This lab was designed to have students test the factors that affect the acceleration due to gravity on a planet. Students will be able to modify the planet and then drop an object to determine the acceleration on the planet. As the object drops, it will display a velocity vs. time graph and students will find the slope of this graph to find the acceleration due to gravity on the planet.

This lab was designed to have students practice the Atwood lab prior to doing it for real. Students can adjust the masses and the planet and then collect position vs. time data and velocity vs. time data. Students can see how the acceleration of system changes with changes in ∆m and with changes in total mass.

Ball dropping in a viscous fluid
Rating

Note that the number in parentheses beside each fluid or each ball material is the specific gravity. The specific gravity is the ratio of the density of that material to the density of water. Hence, the specific gravity of water is 1. The specific gravity of olive oil being 0.92 means that olive oil has a density that is 92% of that of water. Aluminum, on the other hand, has a density of 2.7 times that of water.

Viscosities:

Here are the values the simulation has for the viscosities - note how different they are. The units are pascal seconds (Pa s).

Water: 0.001

Olive oil: 0.08

Glycerol: 1.4

And the mythical fluid “None” has a viscosity of zero and a density of zero. Just don’t tell Aristotle.

The simulation shows a ballistics cart. If the cart is at rest on a horizontal surface, it will shoot a ball straight up in the air, and catch the ball again. What if, as in this simulation, the cart is traveling at a constant velocity horizontally, instead? Will the ball land ahead of the cart, in the cart, or behind the cart? Note that the cart fires the ball straight up, with respect to the cart, when the middle of the cart passes the small vertical trigger on the track.
Use the buttons to select the different modes (whether there is a tunnel or not, and whether to show the velocity vectors).

In this simulation, you can investigate the force that a magnetic field exerts on a charged particle. This force has some things in common with the force an electric field exerts on a charged particle, but there are also key differences between them. One thing that is apparent in the simulation is that one possible outcome of a magnetic field applying a force on a charged particle is that the particle experiences uniform circular motion, so exploring the magnetic force will also give you a chance to review circular motion concepts.

This lab is designed to have students find the relationships that affect the force required to keep an object moving in a circle. Students will be able to modify the mass of the object, the speed of the object and the size of the circle the object is moving in. Graphs for force vs. mass, force vs. radius and force vs. speed can be constructed.

This lab is designed to have students find the relationships that affect the maximum speed a car can go around a turn. Students will be able to modify the tires, road surface, the mass of the car, radius of the turn and the initial speed of the car. Graphs of maximum speed vs. radius for difference surfaces could be made.

This lab/learning activity is designed to introduce students to some of the basic terms with circular motion. They will be introduced to rpm, frequency, period, angular frequency, speed and velocity. It is hoped that students will be able to work with these quantities without resorting to rote memorization of formulas after finishing this activity.

On the left is a representation of a 4 m x 4 m space in which there is a uniform field directed down. If you choose a ball, then the field is a gravitational field. If you use a charge, the field is an electric field. On the right is a graph. You can plot six different things on the vertical axis, as a function of either x or y.

The simulation shows five different motions in which objects experience constant acceleration, starting from rest. Although each motion is different, the underlying physics is the same. What features of the simulation reinforce the idea that the physics is the same?
