In this tutorial, I simulate bouncing balls inside a circle using Python and physics principles! Watch as I demonstrate how to apply collision detection, gravity, and movement in a circular space.

In this tutorial, I walk you through solving boundary value problems using the Shooting Method in Python. Learn how to apply this numerical technique to find solutions for differential equations with ...

In this video from PYCON 2016 in Portland, Pramod Gupta from the University of Washington presents: Computational Physics with Python – Planetary Orbits from Newton to Feynman. “Newton’s explanation ...

Everyone already uses computers in physics. At the very least, students use handheld calculators (I doubt anyone is still using a slide-rule calculator). Also, it's becoming more common to have ...

Python is simple to use, but it is a real programming language, offering much more structure and support for large programs than shell scripts or batch files can ...

The big story this week is that Rosetta’s Philae lander has touched down on a comet. During the descent, cartoonist and former physicist Randall Munroe captured the event in a series of 142 sketches.
