Professor Dave uses a mini golf scenario to explain physics concepts. He describes a windmill obstacle with rotating blades and calculates the optimal ball velocity to pass through it. By applying linear and rotational kinematics, he determines the ball will pass unscathed. The tutorial emphasizes practical physics applications.
