Homopolar Motor
Assuming that the current flowing in the wire is in the X-direction, the magnetic field is in the Y direction. Then, what direction is the electromagnetic force? ‘Homopolar motor’ refers to a motor operated by using … more
In a potential energy measurement experiment, why should an object be lifted slowly at a constant velocity?
In a potential energy measurement experiment, why should an object be lifted slowly at a constant velocity? When we apply a force to an object and move it in the direction of the force, we say … more
Differentiation 2
Differentiation The differentiation is to find the amount of change at a point on a graph f(x). This is like the process of finding the slope of the tangent line when you can draw a tangent … more
Force on Inclined Plane
Gravity acts on all objects. Suppose an object is placed on an inclined plane. This object is subjected to a force that slips downward by gravity. If the slope is θ, then the magnitude of this … more
Gravity Train
Like this simulation, if you drill a hole in the earth and throw it in, you can send it to the other side of the earth. This simulation ignores the effects of friction. The earth is … more
Little Prince’s Trampoline
Law of action and reaction When we apply force to an object, that object also exerts the same amount of force on us. At this time, our force is ‘action,’ and the force exerted on us … more
Pulleys with Many Wire
Movable Pulley Movable pulleys can move axes, unlike fixed pulleys. Movable pulleys have the advantage of being able to move with less force. But, the distance that I have to move is longer than the fixed … more
Pulleys with One Wire
Movable Pulley Movable pulleys can move axes, unlike fixed pulleys. Movable pulleys have the advantage of being able to move with less force. But, the distance that I have to move is longer than the fixed … more
Addition of Force
Three elements of force When a force acts on an object, the object’s motion varies depending on the Three elements of force. That is the magnitude, direction, and point of action. Therefore, when displaying a force, … more
Pascal’s Principle
Pascal’s Principle Pascal’s principle is as follows. “Suppose a closed tube filled with uncompressed fluid. Then, the pressure of this tube’s inside is the same everywhere.” For example, If you press any part of the tube … more
Projectile Motion
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
