PHYS 172: Modern Mechanics, Laboratory Teaching Assistant
Undergraduate course, Purdue University, Physics Department, 2018
Students in this course use vPython to model 3-D graphical simulations of mechanical phenomena. My role as a teaching assistant was to help students debug their code, answer conceptual doubts, and grade lab assignments.
Topics: Fundamental interactions between atoms to describe Newtonian mechanics, conservation laws, energy quantization, entropy, the kinetic theory of gases, and related topics in mechanics and thermodynamics.
