PhET Simulation: Ladybug Revolution

published by the Physics Education Technology Project

This is an interactive simulation on the topic of circular motion that features a ladybug rotating on a turning platform. Users can change the location of the ladybug, add a bug of larger mass, display vectors, view graphs of acceleration and velocity, and set the degree of angular velocity.

This item is part of a larger and growing collection of resources developed by the Physics Education Technology project.
