Learning Objectives

At the end of this simulation, you will be able to:

Clarify the concepts of potential and kinetic energy.
Provide a definition of mechanical energy and articulate its principle of conservation.
Apply the principle of mechanical energy conservation, along with its mathematical representation, to forecast the motion of an object within a frictionless environment.
Modify components within an isolated system to manipulate the overall mechanical energy of a moving object and observe the alterations in both kinetic and potential energies as the object traverses the system.

How do virtual labs work?

Enhance students' involvement in science by immersing them in interactive learning scenarios. Create simulations for experiments, provide hands-on training in laboratory techniques, and convey theoretical concepts through captivating visual experiences to improve their overall long-term learning outcomes.

Access web-based simulations that are compatible with laptops, Chromebooks, tablets, and iPads, eliminating the need for software installation.
Incorporate a teacher dashboard for automated grading and monitoring of student progress.
Utilize embedded quizzes to assist students in mastering scientific content.
Comprehensive repository of educational materials, including learning resources, lab reports, videos, theory pages, graphics, and more.
