All simulations on Physics Zone have been updated to use a locally hosted version of the CreateJS library instead of an external one. This simple change means:
⚡ Faster loading
✅ More reliable performance
🌐 Better experience on slow connections
CreateJS is the JavaScript library we use to animate and control simulation visuals. Hosting it locally reduces delays and improves speed.
Enjoy the smoother experience—and thank you for using Physics Zone!
This simulation demonstrates the difference between one-dimensional motion along the x-axis and two-dimensional motion using both x- and y-axes in a Cartesian system.
Explore the photoelectric effect with this advanced simulation. Graph photocurrent vs potential and intensity, and kinetic energy vs frequency. Adjust parameters, visualize results, and discover key quantum physics relationships interactively.
This simulation shows how a rotating disk appears under a stroboscope. Adjust rotation speed and flash frequency to observe stationary or slow-motion effects due to stroboscopic illusions.
I updated the graphical user interface for easier interaction and better fitting in the browser. I also optimized the code.
This simulation models Newton’s tube experiment, showing how air resistance affects falling objects. By removing air from the tube and flipping it, users can observe how a feather and a pebble fall differently in air but identically in a vacuum—demonstrating that gravity accelerates all objects equally when air resistance is removed.
Since the frequency of the slow apparent motion in the stroboscope experiment varies depending on various factors that are not taken into consideration in the simulation, an essential change has been made to the code of the Stroboscope Experiment simulation to address the frequency of this apparent motion in the observation remarks.
