6 modules · 22 lessons
The Language of Physics — Units, Measurement & Thinking Like a Scientist
Before diving into laws and equations, you need the toolkit physicists use to describe the world precisely. This module builds confidence with units, estimation, and the art of turning a messy real-world question into something you can actually calculate.
- 1.1Why Physics? The Big PictureIncluded
- 1.2Units, Dimensions & the Metric SystemIncluded
- 1.3Estimation & Order-of-Magnitude ThinkingComing soon
Motion — Kinematics & Newton's Laws
Motion is the heartbeat of physics. This module covers how to describe it precisely (kinematics) and why objects move the way they do (Newton's laws). By the end, you'll be able to analyze a car crash, a thrown ball, or a rocket launch.
- 2.1Describing Motion: Position, Velocity & AccelerationComing soon
- 2.2Newton's Three Laws in the Real WorldComing soon
- 2.3Projectile Motion & GravityComing soon
- 2.4Friction, Normal Force & Free-Body DiagramsComing soon
Energy, Work & Momentum
Energy and momentum are the universe's two great bookkeeping systems — they're conserved no matter what. This module shows you how to use conservation laws to solve problems that would be nearly impossible with Newton's laws alone.
- 3.1Work & Kinetic EnergyComing soon
- 3.2Potential Energy & Conservation of EnergyComing soon
- 3.3Momentum & CollisionsComing soon
Waves & Sound
Waves carry energy without carrying matter — a mind-bending idea that explains music, earthquakes, medical imaging, and wifi. This module builds a complete picture of wave behavior from scratch.
- 4.1Wave Properties: Amplitude, Frequency & WavelengthComing soon
- 4.2Sound: Pressure Waves & the Decibel ScaleComing soon
- 4.3Resonance, Standing Waves & MusicComing soon
- 4.4The Doppler Effect & Real-World ApplicationsComing soon
Electricity & Magnetism
Two forces that turned out to be one. This module covers electric charge, circuits, magnetic fields, and electromagnetic induction — the physics behind every electronic device you own.
- 5.1Electric Charge, Fields & Coulomb's LawComing soon
- 5.2Circuits: Voltage, Current & ResistanceComing soon
- 5.3Magnetism & ElectromagnetismComing soon
- 5.4Electromagnetic Induction & How Generators WorkComing soon
Thermodynamics & a Glimpse of Modern Physics
Heat is disorganized energy, and the universe relentlessly moves toward disorder. This final module covers thermodynamics — including why perpetual motion is impossible — and closes with an exciting preview of quantum mechanics and relativity.
- 6.1Temperature, Heat & Thermal EnergyComing soon
- 6.2The Laws of ThermodynamicsComing soon
- 6.3A Taste of Quantum MechanicsComing soon
- 6.4Special Relativity: When Speed Gets ExtremeComing soon

Peter
Hi, I'm so glad you're here. I've spent years teaching physics to students who were convinced they "just weren't math people" — and watching that belief dissolve is my favorite thing in the world. Physics gave me a superpower: I can walk into any situation — a traffic jam, a thunderstorm, a kitchen — and understand why things are happening the way they are. This course is my attempt to hand that superpower to you. I've stripped away the jargon, kept the rigor, and replaced intimidation with genuine wonder. Let's figure out how the universe works, together.
