Physics, Art, and Programming Ben Hoffman

Here are some other cool computer aided graphics. All of these are directly related to math and most of them were inspired by or related to physics principles.

This picture/equation was actually inspired by the problems that I was having with wild orbiting around negative charges when I was programming electric field generators. It looks like this raw:

This started as an attempt to graph different trajectories on top of one another. Its just a set of altering parabolas that follow a linear/sinusoidal path. It looks like this raw:

This picture originally had nothing to do with physics directly but after the fact: If two identically charged particles were moving in an increasing magnetic field, and one had initial velocity in the direction parallel to that field, this could be an exact representation of what the path of a line connecting them would look like!

If the entire system above were moving left at a constant speed it would look like this.

 

Cool

I'm done
