The Graphs and Tracks Model allows instructors to create custom models of a ball rolling on a track with a variable shape. This EJS model was inspired by the Graphs and Tracks…
Baton Orbit Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
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,…
Javelin Dynamics Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
P. Wall
Post a comment | Relations
The Javelin Dynamics Model simulates the throw of a javelin in a vertical plane. The user can change the initial velocity, angle of the javelin (theta), angle of the velocity vector…
Stick Falling from Table Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
W. Christian
Post a comment | Relations
The Stick Falling from Table Model shows the translational and rotational motion of a stick falling from a table.  The normal and gravitational force vectors and the center of mass…
Bungee Jumping Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
M. Gallis
Post a comment | Relations
In the Bungee Jumping Model, a bungee jumper is dropped from a tower with a fixed length of bungee cord. The simulation operator can control the height of the tower, the stiffness of…
Pirate Ship Ride Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
M. Gallis
Post a comment | Relations
The Pirate Ship Ride Model was originally inspired by the Pirate Ride at Hershey Park. The "ship" part of the ride has a center of mass that lies 14 m from the pivot point…
Swing Ride Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
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…
Free Fall Ride Model  [ Computer Program ]
  
Match Score:
100
Byline:
M. Gallis
Post a comment | Relations
The Free Fall Ride Model allows a user to design a ride by adjusting the height versus time graph. The apparant weight of the rider arises from the ever present acceleration of…
