Main Document

Physlet Two-Dimensional Kinematics Illustrations Package 

written by Andreu Glasmann, Wolfgang Christian, and Mario Belloni

The Physlet Two-Dimensional Kinematics Illustrations Package contains JavaScript adaptations of Physlet Illustrations from Physlet Physics Chapter 3.  Students need to interact with the Physlet, but the answers to the kinematics questions posed in the Illustration are given or are easily determined from interacting with it. Some Illustrations provide examples of physics applications while others are designed to introduce a particular kinematics concept. Typical uses of Illustrations would include reading assignments prior to class and classroom demonstrations.

The Physlet Two-Dimensional Kinematics Illustrations Package was developed using the Easy Java/JavaScript Simulations (EjsS) version 5.  Although EjsS is a Java program, it can create stand alone JavaScript programs that run in almost any PC or tablet.
