Required Practical – Simulation of Force and Extension

Use the simulation of a Newton metre in your science or Physics class to illustrate elastic potential energy and Hooke’s law. It’s a 3D interactive of the AQA GCSE Physics required practical on force and extension (Hooke’s law). Pupils work through the real procedure on a virtual lab bench: clamp a spring to a retort […]

Required Practical -Simulation of specific heat capacity

What the simulation is A 3D interactive of the AQA GCSE required practical for specific heat capacity of a metal, built in Three.js and styled in the ClassAdapt house style with the full Adapt accessibility suite. Students assemble the apparatus step by step, run a ten-minute heating experiment, then calculate c from their own readings.

Simulation of Friction, lubrication – Piston in an engine cylinder

Simulation of piston sliding back and forth inside an engine cylinder This simulation shows a piston sliding back and forth inside an engine cylinder, demonstrating how lubrication reduces friction. A blue arrow on the left shows the driving force pushing the piston; red arrows on the piston show friction resisting its motion each stroke. Three

Simulation of Friction, lubrication using a crate

Simulation of Friction, lubrication using a crate This interactive GCSE Physics simulation shows how lubrication reduces friction between surfaces. As you increase lubrication, the friction force drops, so less energy is transferred to the thermal store (less heating/heat trail) and more of the work done by the push goes into the object’s kinetic energy (it
