Collision between two pendulums

written by Fu-Kwun Hwang

This EJS model allows the user to simulate a collision between two pendulums. The user can change the initial angle and the mass of one of the pendulums. The simulation shows the velocity and the tension for each of the pendulums.

This Model 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_pendulum2m.jar file will run the program if a Java runtime is installed.

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