Presents the McCollough effect, in which the human visual system imposes color on a black and white grating. The effect is produced when an S initially studies a grating of black stripes interspersed with 2 colors and then studies figures comprised of white and black stripes on a black and white grating of identical orientation. This results in an...
This new version now contains answers to all the over 600 stimulating
questions. Walker covers the entirety of naked-eye physics by exploring
problems of the everyday world. He focuses on the flight of Frisbees,
sounds of thunder, rainbows, sand dunes, soap bubbles, etc., and uses
such familiar objects as rubber bands, eggs, tea pots, and Coke bott...
For both engineering physics and life science physics sequences, machine‐graded problem sets derived from textbook problems drastically reduce the grading time while substantially increasing the student effort outside of class. With simple modifications, the problem sets can be reused each time a course is offered. Such problem set grading has some...
The scattering of light by spherical drops and the theory of rainbows are reviewed in detail to predict the angular positions of rainbows from single drops. The angular positions of the first 13 rainbows of water, observed from a drop suspended in a student spectrometer, were compared to these theoretical positions. Since the rainbows were dependen...
Analysis of a forward karate punch is made as an example of collision mechanics. The energy lost to deformation of an opponent is evaluated, and the deformation is shown to be maximized if contact is made when the fist has the greatest speed. In karate fighting the maximum deformation is obtained by focusing a punch to terminate several centimeters...
Hurry! Hurry! Come one, come all. Meet a man who can pull two railroad passenger cars with his teeth and a real-life human cannon ball. Come face to face with a dead rattlesnake that still bites. And unlock the secrets to the magician's bodiless head.
