Activity 1: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

Masses and Springs - Energy

Hang a mass on a spring to explore the conservation of energy. Experiment with mass, spring constant, gravity, and damping, and see the energy of the system graphed in real-time. View the displacement, natural length, and equilibrium position. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Activity 2: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

Masses and Springs - Intro

Explore the motion and period of an oscillating mass on a spring. Customize the mass, spring constant, or natural length, and take your experiment to other planets. Design experiments and collect data with the ruler or stopwatch. Simultaneously experiment with two mass-spring systems to make qualitative comparisons. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.
