Physics Applets in HTML5

This page contains links to physics applets that I and others have created to work in HTML 5. These applets will work on any browser including those used on iPads, iPhones and Android devices that support HTML 5.

These applets are inspired by the PhET applets.

Mystery Box	Newton's Second Law
Pushing a Block	Standing Wave on a String Modifying Applied Tension Modified from Andrew Duffy's Standing Wave on String. Another simulation by Andrew Duffy useful for NGPET Terminal Velocity - Balls in a Fluid
Drag Force	Centripetal Force
Reflection from a Mirror	Refraction by a transparent block $Picture of refraction ray diagram applet$
Simulations by Keith Warren, NCSU for use with NGPET Free Fall: Simulate dropping a ball with different values for g and observe the velocity and displacement graphically. Magnetic Poles: Move a magnet near other magnets to determine which magnetic pole is marked with the dot. Combining Magnets: Align multiple magnets and observe changes to the total field based on number and orientation of magnets. Circuits and Energy	Thin Lens Simulator - Cartesian System Thin Lens Simulator - Gaussian System Note: These are a slight modification of: Andrew Duffy's Original Thin Lens Simulator
Minkowski Space-Time Diagram	Special Relativity Lorentz Transforms Related sim: Wolfgang Bauer's Relativity - Twin Paradox sim ( Link to original source )
