I'm experiencing some technical problems here. I can't pause the video. It's common to all lectures . I think there's a problem with the video player.

I'm looking for (many) example problems with worked out solutions, preferably video tutorials.
Does this site have lectures only?
I can find many, random physics problems on Youtube for free, but I'm looking for a place that has that information organized and well-presented.
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

On Example X, why you got -15,000 N instead of 15000N? How come you got a negative number? Thanks!
