Potential and Kinetic Energy Fun!

Posted by Mr Mallon on November 1, 2011

Hi physics lovers! Here is the brilliant PhET simulation which is exactly what we were studying this week in both Intermediate 2 and Standard Grade physics.
Run the simulation like the real loop in lab and study the graph of potential energy and kinetic energy with and without friction.
