Go!!

1, 2, 3, a song about 'lectricity because it powers our lives, makes it possible for us to thrive. Because it powers our lives, makes it possible for us to thrive.

Oh, 4, 5, 6, volts of potential difference makes electrons go round if the circuit is complete and sound. Circuit's closed.

Voltage! There! Current flows! Power everywhere! We use AC, in factories and homes because we can transform it. High voltage transmits with lower loss, but low voltage is best for safety.

I said, what is electricity? Well, so, 1, 2, 3, a song about 'lectricity because it powers our lives, makes it possible for us to thrive. Because it powers our lives, makes it possible for us to thrive.

Oh, 4, 5, 6, volts of potential difference makes electrons go round if the circuit is complete and sound. Heat makes steam, turns turbines, and a magnet in coils of wires.

We use AC in factories and homes because we can transform it. High voltage transmits with lower loss, but low voltage is best for safety.

I said, what is electricity? Oh yeah, oh yeah, c'mon! How'd it be no energy of the electrical persuasion? I know we'd have no computers, no internet, or mobile phones, yeah!

Powers the world, makes the world, we need electricity, yeah!

Loved it! I don’t— I didn’t really think about where it came from. Probably in the same way that you didn’t really think about where your food came from when you were a kid too. I don’t remember exactly when I decided to stop eating sharks in soup or when…

Modeling with multiple variables: Taco stand | Modeling | Algebra 2 | Khan Academy

We’re told a certain taco stand sells t tacos per day for a net profit of 300. Each taco costs c dollars to make and is sold for p dollars. Write an equation that relates t, c, and p, so pause this video and see if you can do that. All right, now let’s w…

Comparing P-values to different significance levels | AP Statistics | Khan Academy

What we’re going to do in this video is talk about significance levels, which are denoted by the Greek letter alpha. We’re going to talk about two things: the different conclusions you might make based on the different significance levels that you might …

Ancient Life as Old as the Universe

Life has existed on one planet for about 4 billion years, as far as we know. But it might have started right after the Big Bang, when the universe was much stranger and more fantastic than today. A universe that might have allowed life to develop absolute…
