Excellent! Power of physics married to mathematics. Or as
Feynman would have it guess implies computational
consequences (mathematical theory) is compared to experiment
(implies real world outcome).

This is lesson 7, Weight and Weightlessness. Where is the
one about friction?

This is lesson 7, Weight and Weightlessness, what happened
to the one about Friction?

Hi, I just want to say that this lecture is supposed to be
about friction. It is possible to post the friction lecture?
