Activities

Welcome to the activities page! Here you'll find interactive and hands-on exercises to deepen your understanding of modern classical mechanics.

Sample Activity: Pendulum Lab

• Objective: Explore the motion of a simple pendulum and measure its period.
• Materials: String, weight, stopwatch, ruler.
• Instructions:
  1. Set up a pendulum of known length.
  2. Displace it by a small angle and release.
  3. Measure the time for 10 oscillations.
  4. Calculate the period and compare with theory.

Tip: Try different lengths and plot period vs. length!

Sample Activity: Energy Skate Park (PhET)

• Objective: Investigate conservation of energy using a virtual skate park.
• Link: PhET Energy Skate Park
• Instructions:
  1. Open the simulation and build a track.
  2. Observe kinetic and potential energy as the skater moves.
  3. Experiment with friction and track shapes.
