 | Mouse in Motion: explore the relationship between motion
and the graphs of motion. |
| Forces of Nature:
(FBD's)
try your hand at drawing free body diagrams for
various scenarios. |
| The Falling Apple:
look for relationships between the time an object
is accelerating and the distance that it will fall. |
| Gravity:
Investigate how the force of gravity depends on the mass of two
objects as the distance that separates them. |
| Projectile Motion:
you control the speed, angle and mass of a cannon
ball. See how the range is affected by these variables, as well as the
air resistance. |
| Circuit Simulator:
Build and simulate any circuit you want with this great applet from
Paul Falstad. |

Java Applets
for Teaching
Introductory Physics
|
| Ideal Gas Laws
investigate the relationships between pressure,
volume, temperature and moles of a gas. Requires analog measurement
skills |
| Phase Diagrams:
This applet will allow you to determine the phase
of an unknown substance at any pressure and temperature. From this
information you can construct a phase diagram. |
| Chemical Elements:
Practice representing chemical elements by their
Chemical symbol. |
| Making Scientific
Measurements: a measurement simulation to help
teach students how to make accurate and appropriate analog measurements |
| Approximation
of Absolute Zero: a balloon will shrink
when the air inside gets colder. Use this to predict absolute
zero |
