Orders of magnitude

Orders of magnitude (numbers)

This list contains selected positive numbers in increasing order, including counts of things, dimensionless quantities and probabilities. Each number is given a name in the short scale, which is used in English-speaking countries, as well as a name in the long scale, which is used in some of the countries that do not have English as their national language.

Visualizing Complex Number Multiplication

In this video, I discuss the rotational and scaling aspects of complex number multiplication and how both miraculously follow from the simple assumption that some object, called "i", squares to -1. I also present some animations showing the effect of complex number multiplication on a coll

The Truth about Orders of Magnitude (100th video)

A lot of people treat order-of-magnitude estimates like regular rounding. If you do that, then you're doing it wrong. Let's set the record straight. Also, this is the 100th video on this channel! WOOO!!! ________________________________ VIDEO ANNOTATIONS Why Doesn't Light Have Mass? https

The Complex Numbers You Haven't Heard Of

In this video, I introduce the split-complex numbers, which are similar to the complex numbers except we now have an object, called "j", which squares to +1. As you will see, multiplying split-complex numbers with j^2=1 in mind will generate motion following hyperbolas, similar to how comp

Learn how to identify the magnitude and direction from a vector given in that form

Learn how to determine the magnitude and direction of a vector. The magnitude of a vector is the length of the vector. The magnitude of a vector is obtained by taking the square root of the sum of the squares of the components of the vector. The direction of a vector is obtained by taking
