Kinematics in 1D Animation with x-t, v-t and a-t graphs of a car – or via accelerating, maintaining a constant velocity, then braking. PhysicsLab Speed This program is distance, speed and acceleration. It – and Acceleration shows a brave rocket-powered skater on very smooth ice in a vacuum! You fire the rockets and give the skater a constant acceleration. Obtain readings or graphs and print-outs. Walter Motion This applet shows a car moving with constant – with constant acceleration. You can vary the values of initial position, acceleration velocity and acceleration (s-t, v-t and a-t graphs are drawn). Global View This applet draws s-t and v-t graphs. Set the initial – Horizontal Block values of displacement, velocity and acceleration then click ‘Run’. Upscale DM Set the acceleration of the car, the start button and – Harrison Motion display the corresponding v-t graph. – Animation General Physics A red dot moves at a constant velocity while a yellow dot Java Applets accelerates. when yellow catches red to observe – ‘Stop’ Kinematics Catch the s-t and v-t graphs. – Up Global View Free This applet allows students to measure free fall times – Fall and average velocities and hence determine the acceleration due to gravity.
