Why is there always an intellectual battle in the comments of physics/math lectures? For one, these are not physics students, these are people who in their free time want to learn more about science without the rigorous math background. Two, if you are making fun of people for asking a lot of questions, you're a joke. Finally, if you really claim people are wannabes because they came here from interstellar or something get off your high horse. You're not a hipster because you knew about relativity and time dilation before interstellar came out. DO enjoy science, be happy others can enjoy science, and if you really are good at it, then HELP other enjoy science. DO NOT belittle others in a way to make yourself feel better, because guess what, you're watching this on youtube and I bet you're not formally educated on these things in any way. If you were you would see how insanely smart some of these kids are, and would respect that everyone is good in very different ways.

Only people who in fact aren't formally educated in physics come here to feel better about themselves . Why ? It's quite simple it makes them believe that there more educated it that department than they actually are , so they feel smarter . The reality is that without a rigorous background in mathematics , all those things only lead to superficial knowledge , that isn't of any use . Here you will also see students , who have the "horrendous" desire of wanting to make a revision or listen to how another professor explains it , who dare they ? And most importantly who dare they criticize ?

Dimitri I'm formally educated in physics and I come here. So, how does that work. Also that must mean you think the people who are attending this course are in the same spot? Get over yourself man, you can learn a LOT about physics with no math. Will you understand it to the level that someone who sees where these equations were derived from? No, but you can get a large percentage of the understanding without that, and thats what a lot of people want. If you want those few final percentage points of understanding, great, get formally educated. Thats what I want too, but DONT shit on the people who enjoy this as a passive hobby.

Try this don’t think of math as calculations rather as a language watch him explain each variables/letters and what they mean in the equation he’s writing anything you can’t connect like an example would be What is M or a Or F or let’s say for instance Vector. Google it find out it’s meaning ok Vector in physics, a quantity that has both magnitude and direction. ... It is typically represented by an arrow whose direction is the same as that of the quantity and whose length is proportional to the quantity's magnitude. Now that you know the meaning you should be able to connect each equations, laws what so ever in a more simple way. Honestly I’m not completely sure if I make any sense in what I’m saying but for me I understand on some level what he’s explaining and I’m just a 24 year old Mechanic with a High school diploma but a man can dream of being an Astrophysicist.

@@Hey.bekind777y If gravity is an unproven theory, then what keeps us in orbit with the sun? what keeps our arm in the milky way from separating from the galaxy itself? how would you personally describe entropy? Also, with the pyramids of Giza, that's only a bizarre (and very obvious, upon inspection) coincidence that arises from the speed of light being measured in SI units, meters per second. The speed of light used as a coordinate (only the north coordinate, 29.972°N) can correspond with the pyramids, but it can also correspond with anything on that coordinate line (think of it as like a ring around the Earth where you can place the coordinate). We could also choose the coordinate to represent the spend of light to be 2.99792°N (which would closer to the scientific way of writing the speed of light). We could also change the speed of light to natural units, in which case its respective coordinate would only be 1°N. We could switch the speed of light into feet per second or inches per second and get different results too for the respective coordinate. I hope this helps you see why that particular conspiracy theory is incorrect. If you have any questions about this feel free to ask :)

Thank you for posting this! It is wonderful to see a noted professor working!

Professor Susskind is so wonderfully patient. What a great teacher.

1:14 'let's keep it simple', my favourite part.

The best lecture that I have ever encountered. While watching, I had all the questions that were to be answered in next minutes.

This lecture series is fantastic. When I took physics, general relativity was a side topic, quantum theory was the main event. Over the years, I've dug through references like Dirac, the huge Misner, Thorne, and Wheeler, others. Each one brings some new illumination. And this lecture series, starting from the most basic constant field of acceleration, has brought out some fundamental principles that I never before realized...just basic, like why a vector field derivative may not be the same in all coordinate systems. (Because the coordinate transformations themselves yield non-zero derivatives, which need to be removed using the Christoffel terms). Once I finish this set, I'm definitely up for others. Thanks Stanford.

This is so clear. I understand the Gaussian theorem and Newtonian gravitational theory much deeper. I also understand what is divergence is and how it is applied to gravity.

Grades don't much if anything to do with intelligence and the people at a private school like Stanford aren't necessarily smarter than people at a CSU. And in fact, the pain and theft inflicted and unleashed upon us after hundreds of years of Yale and Harvard grads suggests that you definitely shouldn't idolize these private school grads, in fact you should be skeptical

The professor has a really nice approach to creating logical conclusions. You can follow through with whatever he says and make sense of what the nature of gravity actually is.

I just want to say thank you for making this publicly available. It is a sheer joy to be able to follow the lecture. Thank you!

Thank you Stanford and Susskind!

This is incredible. Thank you for posting this. Leonard is a great teacher.

I am really looking forward to coming. Thanks!

The question around the 45:45 mark is related to the delta of R squared. As the radial demension shortens the attraction force increases and if the Delta of R squared increases the attraction force decreases.

What an incredible teacher! Looking forward to watching the other videos now. Very well explained.

great professor Leonard susskind

Grateful for these lecture uploads, thank you very much.

Good lecture, descriptions were detailed and informative.

I love seeing that a video such as this has 3.5 million views.

Susskind is a brilliant lecturer. He takes the time with the basics to get the underpinning concepts and philosophy right. If you skip over these things then the advanced stuff will leave you behind.

I just found this and absolutely love it!

Great lesson! Keep up the smart and good effort!

"I'm loosely held together." Best prof. EVER!

8:00 I used to think that the first law was redundant or implied by the second, but it is actually a necessary statement to make clear that accelerations can only come from forces. i.e. you can't have a non-zero acceleration if the net force is zero. The second law alone doesn't account for that.

I don't regret my life I had responsibilities and choices to me but I'm so glad that I live in an age where I can enjoy the benefit of listening to lectures by Leonard suskin for free whenever I want I can sit around for hours and just listen to the lectures of sir Roger Penrose for free I don't get accreditation for it but I don't care I love science it will never be my life that will be my passion and I am blessed Beyond reason to live at the Pinnacle of the age or this information freely accessible to anyone who wants to go learn it you won't get credit for it but you can learn it think more people would be grateful for how wonderful our time is

Dr Susskind's Theoretical minimum series is excellent although I don't yet have the math skills to absorb it all. but going to school this fall so will be learning the math.

Response videos came and went like a fad, but for once if LS could only stop pacing the floor needlessly, that would help a lot.

Whenever I go to study my note I always watch videos like this to motivate me, something about the way they explain it intrigues me and makes me eager to study/learn.

How funny that you have such a relatable professor that simplifies everything, but every student in the room is attempting to display intellectual dominance with big words and their own fun facts.

Thanks for inviting me!

Listening to such long series of lectures is in fact the shortest and most simple way of getting a concept instead of the SIMPLIFIED kind of videos.

Wow...what a superb presentation...I love his precision and how he presents the Galilean and Newtonian theories of gravity in a way that makes general relativity much more accessible. I think he has tried to follow Einstein's own thinking.

Tried and failed Einstine to many speacies for.chance.is not.giberish.

Professor Suskind’s style is so appealingly unpretentious, like he thinks he’s teaching high school, high school summer school at that. “I get paid to explain this, your job is to listen.” He exudes the New York no-nonsense demeanor.

3:33 The actual equation was change in momentum, written as a differential it would be F = dp/dt. dp = d(mv), so F = d(mv)/dt, F = vdm/dt + mdv/dt. The first term comes into play with rockets which eject mass as they accelerate. For masses that are being pushed around the second term is what we are interested in, F = mdv/dt, a = dv/dt so we end up with F = ma.

35:20: “Where is my gravitational force? I lost it. Ah, here it is.”

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

17:40 I’m confused I think, what happens if you throw a ball up while your free falling in a gravitational field. Won’t the ball go up and gradually stop a certain distance from you. Where as if you not in a gravitational field and floating in space the ball will continue to go up infinitely. Any clarification would be great, thanks.

What a great lecture! Thank you professor!

Amazing how the Professor can explain what it is like to step off a building and experience free falling?!.....a base jumping academic, respect!!

Though hardly a good physicist, I think I know one when I see him. Leonard Susskind is one, more so because he thoughtfully guides us in the communicative footsteps of Benjamin Franklin. Consider this great Franklin quote: If he would inform, he must advance regularly from Things known to things unknown, distinctly without Confusion, and the lower he begins the better. It is a common Fault in Writers, to allow their Readers too much knowledge: They begin with that which should be the Middle, and skipping backwards and forwards, ’tis impossible for any one but he who is perfect in the Subject before, to understand their Work, and such an one has no Occasion to read it. -Benjamin Franklin No wonder so many of us are sparked here by Leonard Susskind's teaching. What a clear, brilliant lecture.

If I ever, ever manage to make enough money to go to Stanford, I want him.as my lecturer. Most physics lecturers drone on and sound bored, but he's obviously passionate about it and makes it interesting. I don't really understand much of this, I need to do some basic physics again and catch up (I'm actually doing Law, but interested in physics and computer science). I was born in a great time, time where there is actually an effort for Open education, education that you can spend your own time and effort on, and because of that, you'll do better (I assume) because it's not being forced down your throat. Thanks to OCW projects I don't think I'll ever quit learning.
