A survey of Scientific American’s century of quantum coverage helps explain the enduring popularity of strange physics ...

Combining Vectors Graphically: Students learn to combine component vectors graphically to produce resultants and use the head-to-tail method to do a vector analysis of a route between rooms.

Vectors are pretty important in the introductory physics course. Here are some tips on using python to teach vectors.

Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I really like to use numerical calculations without all the fancy programming ...

In 1900, German theoretical physicist Max Planck accidentally gave birth to the field of quantum mechanics (aka quantum physics) when he tried to investigate why the results of his black body ...

Quantum Mechanics In day to day life, we intuitively understand how the world works. Drop a glass and it will smash to the floor. Push a wagon and it will roll along. Walk to a wall and you can't ...

Some people claim that quantum physics is too arcane and remote to have practical applications, but modern life would be impossible without our understanding of the quantum nature of light and matter.

Perhaps no other area of physics has enjoyed as much attention from scientists and non-scientists as quantum mechanics. The fame of quantum mechanics theories stands in juxtaposition to the ...

Quantum Physics Could Finally Explain Consciousness, Scientists Say We asked a theoretical physicist, an experimental physicist, and a professor of philosophy to weigh in.

In Bethel’s B.S. in Applied Physics with an emphasis in mechanics, you’ll gain a comprehensive understanding of classical mechanics, fluid dynamics, and materials science, preparing you for careers in ...
