This PhysLet displays an animation of three balls thrown into the air. The simulation shows each of the balls' path and either the magnitude of the velocity or the X or Y velocity component.
Several conceptual questions focusing on the illustrated motion are provided.
This is part of a large collection of Physlet-based (Physics Java Applet) illustrations and tutorials covering introductory physics.
