Activity 1: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

Coulomb's Law - Macro Scale

Experiment with two uniformly charged spheres to discover the electrostatic force that two charges exert on each other. Observe how changing the sign and magnitude of the charges and the distance between them affects the electrostatic force. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Activity 2: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

Gravity Force Lab: Basics

See the gravitational force that two massive objects exert on each other. Discover the factors that affect gravitational attraction, and determine how adjusting these factors will change the gravitational force. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Activity 3: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 25 min

Arbitrium

You are a charged particle. As a charged particle, you are trying to meet the wires with a positive or negative charge. You must be the opposite charge to meet the wire and advance to the next level. Change yourself by bumping into other charged particles and transferring charges. There are obstacles to pass like pressing buttons, opening walls, and changing charges to complete a level.
