Experimental physics The refractive index of water Introduction In this investigation, you will be observing the apparent positions coins underwater in order to measure the refractive index of water. After this, you will be observing the refraction of light in water. The investigation is designed to give you an understanding of: Snell’s law Ray tracing to explain observations Theory The following information may be useful. […]

Module Information Title of module: Personal and Professional Development Module code: ULMS864 Credit value: 15 Semester in which the module is taught: Semester 1 Module Aims and Learning Outcomes This module aims to develop students’ self-awareness in relation to their values, behaviours, motivations, and development of their skills in leadership and management. It enables reflection on current and future skill and knowledge needs, and supports personal and career development planning. The module aims to develop students as reflective management practitioners within their own context. Specific skills development activities are supported through an action learning that encourages students to examine real management problems or issues using their own experiences and case study material. The module focuses on the skills and knowledge required by effective leaders and managers in contemporary organisations. Over […]

COM60904 Innovative Media April 2025 Interactive Immersive Animation Project Title: The Sea’s Silent Song Theme: Digital Poem Slide #: 1 USER SEES MESSAGE OF THE EXPERIENCE A poster featuring stylized 2D graphics that visually interpret the theme Digital Poem. The title “The Sea’s Silent Song” is prominently displayed, surrounded by imagery of a tranquil but sorrowful sea. The composition invites reflection. A meditative encounter with a digital sea, calling attention to its quiet suffering. This one-scene poem becomes a digital offering of reflection—an emotional and sensory moment that blends storytelling with presence. ON-SCREEN TEXT GRAPHICS & ASSETS [The Poem] The sea is bleeding, No, it is not red, But clouded with silence And stories left unsaid— A song […]
with no modifications, and produce a plot showing how the number of human and zombie agents changes over time. (2 marks) (b) Describe how the environment is represented in the model, including how agent movement, sensing, and interaction have been implemented in the starter model.
COURSEWORK REASSESSMENT: QUESTION 2 Question 2: Agent-based Modelling — The Zombie Apocalypse: Zombie Edition There are many examples of infection spreading in both nature and fiction, although none are quite so agressive as zombies. In this coursework question, we will be using a simple ABM representing an SI infection spread model where the infected agents (zombies) actively try to infect the susceptible agents (humans). We make the following assumptions: (A1) A human bitten by a zombie becomes a zombie. (A2) If a human is within range of a zombie then the zombie will attack and infect them. (A3) Zombies have perfect sensing, but humans have erroneous sensing. (A4) Humans and zombies move with the same speed. (A5) A human will stay still if they sense a zombie nearby, otherwise they will move randomly. (A6) Zombies have a greater sensing radius than humans. (A7) The more a zombie moves, the more energy it expends, and the more likely it will die. The overall aim is to answer the following questions: • How many people will be turned into zombies and how fast will this occur? • Which pursuit strategies lead to the extinction of humans? You have been given the following three Python files: • ZombieModel.py : This contains the ZombieWorld model class and some helper functions for calcu- lating the number of humans, zombies and dead agents. The ZombieWorld class has three methods: init , step and make agents. Your answers should only require you to edit the init method. • ZombieAgent .py : This contains the Agent class. The Agent class has four types of methods: general agent class methods, human specific methods, zombie specific methods and movement helper methods. Your answers should only require you to edit the zombie specific methods, or write new methods. • ZombieApp.py : This contains the code used to create the simulation visualisation. You can run it using solara […]

Critical Analysis 2 (Weeks 6-7) Read the following interaction between Jess, Maike, and Peter. Then analyse the interaction in terms of the relevant course content covered in Weeks 6 and 7. Make sure that you support your analysis with the required course readings. 1 JES: you won’t believe what happened [today. 2 MAI: [wha::t? 3 JES: Jimmy was so:: la:te for our dance rehearsal. 4 (0.5) 5 JES: the team waited for over thi::rty minutes. 6 PET: m::.

Explain why your proposition is equivalent to the one about clubs above. (b) Prove the proposition about graphs that you stated in the previous part. (Hint: in order to build intuition, it might help to draw a graph from your proposition with n = 9.)
Homework 5 Reminders • A graph (with no other descriptors) means a graph with no edge weights or edge directions. We will say weighted graph or directed graph if we wish to discuss a graph that does have these (and you should do the same in your answers). • The graph Cn is the cycle on n nodes. The graph Kn is the clique on […]

Write Up Instructions Submit your completed homework to Brightspace electronically in PDF format. Any submissions that are not a PDF or not a legible PDF will not receive credit. We need to be able to read your submission to be able to grade your work. Your write-up should contain enough information from the problem so that a reader doesn’t need to return to the text to know what the problem is (it is a good habit to rewrite each problem prior to solving it). There is no general rule for how much information from the problem to include, but it should be possible to read your homework and ascertain what the problem was and what your solution is accomplishing. When writing up the solution, you may hand write the solutions and submit a scanned PDF copy. If you hand write your solutions, make sure that […]
