− | ==== Pre-requisites ====
| |
− |
| |
− | Availability of computer, projector, simulation
| |
| | | |
− |
| |
− | Prior discussion on forms of energy
| |
− |
| |
− |
| |
− | ==== Method: ====
| |
− |
| |
− | Use the PhET simulation Pendulum Lab.
| |
− |
| |
− |
| |
− | For this we will need to open an application called PhET on the
| |
− | computer. You can find PhET under Applications> Education>
| |
− | Science. PhET is an educational resource that contains computer
| |
− | demonstrations of experiments and activities. When we click on Play
| |
− | with sims – it will open simulations in various subjects. We will
| |
− | click on Physics and scroll down to the simulation on Pendulum Lab.
| |
− |
| |
− |
| |
− | When we want to open a simulation, we click on the green
| |
− | rectangle which says “Run Now”.
| |
− |
| |
− |
| |
− | After running the simulation show the following video
| |
