How does an airboat move when there isn't a motor in the water? The simulation teaches the forces related to the thrust and drag on an airboat. Scholars vary the boat mass and thrust force in order to view graphs of the changing force...

Swimmers improve their times by understanding the physics of their sport. As a swimmer moves through the water, the efficiency of motion affects the resulting velocity. Through an interactive simulation, pupils change the level of motion...

For this inductance worksheet, learners answer 20 questions about magnetic fields as they relate to inductors, inertia, transistors, and the flow of current through circuits.

This interactive allows you to explore the effect that temperature and pressure have on the changes in the states of matter. You can test these variables on carbon dioxide, hydrogen and water.

This lab is designed to have students learn how to calculate the specific heat of a liquid based on the temperature changes that occur when hot water is added to the liquid.

Balance electric charges to prevent Tommy from slipping into icy water. You are presented with 4 particles, each with a charge value. Using the plus/minus scrollbar, you can change the value of the highlighted charge. Then press the play...

This lab is designed to have students learn how to calculate the specific heat of a solid based on the temperature changes that occur when a hot solid is added to cold water.

Simulation of an Atwood machine where two masses of varying densities are suspended in water using a pulley system. Adjust the densities of the masses, their positions and the water level to see how the changing gravitational, buoyant,...
