speed gun

Principle of Speed Gun

Doppler effect Electromagnetic waves (or sound waves) come into contact with another object while traveling; part of the wave is absorbed or reflected. A moving ball likewise absorbs or reflects some of the incoming waves. If … more

General Relativity

General Relativity of Gravity

* After setting the small object’s mass, position, initial velocity, and initial direction of movement, turn on the ‘Run’ checkbox to start the simulation. * The gravitational constant of the celestial body were assumed to be … more

How a CRT TV works

How a CRT TV works

CRT TV CRT TV is an image-receiving device that uses cathode rays. It was widely used as a TV receiver until the mid-2000s. However, it had the disadvantage of being large and heavy. Afterward, it gradually … more

Three Body Problem

Three Body Problem

x y Vx Vy * The mass and gravitational constant of the celestial body were each assumed to be ‘1’. * You can edit the position and speed of each celestial body while not running. * … more

Principle of least time (Fermat's principle)

Principle of least time (Fermat’s principle)

Why does a slightly curved path take less time than a straight path? Ants can move faster on flat stones than on rugged grass. Therefore, travel time is the shortest on slightly curved paths. This principle … more

Matter Wave and de Broglie's Atomic Model

Matter Wave and de Broglie’s Atomic Model

Light has both particle and waves properties at the same time. Likewise, de Broglie (France, 1892 – 1987) thought that such things as electrons that had so far been considered particles might possess wave nature (1932). … more

Light Refraction

Light Refraction

You can drag the path of light. Refraction is the bending of a wave caused by a change in its speed as it moves from one medium to another. This occurs because of the slow speed … more

Wave Propagation Simulation

Wave Propagation

Reset Wave In science, a wave is a phenomenon in which energy is transmitted through a medium. It is the only energy that is transmitted through the wave. The medium only vibrates but does not actually … more

Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction

Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction

You can set the movement of the magnet as you wish. Observe the electromotive force generated depending on the position and speed of the magnet. Electromagnetic induction Moving the magnet around the inductor will change the … more

Line Spectrum and Continuous Spectrum

Line Spectrum and Continuous Spectrum

A solid metal can be made by grouping several hot gaseous (monatomic) metals together. What is the difference between emission spectra in the gas (monatomic) and solid state? The simulation above is a simple example and … more

Cathode Ray Tube (CRT)

Cathode Ray Tube (CRT)

A cathode ray tube (CRT) is a device that produces cathode rays (a stream of electrons). The inside of the tube is evacuated or filled with a noble gas. When a high voltage is applied to … more

Relativity of Simultaneity

Relativity of Simultaneity

Let’s assume there is a light source in the middle of the train and sensors on both sides to detect the light. From the point of view of an observer inside the train, the two light … more
