April 27, 2009 - Leonard Susskind discusses the basic physics of the diatomic molecule and why you don't have to worry about its structure at low temperature. Susskind later explores a black hole thermodynamics.
-
Mechanics of repurchase agreements (repo transactions/loans).
-
April 20, 2009 - Leonard Susskind explains how to calculate and define pressure, explores the formulas some of applications of Helm-Holtz free energy, and discusses the importance of the partition function.
-
April 13, 2009 - Leonard Susskind reviews the Lagrange multiplier, explains Boltzmann distribution and Helm-Holtz free energy before oulining into the theory of fluctuations.
-
May 25, 2009 - Leonard Susskind picks up on magnets, phase transitions, and mean field transitions. He goes on to explain chemical potential.
-
May 11, 2009 - Leonard Susskind lectures on harmonic oscillators, quantum states, boxes of radiation and all associated computations such as wavelengths, volume, energy and temperature.
-
More on the mechanics of shorting stock.
-
May 4, 2009 - Leonard Susskind explains the second law of thermodynamics, illustrates chaos, and discusses how the volume of phase space grows.

Concepts covered in this lecture include hydrostatics, Archimedes' Principle, fluid dynamics, and Bernoulli's Equation. The buoyant foce of air on a ballon is discussed, and then Professor Lewin demonstrates how a balloon and a pendulum behave in accelerated, closed containers. The lecture ends with some non-intuitive demos shoiing how ping pong balls behave in air streams.

More on the mechanics of the Federal Funds rate and how it increases the money supply.
