Elliptical loop-the-loop: minimum speed required
Finding the minimum speed a particle must have in order to complete a full loop around an elliptical track. The result depends on the ellipse's eccentricity in an interesting way, and in the video I discuss how to understand this dependence intuitively. About me: I studied Physics at the University of Cambridge, then stayed on to get a PhD in Astronomy. During my PhD, I also spent four years teaching Physics undergraduates at the university. Now, I'm working as a private tutor, teaching Physics & Maths up to A Level standard.
