Electricity and Magnetism - Interactive J

Russian Abacus - This tutorial explores how the Russian abacus was once used to do simple arithmetic. By moving a set of beads back and forth across a set of framed wires, the visitor can do use this tutorial to do simple addition and subtraction. Atomic Orbitals - Electrons are distributed around an atom according to probability density distributions. Visitors can use this interactive Java tutorial to observe how combinations of atomic orbitals combine to create an electronic "shell" surrounding the atom. Factors Affecting Capacitance - Capacitors are simple devices designed to store electric charges.

Water waves diffraction

Click on the animation to start the animation and observe wave packet pass through a gap and spread out behind the obstruction. This resource is from the unit Bending Waves which is part of Absorb Physics. The full Absorb Physics course normally sells for £400 - but you can get it free for your school! All you need to do is ask your colleagues in the maths department to try our new Sumdog games... Ripple Tank Simulation. This is a simulation of a ripple tank.

Ripple Tank Simulation

It demonstrates waves in two dimensions, including such wave phenomena as interference, diffraction (single slit, double slit, etc.), refraction, resonance, phased arrays, and the Doppler effect. To get started with the applet, just go through the items in the Example menu in the upper right. You can also draw on the screen with the mouse. The predefined setups are just starting points; you can modify the sources and walls as you desire. Click the 3-D View checkbox to see a 3-D view. Full Directions. Full screen version. This is the WebGL version. Standalone (offline) versions.
