Masses and Springs: Basics - Lab

Play with a mass-spring system and discover which factors affect its displacement and period. Control the mass, spring constant, and gravity. Watch the Period Trace, or measure the period using the stopwatch. Determine the value of the unknown masses or gravity on Planet X. Observe the velocity and acceleration vectors while the system is in motion. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Force Fields Trio (Elem)

Follow the Super Professor as he teaches about electric, magnetic and gravity forces. This game shows three short demonstrations of how gravitational, electric, and magnetic forces and force fields work. There is a mini-game that uses a character from that force to complete a task. You will work with the Super Professor's friends as you play games together to understand more about the LO.
