NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "Rampage" - I...It...Itera...Iteration

In "Rampage," a suspect enters the FBI Bullpen and moves about, apparently shooting people at random. Charlie examines a diagram of the killer's path through the Bullpen and suggests it might resemble Brownian motion. In this activity, students first model this motion with ten iterations by hand...

NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "Mind Games" - Walkabout

In "Mind Games," Charlie uses the Fokker-Planck equation to predict the movement of illegal immigrants. The equation is used to predict the likely movement of something under the influence of external forces. It was originally developed to study Brownian motion, the apparently random movement of ...

NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "Mind Games" - Right or Wrong

In "Mind Games," a psychic shocks Charlie by incorrectly guessing the color (black or red) of 25 cards in a row. As Larry says, "the probability of getting them all wrong is the same as getting them all right." This activity applies the binomial theorem to the probability of correctly guessing a ...
