Describes a simulated experiment in which a ship's position is determined by the Doppler principle. The formulas derived for the real satellite system are given. (CC)

If physicists don't break away from their presently self-imposed restraints, others will take over as scientific generalist. (Author/DF)

A study conducted in nine schools to determine the freedom of choice in electing or not electing physics. In five of the nine schools the physics student group indicated a freedom of choice that was significantly lower than that indicated by the non-physics group. The group of physics students included a large number of students who did not elect…

Discusses the charge independence, wavefunctions, magnetic moments, and high-energy scattering of hadrons on the basis of group theory and nonrelativistic quark model with mass spectrum calculated by first-order perturbation theory. The presentation is explainable to advanced undergraduate students. (CC)

Informs about the availability of three sets of computer-oriented curriculum materials which are used to discuss problems in geometric optics, mechanics, and wave motion, respectively. Included is the publisher's address. (CC)

Contains a description of an open-ended laboratory physics course for college freshmen and sophomores planning to become elementary school teachers. (CP)
