THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF FORCES AND MOTION
by Roland Cheng
FORCES AND MOTION EXPERIMENTS
The following experiments demonstrate some of the physical properties related to "Forces and Motion" (more specifically, "The Force of Friction"). Please be patient as these files load (these are .doc files, thus it may require some time to open Microsoft Word within the browser).
- Experiment 1 (The Force of Friction - horizontal surface)
- Experiment 2 (The Force of Friction - horizontal surface extended)
- Experiment 3 (The Force of Friction - inclined surface)
- Experiment 4 (The Force of Friction - inclined surface extended)
FORCE OF GRAVITY: The Game
This game uses the physics principles of the unit of "Forces and
Motion" (more specifically, "Acceleration and the Force of
Gravity"). Written in Pascal, the questions involved include the equations
for uniformly accelerated motion - more in detail in "Introduction".
To fully appreciate the construction of the program, I have provided, along with the converted executable (.exe) file (which is run to play the game), the original Pascal programme saved with the extension .p to allow the user to view what has been done with the code and to enter their own questions with ease. Thus,
you must install a Pascal compiler (found on this site).
