Radioactivity and Its Types

video lesson SS3 · Physics · 15:38

This lesson covers the definition of radioactivity and the characteristics of radioactive elements. It explains the three types of radiation: alpha particles, beta particles, and gamma rays, along with their properties. The lesson also includes the concept of half-life and decay constants.

  • 12:30 “remain. So that means it will take 30 years to lose 7 over 8 of these original atoms. Because if you subtract, we said n is the original atom. So if you subtract n over 8 from n, it will give you 7 n over 8. So that mean...”

Particulate Nature of Matter

video lesson SS1 · Chemistry · 29:28

The lesson covers the distinction between physical and chemical changes, including examples. It explains the difference between atoms and molecules, describes the arrangement of particles in an atom, and defines atomic number, mass number, and isotopes. The calculation of relative atomic masses of a

Work, Energy and Power

video lesson SS1 · Physics · 26:30

This lesson covers the definitions of work, energy, and power. It includes calculations for work done, gravitational potential energy, and power in watts. The lesson also distinguishes between kinetic and potential energy and explains energy transformation and the law of conservation of energy.

  • 11:20 “This energy emanates from the changes in the nucleus of an atom or from nuclear reactions. Take, for example, bombing. We'll talk about bomb fusion or fusion. It is common knowledge that, when there is war, there's alway...”
