I'm fascinated by this change: I used to have an interesting idea of a viz that would help my Ss learn something, then I'd put my coding skills to the test to build it. I'd share it and be proud of both my idea and my skills. Now all I have is the idea since an LLM can build the viz. #iteachphysics

Why was my homemade capacitor's data not quite linear? Fringe electric fields. The farther apart the plates, the more they matter, the higher the measured capacitance, and the more inflated the dielectric constant. youtu.be/r3io59l665E

From 12 years ago, but just saw this: David Kaplan (John’s Hopkins physics and you’ve probably seen him in Particle Physics) on how he got interested in physics.

(it was his enthusiastic HS physics T)

Fight the good fight, good people.🫡

Here is video analysis of Dean's bungee jump that includes air resistance and bungee mass. The max velocity is a little less and max acceleration is quite a bit less than my predictions. This make sense when including air resistance. I used PASCO Capstone's video analysis tool. #ITeachPhysics

Anyone else every question how textbooks all show Newton's 2nd Law as F=ma but Principia talks about ∆p=Ft?

When did that transition occur? Which textbook made that decision?

5th week of lectures for Quantum Information and Computing, part of the PHYS4121 Atoms Lasers and Qubits module at @durhamphysics.bsky.social
Themes of the week: quantum cryptography; density matrix; reduced density matrix; quantum Gates and circuits.

🧪 #physics ⚛️ #iTeachPhysics 🎢
An image showing a two-qubit 4 by 4 density matrix. The other colour-coded images show how to construct the reduced density matrix for either qubit A or qubit B by "tracing out" the other. A circuit model of a two-particle interferometer. Recast as a sequence of quantum Gates. Subject to a conditional phase shift being accumulated between the pi/2 pulses the output is a Bell-like state.

Here is my physics analysis of your jump. The results check well with expected values. 3g max accel is not too bad. I am sure looking over the edge before you jump is the hardest part. Instead of ALT text, I included links to two YouTube videos that talk through a similar problem. #ITeachPhysics
a physics problem with a diagram and a lot of equations. I made some YouTube videos where i talk through a similar problem here: https://youtu.be/TvLJ6rDcSWA?si=hXUcoI26SHORBjlK and here: https://youtu.be/beyVcBXwL3U?si=xOhvSqPCfK4Ye2X0

Student in my class: I feel so sorry for my calculator.
Me: Your calculator is probably having more fun this semester than it's had in its entire life.
