Energy simulation experiments
Energy models help explain change without tracking every force separately. Compare stored and kinetic energy, identify transfers, and account for simplified losses in each model.
Open the interactive physics simulatorConcepts to investigate
- Kinetic energy
- Gravitational potential energy
- Elastic potential energy
- Energy conservation
How to use the simulator
- Choose a prepared experiment or create a scene with approved objects.
- Predict what will happen before changing a single variable.
- Run, pause, reset, inspect, and graph supported measurements.
- Compare the result with the model limitations and an independent calculation or practical measurement.
