Charging by Induction Simulation
Using this simulation, you can experience the phenomenon of charging a metallic ball by induction in the first stage and charging the ball by contact in the second stage after the charged rod touches the ball. The displayed charges are for an illustrational purpose, and they are not seen in reality. You can disable the display of charges on the rod and on the ball.
In this simulation, you can try two situations, one in which the rod is positively charged and another in which the rod is negatively charged, and you will see that the two situations result in the same observation.

Virtual Oscilloscope is Now Mobile-Friendly!
This time I have updated Virtual Oscilloscope so it is now mobile-friendly. Long-press any button, knob, or slider and it will scale up to become comfortable enough for your touch so you can control it comfortably using your mobile device.
I also optimized the code to perform smoothly on mobile devices.
One-Dimensional Elastic Collision Simulation
Using this simulation, you can demonstrate the conservation laws in a one-dimensional elastic collision (The law of conservation of linear momentum and the law of conservation of kinetic energy).
