Peter Beyersdorf

This is an enhanced audio podcast of Dr. Beyersdorf's Physics 50 lectures at San Jose State University. Episodes are recorded on Monday and Wednesday afternoons during the fall 2008 semester.

  • 1 hour 20 minutes
    Review of Chapters 1-8
    We review midterm #4 as well as chapters 1-8 on vectors, kinematics, projectile motion, Newton's laws, and work and energy

  • 1 hour 14 minutes
    Review of chapters 13-16
    We review oscillation and simple harmonic motion, fluid mechanics, waves and sound.
    4 December 2008, 12:21 am
  • 1 hour 14 minutes
    Doppler Shift and Interference
    We look at wave effects for sound including interference and beat notes and the doppler shift caused by a moving listener or source.
    2 December 2008, 12:40 am
  • 55 minutes 51 seconds
    Sound and Hearing
    We continue to look at mechanical waves, focusing on sound and hearing, specifically the decibel units for sound level.

  • 1 hour 9 minutes
    Mechanical Waves
    We introduce waves by considering solutions to the wave equations for propagation along a string. We introduce the concepts of superposition and standing waves.
    24 November 2008, 11:48 pm
  • 1 hour 16 minutes
    Fluid Dynamics
    We introduce the continuity equation for mass and volume flow rate and the Bernoulli equation for relating pressure, height and speed of fluid.
    20 November 2008, 12:24 am
  • 1 hour 11 minutes
    Hydrostatics
    We introduce density, pressure and the buoyant force and derive Pascal's law for fluids.
    18 November 2008, 12:03 am
  • 1 hour 15 minutes
    Periodic Motion
    We look at parameters of periodic motion. Specifically we investigate simple harmonic motion and the pendulum.

  • 1 hour 15 minutes
    Review of chapters 9-12
    Review of angular motion and equilibrium
    6 November 2008, 12:53 am
  • 1 hour 14 minutes
    Gravitation
    We look at Newton's law of gravitation and introduce the universal gravitational constant. We also discuss escape velocity and black holes.
    4 November 2008, 12:14 am
  • 1 hour 16 minutes
    Friction
    We discuss systems in equilibrium and introduce the frictional force.
