Detail Page

written by Fu-Kwun Hwang
In this applet a pendulum is in a vertical position when put in a stopped car.

When the car is accelerated, it will swing with a new equilibrium position. The user can change the acceleration and the drag coefficient (assume drag force proportional to velocity put in the opposite direction).
