In this Python physics tutorial, I show you how to draw the celestial sphere using Web VPython! Explore the stars, constellations, and the fundamental concepts behind the celestial coordinate system ...
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.
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
This module gives a brief overview of basics of nuclear physics, neutron slowing down, neutron transport, neutron diffusion, reactor kinetics and fuel depletion using python as a tool for the analysis ...
