This web page is an interactive Java simulation that illustrates the correlation between simple harmonic motion and uniform circular motion. The page describes the conditions in which this is true, and shows graphically that their motion in the x direction is identical. This item is part of a collection of similar simulation-based activities designed for introductory physics students.
