W. Christian
Post a comment | Relations | Standards
The Sliding Down an Inclined Plane model displays an object sliding down on an incline plane. The object can be a box, a sphere, or a car. When the object reaches the bottom of the…
Swinging Atwood's Machine Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
L. Ruckle
Post a comment | Relations
The Swinging Atwood's Machine Model is an extension of the traditional Atwood's machine where one hanging mass is allowed to swing like a pendulum. One assumes that all motions for…
Relative Motion of Two Carts  [ Computer Program ]

Byline:
M. Gallis
Post a comment | Relations
The Swing Ride Model simulates a type of ride that can be found at many carnivals and amusement parks. Riders are suspended from the ends of supports. These supports rotate about an…
Simple Circular Motion Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
M. Gallis
Post a comment | Relations | Standards
The Simple Circular Motion Model explores amusement park rides like a Merry-Go-Round. The rotational speed and radial distance are controlled with sliders at the bottom of the…
Merry Mixer Ride Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
M. Gallis
Post a comment | Relations | Standards
The Merry Mixer Ride Model shows the motion of two superimposed circular motions. The main frame of the ride rotates in one direction, while a second rotation at the ends of the…
Bead on a Hyperbolic Tangent Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
T. Bensky and M. Moelter
Post a comment | Relations | Standards
The Bead on a Hyperbolic Tangent model computes the dynamics if a bead constrained to slide on a hyperbolic tangent shaped wire. The model uses an Euler algorithm to evolve the…
