How to use the simulation Drag the ball with your mouse to free fall it in the air. Drag your mouse on the cliff to observe the parabolic motion. You can change the horizontal speed by … more
* Please refer to the text below for how to make a graph. Free fall motion If you hold the ball in your hand and release it, it will fall. In the absence of air resistance, … more
Record of movements The motion of an object can be more easily understood by graphing it. In the time-distance graph, the slope is equal to the velocity. The average velocity that an object has moved over … more
Projectile Motion When you throw an object, the object falls with a certain curve. The object performs a parabolic motion. This is a motion on a two-dimensional plane, not a straight line. To understand this movement, … more
Motion of changing speed When a force of a certain size and direction acts on an object, the object moves at a constant rate of speed. These movements are easy to find around us. For example, … more
