  1. Such a down to earth explanation. I've found it really helpful! I would finish watching the rest of the videos within the lockdown days😊

  2. Sorry sir I'm asking out of video but i think you only answer who i know…..the ques is….every galaxy have its blackhole at its centre the universe start from big bang like nuclear bomb and it expand and expand but there is a time when it stop to expand and start to shrink and…..is all the matter again goes to none or shrink to a single point…..sir i hope u will answer soon

  3. There is one problem when he talks about measuring speed of light in different reference frames. His conclusion is right while i doubt his argument. He argues that different observers in different frames measures speed of light differently because frame is moving too, CORRECT! but then he argues that are the values of permeability and permitivity different in different frames? I find this wrong argument as the observer is NOT measuring the ABSOLUTE speed of light, all he is doing is measuring RELATIVE speed of light from his reference. When he will measure the speed of light (absolute) from a light source in his reference system then he will be actually in a position to compare observed speed of light with maxwell's formulae

  4. Thanks for reply..sir..listen once more…We can just take a reference frame outside the earth (in space) to get the absolute rest condition …but why we needed to consider a medium such as ether to overcome the problem??Yes,I understand this theory can explain other demand such as propagation of light,let just forget about that …. general theory of relativity sustains as long as we hold the existence of ether medium….but why go to the idea of ether in the first place where we can just claim space as as a reference frame as absolute rest???

  5. Sir …can you explain again why we came the idea of ether to eliminate the the difficulties of the different speed of light for different reference frame??I don't understand that part..

  6. The more he explains, the more questions I have. Strange as it may seem, this means that I understand what he's saying. Thank you for the amazing lecture series! Greetings from Michigan 🙂

  7. This is AN AMAZING course. I´ve never met before such clear but deep ideas on teaching about SR…..
    The only improvement I can think of would be a similar course in General Relativity: Such course would be AWSOME if taught by this incredible teacher. Thanks for this course from Spain.

  8. hai sir
    will you please explain me once that the point you have said at 28:20 in the above lecture that you had said the both frames s ans s' are intertial frames of references but the relative velocity between the both frames of references does not depend on time . My dought is why it doesnt depend on time.
