Jake's Physics Things

I have made some visualizations/interactives/simulations to help explain certain physics concepts.

• Oscillator Phase
  Visualizing simple harmonic motion as a mass lined up with a rotating phase circle. Adjustable phase constant and omega.
• Graphing Wave Functions
  Using an animated wave, this visual helps understand the process of making graphs for y(x) and y(t) to illustrate what they mean. To create a y(x) graph you "take a snapshot", and to create a y(t) graph you can select a particle to track.
