Physics Simulations

This simulation can be used to study the motion of two point masses with a constant vertical accelation and  any initial vertical position and velocity. It prints the values of y, v, a vs t which can be copy-pasted into Excel or LoggerPro. It also generates the 3 graphs vs time.

You can play this game by setting a non-zero reaction-time for the hunter to pull the trigger. For a given reaction time, in which direction should the hunter aim his gun, so that he will hit the monkey? 

you can also use it to find the total displacement and hence discover the vector addition formula and also see the horizontal and vertical components of two vectors,

the same object has 3 different motions in succession

The 2 blocks can have any initial horizontal position, velocity, or constant acceleration.

The 3 blocks can have any initial horizontal position, velocity, or constant acceleration, and different start times.

an object moves in a circle with constant speed baed on the inputs of total time of motion and the time period of motion. 

after how much time will N velociraptors converge at the centre of the regular polygon having side length 'a', if they are always facing the one in front and move with a constant speed 'u'?

What will be the resultant speed of the swimmer, if he has to cross the river in the shortest distance or time given that he has a fixed speed in still water and the river is flowing with a fixed speed from west to east?

Given that the rain is falling vertically downwards with some speed and you are walking from west to east horizontally with some speed, at what angle should you hold the umbrella so that you don't get wet?

Three objects whose position, velocity, and acceleration are given by 3d vector function of VPython.

2 cars approach each other. a fly flies back-and-forth between the headlights of the two cars till the separation becomes zero. output parameters are distance travelled by fly, time taken by fly, number of trips completed by fly where one complete motion from 1 car to the next counts as one trip.

a block is in equilibrium on the floor. Any number of upward and downward forces can act on the block(you need to change the code) and the simulation will calculate the corresponding normal reaction vector,

a spher is in contact with side wall. will side also exert normal rection force?

two masses m1 and m2 are hanging on either side of a massless and frictionless pulley. The values of m1 and m2 can be adjusted in the code. The output parameters of the simulation are the tension and the common acceleration of the masses.

output parameters of the simulation are postion, vx. ax vs time,static or kinetic friction force.applied horizontal  force can be set in the code,

when the simulation is run, the angle theta which the inclined plane makes with he horizontal, gradually increases till the block on the inclined plane just starts to slide,

you can set any value for initial release-height of roller-coaster and radius of loop,the loop. data table of position,velocity,acceleration is generated,

block of mass m is acted on by multiple horizontal and vertical forces. simulation calculates the block's acceleration in each case. data table of position,velocity,acceleration is generated,
