Stop wasting energy searching for physics resources, this comprehensive collection of worksheets has you covered. Starting with introductions to the scientific method, dimensional analysis, and graphing data, these skills practice...

In this numerical analysis activity, students plot functions, predict the number of iterations, and identify the convergence criteria of the function. This two-page activity contains eight problems.

In this introduction to root finding worksheet, students write equations to solve distance problems. They explore the bisection method of Bolzano. This four-page worksheet contains approximately ten problems.

In this math worksheet, learners practice analyzing root finding algorithms, Newton-Raphson and secant. They use the examples to master the concepts.

In this math worksheet, students examine the concepts of generalizing root-finding algorithms and fixed point iteration. They also practice using the Fixed Point Theorem.

In this root-finding worksheet, students rank numbers in asymptotic order. They identify and discuss the roots of the original function. This four-page worksheet contains approximately 10 problems.

This textbook takes the learner from the basic definition of slope through derivatives, integrals, and vector multivariable calculus. Each section is composed primarily of examples, with theoretical introductions and explanations in...

The inflection point, the point where the second derivative is zero, is the focus of a video  that works through a problem where it is not obvious to see the roots of a function. The solution to the problem requires using Newton's method...

Predict the future of education through a mathematical analysis. Using a project-based learning strategy, classes examine the pattern of student-to-teacher ratios over a period of years. Provided with the relevant data, learners create a...

How many nurses does it take to support one doctor? A project-based activity asks learners to analyze state data to answer this question. Classes create polynomial functions from the data of doctors and nurses over a seven-year period....
