Lecture 3 of Leonard Susskind's Modern Physics course concentrating on General Relativity. Recorded October 6, 2008 at Stanford University.
In this lecture, Leonard
Susskind continues his discussion of Einstein's theory of general relativity. He
also gives a broad overview of the field of tensor calculus and it's relation to
the curvature and geometry of space-time.
This Stanford Continuing
Studies course is the fourth of a six-quarter sequence of classes exploring the
essential theoretical foundations of modern physics. The topics covered in this
course focus on classical mechanics. Leonard Susskind is the Felix Bloch
Professor of Physics at Stanford University
.
