Physics

A satellite on its orbit around the earth.

• law of gravity
• orbits of celestial bodies

Object Oriented Programming

Several satellites orbit earth. They are forced into orbit by the gravity of the earth.

• physical modeling with vector calculation
• object oriented programming of the celestial bodies: class, instance, object attribute, object method

Chemistry Physics

An aqueous solution with several chemical substances. Chemical reactions continuously change the concentration of substances. This results in oscillating behavior.

• stoichiometric reaction equations
• physical modeling

Geometry

Geometric transformations used in graphics programming. Coordinate transformations affect drawing commands and change the coordinates used in drawing commands.

• geometric transfomations
• translation, rotation, scaling, point reflection, axis reflection
