Overview
Learn to model a pendulum using Python and Jupyter Notebooks in this instructional video from the classical mechanics series. Explore Newton's second law in polar coordinates and apply it to simulate pendulum motion. Discover how to use "real" Python for modeling, as an alternative to Web VPython. Get introduced to online Python tools like Google Colab and local options such as Anaconda for running Jupyter Notebooks. Follow along to gain practical experience in applying physics concepts through programming, enhancing your understanding of classical mechanics and computational modeling techniques.
