Simulations of physical apparatus for e-learning. Physics for pedestrians.
Wire chambers can locate, in a gas, high energy, charged elementary particles such as electrons or protons, and follow their path, which can for example be deflected by a magnetic field. Very thin metallic wires are stretched between two parallel metal...
Read moreWe deal here with the equilibrium of parallel metallic conductors . The axis of conductors are perpendicular to the screen . The electric field is zero inside the conductor and there are charges only at their outer surface. The electric field is , just...
Read moreA two-dimensional gas with a maximum of 2000 circular molecules is proposed , in order to illustrate the kinetic theory of gases . The physical properties are the same as for three-dimensional: laws of Mariotte , entropy, Maxwell distribution , local...
Read moreThis module about optics includes simulations about: - Michelson-Morley and Fabry-Perot interferometers. In the latter case, we added simulations of parallel face slide in transmission and reflection (in this case it is a metallic mirror on one side)....
Read moreYou can view simple planar models for proton and meson formed of quarks ( 3 quarks to the proton, a quark and an antiquark in the meson ) . These models are far from reality , but they have the merit of giving an image , which is required to consider...
Read moreIn the case also of a chain of masses linked by springs, , masses are attracted by their neighbors by harmonic forces (of the type -kx, k being the constant of the springs, and x its strain) . This is the classic model of a chain of atoms in a solid,...
