Highly acclaimed high school physics simulator revolutionizes the physics classroom! Interactive classroom activities are based on Sim-MediaTM, an integrated multimedia editor that combines powerful scientific simulations with user-friendly multimedia authoring techniques.Creating simulated experiments is simple. Just drag the components you need onto the screen, link them together, and watch them spring to life as you draw. Over 100 interactive on-screen lessons, covering a range of subjects in electricity, electronics, optics, mechanics, dynamics and sound, combine full simulation with information, questions and answers. These preprogrammed activities can easily be altered to suit your needs, or you can write your own activities from scratch. Images can be used to link pages together.This program is so simple to use that in no time your students will be creating professional-looking reports that combine simulations, text, diagram, and images! Activities include:Optics: Choose lenses, light sources, and mirrors to conduct reflection, refraction, and wavelength experiments. Electricity: Design circuits. Draw graphs of voltage, current, and charge. Motion and Force: Experiment with gravity, friction, projectile motion, momentum and collisions. Investigate Newton’s Laws. Oscillations: Use masses, springs, and pendulums to study Hooke’s Law and Simple Harmonic Motion. Sound: Discover the effect of frequency, amplitude, and beat on sound waves. Measurement: Add probes to graph a wide variety of quantities. Or simply point the mouse at a component to see values displayed.Available in single user or network format. With the network format, teachers have permission to install one program on an at-home computer (for practice or class preparation) and the remaining programs on at-school computers.
System Requirements: WIN: WIN 95/98/00/ME/NT 3.51+; Pentium processor; 16-bit sound card optional.
MAC: Power Mac 7.0+. Both: 16 MB RAM; CD-ROM drive.
