Great Circle Path – Distance Between Two GEO Coordinates
The shortest path between two points on a plane is a straight line. On the surface of a sphere, however, there are no straight lines. The shortest path between two points on the surf...

Dig a hole through the Earth
Let's suppose, just for sake of argument that you had a drill capable of plowing below where you are standing right now and grinding its way straight through the...

Projectile Motion Simulation
This simulation simulates motion of projectile fired at ground level. You can change angle, initial speed, and mass of projectile and see the resulting path. If you want to coider the air resistance...

Electricity and Magnetism Simulations

Faradays law moving magnet
Real time physics simulation showing electricity generated by moving a magnet through a coil. Faraday's Law Any change in the magnetic environment of a coil of wire will cause a voltage to be in...

Electric current and magnetic field
Real time physics simulation showing Relation between electric current and magnetic field. This simple simulation shows Relation between electric current and magnetic field.Magnetic Field Magn...

Ohm’s Law Simulation
Real time physics simulation showing Ohm's Law relatiohips. Ohm's Law defines the relatiohips between (P) power, (V) voltage, (I) current, and (R) resistance. One ohm is the resistance value through...
