Description
Measure the height and velocity of two objects connected by a massless rope over a pulley. Observe the forces acting on each mass throughout the simulation. Calculate the acceleration of the objects, and relate these calculations to Newtons Laws of Motion. The mass of each object can be manipulated, as well as the mass and radius of the pulley.
