Welcome to Python Physics Lesson 5, where we explore projectile motion with drag forces. In this lesson, we go beyond idealized motion to show how air resistance affects trajectories, velocity, and ...

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 Python Physics #27, we break down the concept of electric potential using point charges and Python simulations. Learn how to calculate and visualize the potential created by single and multiple ...

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 ...

It's near the start of a new semester of physics. Many faculty are working on their plans for introductory physics courses. How many tests should there be? What about homework? Do I want to cover ...
