Particle Motion On A Vertical Elliptical Loop Model
written by
Wolfgang Christian
The Particle Motion On A Vertical Elliptical Loop model simulates the dynamics of a particle sliding on a track with friction. The model displays the trajectory of the particle and the normal, friction, and gravitational force vectors. Units are chosen such that mass m=1 and acceleration of gravity g=1. In this simulation, the particle changes color and free-falls from the track if the force due to the loop points outward unless the grip option is enabled. A second window displays the normal force as a function of angle.
The Particle Motion On A Vertical Elliptical Loop model was developed using the Easy Java Simulations (EJS) modeling tool. It is distributed as a ready-to-run (compiled) Java archive. Double clicking the ejs_mech_newton_ParticleMotionOnVerticalEllipticalLoop.jar file will run the program if Java is installed. Please note that this resource requires at least version 1.5 of Java.
