1. Classical Mechanics Lecture 1 (September 26, 2011)

Leonard Susskind discusses the some of the basic laws and ideas of modern physics. In this lecture, he focuses on some of the incorrect laws of motion that were first proposed by Aristotle. (October 3, 2011)

2. Classical Mechanics Lecture 2 (October 3, 2011)

Leonard Susskind discusses the some of the basic laws and ideas of modern physics. In this lecture, he focuses on the motion of objects. (November 1, 2011)

6. Classical Mechanics Lecture 6 (November 1, 2011)

Modern Physics: Classical Mechanics (Fall 2011)

Leonard Susskind&#39;s fall 2011 course stands out by covering the essential core concepts in classical mechanics in a clear and widely accessible manner.   His new Modern Physics series continues to improve as he revisits topics he has previously covered in past years.  It also seems that some of the students have taken his lecture series before and are now asking generally sharper and more insightful questions.  His responses to these more pointed questions adds significantly to the overall learning experience.
