The Physics Classroom: Circular & Satellite Motion: Uniform Circular Motion
Manipulate variables while exploring principles and relationships related to moving in a circle at a constant speed. Students change the radius of the circle, the speed of the object, and the mass of the object and investigate the effect...

University of Colorado: Ph Et Interactive Simulations: The Ramp
Which object takes more energy to push up a ramp: a file cabinet, a refrigerator, a piano, or a sleepy dog? Find out in this ramp simulation when you change the angle of the incline, change the objects, or change the friction on the ramp.

Texas Gateway: Work Energy Theorem
Using diagrams, illustrations, and relevant data, students will calculate the net work done on an object, the change in an object's velocity, and the change in an object's kinetic energy.

Atoms in Motion: Molecular Dynamics
These programs are classical 2-dimensional molecular dynamics simulations. Such simulations compute the motions of atoms by summing (integrating) all of the forces that the atoms exert on each other. These forces arise from changes in...
