Boost your Physics Curriculum with powerful motion simulation technology
 The foundations of scientific discovery are imagination and inquisitive ?what if?
curiosity. Interactive Physics makes your students active learners and empowers
them to:
- Explore their physical world through fast-paced exciting simulation
- Visualize the abstract scientific concepts taught in the classroom
- Test hypotheses and investigate ?what if? scenarios
- Learn school-to-career job skills with real-world motion tools
Adopted by more than 12,000 schools worldwide, try Interactive Physics and
see why MacUser magazine named it ?Best Educational Product? several years
running.
Easy and fun to use! Watch Physics in action!
Create new experiments or interact with pre-designed Physics exercises to:
- Measure velocity, acceleration, force, momentum, energy, etc., in metric
or English units
- Create ropes, springs, dampers, pulleys, slot joints, linear actuators,
and rotational motors
- Hear and measure sound volumes, sound frequencies, and Doppler effects
- Vary air resistance, gravity, or material properties
- Create visually appealing presentations by attaching graphics to objects
- View results as numbers, graphs, and animated vectors
Easy Curriculum integration
Interactive Physics allows students to master concepts in a safe environment,
without costly lab supplies and time-consuming lab setup. Your physics lectures
and lab activities will immediately benefit from Interactive Physics!
- Select from a wide range of ready-torun exercises built for your
curriculum
- Rapidly customize existing models to meet your specific needs
