Stowe, Lawrence G. – Physics Teacher, 1995
Describes the graphing calculator as a new graphical approach to standard physics problems. Presents a collision problem to illustrate its use. (JRH)
Descriptors: Energy, Graphing Calculators, Kinetics, Motion

Stump, Daniel R. – Physics Teacher, 1995
Presents four examples of physics problems that can be solved with a graphing calculator. Problems included deal with motion, harmonic oscillations, sound waves, and blackbody radiation. (JRH)
Descriptors: Acoustics, Graphing Calculators, Graphs, Light

Demana, Franklin; Waits, Bert K. – Mathematics Teacher, 1993
Discusses solutions to real-world linear particle-motion problems using graphing calculators to simulate the motion and traditional analytic methods of calculus. Applications include (1) changing circular or curvilinear motion into linear motion and (2) linear particle accelerators in physics. (MDH)
