Byline:
W. Christian
Post a comment | Relations | Standards
The Tabletop Projectile model simulates the frictionless motion of a ball shot from a tabletop by a spring-gun. The initial velocity and the table height can be set and multiple…
Slash-Dot System Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
J. Pav
Post a comment | Relations
The Slash-Dot Model simulates a massive line segment and massive point rotating about one another due to gravity in a 2-dimensional plane. The simulation tracks the obits of the line…
