Ultiphyz for the TI-83 and TI-83 Plus Programed by Evan Arnold Email me at kramer1197@aol.com for comments or questions or ways to add to it. This program will help you with your first four chapters of your Physics class. Very good program for kids just going into physics and others. Pretty much everything is self explanatory, but you do need to listen in your physics class to figure out how to do everything and gain a basic knowledge. Once you know a little bit then you can use these programs to their fullest extent. Solves for Vectors, Kinematics, Projectiles, and Dynamics. VECTORS: First off, I must say that the original code to this is not mine (its someone elses..so if this is your prog. then im givin you credit for this..its nice). I felt it was a solid program so all i did was add some other stuff to it and alter it a little bit. This section is pretty self explanatory in itself. It doesnt however show any work, but does solve for upto 9 vectors at a time. It shows X and Y coordiantes of each vector..closest thing to actual work. This program displays everything you will need: Resultant info, and Equilibriant info. KINEMATICS: This one is my favorite of all. It uses the 3 major equations of kinematics, and solves for initial velocity, final velocity, acceleration, time, and distance. You can leave upto 2 of them blank except the 2 blank cannot be Init. Velocity and Acceleration..but with out those you cant solve anything. The beauty of this program is that you dont have to figure out which equations you have to use...it figures that out for ya, and shows the work, in case your teacher wants you to show it. PROJECTILES: This sub-prog is the weakest of all of mine, kind of a fast put together program. Solves for basic stuff for projectiles. Not very trust worthy either i havent fully checked it out cause i plan on overhauling it pretty soon. That wil be part of my 2.0 update hopefully coming out before school is out. DYNAMICS: Um...what can i say this one was a doozy. This is my largest program by far. This program will prolly be of the greatest help and save you the most time. It shows all of the work for every type of scenario that i encountered in that section of my textbook. 1. STILL OBJ. - Solves for a still object. 2. MOVING OBJ. - Solves for a moving object (push or pull) 3. 2 OBJS. F. SUR. - Solves for 2 objects connected (1 on a flat surface and the other suspended in air) 4. INCLINED PLANE - Solves for an inclined plane (1 object only or 1 object on an inclined plane and the other suspended in air) 5. 2 OBJS. SUSP. - Solves for 2 connected objects suspended in air. However..the work that it does show, you will not need to show it all, it all depends on what kind of info you are given. Part of it you will need to solve for yourself before you put it into the equations. IMPORTANT ...on any part of this program where it prompts you for up or down? Put an "x" in the one you want and a "0" in the one you dont. Make sure you do this or your answers may not come out right. Also when the program asks for the mass of an object: the (H)= the heavier object and the (L)= the lighter object. Well thas about it. Im sure you will find that this program is very useful to you...i am aware of the fact that it is very large so you might just want to load on each individual program as you go. To run the program just install it to your graphing calc...and run the Physicz prog. Thats about it...remember to look for my next update of Ver 2.0. Feel free to distribute this program to anyone, i guess you can alter it if you really want to (there is no stopping you) but i must warn you that it could be futile to your program, and also if you would, give the credit to me, i worked a long time to make this program. If you find some ways to make it smaller or good add ons, please send them to me. Thanx..peace out, Evan Arnold
