Amusement Park Physics - How do physics laws affect amusement park ride design? Design your own roller coaster and experiment with bumper car collisions.
Physclips: Mechanics with Animations and Film Clips - Kinematics and dynamics are presented in multimedia, at both introductory and deeper levels. Individual video clips and animations are suitable for use by teachers, while students may use the whole package for self instruction or for reference.
Physics Articles - Discussion of various forms of rotating motion in which the Coriolis effect plays a part, such as the Foucault pendulum and inertial oscillations. Illustrated with animations.
Physics of Sound - Rigorous derivation of sound wave equations from a molecular model of an ideal diatomic gas. General solution of the wave equations. Point source radiating in a moving medium.
Rigid Bodies - Separation of motion of centre of mass and rotation about a fixed axis.
Simulations with Java - Provides several interactive physics simulations such as springs and masses, pendulums, molecules. Objects, mass, gravity, spring stiffness can be modified.
Soccer Ball Physics - Discusses shape of a soccer ball, spin effects and the motion of projectiles.
The Eöt-Wash Group - Group at the Center for Experimental Nuclear Physics and Astrophysics, University of Washington, undertaking laboratory tests of gravitational and sub-gravitational physics.
The Lagrange Points - Overview of the Lagrange points of the sun-earth-system. Links to a detailed derivation.
Three-body Problem - Personal site of Cornel I. Nicolai KA'NYA and his lifelong interest in solving the three-body problem. Also provides solutions to other problems of classical mechanics.
