Hey Everyone--Slow network speed is creating a delay. Episode will be available in a few minutes. Not quite relativity but things can take unexpected amounts of time.

Favourite equation??
For me its the Schrödinger's equation 😋😋🤭🤭

[carolinaribeiro]

boltzmann's equation for entropy!

[ajitshinde]

Einstein's field equation would be an interesting stuff

[Michael-insh]

13:59 the Latin word celeritas comes from celer, meaning swift, fast, and the suffix -tas, a Latin equivalent to our English -ty or -ness. The word celer also appears in words like accelerate. In Classical Latin the c is usually pronounced as a k.

Please consider Maxwell's equations 😍😍

[kortbeck]

I vote for Dirac's equations for some episode !!

[GordonDunbar]

Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, please. Thank you for the broadcast.

Dear Professor Greene, The equation on the tombstone of Stephen Hawking could be an interresting subject. I heard that it somehow connect 2 areas of physics...

[perrymnazjurgens]

The discussion about equations is so simple, yet priceless, I wish I had heard this 60 years ago when I was first learning various math disciplines - THANKS

[spiralgaming]

Heisenberg uncertainty principal in terms of position and momentum, energy and time
Schroedinger's equation

Hi Brian, I am a 9th grade geometry student in New York. I was wondering if you could cover SohCahToa (sine, cosine, tangent). I was just wondering why does this work, and why were these things invented.

[ianduncan]

You should do: e^iπ + 1 = 0

Edit: ^ Euler's Formula

[deeliciousplum]

This was wonderful. Thank you to Brian Greene and to WSF for creating these talks. During one of Brian's demonstrations, I do hope that no one was hurt as Brian's exercise thingy was launched at such a speed. 🤭

Hello professor
It's a great idea actually thanks for that.
I personally suggest an episode on Dirac's equation and the entropy equation

[marianavera-bren]

where do I find the links for an expanded explanation of the equations?

[ejtauri]

Hubble's Constant and what it tells us about the expansion of the Universe.

[babiiash]

Dear Professor Greene. Thank you so very much for doing this ! Love to you and your family !

@ 19:50 We need to see your Ipad. Just trying to be helpful

Maths and physics were the two subjects at school I found the most difficult. But I just love how communicators like Brian make it accessible to those like me who have no science background and stimulates my interest in these subjects.
