Physics 101 SE

Physics calculation software that helps students in their homework Physics 101 SE is the premier physics calculation tool, allowing you to focus on physics and not mathematical tedium.

Physics 101 SE is a tool that allows you calculate physics formulae.

With its ability to instantly solve for almost any variable in over 80 of the most commonly used physics formulas, and the ability to solve for variables within most of those formulas.

Vectors and vector calculation are regular occurrences in Physics as they are crucial in representing physical events. Vector calculation was exhausting -- until now. Physics 101 SE's vector-addition feature makes vector mathematics easier than ever before, allowing you to calculate up to eight vectors at a time and see the calculations with just a click of the mouse! Even better, the vector feature even allows you to solve for missing vectors -- simply enter the overall magnitude and angle, and select an vector for an automatic calculation.

With Motion Analysis, you can enter an object's acceleration, initial velocity and time, and Motion Analysis will instantly graph position versus time and velocity versus time for its movement. Drag your mouse over the graph, and the time, position, and/or velocity will be shown in real time corresponding to the horizontal position of the cursor.

Special relativity can be confusing at times, especially when keeping track of which figures dilate and which frames are involved. With RelativisticFX, just enter your given conditions per reference frame and at a glance you can see the transformations of velocity, length, momentum, and the time of up to three frames. Just by experimenting with this easy-to-use feature, you can get an excellent feeling for the affects of relativity!

Motion Analysis supports up to four different objects in motion, so that you can quickly compare different accelerations and velocity at a corresponding time with a single click. You can then click the "Data Tables" tab to see the various data for each object at any time you need.

Optics shows you how a beam of light refracts from one medium to another using Snell's Law. Interactively see how the beam changes by modifying the index of refraction and the incident angle, all by moving the sliders.

This simple periodic table will allow you to forgo using your periodic table to tediously add up molecular weights. This feature goes a step further and converts grams to moles and vice versa for those thermodynamic problems.

Watch as two bodies exchange heat through a common boundary. The simulation, based on Newton's law of cooling, can be used with any type of material! Additionally, you can also see the body cool or warm up to a static enviromental temperature.

These formulas are organized in sections of Kinematics, Vectors, Work, Energy, Gravitation, Center of Mass, Projectiles, Dynamics, Thermodynamics, Optics, Waves and modern physics formulas.

Since physics formulas have to be combined, substituted, derived, and integrated in infinite ways to solve physics problems, it can sometimes be difficult to figure out even how to begin solving them. With a quick glance at Physics 101 SE's formula guides, which show many of the commonly-used physics formulas and their isolated variables, you'll see new ways of approaching difficult physics problems. Simply knowing how to start working on a problem can save you large amounts of time and frustration.

Physics 101 SE even includes a handy unit converter, which will quickly convert a measurement that you enter into other common units of measurement, without the gigantic hassle of having to memorize and calculate the numerous conversion formulas by hand. You can then click on the converted measurement that you need to instantly copy it to the clipboard, so you can then paste it into one of Physics 101 SE's formulas for quick and easy calculation.

With the built-in Circuit Analysis, you can simulate working with a simple electrical circuit without having to deal with actual electrical components. Build a virtual series-parallel circuit with up to 18 resistors, with voltage sources of either polarity placed anywhere in the branches. Once the circuit is constructed, you can find the voltage, current, and power of each resistor. If desired, place ammeters into the circuit to read currents at various places. Circuit Analysis also has a resistor color band calculator to find the resistance of color-coded resistors.
