Ah no this was in Holland (Utrecht), just assumed judging from this video that it's the same over there.
Then again the professor in this video is Dutch too so maybe that explains it ;)

I noticed on ur profile that ur dutch. So this applies to dutch universities too or did you study in the usa

Yeah it was like that when I was at uni, the first course of the first year for most subjects was recapping the basics we learned in highschool. I figured getting a degree would be dead easy until the second semester started :D

well yea, i guessed. But i mean easy stuff like this. I notice he introduces himself so he might be recapping the basics, but it still seems weird

I suppose bigger mass means stronger gravity. Compare the moon with the Earth.. smaller mass, about 6 times weaker gravity.

By the way, the time it takes an apple to fall doesn't depend on the mass of the Earth? How so?

Anyone knows how much it costs to study at MIT? and how about Princeton, Harvard?
It doesn't have to be very precise, just something close.

Physics you mean? Yes they do, among other things :D
YoeriYoeri (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
they teach this stuff at a university??

yep, he was born in the netherlands and studied in delft. I guess you never lose your accent if you learn another language at an older age |
