That picture is epic. Im sure Sal has unknowingly just created a super hero.

[@DenovoTutor]

You inspired me to start my own UA-cam channel for tutoring. Keep doing what you're doing Sal!

[@heyyymal]

Sir you should also have a Degree in Painting🤯❤️

[@TheScienceCube]

Nice way of showing centripetal acceleration by combining velocity vectors at 2 points!

[@huuphat1671]

Oh man I’ve just finished my exam on this subject

[@iamjp15]

keep making these videos

[@RareSalmon93]

Great illustration! Thank you

[@zuesr3277]

Sal please make calculus based physics

[@davidwallace5738]

You know buddy, I'm a high school dropout with a GED who is interested in physics. I actually for the most part understand your explanation concerning the inward force especially at the end. Thank you!

[@devanvelo3725]

Can you calculate the difference in centrifugal force in the North Pole compared to the equator, thanks?!

[@quriositysquared1028]

Thank you

[@katlegokungoane3258]

ITS MAKING SO MUCH SENSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Karma-fh9ns]

May i know what software he used to do that kind of drawing? Blackboard style of drawing

[@sarvxnmusic2044]

Thanks a lot man...Explanation is clear

[@AuroraNora3]

Nice drawing

[@youyoumu]

This is not yet in playlist right?

[@LinFiles]

What about a tetherball? The pole is not a human pulling the string inward. And the rope gets shorter as it goes around. How do you explain this kind of centripetal physics?

[@iosui8109]

Nice

[@stardust-reverie]

"now one question you might have been wondering..."

[@esotericmissionary]

"trencipital"?
