relating pressure, height and speed of fluid.
Hydrostatics [not-audio_url] [/not-audio_url]

Duration: 1:11:15
We introduce density, pressure and the buoyant force and derive Pascal's law for fluids.
Periodic Motion [not-audio_url] [/not-audio_url]

Duration: 1:15:31
We look at parameters of periodic motion. Specifically we investigate simple harmonic motion and the pendulum.
Gravitation [not-audio_url] [/not-audio_url]

Duration: 1:14:22
We look at Newton's law of gravitation and introduce the universal gravitational constant. We also discuss escape velocity and black holes.
Friction [not-audio_url] [/not-audio_url]

Duration: 1:16:57
We discuss systems in equilibrium and introduce the frictional force.
