unfortunately, such wonderful channels don't get as much subscribers as they deserve!
You are doing a great job sir!😔

[gpkumar]

Awesome ! I didn’t understand what my teacher said, even after explaining again and again, this really helped me understand the point ! I owe you lots.

[utkangezer]

I love the production quality with this one :D
One thing to add: Once the wheels starts rolling, and if the bike isn't accelerating or decelerating, there is no more friction between the wheels and the ground. Yeah, both of them.

your concept of making surface first frictionless and checking relative motion is very helpfull it solve all my problem thank u brother❤️❤️❤️

[fuadtushar]

Amazing explanation. This channel needs much more recognition. Keep up the great work.

[neerajas]

very very helpful thank you for such good animation

[puneetagarwal]

The animation was really helpful. Thanks a lot!!

Oh God .what an explanation! I can't believe that I understood it, really thanks from my core of heart sir and I bound to subscribe the best channel on the YouTube, I have done a good job to subscribe it😀😀😀

[deepmoyrudrasarma]

I am thinking, where were ur channel all this days, really helpful

[drujjawalrathore]

Very good ! Something brand new and easy to visualise

[saurabhanand]

It is best channel for iit preperation

[shivanijaiswal]

Because of visualization the makes very easy to understand
🙂🙂☺️

[momos]

Thank you very much for this lesson from Algeria

[rajarsihomroy]

undoubtedly one of the finest animation on bicycle friction available on the open learning forums!! great work team OCW!!

[samarthyadav]

One of the best channel to understand physics.I have subscribed

On the front wheel there is torque due to friction. But what opposes this torque to allow the wheel to rotate with constant rpm

[maleeshapriyanjana]

I was anable to understand this theory even though I tried to find it for many hours. I got almost every theory within this short video. Thank you very much

[rtxk-ufpb]

i am sri Lankan advance level biology student...thank you sir this helped me in physics lot..oh myy gosh al is in 3 months🥶🥶

[michaelpw]

wonderful explanation and animation Thank you!

[yashtewatia]

please make video on virtual work method
