Question

Open the simulation here: http://phet.colorado.edu/sims/motion-series/forces-and-motion_en.jnlp and click run.

1.       Run the simulation and explain how the forces shown in the simulation, act differently according to various situations. ( Just a brief description of different forces, when friction, applied forces etc.are changed.)

2.       Draw a total force graph for one of the situations with fixed variables.

a.       Draw what the position, velocity and time graphs might look like for the above situation. Explain how you used the force graph to develop the these graphs.

b.       Use Forces and Motion simulation to test your predictions and use a different color to modify your predictions for force graph.

Explanation / Answer

Which software to use to run the simulation file?
