Johnson, Porter W. – American Journal of Physics, 1972
Descriptors: College Science, Computer Assisted Instruction, Instructional Materials, Mechanics (Physics)

Miller, B. J. – American Journal of Physics, 1974
Discusses the use of a simple computer exercise to derive a general law for simple pendulum phenomena with square-law damping. Indicates that less mathematical skills are requires in the computer treatment than in the analytical treatment.

Theimer, O.; Theimer, M. M. – American Journal of Physics, 1978
Computes various thermodynamics and statistical quantities of all electrically charged particles in a small plasma to analyze: (1) How many particles are required for computer stimulation of a macroscopic plasma? (2) To find out if this method is accurate and fast enough to become a good tool of statistical plasma mechanics. (GA)

Smith, P. A.; And Others – American Journal of Physics, 1981
Describes a procedure for determining the coefficient of restitution using a microcomputer which collects and sends data to a large computer where analysis is done and graphical output is generated. The data collection hardware and software are described, and results are illustrated. (Author/SK)

Anderson, Owen T.; Greenwood, Stephen R. – American Journal of Physics, 1974
An analog computer program to find and display the Fourier transform of some real, even functions is described. Oscilloscope traces are shown for Fourier transforms of a rectangular pulse, a Gaussian, a cosine wave, and a delayed narrow pulse. Instructional uses of the program are discussed briefly. (DT)
