Kinetic City
Excellent, very multimedia orientated site (both sound and colour) . Lots of fun scientific ideas suitable for a younger audience.
Evaporation
Ordinary evaporation is a surface phenomenon - some molecules have enough kinetic energy to escape.
Gas molecule simulation
An interactive simulation modelling particles in a gas to demonstrate the kinetic theory of gases.
Newton's Second Law With Friction
Experiment to show how the mass of a body and/or force on a body can affect its kinetic energy.
Energy
The site gives details of the different forms of energy ( Light, Heat, Sound, Chemical, Kinetic, Potential, Nuclear) and their sources.
Diffusion
Definition and links to related information. Diffusion refers to the process by which molecules intermingle as a result of their kinetic energy of random motion.
Simple pendulum
A java animation that shows a pendulum moving with plots for kinetic and potential energy. Mass, length, gravity and period can be adjusted
Johann Bernoulli
Johann Bernoulli (1667 - 1748) made important contributions to mechanics with his work on kinetic energy.
Saturated vapour pressure and boiling point
Uses kinetic theory to explain the boiling point of water and how it can vary.
