Continuous Bodies in Physics: From Point-like to Continuous Summary: This class studies continuous bodies in physics. It starts with point-like objects but shows how Newtonian mechanics explains that objects formed by many particles can simulate the continuity of nature. It reviews Newton's laws to understand motion and causes in particles....
Thermodynamic Limit, Pressure, and Extensive and Intensive Variables Summary: This class introduces the concept of the Thermodynamic Limit to explain how some physical systems are treated statistically. An analogy of particles colliding with a wall is used, where pressure is defined as the total force per unit area. By considering...
The Pressure of Fluids Summary: This class will focus on the concept of fluid pressure at rest and how it varies with depth. We will learn that the pressure at a point within a fluid directly depends on its density, gravity, and depth. Learning Objectives: By the end of the...
Pascal's Principle Summary: In this class, Pascal's Principle will be explained, which states that pressure applied to an incompressible fluid is distributed uniformly. We will see its consequences, such as the constant level in containers and the relationship between displaced volumes. Additionally, we will show applications in hydraulic machines and...
Buoyancy and Archimedes' Principle Summary: This lesson will explain the phenomenon of Buoyancy and Archimedes' Principle, showing how submerged objects in a fluid experience an upward force equal to the weight of the displaced fluid. This principle is used to calculate the portion of an object that emerges above the...
