Force and motion
Model
4a.1
In this model, you can explore
the behaviour of an
object that is acted on by a constant force. You can change the values
of the mass of the object, its initial velocity and the force acting on
it. The model calculates the acceleration and plots a velocity-time
graph
and a distance-time graph.
Since both F
and m are constants
in this model, and a = F /m
, then a is constant,
and this model is similar to Model 3a.1 which shows the behaviour of an
object with a constant acceleration.
