Basically, the title says it all. Here is a short tutorial on projectile motion calculations with a spreadsheet. New studies of the “platypus of materials” help explain how their atoms arrange ...

In a previous post, I was trying to show that the range of a projectile depends on the launch angle. Yes, this isn't that too difficult to see in an introductory physics course, but how do you show ...

I wish Angry Birds had been around when I was teaching high school physics. Please don’t think of the game as a hate crime against hogs, or an avian anger management program—instead, think of it as a ...

The terms projectile and trajectory are introduced. Projectile Motion: The terms projectile and trajectory are introduced. Students learn to describe horizontal and vertical components of a projectile ...

Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I ...

__A lot of insiders were wondering what new math R&A Chief Executive Peter Dawson was using __when he spoke up about changes to Royal St. George's for this year's British Open, which starts Thursday.
