Thanks. Earlier i just used to cram the meterial written in books. But your videos helped me imagine what actually physics is ! Thanks for your hardwork
Lots and lots of love from india 🇮🇳

Just loved it you're teaching style is super amazing 😍

[taker]

Thanks for being the best teacher in the world 🙃😉

[boboom]

You Indeed are and excellent Teacher, You need more recognition!!Also I'd watched more than 5 of your videos today all of then amazing

how can we understand which types of waves something is, longitudinal or transverse? For example sound waves, how did one know that it is longitudinal?

And we enjoyed learning with you.. Keep it sir

[lorenzobenitezbarboza]

thank you, this is just what I wanted

[harshithgowni]

Can you make a playlist on sound please.

[thatsnotme]

Thank I’m just starting waves in school

[rishabhbajaj]

sir i have a lots of fun thanks for all videos and for free thankss

[phenomenalphysics]

So transverse waves are like gravitational waves right?

[ybrii]

Hi, what about waves in the ocean? As you said only the energy moves, but then, what are tsunamis? I understand that regular waves might just be periodic moving up and down from equilibrium. But the tsunami moves so much further than the shore.
Thanks in advance
