Even
if you have taken some pretty intense physics courses in college, this series of short videos (a minute long) will
really appeal to you. In a mesmerizingly primal manner, the lessons are conducted with a voice narrating while a
hand draws simple diagrams to compliment the story. I am amazed to witness how consistently each concept is
presented in utter simplicity - sort of a validation of Occam's razor. The first one I watched was on the speed of
light in glass, and why frequency stays the same even though the speed of light is lower in glass. The explanation
of distance measurement according to Special Relativity might surprise you from a time perspective that you hadn't
considered before. Check out similarly creative lessons on the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, the arrow of
time, Schrödinger's Cat, and many more.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling
2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed
formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit
design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at
the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps
while tying up your telephone line, and a lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail"
when a new message arrived...
