Sample Projects for Calculus I

Project #1: Equations of State

A sample project linking Calculus I and Chemistry 1. The calculus involved is basic curve analysis. The curves come from a current topic in the chemistry class; equations of state for gasses (van der Waal's and ideal).

Project #2: Not-so Harmonic Oscillators

For the mechanical engineers in your class. This project is a simple exploration of graphical analysis of functions. Parametric analysis and energy are thrown in for spice.
