Byline:
S. Mohammed
Post a comment | Relations
The Tilt Maze Game Model is set on a plane that can be tilted to make the ball roll due to gravity. The plane can be tilted up, down, to the left and to the right. By tilting the…

This is a set of handouts, a presentation, and videos that one can use for a workshop to teach others how to use Tracker. The resources may also be adapted for students to learn…
Tracking the Coriolis Force  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
A. Cox
Post a comment | Relations
Tracking the Coriolis Force uses the Tracker video analysis tool to model the motion of a ball rolling with constant velocity on a rotating merry-go-round. Video includes the motion…
Baton Orbit Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:

Byline:
J. Barrick
Post a comment | Relations
Baton Orbit Model shows the trajectory of a baton-like object orbiting under the influence of a 1/r^2 force. This model was motivated by the tumbling motion of one of Saturn’s moons,…
