Extension summary
This App helps in interactively exploring waves, vibrations, Simple Harmonic Motion and their applications using real time simulations. App includes a total of 23 simulations along with overview and activities in each simulation. (The list of simulations and activities that can be performed on the simulations are given below).
If the app is needed for iPad, please visit - https://itunes.apple.com/us/developer/ravindra-kompella/id693234511
NOTE : THIS APP IS COMPATIBLE WITH BOTH TOUCH INTERFACE AND MOUSE INTERFACE AND COMPLETELY WORKS OFFLINE.
The simulations are highly touch enabled and are designed game-like so that people would love to play around with the simulations and at the same time can gain a deeper understanding of Science concepts. At the same time these simulations raise the inquisitiveness and help to experiment and find solutions like - "Do you know why you hear the louder sound as an airplane approaches nearer to you? What happens in case of a Mac jet plane? Perform this simulation and its so easy to figure this out yourself!"
You can touch and drag to apply forces and perform various experiments like what happens when two masses are joined by a single spring, resonance, simple pendulum etc.,
The simulation name and the activity that can be done on the simulation are briefed below -
- Types of mechanical waves - pulse,triangular,progressive waves
- Create longitudinal waves - Touch the first particle to set a longitudinal wave. See how such waves are formed.
