Math! Past Classes(Clicking a class title will bring you to the course's section of the corresponding course catalog)C7429: Calculus of Variations: An Idea that Changed Physics in Splash Fall 2019 (Nov. 16 - 17, 2019)
Newton's Laws have been presented as a fundamental law, but a century later Lagrange proposed a new paradigm that can prove the Three Laws of Motion. We will be using the tools of Calculus of Variations both to derive Newton's Laws and easily tackle problems once seen very difficult like proving the shortest distance between two points is a straight line and finding the curve that maximizes a bead's speed.
C7431: From E to B: Electrodynamics and Relativity in Splash Fall 2019 (Nov. 16 - 17, 2019)
Did you know that the electric field and magnetic field are the same thing? We will learn that the electric field is not just some calculational trick, but a real, living entity that has its own dynamics!
We will use Einstein's relativity to show that the B-field is a relativistic phenomenon of the E-field.
C7182: Electrodynamics and Relativity: From E to B in Splash Spring 2019 (May. 04 - 05, 2019)
Did you know that the electric field and magnetic field are the same thing? We will learn that the electric field is not just some calculational trick, but a real, living entity that has its own dynamics!
We will use Einstein's relativity to show that the B-field is only a relativistic phenomenon of the E-field.
