Computer-based physics teaching material with multimedia mresources, with each module providing sufficient for a complete first-year course on its topic. Intended as a substitute for lectures but to be used...
Examines flow problems in laboratory models and practical situations, including the wash produced by a boat on a canal, and a tidal wave in a harbour. Discusses the value of models and analyses their...
The nature of vibrations and sounds - shows how each instrument needs a vibrator, an resonator and efflux. Covers: comparison of wave forms on CRO; music and noise; pitch - frequency, amplitude; musical...
Discusses interference or superposition, a property of waves. Covers: interference of waves in water; Young’s twin slit experiment; colour of soap films; coherent and incoherent light; Newton’s rings,...
Discusses the mechanisms, characteristics and behaviour of (non-light) waves travelling through matter. Examines: transverse waves, tension waves (ripples, gravity waves, longitudinal or push waves, shear...
A video-based course containing comprehensive information on materials and processes used in microwave and radio frequency hardware.
Two case studies concerned with waves: 1) describes the classic experiment ‘waves across the Pacific’ in which Walter Munk and colleagues tracked waves across half the globe from Antartica to Alaska; 2)...
An introduction to the general features of waves, showing constructive and destructive interference. Newton’s rings are then used as an example of interference. Procedures are carefully and clearly shown...
Five sections which illustrate aspects of fluid flows. 1: The no-slip condition between a fluid and a wall, flow over a thin plate, laminar and turbulent flows, flow over a section of a cylinder and the...
A programme in four modules illustrating the features of a fluid in motion and relating to the course study units. 1: fluid flow phenomena, showing how they can be visualised; 2: fluid flows that can be...
