Abstract:
The article examines the key aspects of teaching university students to simulate the trajectory of a charged particle in a magnetic field in a Mathcad environment. Interdisciplinary connections between physics, mathematics and computer science are shown for students of higher education to form a unified scientific picture of the world. Domestic and foreign publications on the use of various environments and programming languages in modeling the trajectory of a charged particle are analyzed. The necessity of using the Mathcad environment to solve the educational goals of physics teachers is substantiated. The nature of the motion of charged particles in a magnetic field is considered. A detailed algorithm has been developed for creating 2D and 3D models of the trajectory of a charged particle in a magnetic field, accompanied by drawings. Students will gain interdisciplinary skills that are highly valued by modern employers.
