Displacement close displacementA distance measured in a specified direction. is the distance moved in a straight line, in a given direction, from the starting point. Displacement = 24 m east. Velocity ...

Newton's Second Law states that force equals mass times acceleration. This can be investigated using a set-up like this one. You can use this set-up to investigate how changing two separate factors, ...

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 ...

Speed is the rate at which something moves. Fast-moving objects have high speeds, slow-moving ones have low speeds, and objects with no movement have zero speed. Velocity, on the other hand, is speed ...

Occasionally there are physics lab demonstrations that I think are pretty awesome but that my students just think are "meh." This is one of those cases. The basic idea in this demo, which I used in my ...

Anderson acceleration is an optimisation technique designed to improve the convergence of fixed-point iterations, a common approach utilised in solving nonlinear equations. By blending current and ...
