There is another important tool when it comes to solving differential equations, and that is the Laplace transform. This is an operator that we can apply to both sides of a differential equation in order to solve it in a fairly involved way.

Before archeologists can excavate a site, they need to know where to dig. Surveys are the techniques used to find these places. What are the techniques used in archeological survey, as well as the technologies? What is LiDAR and how is that used? There is a lot to unpack here, so let's get a closer look!Script by Robert WilliamsWatch the whole Anthropology playlist: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveAnthroGeneral Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveGenChemOrganic Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveOrgChemBiochemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBiochemBiology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBioAnatomy & Physiology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveAnatPhysMicrobiology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveMicrobioBotany Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBotanyZoology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveZooEMAIL► [email protected]► http://patreon.com/ProfessorDaveExplainsCheck out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!Amazon: https://amzn.to/2HtNpVHBookshop: https://bit.ly/39cKADMBarnes and Noble: https://bit.ly/3pUjmrn Book Depository: http://bit.ly/3aOVDlT Learn more about your ad choices.

We talked about the foundation and expansion of Kievan Rus, so now let's move forward and talk about some of its most historic rulers. The son of Prince Sviatoslav was named Vladimir the Great, who mass converted the citizens to Christianity. His son Yaroslav succeeded him, and established the first Slavic code of laws. Let's learn all about them!Script by Peter WyetznerWatch the whole World History playlist: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveWorldHistoryAmerican History Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveAmericanHistoryItalian Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveItalianClassical Physics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics1Modern Physics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics2General Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveGenChemOrganic Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveOrgChemBiochemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBiochemBiology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBioEMAIL► [email protected]► http://patreon.com/ProfessorDaveExplainsCheck out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!Amazon: https://amzn.to/2HtNpVHBookshop: https://bit.ly/39cKADMBarnes and Noble: https://bit.ly/3pUjmrn Learn more about your ad choices.

It's time to expose another worthless pseudoarcheology fraud! With some obvious targets out of the way, let's hit one of the newer rising stars, Michael Button. He's essentially a Graham Hancock clone. Same script full of lies, same accent, same demeanor, same everything. He seems to be hoping to be passed the torch, and Graham seems to approve. If you saw through toxic douchebags like Dan and Jimmy, but you were clinging to this guy as some kind of voice for truth, think again. Every video is jam packed with lies and deception. Let's debunk the crap out of his content, as well as his Joe Rogan episode.Population dynamics of mid-Holocene: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-023-35920-zTrump's Malta research: https://www.um.edu.mt/library/oar/bitstream/123456789/9224/1/Megalithic%20Architecture%20in%20Malta.pdf4.2 ka event: https://www.um.edu.mt/library/oar/bitstream/123456789/87871/1/The_4_2_ka_event_and_the_end_of_the_Maltese_Temple_Period_2022.pdfHunter-gatherer sea voyages: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-025-08780-yAstronomical alignments in Malta: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/253385376_Investigation_into_the_Possible_Astronomical_Alignments_of_the_Copper_Age_Temples_in_MaltaKalambo Falls find: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-06557-9Lidar in the Amazon: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-022-04780-4Watch all my Pseudoarcheology Debunks: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePseudoarchWatch my Anthropology/Archeology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveAnthroWatch my other debunks/debates/discussions: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveDebunkEMAIL► [email protected]► http://patreon.com/ProfessorDaveExplainsCheck out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!Amazon: https://amzn.to/2HtNpVHBookshop: https://bit.ly/39cKADMBarnes and Noble: https://bit.ly/3pUjmrn Learn more about your ad choices.
