An interactive simulation by PhET to explore the effects of forces and motion on different objects, including adjusting friction levels.
Use your smarts about gravity, force, and motion to build rovers to travel over Mars!
You are using force to produce motion. The Exploratorium has lots of activities to help you investigate how the principles of force and motion work. Build a fan cart, a momentum machine, or a whack-a-stack!
Forces and Motion: Basics - PhET Interactive Simulations
Explore the interactive science learning platform, Force and Motion, by Amplify for an engaging educational experience.
Predict, qualitatively, how an external force will affect the speed and direction of an object's motion. Explain the effects with the help of a free body diagram. Use free body diagrams to draw position, velocity, acceleration and force graphs and vice versa.
