Genomes: DNA Sequencing, Non-coding RNA, and Genetic Mutations https://youtu.be/7vT6E5w_e5c

In this video, I explain the concept of genomes, which refers to the complete set of DNA in an organism, encompassing all of its genes.

Recap on Power Series, Taylor Polynomials, and Taylor's Inequality https://youtu.be/xajyzNArX68

In this video I go over a quick recap on power series, which is a specific type of infinite series whose terms are powers of x multiplied by coefficients. A Taylor series is a specific type of power series whose coefficients are determined from the coefficients of a function.

Approximating Functions by Taylor Polynomials https://youtu.be/woT9NoaFM_Y

In this video, I demonstrate how Taylor polynomials can be used to approximate functions and how to evaluate the accuracy of these approximations by examining the absolute magnitude of the error.

Example 1: Approximating Cube Root Function by a 2nd Degree Taylor Polynomial https://youtu.be/0616gOyjbyQ

In this video I approximate the cube root function x^(1/3) by using a 2nd degree Taylor polynomial at a = 8. The first step is to obtain the first 2 derivatives of f at x = 8, and then the third derivative to be used for the error estimation.

Example 2: Approximating sin(x) with Taylor Polynomials and Calculating its Error https://youtu.be/FYD8E-kxpnk

In this video I go over a very in-depth video exploring the trigonometric sine function, its Taylor polynomials approximation, and its associated error.

Example 3: Einstein's Theory of Special Relativity vs. Classical Theory for Kinetic Energy https://youtu.be/OQrJllLdbp0

In this video I approximate Albert Einstein's kinetic energy equation from his theory of special relativity and show that at low velocities the equation agrees with the classical Newtonian equation K = (1/2)mv^2.

Exercise 1: Taylor Derivatives Equal the Function's Derivatives at x = a https://youtu.be/UqWf2PE1OeE

In this video I prove that the derivatives of a Taylor Polynomial are equal to the derivatives of the corresponding function used in the approximation when x = a. This is because any derivative at x = a of any Taylor polynomial cancels out all the terms (since a - a = 0) except the first term, which is just the corresponding derivative of f at x = a.

Magnetic Isopotentials Explain the Faraday Paradox, Stern-Gerlach Experiment, and Atomic Orbitals https://youtu.be/NOG9VOBtpY4 - notes

In this video I summarize the very important work of FractalWoman and Michael Snyder on Isopotentials, which are contours of equal magnetic field strength.
