Physics + Python – Solve basic physics problems with Python

Hi! This course is for those who want to model basic problems of physics computationally. In this course, we will use one of the most popular programming languages: Python! Python is a programming language used in different fields, such as data science, statistics, artificial intelligence, and also scientific computing. In this course, we will model high–school level problems of physics with Python using basic commands, data structures, and functions. At the end of the course, you will have a brief introduction to two third–party libraries of Python: 1–Numpy, which is primarily used for number crunching and linear algebra, and 2–Matplotlib, the most commonly used library to plot data in Python.

Each session of the course is divided into three parts:

1–Basic Python lectures:

In these lessons, you will learn how to use the basic commands, data structures and functions of Python

2–Exercises:

In these lessons, I propose exercises to be solved and explain how these exercises are supposed to be solved

3–Solution:

In these videos, I show the solution of the exercises step–by–step

Throughout this course, you’ll solve 20+ exercises to model problems of physics with Python, including:

Calculating the force

Gravitational force formula

Text manipulation with strings

Thermal expansion formulas
