Brilliant answer. It is not intuitive that while it takes the same energy to heat an object from 0 C to 1 C as it does from 1 C to 2 C, it takes 1/3 of the energy to speed up an object from 0 kph to 1 kph than it does from 1 kph to 2 k

I can’t help comparing this to the system I grew up in (Italy), which is vastly different and it seemingly produces very good graduates. University was free and there was no test for enrolling in STEM degrees, and you could retry exams ever
