Explore the motion of an object through a vertical loop with this downloadable simulation from Open Source Physics (OSP).

Explore energy conservation and forces for a variety of roller coaster designs at with this downloadable applet from Open Source Physics (OSP).

This simulation from Open Source Physics (OSP) models the motion of an object along a curved path. The original speed and the path can be modified. Gravity, normal force, and the radius of curvature are displayed.

This simulation from Open Source Physics (OSP) models the motion of an object through an elliptical loop. The parameters of the loop and the entry speed can be modified. The normal force is displayed and plotted.

Explore energy conservation and forces for a variety of roller coaster designs at Open Source Physics (OSP). Modify designs and observe the results. Comes with classroom-ready materials.
