Favourite Lecturer

So NTU has this voting system that requires all students to nominate one lecturer for the Common Engineering Teaching Excellence Award. I’m glad to say that my choice, Dynamics lecturer A/P Yap, continues to amaze the whole lecture group with his use of videos to explain concepts.

Today, he showed us how cats land on their feet after being dropped from a 2 metre height. Tres cool. Something to do with angular velocity and inertia.

It’s times like these that I’m glad I’m doing something I have an affinity for (and almost a slight interest in). The next three years might not be so bad.

    now get someone to explain gyroscopes, rotation and how that causes a force to act perpendicular to angle of rotation.
