Description: A block on an inclined plane with friction is analyzed to solve for the coefficient of static friction. The work-energy theorem is shown to provide an elegant solution to solving for the block's velocity.

Description: A top is spun on the desk to show that friction dissipates the top's kinetic energy into heat and the top quickly falls over. Professor Lewin then spins the same top on a small magic black box. The top does not fall over, how bizarre!
