This program contains a PHYSICS tutorial which presents the physical
properties ( Mass, charge, time, etc. ) in a graphic chart analogous
to the chemistry periodic table. That is, the properties are arranged
so that the relationships between the properties can be easily seen.
Relativisticly correct formulas can be obtained directly from the chart.
Property names are "buttons", which when "clicked" on, lists physical
and historical data on the property.
This program will provide users with a clear overview of physics in a
very short time. It will provide technicians, engineers, chemists and
anyone interested in science with a far better understanding of physics.
===============================================================================
The PHYSICSX.EXE file is a 200K self-extracting archive which contains the
following programs:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHART .CRD A file containing a chart of physics properties.
EXPLAIN .CRD A file which explains the physics property chart.
PHYSICS .CRD A tutorial on physics.
PROPERTY.CRD A file containing descriptions of various properties.
CARDS .SYN A system configuration file.
HELPBOX .HLP A context sensitive help file.
PHYSICS1.PCT A graphic file.
PHYSICS2.PCT Another graphic file.
PHYSICS .EXE The main program.
PHYSICS .COM A EGA graphics driver. ( Works with VGA also. )
If you need another driver, let me know.
MATRIX .com A mouse driver.
===============================================================================
To use the program.
1. Copy the PHYSICSX.exe file to the desired directory.
2. Type PHYSICSX <RETURN> to unarchive the files.
The unarchived files require about 999K of disk space.
3. Type PHYSICS <RETURN> to run the program.
4. MOUSE to the desired PROPERTY or FUNCTION and CLICK.
If you have no mouse, TAB and CURSOR to the desired function
and press RETURN. Press ALT to enter the menu.
5. Select PREVIOUS LINKED CARD from the menu or press <CONTROL Q>
to return to the main chart when running the program.
6. Press F1 for help at any time.
7. Don't rename the files as some are linked togeather.
===============================================================================
This program is NOT public domain. It is SHAREWARE. If you like and benefit
from the program, you are expected to pay.
If you like the program, give others a copy to try. If you like or don't
like it, call, write or FAX me your criticisms and suggestions.
===============================================================================
I did not do a good job on the PROPERTY data but as soon as I free up
some time from filling out government forms, I will clean up, add to
and improve on the property data. I did not password protect this file so
you are free to work on it yourself. If you put togeather a good data file,
please send me a copy.
===============================================================================
I will expand this program to cover specifics of electronics, cosmology,
engineering, etc. if this program is well received.
