Highlights:
A collection of 4 problems on the photon model of light, designed to help life-science students build scientific thinking skills.
Abstract:
A collection of problems to help life-science students build scientific thinking skills, including
• blending physical concepts with symbolic and graphical math;
• building physical intuition;
• reasoning from fundamental physical principles;
• building mental models of what’s happening in physical systems (mechanism).
Many have life-science relevant contexts.
Topics include molecular imaging, color, spectra, photon transitions, and fluorescence.
