YP Electric Field simulates up to 26 dot charges (located in the same planer) and draws the lines of power, the equipotential lines and the electric sphere vectors in the area surrounding the electric charges. The user tin move the charges and chang
Science - YP Vernier 1.0 By Yves Pelletier
With YP Vernier, it is loose to read how to function a vernier to beat length with great precision. YP Vernier simulates a vernier caliper on the screen. Using a roll bar, the user moves the movable natter, and the corresponding numerical assess is displayed on the screen. The program bum also be used in "quiz mode": the movable natter is placed at a random position, and the user try to see the corresponding beat. |

YP Slider Crank simulates the gesture of a piston activated by a slider crank mechanism. The crank is in uniform rotational gesture (incessant angular velocity), causing the piston to locomote with a variable acceleration. Relative lengths of the crank arm
YP Planetary Gear is designed to help teachers and students when they analyze the working of a erratic gear string. (this software is not related in any way with astronomy). A erratic gear string is a mechanism consisting of an assembly of meshed
YP Shadow simulates a light seed projecting the shadow of an opaque body on a sieve. Using the mouse, it is slowly to modify the attitude and the size of the light seed, the attitude and the size of the opaque body, and the attitude of the screen
YP Waves simulates up to 3 traveling sine waves simultaneously. It is easygoing to shift the amplitude, wavelength, velocity and phase constant of each wave. This program is perfect to teach waves characteristics (amplitude, wavelength, etc.), the super
YP Rectilinear Motion is targeted toward physics teachers and physics students. It allows the user to plot a graph of velocity as a role of time with unproblematic mouse clicks. The program uses this graph to chassis a graph of place vs time, and a gr
YP Collisions simulates a two-dimensional collision between two particles. The user chooses the stack, the initial velocity (magnitude and counseling), and the coefficient of redress. An invigoration shows the motions of the particles before and afte
YP Projectiles is a projectile motion simulator designed for physics teachers and students. To copy a trajectory, the user chooses the initial velocity (magnitude and guidance), the vertical displacement component and the gravitational accelera
YP Image is designed to assistance teachers and students when they canvas image formation by mirrors and slim lenses in geometrical optics. The program computes the locating and magnification of the image formed by a spherical mirror or a slim lens, and
YP Reflection is designed to attend teachers and students when they examine the laws of reflexion in geometrical optics. The program provides the user with a laser source that derriere be moved and rotated, and with a turgid quantity of mirrors that derriere be
YP Circular simulates an object in uniform broadside question and/or an object in unproblematic harmonic question. Both motions (broadside and harmonic) may be animated simultaneously to appearance that the uniform broadside question is a combination of two unproblematic harmon
YP DC Circuits allows you to chassis a virtual electric circuit including batteries, resistors and switches, and measure currents and voltages with an ammeter and a voltmeter. The circuit tin be copied, printed or saved as a PICT file. What's New: Ver
YP Vectors is a instruction tool for the physics classroom. It displays a vector in two dimensions, and its two components. The user terminate change the magnitude and the instruction of the vector using the mouse. A window shows the numerical rate of the mag
YP Magnetic Force is a commandment tool for the physics classroom. It simulates the magnetic force exerted on a particle moving in a magnetic field. The user prat change the electric saddle, the velocity and the magnetic field. The three vectors velocit
YP Refraction is a instrument to see all nigh the refraction of ignite (Snell's law) in geometrical optics. The program provides a laser source that can be moved around a prism. Six different prisms are available: a elementary frontier between two media of
YP Gear has been designed for the take of gear trains. This Macintosh software simulates the motion of a gear train composed of 2, 3 or 4 gears. The user controls the size of each gear.
