    Excellent presentation. So many paid educaters make a complete dogs dinner of explaining this! I wish you could write a whole course with problems and answers on physics. It would come to thousands of pages but it would be worth it, as no total self learning course has ever been wriiten.

    Thanks, Step by Step Science, for this video. Quick question regarding Watts: Do you know of a conversion formula to convert kilometers/hour to watts in the context of stationary bicycling?
    I'm an exercise physiologist who exercises patients on a stationary bike that only provides km/h & RPMs as any numerical values to quantify the amount of work they are doing. It has a tension knob for the fly wheel but there is no number value/gauge that's provided for that tension knob. I'm seeking a way to convert the speed (i.e. km/h) into a power unit (i.e. watts) in order to convert it into metabolic units (the unit of workload intensity that we use). Thanks in advance for any information that you may be able to provide!

    Okay, so I have a gas cooker and I have an electric table top cooker (ovens), so what I want to understand is, if I put some product into the gas cooker to cook for say half an hour, and I go to my gas meter and check the reading, and it says I've used 2 units of gas, how can I compare that with cooking the same product in an electric cooker? The point being, how do I work out if a gas cooker is cheaper than an electric cooker? The maths (why do Americans insist upon Math and who started it?) is beyond me, numbers, formulae just don't register in my grey matter (sorry). I do understand that there's a calorific value for gas - natural gas in my case, but I can't see how to equate the two cookers.. or supplies perhaps is better?

    • @stepbystepscience
      @stepbystepscience  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Watt is the unit for power and power is the rate at which work is done. A 40 watt light bulb converts 40 joules of electric energy to light and heat every second.

    Actually, when you're moving upward at 1 m/s², you're acceleration actually 10.81 m/s², because your acceleration will be 1 m/s² greater than the force of gravity already is, so you have to add the acceleration upwards (1 m/s²) to the acceleration which gravity applies (9.81 m/s²) to create the force of gravity, making your acceleration 10.81 m/s². Now, to derive the weight at which a movement upward of 1 meter over 1 second equals 1 Watt of Power, we look at the amount of Joule needed for that, and because it's 1 second, it's 1 Watt divided by 1 Second = 1 Joule. And since Joule is Newton per meter or simple Newton meter (Nm) and we move 1 meter, we can take 1 Joule divided by 1 meter, which is again 1, so we can say we have 1 Newton of force. And since force (in N) is mass (in kg) multiplied by acceleration (in m/s²), we can divide 1 Newton by 10.81 m/s² of acceleration, which equals 0.092507 kg, so the weight should actually be 92.5 grams, to equal 1 Watt of Power when moving the weight 1 meter over 1 second.

    • @SchotteJ
      @SchotteJ 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      So for the pull-up, because you're pulling up 60 cm or 0.6 m in half a second, that means that when you start from 0 m/s, you accelerated to an average speed of 1.2 m/s in half a second, which means your acceleration was 2.4 m/s²; add that to the acceleration that gravity provides, at 9.81 m/s², you'd be accelerating at 12.21 m/s². That times your weight at 95 kg is 1159.95 Newton of force multiplied by the distance at 0.6 m is 695.97 Joule of Work, which you then divide by the time in seconds; 0.5, which equals 1391.94 Watts of Power.
