Newton's Cradle

Newton’s Cradle

Newton’s cradle Newton’s cradle consists of five iron balls, each hanging on two threads to prevent the ball from spinning. Originally Newton’s cradle was created to demonstrate Newton’s third law. If you collide a ball from one side, the exact … more

Conservation of Mechanical Energy

Mechanical Energy Conversion 2

Mechanical energy As the roller coaster descends from a high place, the height decreases, and the speed increases, so the potential energy decreases, and the kinetic energy increases. Therefore, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy while the roller coaster … more

Transmitting Electricity at High Voltages

Transmitting Electricity at High Voltages

Description of the simulation You can compare the two cases with each other. The power plant produced is assumed to be \( 22,000V \times 1A = 22,000W \). You can change the voltage and resistance of the transmission line respectively. … more

Where did the droplet's energy go? (The second law of thermodynamics and irreversible phenomena)

Where did the droplet’s energy go? (The second law of thermodynamics and irreversible phenomena)

* In this simulation, the attraction between particles is not considered. Where did the droplet’s energy go? Let’s think about the free fall of a water drop. From a macro perspective, falling water droplets change position over time. In this … more

Where did the pendulum's energy go? (The second law of thermodynamics and irreversible phenomena)

Where did the pendulum’s energy go? (The second law of thermodynamics and irreversible phenomena)

Where did the pendulum’s energy go? A pendulum that vibrates in the air continues to collide with air molecules in the process of vibrating. Air molecules get their energy from the pendulum. In this process, Air molecules increase their speed. … more
