Free fall and projectile motion

written by Fu-Kwun Hwang

Available Languages: English, Chinese

This EJS simulation allows the user to simulate free fall relative to two inertial frames.

The simulation was created using the Easy Java Simulations (Ejs) modeling tool. It is distributed as a ready-to-run (compiled) Java archive. Double clicking the ejs_ntnu_fkh_projectileNfreefall.jar file will run the program if Java is installed.

Please note that this resource requires at least version 1.5 of Java (JRE).
