The video tutorial covers two main topics: calculating speed and comparing revolutions per minute (RPM). Maria and Nadia's trip from Philadelphia to Toronto is used to explain how to calculate speed by dividing distance by time, resulting in a speed of 60 mph. The tutorial then explores equations representing speeds greater than 60 mph. In the second part, the RPM of vinyl records is compared, with 'oldies' rotating at 78 RPM and 'goodies' at 45 RPM, demonstrating how to calculate RPM by dividing revolutions by time.
