Arapahoe High School Physics Podcasts

Jeff Smith

Podcasts created to aid all levels of Mr. Jeff Smith's physics classes at Arapahoe High School, including content appropriate for Intro Physics, AP Physics B, and AP Physics C students. Since some content applies to all of those levels, and some might be more specific for a particular type of class, the podcast titles all indicate for which level(s) the podcast is intended.

  • Definite Integrals (Level: APC)
    This podcast explains how to evaluate definite integrals at given limits of integration, and how this idea relates to finding the area under the curve when a function is graphed.
    20 May 2013, 5:47 pm
  • Indefinite Integrals (Level: APC)
    This podcast introduces integrals with the idea "un-doing" a derivative, and then works several examples based on the reverse of the power rule.
    20 May 2013, 5:39 pm
  • Derivatives and Max/Min (Level: APC)
    This podcast explains how to apply your understanding of derivatives to the problem of finding the maximum or minimum value of a function.
    20 May 2013, 5:24 pm
  • Chain Rule and Product Rule (Level: APC)
    This podcast introduces how to perform derivatives for some more complicated functions, specifically how to use the chain rule for derivatives of composite functions, and how to use the product rule for the derivative of the product of two functions.
    20 May 2013, 3:59 pm
  • Other Common Derivatives (Level: APC)
    This podcast introduces common derivatives that can't be performed with the power rule, such as derivatives of some trigonometric, exponential, and logarithmic functions.
    20 May 2013, 3:48 pm
  • Derivatives and Power Rule (Level: APC)
    This podcast introduces the concept of derivatives, at a depth appropriate for students beginning a calculus-based physics course. This includes a brief description of what a derivative means, and how to find derivatives using the power rule.
    20 May 2013, 3:26 pm
  • Waves on Strings (Levels: Intro, APB)
    This podcast explains standing waves on strings, including an explanation for how to calculate which frequencies of vibration will 'work' to cause a certain string to resonate at all of its different harmonic frequencies.

    17 November 2012, 12:00 am
  • Static Equilibrium (Levels: Intro, APB, APC)
    This podcast introduces the idea of static equilibrium, once students are already familiar with torque concepts.

    16 November 2012, 4:14 pm
  • Intro to Sound Waves (Levels: Intro, APB)
    This podcast describes several sound wave properties, and introduces the sound wave phenomena of Doppler Effect and Beat Frequency. Simple calculations are also briefly discussed.

    16 November 2012, 3:11 pm
  • Forces During Rolling (Level: APC)
    This podcast explains how to examine forces and torques while an object is rolling.

    15 November 2012, 8:35 pm
  • Torque & Newton's 2nd Law for Rotation (Level: APC)
    This podcast explains what torque is, and how to calculate it.  Newton's 2nd Law is also revisited, from a rotational perspective.
