Yes Dr. Lewin replied to every e-mail. I'm not sure if he still does (he's 80 years old now), but he did for me a few years ago. I saw him say in an interview that he rehearsed each lecture several times before he presented it to his students. I e-mailed him to ask if he meant before he gave a new lecture for the very first time or every single time he gave a lecture. Because I couldn't believe that after he had given a particular lecture 20 or 30 times he would still feel the need to rehearse it. I didn't really expect an answer, but he replied that he rehearsed for every single lecture each time he presents it! His lectures are like stage performances and he was certainly dedicated to his craft during his decades of teaching. Respects to you professor!
dear professor, it is for people like you the world is a better place amidst all the chaos. Had lost the love for physics (that intuitive thinking when I was a kid) due to the strangling equations and half hearted concepts which nobody cared to explain properly. it is for you that after such a long time, I sense that willingness to know about physics. thank you so very much for your lectures.i hope you come to India again to inspire the kids out here who are just chewing on equations and missing out the fun part of physics. we need teachers loke you. thanks
soura poddar, exactly sir! There is no love for physics. Engineering is preferred over such an amazing subject due to dreams *shown* of better salary and a comfortable lifestyle, not having to work as much later but just the 4-5 years. My interest was completely in physics but ended up taking up engineering due to lack of awareness on the scope of the subject and where the purpose of life lies: in work. There are a million others. Prof. Lewin, I enjoy your videos as much as I enjoyed Prof. Feynman's biography. Just wish more like you were all over the world.
He is wonderful. A truly fascinating character. Such great demeanor and humility. So much to learn from him. I'm a junior assistant professor in a seemingly unrelated field and I find so much inspiration in his words, his approach, and his passion. We need him in this world for many many years to come.
Each time I see your video more I love you. Now after seeing this video I love 100 times more! You're a really nice guy! You have the comedy sense. I feel at home with you. I see your Jewish Humor and it reminds me my dad that always is telling good and smart jokes. I'm studying mechanical engineering in Brazil and I feel that I can, someday, be a men like you, teaching that physics is fun!
Professor good morning! I am Sandeep from Indian 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳Dehradun please search once about Dehradun Uttrakhand! I love your Lectures every time ! My best subject and my life is Physics now I am happy and fully filled with Potential Energy it gives me kinetic energy while studying physics !!!! Now I am attacking towards Physics just like magnet N S dipole! Love you Walter and great respect you are my Ideal ! Goad for me Tru love for you !!!! Teaching is very noble profession , that shapes the character caliber and future of an individual if the people will remember me as a student of Walter that will be biggest honour for me love you Walter Liv La Walter ,,..... Long live!!!! 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌹
Dr. Walter you are amazing...you are physics ...finally , my phy. love was satisfied by your lectures...thank you for an infinte inspiration ..intelligence can finally resonate ...we know there is no zero gravity but it is good to live as if a lift pulls you up and call it a flight....not much can teach physics or explain light...either traped in darkness but you sir by interference a fringe of bright....by the right way and simple words no, by the name of Newton, could there be a force to fight... as you love physics inturn physics loves you back(Newtons 3rd law alright)...charge your capacitors and resiset by ohm ,no stoping the voltage amplified....from mechanics to electricity to quantem to light ...and much more so we are never thru..at last from a fan may the mass.c squared be with you... :)
Dr Lewis, You are an inspiration to the teachers, the Physics lovers and students. Thank you Sir. I have a question, which professor or scientist is your role model or fascinate you?
*Take all my 3 MIT courses, do all the homework and take all my exams. Also solve all 140+ problems I cover in my Help Sessions. All are on this channel. Your understanding of and performance in physics will go sky high!*
you rockstar you!. I didn't get the daffodils but I got the opportunity to get a certificate on 8.01x that I hope I can get autographed someday!. A rainbow made national news in Mexico the other day and it reminded me of you, let me fetch you a link in case you're interested...
Well yeah but I'd be honored to actually meet you and that's the best excuse I could come up with to get your non-digital autograph. It's hanging on my wall, for what it's worth. although my copy of For the Love of Physics sits there uncomfortably unsigned, too... don't worry, it's just wishes and goodwill, I live too far from you to actually bother you. I send you my digital handshake, appreciation and even a high five if you'll take it.
Lectures by Walter Lewin. They will make you ♥ Physics. oh, that's totally what's happening now then!. Is the address somewhere online? (I'm googling right now. I must've missed it.)
I'm a ten year old boy, but I have a question: Can you fall down in space? I don't know if this is related to physics, and thank you for your amazing lessons. ♥︎♡♥︎♡
+Ngan Ngoc You can fall down when you are on the Moon or on Mars. You cannot fall down if you are in the International Space Station as you then have no weight. If you are in a spacecraft of the way to Mars, during your 6 month trip you cannot fall down but after you have landed on Mars you can fall down.
+Lectures by Walter Lewin. They will make you ♥ Physics. wwowowoow i can t believe that ... i watched ur lectures like movies.. u r a movie star for me.. u r a true legend..... i got 50% in my 11th standard but got 97% in 12th just because of u.. u motivated me. to achieve that .. tnx alot for that
Were you really on the Martha Stewart show?!!! Is she really working on a physics book? Newton's Fourth Law: Fg=G•m1•m2/r^2. -My name is Newton and I concur. 😊💚
Sir I understand the concept well but I don't know when I see the numerical question I'm blank. I try hard but my marks are the same I don't know what's the problem in me to do physics can u please give me some suggestion sir 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I've been calling the big G in his law of gravitation the Cavendish Constant, after Henry Cavendish who first measured it. Newton didn't set it up as an equation, but as a proportionality, and measuring the universal constant was not in Newton's conclusions of that law.
honestly easily. currently I'm studying at ucla, but I supplement with some of the same textbooks that are used at MIT. when I watch the lectures, I can tell from when the students participate that many did not do their pre reading, and that at least a few of those won't end up knowing the material very well. by studying the way I am rn I actually ended up getting the top score on both midterms in my first mechanics class at ucla lmao
just enjoy what you're doing and make sure to do a lot of problems and understand every step you choose and youre probably at the average in any MIT class (aka better than half of the class!!!!)

Yes, Dennis!... Walter answered a question of mine as far back as 5 or 6 weeks!
Yes, they are great shows! every one is unique
can you provide me email address of Walter sir?
I never thought you would be this fun and loving person
:)
@@lecturesbywalterlewin.they9259 Is there a chance of me In MIT's ;)
read MIT's admission sites
Very intuitive lectures, I wish you are my lecturer when I was still in college. Great teaching sir.
I remember watching this episode. Many people follow in your footsteps Professor Lewin.

Sir I really don't have words to compliment you. You are just great & awasome teacher I have from in my life. Love from India.
i am a medical doctor but love your lectures !
:)
Dr Lewn is the best teacher in the world , "my inspiration" !!!
fantastic! thanks to help improve my knowledge about physical! A big huge come from Portugal! :)
Yes , that's true he replies to every mail ..... Thanks a lot sir !!!!!!
What is his email?
Sir As always Awesome .
If there was anyone I wouldn't mind getting stuck in an elevator with it's Walter.
Your lectures changed my life sirr........ thou words made ma life love physics........
wonderful
Great teacher
Awesome Teacher
Every physicist is a colorful masterpiece.
You both are very charming and I hold you both in high regard, Who does not love physics and good food!

Cool bicycle professor! I am eagerly waiting for a video from you talking about gravitational waves.. Can we expect it in the near future.. Cheers!

What is your advice for me mister Walter?
I am from Saudi Arabia
*Take all my 3 MIT courses, do all the homework and take all my exams. Also solve all 140+ problems I cover in my Help Sessions. All are on this channel. Your understanding of and performance in physics will go sky high!*
Oh sir Walter lewin, I love physics and I love you 😍
Are there still these applausing audience in us-shows?
sir any advice for the life ?
how to live so to not regret later on?
*get vaccinated* at least twice!
