Microsoft Excel Software Usage for Teaching Science and Engineering Curriculum
In this paper, our main objective is to present the use of Microsoft Software Excel 2007/2003 for teaching college and university level curriculum in science and engineering. In particular, we discuss two interesting and fascinating examples of interactive applications of Microsoft Excel targeted for undergraduate students in (1) computational physics and physics education, and in (2) computer ...
متن کاملProjectile Motion in Real Life
Projectile motion is a fundamental concept in basic physics courses. The often used simplified calculations, where air resistance is neglected, are obviously not relevant for many real life events. Using a video camera and computer software, students can investigate the influence of air resistance on for instance the trajectory of a football. The video sequences are digitised and the xand y-pos...
متن کاملProjectile Motion
Introduction: A projectile is a body in free fall that is subject only to the forces of gravity (9.81ms⎯2) and air resistance. An object must be dropped from a height, thrown vertically upwards or thrown at an angle to be considered a projectile. The path followed by a projectile is known as a trajectory. If gravity were not present, a projectile would travel in a constant straight line. Howeve...
متن کاملSimulation Model for Weft Yarn Motion in a Single-Nozzle Air-Jet Loom
Air-jet weaving is an advanced weaving method with high efficiency and productivity. It is one of the most widely used methods of weaving in the world. In air-jet filling insertion, the motion of weft yarn is caused by friction between weft yarn and air blown through nozzle. After declamping and subjecting the yarn to air stream, its motion is not active but very complicated and influenced by ...
