Ohm's law
A picture of a circuit in which you can change the resistance and voltage. You can see the result of your adjustment on a digital voltmeter, and millimeter. Includes a statement and description of ...
Falling Parachutes and Air Resistance 1
A simulation of a mass falling under the influence of gravity while attached to a parachute.
Phun Physics
2D physics engine that provides the ability to create objects and see how they react to things such as gravity and air resistance etc.
Resistors
A java applet using several configurations of resistors in parallel, in series or the combination of both and changing the individual resistance.
Viscous Resistance
If an object moves slowly through a liquid, it will experience a viscous drag which is approximately proportional to the velocity.
Electric Resonance
Resonance in AC circuits implies a special frequency determined by the values of the resistance, capacitance and inductance.
The Physics of golf
Mechanics and dynamics as applied to golf including the different equipment and playing techniques used during the game, as well as other conditions such as wind/air resistance.
Terminal Velocity
When a falling object is subject to a resistance or drag force which increases with velocity, it will ultimately reach a maximum velocity
