Masses & Springs Description

Free mass and spring simulation Masses & Springs is a free simulation featuring a realistic mass and spring laboratory. Hang masses from springs and adjust the spring stiffness and damping. You can even slow time. Transport the lab to different planets. A chart shows the kinetic, potential, and thermal energy for each spring. Here are some key features of "Masses & Springs": · Explain the Conservation of Mechanical Energy concept using kinetic, elastic potential, and gravitational potential energy. · Use your understanding of how a spring scale works to determine the mass of an unknown object. · Find the value of g on Planet X. Requirements: · Java 1.5 or later
