Math & Physics Podcast

Today we discuss the topic of rotational motion! It is a very important facet of classical mechanics when you study dynamics. There are countless parallels to translational motion that help us understand the "spinning" so well.   Instagram: @math.physics.podcast Tiktok: @math.physics.podcast Email: math.physics.podcast@gmail.com Twitter: @MathPhysPod   HelloFresh: Link: https://hellofresh-ca.o5kg....

Today we talk with our first reoccurring guest here on the podcast, about particle physics! The building blocks of our universe are especially interesting to humans because they are so mysterious and odd.   Instagram: @math.physics.podcast Tiktok: @math.physics.podcast Email: math.physics.podcast@gmail.com Twitter: @MathPhysPod

Today we have the third installment of our History of Physics series, with Einstein and Bohr. These two physicists were crucial in forming quantum theory at the beginning of the twentieth century. They are both known as two of the most influential scientists of all time!   Instagram: @math.physics.podcast Tiktok: @math.physics.podcast Email: math.physics.podcast@gmail.com Twitter: @MathPhysPod

Today we talk about a very fundamental topic in mathematics: trigonometry. You may remember it as dull and boring, but we are absolutely amazed by the beautiful things you can find within it.   To all our listeners out there, we are so happy to say that you can head over to brilliant.org/mpp, and the first 200 of you to sign up will get 20% off your premium membership.   Instagram: @math.physics.p...

Today we talk with Dr. Miriam Diamdond, our thermal physics professor, about her current field of research... Dark Matter! We have studied dark matter in our classes but there is much much more to learn.

Today we talk about the fascinating properties of lower physical dimensions. The very first math topic that we covered here on the podcast was higher dimensions, and now we continue that discussion, but going the other way. There are great analogies that we can draw from lower dimensions that help us understand the workings of upper dimensions. To all our listeners out there, we are so happy to sa...
