Reflections on attempting to teach algebra-based physics to high school sophomores of all ability levels. Tuesday, July 24, 2012. Notes are something you make, not something you take. After our qualitative discussion, we talked about developing a common terminology and notation.

Brief History of the Department. Our astrophysics and cosmology group. Explores such areas as the formation of galaxies; the production of dark matter in the early universe; and the properties, evolution, and death throes of massive stars.

Students in the intermediate level physics lab. Michael Kosterlitz of Brown University to give lecture, A Random Walk Through Physics to the Nobel Prize, on April 23, 2018. So You Want To Be an Engineer? The Vassar-Dartmouth Dual Degree Program. A Long Time Ago in a Galaxy Far, Far Away. Physics and Astronomy Department at Vassar College.

This repo contains fun physics simulations. This repo contains simple and funny physics projects. We will share the solutions as well as the implementations. If you have any suggestions. Double Pendulum in less than 100 lines of JavaScript. The Double Pendulum is a simple yet rich physical system. The motion of the pendulums is governed by a pair of coupled differential equations, which we will solve using the Euler method.
