This simulation shows the motion of an object moving with constant velocity. The user can perform measurements on the simulation to compute the velocity. Options are available to display the position of the object or show a motion diagram displaying ghost images of the object.
This is part of a large collection of Physlet-based illustrations and tutorials covering introductory physics.
