We all know that the physical properties and processes are described in terms of quantities such as mass, time, energy, momentum, Area, etc. And all these quantities are measured in units. So, we can say that a physical quantity describes what you are going to measure, whereas a unit describes how much is that quantity. […]

Introduction Scilab is very powerful, free, and open-source software that is used worldwide by people for scientific engineering and numerical calculations. Scilab was first created in 1990 by researchers from the National Institute for Research in Digital Science and Technology, Inria. It is situated in France. For the graphical user interface, Scilab used Tcl/Tk for versions

Scilab is one of the programming languages which allows manipulating variables in a very dynamic way. In this section, we will see how to create a real variable in Scilab, what elementary mathematical functions can be applied to a real variable, what may be the size of the name of variables, how to comment on

After double-clicking the Scilab Icon to launch Scilab, a Scilab environment consisting of several docked windows is opened (as shown in the figure below). The Workspace in Scilab consists of several windows. They are mainly: Console Window In the console window, you can perform various simple numerical calculations. For example, let you have two variables

Theory: Before writing the program let’s have a look at the interference of waves. What is Interference of Waves? In physics, interference is a phenomenon in which two waves superimpose to form a resultant wave of greater, lower, or the same amplitude. What is the Principle of Superposition of Waves? The principle of superposition of

Theory: Before writing the program let’s have a look at the formation of Beats. When two waves having equal amplitude but slightly different frequencies, are traveling in the same direction and arrive at a particular point simultaneously, then alternate maxima and minima are formed. This phenomenon is called the formation of beats. Let’s have two
