Constructing a Reed Boat | The Great Human Race

A ton of energy goes into making this boat. All these reeds have to be cut, collected, carried, transported to here. All the cordage has been made, and now we have to take it and actually make the boat.

All right, so I live here, and here, and you're doing there. There, we're going to wrap each bundle with the cord that we've made. If the cord breaks, then not come undone, or we tie the wrong knot, our boat will sink.

All right, let me just do this. We're gonna slide these out maybe and go in the other way because all of them are just facing one way. Sure, but they need to be all these some of these out too. Like, I mean, already tight.

Yeah, hold on! Time out, time out! We had these all distributed. They're all the same size, and you start taking out and turn them around. I gave me this thing about—wait, we don't turn anymore! But we just wait; it's about mass, okay? It's about size.

All right, so this got it. So let's put it back. I think what I'm doing is fine. I think it'll work. I do. It's intense because we're nervous; we don't know if this is going to work. If we don't succeed, then Bill and I are stuck here.

2015 AP Chemistry free response 3e | Chemistry | Khan Academy

The initial pH and the equivalence point are plotted on the graph below. Accurately sketch the titration curve on the graph below. Mark the position of the half equivalence point on the curve with an X. All right, so we have— they show us the initial pH …

Metallic solids | Intermolecular forces and properties | AP Chemistry | Khan Academy

Let’s talk a little bit about metallic solids. Here is an example of what a metallic solid might look like: they tend to be shiny, like this. Some would say lustrous. Some of you might be guessing maybe this is some type of aluminum or silver. It actually…

How To Stop Being Lazy

What’s up guys? It’s Graham here. So here’s a problem that pretty much all of us suffer from at one point or another, and that would be laziness. It’s that feeling of literally not wanting to do anything, even though you know you should, for no other reas…

Great White Shark Photo Shoot: Don't Try This At Home | National Geographic

Look at him right here! God, he’s big. Whoa, look at the size of that animal coming right at us! I am in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, which over the last few years has become sort of great white shark central. Man, look at all the seals! That explains everyth…

Limits of piecewise functions | Limits and continuity | AP Calculus AB | Khan Academy

Let’s think a little bit about limits of piecewise functions that are defined algebraically like our F of x right over here. Pause this video and see if you can figure out what these various limits would be. Some of them are one-sided and some of them are…

Dividing a decimal by a whole number on the number line

In this video, we’re going to try to figure out what 0.6, or 6 tenths, divided by 2 is. I’ll give you a little bit of a hint; we have 6 tenths plotted on the number line right over here. One way to think about it is if I wanted to go from zero to six ten…
