The following are all my videos and resources for the second semester of calc-based physics. For this course, I’m using the textbook: Matter and Interactions (Chabay and Sherwood) published by Wiley. (Spoiler Alert—this is the best intro physics textbook in the universe).
If you are interesting in learning physics on your own or perhaps you are teaching this course, these videos and resources are for you. Hope you find them useful. Oh, I just pick a few homework questions from each chapter for students to submit.
