In this tutorial, I simulate bouncing balls inside a circle using Python and physics principles! Watch as I demonstrate how to apply collision detection, gravity, and movement in a circular space.
In this tutorial, I walk you through solving boundary value problems using the Shooting Method in Python. Learn how to apply this numerical technique to find solutions for differential equations with ...
One of the most important topics taught at the start of introductory physics is the idea of vectors. Students really need proficiency with them if they are to use force and momentum. Just about every ...
In this video from PYCON 2016 in Portland, Pramod Gupta from the University of Washington presents: Computational Physics with Python – Planetary Orbits from Newton to Feynman. “Newton’s explanation ...
Most of us first hear about the irrational number π (pi)—rounded off as 3.14, with an infinite number of decimal digits—in ...
I recently facilitated a workshop for high school physics teachers in South Africa (two workshops actually---one in Johannesburg and one in Cape Town). The goal of the workshop was to introduce ...
