Let's use physics to ensure that we get the most out of our bag of popcorn. This video explains the science of popcorn kernels while introducing the normal distribution and the central limit theorem. We'll also learn some techniques in signal processing, including convolution and filters, and we'll learn how wavelet transforms helped detect gravitational waves.
